![]() ![]() This one The Marriage of Figaro and The Barber of Seville. There is a meme that floats around the internet that says “All I know about classical music, I learned from Bugs Bunny!” This is one of a few cartoons that feature classical music. How can you not love Bugs taking over for the Square Dance Caller and having these two hillbillies beat the snot out of each other? “I pull your beard, you pull mine” Love the Errol Flynn cameo at the end, too! When the Sheriff of Nottingham starts singing London Bridge is Falling Down … I lose it every time! Who can forget when the Sheriff is Knighted? Arise “Sir Loin of Beef” (BANG) Arise “Earl of Cloves” (BANG) Arise “Duke of Brittingham” (BANG) Arise Baron of Munchausen” (BANG) Arise “Essence of Myrrh” (BANG) Arise “Milk of Magnesia” (BANG) …… Bugs squares off against the Sheriff of Nottingham in this one. I told him that this was definitely on my list of favorites. My buddy John posted a picture from this on my Facebook page today. I wonder how they looped that note for so long!! “What do they do in Mississippi, where skies are drippy?” He destroys all the instruments, but Bugs get’s even at the end. As he is singing, he begins to sing along with Bugs who is playing a banjo, a harp, a tuba, etc… Needless to say, he is angry. Giovanni Jones is practicing at home for his concert. Remember how Bugs drove Steve Brody crazy enough to jump off the Brooklyn Bridge? So many great gags in this one, including “Curtains” and “Gimme the dough.” When Bugs comes in as “Mugsy” flipping a coin like George Raft, it kills me. What is great about this short is that Rocky is a direct copy of Edward G. This was remade in 1954 as Bugs and Thugs with a VERY different Rocky. Who can forget the 96-95 win that Bugs chocked up against the Gashouse Gorillas? Here there are (mostly) in chronological order: I won’t go into many details on all of these, but if someone were to ask me which Bugs Bunny Cartoons were a “must see” this is my list. ![]() I had to look up the titles, but I remember them all so well. Off the top of my head I jotted down my favorite Bugs Bunny Cartoons. Other’s included Yosemite Sam, Daffy Duck, Pete Puma, Wile E. Bugs and Elmer – A Wild Hare (1940)Įlmer was one of many who faced off against Bugs over the years. ![]() It was one of many appearances with Elmer Fudd. Bugs Bunny is 81 today!
