Comments on "Bugs and Daffy" (3/5/02)

"Napoleon Bunny-Part" (1956):
Bugs battles wits with Napoleon. A very funny cartooon.
One of Freleng's best.
Rating: *****

"All Abir-r-rd" (1950):
Okay, but I kinda feel sorry with Sylvester in this one, he's always
getting beaten up by that bull-dog.
Rating: ***

"The Wise-Quacking Duck" (1943):
An absolute Clampett classsic featuring the ultra-crazy Daffy.
I always liked this classic!
Rating: *****

"To Hare is Human" (1956):
This is another Chuck Jones cartoon featuring Bugs and Wile E. Coyote.
In the cartoon, Wilie E. uses is a giant computer to help him catch Bugs. At the end we find out that the computer "only has one moving part." Verrrry funny!
Rating: ****

"The Leghorn Blows at Midnight" (1950):
One of McKimson's best. In this cartoon, Henry needs help to tell a chicken from a dog, especially with Foghorn Leghorn and Barnyard Dog around the farm.
Rating: ****

"A Peck o' Trouble" (1953):
Dodsworth, attemps to catch a woodpecker for breakfast and has a kitten help him. Okay but not great.
Rating: ***

NAPOLEON BUNNY-PART
An okay effort. The dopey guard steals the show.
3/5


THE WISE-QUACKING DUCK
It's a Clampett cartoon, from 1943, starring the zany Daffy- of COURSE I love it!
5/5


TO HARE IS HUMAN
I'm not to crazy about any of the Bugs/Wile E. cartoon, because the format works better with the RR, and seems too forced on Bugs. The worst, however, is HARE-BREADTH HURRY which is an absolute rip-off of a Road Runner cartoon.
2/5

THE LEGHORN BLOWS AT MIDNIGHT
Another good Foghorn Leghorn cartoon. I especially liked the fight at the end between him and Barnyard Dog, and Henery's last line.
4.5/5

A PECK O' TROUBLE
Okay, but not as good as the first Dodsworth cartoon, KIDDIN' THE KITTEN. Dodsworth should've been made into a recurring character and used a lot more. I always wondered, is that kitten a guy or a girl? One cartoon, the kitten wore a pink bow, and in the next one, it was blue.
3/5

What your comment for "All Abir-r-rd"?

[PorkyandDaffy]

I haven't really payed attention to that cartoon yet, so I can't rate it.

Hey, what was wrong with "Hare Breadth Hurry?" That was one of my favorites.

[PorkyandDaffy]

It's a Road Runner and Coyote cartoon, with Bugs taking the place of the Road Runner, and that idea just does not work out at all. Bugs just keeps talking on and on and on, and there's no point or laughs in the cartoon. They were obviously running out of ideas by 1963.

[Daffyfan2002]

I guess I see what you mean. It doesn't actually have the formula of a Road Runner cartoon. I guess you feel that the Coyote/Bugs cartoons are better when Wile E. talks such as "Operation: Rabbit." I guess I liked the gags in "Hare Breadth Hurry," such as the phone gag and having the coyote get swallowed by a whale.
