Category: Elmer Fudd

Anything that had an appearance by the world’s most incompetent hunter. But don’t tell him I said that. Keep it vewy, vewy, quiet.

The Scarlet Pumpernickel

“I’m simply furious!”

If there’s one thing I love, it’s seeing a whole lot of cartoon characters that aren’t usually together, together. That’s why I love this cartoon. It has a great cast: Porky, Daffy, Sylvester, Ma Bear, Henery hawk, and Elmer Fudd. (Interestingly, Fudd was voiced by Mel Blanc, I have no idea why) The humor here doesn’t disappoint either. Its just as funny as any other Looney Tune.

I think I’ve talked about greedy Daffy enough. Its time I moved to my favorite version of him, Daffy Daffy!

Triple feature: Blooper Bunny, My Dream is Yours, Two Guys from Texas

“Gosh, I’m so unimportant.”

Everyone loves triple features right? The first one was for Bugs’ fifty first and a half birthday so its kinda after the time of the classic shorts. The other two both came out in 1949. Bugs made cameos in these movies. As for “Blooper Bunny” it’s possibly one of the funniest thing I ever saw. Sorry to leave you with so little info, but I really want you to experience it for yourself.

The Rabbit of Seville

“Next.”

Now if there’s one thing I love, it’s Looney Tunes set to classical music. Here we have the “Barber of Seville” and unlike other cartoons, where the antics are just set to the music, this one has Bugs and Elmer actually performing along.

If you watch and pay close attention, you will find that in one scene, Bugs has 4 fingers and a thumb. This is because he is drumming out the music on Fudd’s head. As a final note, this cartoon shows us that Elmer may have been bothered about his baldness.

Wabbit Twouble

“West and wewaxation at wast!”

Two words to describe this cartoon: friggin, hilarious. It’s one of those cartoons where Bugs does not need to be heckled; he actually wants to bother Fudd, who is camping in the area. In this short, unless you are a imbecile, you will notice that Elmer is fat. This is because for a brief time Elmer was drawn to resemble his voice actor, Arthur Q. Bryan.

Another reason this is great, is that the title and credits are all written in “Fuddese.” The gags are spectacular! One is Bugs tricking Elmer into thinking it’s night and then morning in only 2 minutes. It takes all my power to remind myself that Elmer has not been there for two days.

What’s up, Doc?

“Oh we’re the boys of the chorus, we hope you like our show, we know you’re rooting for us, but now we have to gooooooooo!”

This is one of the shorts where Bugs tells us of his past. I however find the other one (“A hare grows in Manhattan”) to be the superior one. That aside, this is still worth a watch. This cartoon is great for many reasons, but my favorite is when Bugs (who is out of work) is asked by Elmer to be part of his slapstick comedy after Fudd passes by Al Jolson, Jack Benny, Eddie Cantor, and Bing Crosby. “They’ll never amount to anything”, Fudd says. As always, I hope you are enjoying this place.

Rabbit Seasoning

“I would just love a duck dinner.”

#2 of the hunting trilogy, I love this cartoon simply for its wonderful wordplay. Bugs can get Daffy to shoot himself. The story is simple Elmer is out hunting rabbits because its rabbit season. (or is it?) Daffy leads him to Bugs and hilarity ensues. You really have to watch this one to fully appreciate it words don’t do it justice.
