Looney Tunes "Baseball Bugs" Review



Alone with Mickey Mouse Bugs Bunny is perhaps the most well known cartoon character in the world and he is still gong strong to this very day. With him appearing in movies and TV shows every few years in either major or minor roles with there being perhaps one cartoon of his that isn't as well remembered and it's that very cartoon that i'm going to be talking to you all about today and so then join me as i review the cartoon that sees Bugs take on entire baseball tea by himself with the cartoon in question being called simply just "Baseball Bugs" enjoy.

The plot of this cartoon is when when he accidentally challenges a ruthless baseball team to a match Bugs has to take them on all by his self. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. This cartoon is rather light on plot and while this is something that does make sense as these cartoon didn't typically last longer then ten minuets it still would have been nice if there was more of a plot to this cartoon as outside of the basic premise and set up there's nothing to this cartoons plot that makes it feel unique. Heck we don't even get to find why Bugs is in New York in the first place with the cartoon starting with him already there and while granted this isn't something that effects the plot all that much it would have been nice to find out why he was there like maybe he's a sports fans and just wanted to watch some Baseball something like that which yes while it is simple it's simple enough for it work in this cartoons plot however to be fair tho the plot of this cartoon works as well as it does because of the fact that it's simple we don't need to know why the opposing team are bullies we just need to see them bulling people much like how we don't need to know why Bugs is there in the first place we just need to see him there and with the plot being as simple as it is it does allow for there to alot more jokes as the cartoon now won't have to stop the plot to tell a joke with the plot of this cartoon also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this cartoon is The Man Called Flintstone star Mel Blanc as Bugs Bunny , A Tea Totaller , The Umpire , A Gas-House Gorilla and The Second Sportscaster and The Three Caballeros star Frank Graham as A Sportscaster and Lead Gas-House Gorilla. Also starring in this cartoon is Tedd Pierce as First Sportscaster and The Flintstones , The Jetsons , Top Cat and Peter Loves Mary star Bea Benaderet as The Statue of Liberty.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. The fact that this cartoon only has four actors is for a Looney Tunes cartoon quite a good thing as these cartoons typically have at the very least no more then two people doing alot of the voices and yet here we get four really good actors in one cartoon with three of them playing multiple characters and while Bea Benaderet only appears at the very end of the cartoon you can still tell that it her doing the voice and she is still really good in this cartoon. With the best actor in this cartoon being of course Mel Blanc this was something that was always going to be the case as Mel was and still is the best voice actor there and cartoon like this one only serve to pint point that fact as here he has multiple characters which means he has to create multiple voices and make them all sound different and unique enough from each other and still turn in a good performance with this being something that he does so easily that he makes it seem like Child's Play with his own natural charm and charisma really coming through in this cartoon. With the acting that's in this very cartoon really being helped by the fact that this cartoons script is just so good that all this cartoons actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance really will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very cartoon.


Doing the animation for this cartoon is the legends and the greats that are Manuel Perez , Ken Champin , Virgil Ross and Gerry Chiniquy. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. The cartoons animation even for the time this cartoon was released in is still really good with the makers of this cartoon pulling some really impressive shots that even today would be hard to do and yet here they are in the mid forties doing really good forced perspective shots with a tree that one of the baseball team decides to use as a bat and it looks really good. Is this the best animated Looney Tunes cartoon no there are others that are better animated even going to back to the thirties as there are alot of details missing from the background and some of the crowd shots do look dull but this is also due to the fact that the cartoon just has the one setting and therefor the makers of this cartoon can't go as overboard as they normally would do and yet when they do have some really good looking animation be it in a shot or a character facial expression or or movement it is something that does stand out and it is something that does remind of you of just why alot of the Looney Tunes directions are legends in the world of animation as even in this cartoon you do see all of the care and love that has gone into each and every single frame of animation which is something that you don't really get to see all that much in more modern 3D CGI animated shows and movies.


Alot of the foes that Bugs does sometimes face are usually dimwitted characters that don't usually know that there getting on his nerves and those that do have something about them that makes them villains that you want to route for. Whereas here the villains are the team Gas-House Gorillas and to be frank here they are noting more then bullies as we do see them not only bully the team at the start of the cartoon that being a a tea of old men called The Tea Totallers but they also bully the umpire when he gives them a call that doesn't go there where with this being the very thing that forces Bugs to action as he gets angry about there tactics and without realising it challenges them to a match him against all of them and they accept. With them even trying there tactics on Bugs by abusing the Umpire and trying and bully Bugs these are things that do make them really hateful villains as while there is nothing to them as characters the fact that they nothing more then bullies is all that was needed to make us hate them and make us want to see Bugs win the day something which he thankfully does do by stopping them getting a homerun and yet these characters aren't as scary as they perhaps should have been as it would have made them be all the more scary if we did get to see them not only try to but also succeed in bulling Bugs ad get it to the point where he has to try and outwit them much like he would say Daffy Duck or Yosemite Sam for example rather then just having Bugs go on the offensive and win the day as all this ends up doing is making them look like weak villains and whilst this might have been the idea behind the characters it still makes them look like weak villains and heck given the fact that they are named after the Gashouse Gang which was a nickname for the St. Louis Cardinals why not have them borrow something that they might have done and have there uniforms be smelly and disgusting and have Bugs put on a mask of some kind.

This cartoon is to be real here a forgettable cartoon as not all that much happens in the cartoon itself with the cartoon just being nothing more then an excuse for the makers of this film cartoon to show of the fact that alot of them like baseball. Which is fine but it doesn't make the cartoon all that interesting as the second we see Bugs Bunny in the cartoon we know exactly how it's going to play out and sure enough everything that you think would happen does end up happening and because of that the cartoon doesn't really have all that much going for it with even the fact that the villains just aren't that interesting or fun villains for Bugs to go against as Bugs is at his best when he has to outwit his opponent and this is something that he can't do here as the second he appears in the cartoon he's right away on the offensive and is only put into one situation where he has to use his wits and it turns out to be one of the best scenes in the cartoon. There is really no way to make a cartoon like this one work it's current premise as you'd always run into the same issues with the villains and with the characters but it's something that could work if there was a age one re-write of the whole cartoon as the idea of Bugs taking on a team of some sort is good enough idea to carry a whole cartoon like maybe instead of them being these thugs who bully the opposite teams maybe there a team doesn't know that there getting on Bugs's last nerve with Bugs then challenging them to a match out of eagerness to get them to stop whatever it is that there doing only for it to turn that there actually good at baseball therefor Bugs has to think outside the box and use his wits to get them to loose the match with them getting more angry the more he succeeds in doing so. 


Whilst this cartoon does get alot of things wrong it does get somethings right like the fact we do get to see Bugs just being his cool and confident self which is always a delight to see. The other thing being the fact that the villains in this cartoon are so over the top and so cartoonishly evil with them being huge hulking brutes who no only all look the same but also smoke cigars these are things that you could only get away with in cartoon from this time frame and to be fair here this cartoon does have alot of fun with these villains as we do get to see them use several methods to try and outwit Bugs with each and every one of them failing in one form or another all of which are things that do make you wonder why these characters weren't brought back as lower tier villains not just for Bugs but for any hero Looney Tunes character. As while yes it would have been redundant to have a character entera baseball game every single time there being used as villains but these characters don't just need to be a baseball they could be any group of people that you want and as long as you keep them as bullies and thugs they would still work and while granted they won't be as memorable as say Elmer Fudd they'll still be better then Nasty Canasta who suffers from the same thing that these character suffer from in that there's only so much that you can do with them but here tho due to the fact that there is more of them you could get these characters into more roles as villains and just have alot of fun with them which is something that this cartoon sadly doesn't take full advantage of as they instead just have them get beaten at every possible chance by Bugs.

Now then this cartoon has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly seven minuets and thirty six seconds. This is pretty much the bogstanderd running time for Looney Tunes cartoons and to fair to this cartoon this is a cartoon that really doesn't need to be that long as there's nothing all that much to this cartoon's plot outside of the basic premise of the short and that's it and heck you could have cut this cartoon down to about about five minuets and nothing of value would need to be cut out of the cartoon as there's nothing that's in this cartoon as it is that's important to either it's plot or it's jokes as there's just nothing to this cartoon at all with this cartoon just about having the right amount of plot there to cover that amount of running time in the first place. If we're being honest here this cartoon doesn't use its running time all that wisely as the cartoon doesn't take the rime to fully develop its plot as the cartoon just has this basic set up and seems to be scared of adding in important details like why Bugs is watching this game in the first place which is key to the plot of the cartoon as without that reason Bugs shouldn't be here in the cartoon at all with the makers of this cartoon putting more thought and effort into the villains character designs then they did into the cartoons plot development. With the same thing also being true for the cartoons character development which is something that could also be true for alot of the other Looney Tunes cartoons as well but here it is something that did need to be addressed even if it was just for this one cartoon it would have been nice to see the villains get some kind of character development even if it's just for a joke as Bugs Bunny doesn't need it and infact it could be argued works better without character development but the one off characters will always need character development and yet the makers of this cartoon put alot more thought and effort into the cartoons comedy then they did into giving its characters some character development but I really will admit this this cartoon really does have some really good pacing to it tho. 


So now then as this is a comedy that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy tats actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good/. To be honest here the cartoons comedy is perhaps where the cartoon does shine its best as while it isn't filled with the typical funny Looney Tunes word play it does have some really funny slapstick moments and seeing the bullies try these over the top ways to beat Bugs is pretty funny to see in its own right as we get to see some good gags be it Bugs distracting one of them with  picture of an attractive woman to one of them getting killed after saying he's got it with his tombstone even saying he got it bottom line being there are alot of jokes to be found in this cartoon. With the best one being the third act of the cartoon as that whole third act is where things get really over the top be it from one of the villains hitting a homerun by using a tree for a bat with Bugs then chasing the ball all through New York and encountering ne of the villains as his cab driver all of which comes to head when bugs finally catches the ball on top of a building with the umpire calling one of the villains out which then gets the statue of liberty to get involved and agree with the umpire, the whole third act is just one insane and over the top thing after another and it is something that really does work with the rest of the cartoons jokes being just as good as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall whilst this isn't the worst Bugs Bunny or Looney Tunes cartoon out there it is still a pretty bad and forgettable cartoon as outside of the jokes there's nothing that's all that memorable in the cartoon itself with it just being a cartoon that has nothing all that worth while in it in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very cartoon in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very cartoon really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as fore where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , LooneyTunesWiki . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very cartoon that I used in this very post being the really great Google Images really simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very cartoon with alot of them really being really better quality then what you'd really think of and all of the images are really of course up and really on Google Images really are also really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition and there's really only one way to end this review T-T-T-T-THAT'S ALL FOLKS.

Looney Tunes "Tweet Tweet Tweety" Review



When people think of famous cartoon duos one of the duos that nearly alot of people think of is Sylvester and Tweety. With it not really being that hard to see why as the characters are pretty much just Tom And Jerry but instead of it being a cat and a mouse and it's now a cat and a bird and well by happenstance I was watching one of there cartoons the over day and thought that this would make a great review and so join me as I review the cartoon that sees Sylvester get squashed by a tree with the cartoon in question being called simply just "Tweet Tweet Tweety" enjoy.

The plot of this cartoon is Tweety has to try to fend of a hungry Sylvester all the while The Park Ranger is trying to stop Sylvester from eating Tweety. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. Whilst yes this cartoons plot is really thin this is something that could be the case for alot of the Looney Tunes cartoon as alot of them just have the basic set up and that's really it and to be fair that's all that this cartoon needs it just needs the set up of why these characters are chasing each other. It would be like if people complained that the Tom And Jerry cartoons had little plot it just wouldn't be right as alot of the fun of not only those cartoons but also this cartoon is seeing the characters hurt each other and whilst having a more stronger plot line would always get in the way of that sometimes having a more thinly drawn out plot where you just have the basic set up and nothing more then that works just as well as that then allows for the characters to be there natural fun and charming selves, which is something that a more stronger plot could get in the way off as the cartoon would have to stop the comedy moments to move forward a plot and while characters like Bugs and Daffy for example can get away with having more plot driven cartoons Sylvester and Tweety can't as there whole deal is Sylvester getting hurt in more out landish ways and whilst yes granted this cartoon would work just as well if it did have a more stronger plot as we don't even find out why Sylvester is at the park in the first place it's also something that wasn't needed to make the cartoon work as a whole with the plot of this cartoon also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.



Starring in this cartoon is the great Mel Blanc as all of the characters altho this time he is joined by another actor who isn't listed on IMDB. With Mel being in more of the cartoon as he voices Sylvester , Tweety and The Park Ranger and yet even knowing that was doing all of the male characters voices barring Elmer Fudd at this time you really can't tell that they are all being played by the actor as all of them do have very distinct voices to them altho to be fair there is a little bit of Yosemite Sam in the voice of The Park Ranger which is something is oddly perfect for that character as the character is meant to have a commanding almost explosive voice to him, there for having a slight Yosemite Sam voice does match with that character and while it would have been great to have another actor in a major role in this cartoon your never going to top what Mel can and does do with these truly iconic characters. The voices for both Sylvester and Tweety work so well as like the voice of The Park Ranger they have voices that fit there characters with Sylvester having a voice that is a little bit more rough round the edges if you will with almost being like a Daffy Duck type of voice even down to both of them spitting but it's a voice that your never going to confuse with Daffy's and with Tweet he has a voice that is a little bit more softer and is more baby like in nature think of it as being like the voice of a baby bird if it was real and you pretty much have Tweety's voice voice down perfectly and while it can be seen as being to cute ad wholesome for some it is a voice that does fit with this character and this is something that Mel Blanc was very good at doing as he always knew just what kind of voice to give his characters and it's a skill that does work in this cartoon.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. The fact that this cartoon does have some really good actin in it is something that is not really all that surprising as anyone who has seen any one of the classic Looney Tunes shorts will tell you that Mel Blanc was a really good actor and therefor of course he will be good in this cartoon as he originated these characters and gave them each a voice therefor he would of course no how best to perform as each character. It does go without saying as he is the only credited actor in this cartoon but the best actor in this cartoon is quite easily Mel Blanc as even tho the whole cartoon is just him talking to himself all of the time you never really get that impression as alot of the time you are just engaged with his performance as these characters with this being something that does make alot of sense as he did originate these characters and was the only voice of them for decades and yet even so he still does give them alot of energy with it being pretty obvious that he did have alot of fun in making this cartoon and the amount of fun and care that he put into giving the characters life in the first place is still there in this cartoon and that is something that does make his performance in this cartoon all the more fun to watch in the first place with that level of fun and energy being something that really does come through in his final performance. With the acting that's in this very cartoon really being helped by the fact that this cartoons script is just so good that all this cartoons actor has to do is just say the lines as they are they are written and a good performance will come out of him naturally.


Doing the animation for this cartoon is Ken Champin , Arthur Davis , Manuel Perez , Virgil Ross and Harry Love. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. This is something that is kind of to be expected alot of the Looney Tunes cartoons from this era having some really nice looking animation to them and while characters movements in this cartoon aren't as fluid as they perhaps could have been the animation on the whole was of a really high quality. The thing that really stood out tho from an animation point of view was the backgrounds by Paul Julian as these do look like backgrounds that you'd want to see in a feature length animated film as they look good heck they look better then alot of the backgrounds in todays cartoons as there is some life in these backgrounds and they aren't just bland and generic ones that we see today with all of the background in this cartoon looking like that they could belong in a painting as they just look that good this is not to take away from the rest of the cartoons animation tho as even tho the characters movements aren't as fluid as they could have bee when it comes to animating the cartoons jokes that is where the animation really does work as they get the timing right on all of the jokes with this being something that does make what could have been seen as a being a really fully joke now land hard because of the fact that the makers of this cartoon took the time to animate those extra few seconds that they needed to make it work in the first place.


As was stated at the start of this review this cartoon like alot of the Sylvester and Tweety cartoons are basically just Warner Bros answer to the older Tom And Jerry cartoons. As both cartoon feature a cat chasing a small rodent in this case to eat him and in the case of Tom And Jerry it's either to eat him or to get him out of the house with the smaller rodent getting revenge and outwitting the bigger animal in more funny and cartoonish ways with the only difference being the fact that while this cartoon doesn't really show that much of the violence or at the very least the more violent acts Tom And Jerry would show those acts and yet at the same time even tho you don't get to see the pin hitting Sylvester you know that it's happened. This is something that des make you wonder if MGM knew full well that they were good as well ripping of Tom And Jerry as it is quite obvious once you watch this cartoon that that's what there doing and while they aren't mean about it as they never make fun of Tom And Jerry it is something that once you notice it you can't unsee it and while ripping of Tom And Jerry does make alot of sense as they were quite big characters at the time it also does make you wonder why Warner Bros decided to rip them of instead of thinking up of an original idea as that is something that would have made this cartoon stand out a little bit more and while the cartoon isn't harmed by being a Tom And Jerry ripoff it would have helped all the more of they tried to find a new and creative idea for the Sylvester and Tweety characters as they could have done something like having Tweety being the villain by having his smaller self be a way to trick people into doing what he wants and when he comes up against Sylvester Tweety can't trick up and Sylvester ends up getting his own back in comical ways or they could have had Sylvester trying to sell off Tweety yes it's not a good idea but it is still an original idea.

This cartoon was actually alot more better then what it really cold have been as while the episode does have a rather simple plot. The cartoon isn't held back by that rather it's pushed forward by it as not all cartoons need to have these deep plots as alot of the time they just need to be vehicles for the jokes with that being something that is very much the case with this cartoon as this cartoon is allowed to be all the more fun and funny due to the fact that there less of a focus on plot and more of a focus on comedy and while the cartoon isn't as violent as the typical Tom And Jerry cartoon is heck you might even say that this cartoon is a more kid friendly version of a Tom And Jerry cartoon but it doesn't really need to be that violent it just needs to be funny and that's it. That being said tho there are some bad things to be found in the cartoon like for the example the cartoon never really takes the time to explain why The Park Ranger wants Sylvester to not eat Tweety in the first place which is something that the cartoon really could have explained as that is kind of a key plot point in the episode with the cartoon also never explaining why Sylvester is at the park in the first place it just starts out with him being there and while the cartoon doesn't need to explain why he was there in the first it is something that would have made sense as it could have tied into The Park Ranger as for all we could know Sylvester is there working at the park in the first place both of these are things that the cartoon could have explained with the first one being explained just by having a sign saying don't the birds and the second one could be explained by having Sylvester in a park rangers uniform, while yes granted the cartoon isn't harmed by them not explaining these things as they are small issues that don't harm the cartoon on the whole they are still things that could have been addressed by the makers of this cartoon in the first place as they would have made the cartoon itself be all the more tighter.


To give the cartoon some more credit we do get to see just how far Sylvester is willing to go for his launch. Die too the fact that when he first sees Tweety's egg unhatched he decides to hatch it himself by sitting on it which is a good idea as it does show us that he is willing to go to extreme lengths just to get some breakfast or lunch yet it is the only smart thing that he does in the cartoon with Sylvester not really being the smartest in the episode which fair enough was always going to be the case as it was done in service of the jokes but there still could have been some effort to show being a smart of Wile Coyote was in his first cartoon as that would make his down fall be all the more funny and while he was never the smartest tool in the shed Sylvester never really knows when to give up either. This is somethin that again we see all throughout the cartoon and its something that really does work for the cartoon as it does allot for some pretty fun and unique visuals and while of course we know that he will never eat Tweety the fact that he does so close to doing exactly that several times in this one cartoon alone doe show us the audience that he is a a solid if goofy villain that is perfect for Tweety as of course he'd always want to get away from me and heck thinking on it Tweety is the only character that someone like Sylvester could work with as you can't pair him up with Bugs as Bugs would be demolish him in seconds flat and you can't pair him up with any of the other bigger Looney Tunes characters either as the character just isn't that strong but if you pair him with Tweety that's when you get to this character at his best and that is something that does nearly always result in comedy gold from not only him but Tweety as well as they both get something out of the partnership.

Now then this cartoon has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly seven minuets and two seconds. Which to be fair to this cartoon was pretty much the bogstandard running time for alot of cartoon from around this same time period and to be fair this episode really doesn't need to be that long in the first place as the cartoons plot doesn't really require a longer running time rather it just needs to do the bare minimum and et the characters themselves do the rest ad that is something that this cartoon does to perfectly and the cartoon is alot more better because of it as it allows for the characters to be there usual fun selfs with the cartoon having more then enough there interms of plot to really cover that amount of time in the first place. Yet even taking this into account the cartoon still really doesn't use it's running time all that wisely as the cartoon doesn't take the time to fully develop it's plot which granted is something that would have been hard to do without doing a complete rewrite of the cartoons script but it's not impossible as the cartoon could have added things to the plot that might seem small at first like for example maybe Tweety has a mother who flies away at the start of the cartoon and then comes back at the end just to hit Sylvester on the head if she sees him trying to eat her son which it's not much but it still would have been something at the very least but even so it would have been hard to give this cartoon that much plot development without going on the seven minuet run time with it being made clear as day that the makers of this cartoon bout alot more thought and effort into giving us some funny Sylvester visuals then they did a well thought out plot. This is something that does also effect the cartoons character development which is understandable as these cartoon run on sitcom logic where everything is reset at the end of the cartoon and the characters don't get development in the cartoon even if it is just for that one cartoon but it still would have helped if we did get to see the characters get some small amount of character development and yet due to the fact the makers of this film out there focus on quite literally anything else in the cartoon it does mean that neither Tweety nor Sylvester get any kind of character development but I really will admit that this very cartoon really does have some really good pacing to it tho.


So now then as this is a comedy that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. With the cartoons jokes being really painfully funny and heck the cartoon is worth watching just for the jokes as they are where the cartoon really does shine it's brightest with the makers of the cartoon really making it clear that they took the time to animate the cartoons jokes as well as they could have done and because of that we got alot of funny jokes in this cartoon. With the best joke in the whole cartoon being when Sylvester has Tweety captured in a geyser which is set to go off at any minuet with the cat moving the clock back about twenty minuets in the hopes of catching Tweety with Tweety getting out of it just before Sylvester jumps in after him and move the clock to exactly when it's about to blow with the water elevating Sylvester up into the air and whilst yes fair enough it's not the smartest joke out there but that's exactly why it works so well in the first place as he joke is just so dumb and childlike in nature that you can't help but laugh at it and whilst there are alot of other better written jokes in this cartoon this one doesn't need to be well written to get a laugh it just needs it's dumb set up and that's really it and that is more then enough to make this joke a really good joke in this really funny cartoon with the rest of the cartoons jokes being jut as well as in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Overall this a cartoon that is really worth watching not only if you love either the Tom Ad Jerry cartoons or the Looney Tunes cartoons or even both for that matter but also if you love cartoons that are actually funny as this is a cartoon that does have alot of really good jokes in it that that make the cartoon all the mor fun to watch in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very cartoon in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very cartoon really does earn itself a grand old score exactly an 8 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in tis very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from LooneyTunesWiki . Com , Wikipedia . Amazon . Co . Uk and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very cartoon that I used in this very post being the really great Google Images really simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very cartoon with alot of them really being really better quality then what you'd really think of and all of the images are really of course up and really on Google Images really are also really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition and there's really only one way to end this review T-T-T-T-THAT'S ALL FOLKS.

Looney Tunes "Deduce, You Say!" Review



When you think of Looney Tunes you usually think of zany and wacky comedy yet they did also dip there toes into parodying other things. With Bugs Bunny starring in spoofs of Red Riding Hood among other things therefor it wasn't out of the blue to discover that they also really did a parody of Sherlock Holmes and well with the new Enola Holmes films out next week I thought that now was the right time to take a look at this classic cartoon and so then join me as I review the cartoon that sees Daffy Duck take on the role of Dorlock Holmes with the cartoon in question being called simply just "Deduce, You Say!" enjoy.

The plot of this cartoon is the great duck detective and his pig companion take on there most dangerous mission yet when they get from the infamous The Shropshire Slasher. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. With the cartoons plot being a really fun plot and one that you can very easily picture being filled to the brim with classic Looney Tunes characters should there have been sequel to to it however tho the plot of this cartoon is about as basic as it gets. Which is fair enough given the fact that the Looney Tunes cartoons never really ran longer then eight minuets and therefor they did have to go the more basic route with there plots alot of the time but at the same time when your spoofing something like Sherlock Holmes then basic isn't going to be good as you do need to go the extra mile in making the plot of the cartoon feel alot more different then the plots of the average Daffy Duck or even Porky Pig cartoon for example however tho going the more simple route is something that does work for te Looney Tunes brand as it does allow them to pack in more jokes and just to have fun with the story which is something that they wouldn't be able to do if the plot of this cartoon was even a little bit more complex, the plot of this cartoon whilst it doesn't stay true to the world that Arthur Conan Doyle created it is a world that does very much belong to the Looney Tunes with the cartoon plot fitting in rather nicely in this regard with the plot of this cartoon also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this cartoon is Mel Blanc as Daffy Duck / Dorlock Homes , Porky Pig / Dr. Watkins , The Shropshire Slasher , The Telegram Deliveryman , Alfie and The Bartender and June Foray as The Shropshire Slasher's Mother and Lady Ashtabula. This cartoon dies have two of the three best Looney Tunes actors in it and my god can you tell that they had fun making this cartoon as while alot of the cartoon is just Mel Blanc talking to himself which is the case for alot of the Looney Tunes it's when we get to see hm June Foray that we get to hear just how much both of them are having in this cartoon. As they do have some really good chemistry together with June of course playing all of the female characters in the cartoon and Mel playing all of the male characters in the cartoon but even so you do get the feeling that Mel was just happy to have someone to bounce off of in the studio as usually it was just him with him accusationally being joined by Arthur Q Bryan which again does hit home the point that he must have been really happy to have someone literally anyone in the recording booth with him as it must have been hard for him to record alot of these cartoons just on his own but even so you don't really get the feeling that he was missing just talking to another person in this cartoon as you can't tell that it was just him playing all of these characters as he makes all of the cartoon characters sound so unique and different from each other and while we do of course know the voices for both Daffy and Porky the fact that he does go the extra mile and give even these one shot characters there own unique voices is something that does make it easier to tell just whom is talking to who and when and while June doesn't play as many characters she again gives both of her characters unique sounding voices that your not going to confuse for say Granny for example.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. The fact that this cartoons acting was as good as it is isn't something that's all new as all you have to is look at whom is starring in this cartoon to know full well that we are going to be getting some really good acting and this is something that we get in this cartoon and it is something that will never be a bad thing as you never just what kind of performance that both Mel Blanc and June Foray will bring in given cartoon. With the best actor in this cartoon being of course Mel Blanc just die to the fact that does voice the overall majority of the characters in this cartoon and with each and every one of them he does give us a unique performance with this being something that would be hard for even voice actors today to do and yet him it almost feels natural almost as if he'd been voicing these characters for decades as he is just so natural playing them and while that is of course true for both Daffy Duk and Porky Pig it's also true for all f the one off characters as well with this being something that des make him stand out as a voice actor as he never just does a silly voice and call it a day he puts on a performance and this is something that does shine through in his performance in this cartoon. With the acting that's in very cartoon really being helped by the fact that this cartoons script is just so good that all this cartoons actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very cartoon.


Doing the animation for this cartoon is Abe Levitow , Richard Thompson , Ken Harris and Ben Washam. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. Look granted all of the Chuck Jones directed Looney Tunes cartoon do have some really good animation in them and whilst this cartoon is of no exception to this rule one can't help but notice that the animation in this cartoon is not up to the high standards set by cartoons like Robin Hood Daffy or Duck Amuck for example. As while the characters do have some really nice fluid movements to them and while the cartoon does get a lot f mileage out of Porky's expressions the backgrounds in the cartoon do look very flat and uninteresting and the designs of all of the background characters do look really weird and almost off putting this is something is never an issue with other Looney Tunes cartoons and very here it is something that does seem to be all over the cartoon, with Chuck Jones you do have the expectation that the animation quality will be really high and to this is extent it is still very high quality animation and heck you could even argue that the animation in this cartoon is alot more better then the animation in cartoon released today as here you do get to see all of the blood , sweat and tears that the animators have poored into it but even so when the backgrounds just look this dull and lifeless it does make you wonder the makers of this cartoon back when they first made this cartoon as there is more life in the background of Roan Runner cartoon then there is here just to be clear this isn't to say that the backgrounds are really bad as there not it's just that there not up to the high standards that we see in other Looney Tunes cartoons.  


This cartoon does of course spoof the characters of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson and while having the idea of having Daffy Duck playing Holmes is a good way to send the character up the cartoon doesn't really spoof Sherlock and Watson all that much. This is something that the cartoon really should have done even if it's just by having knock off s of characters from those book it still would have been something and heck the cartoon even could have spoofed the common tropes seen in not only those books but also in detective fiction as well as that is something that would have made the cartoon be alot more interesting and yet the makers of this cartoon don't really do any of that with them instead just choosing to have knocks of Holmes and Watson. Which don't get me wrong is a good idea as the team had used Porky and Daffy as a team together in other Looney Tunes shorts but the thing is tho in those shorts when they were spoofing something they went as far as they could have done with it thus making the parody alot more better where as here it feels like that they are holding themselves back when really they should have been going as far as they could have done with it like for example why not have a knock off version of Moriarty only now he's as dumb as Daffy is and why not have Mycroft in it only now he looks exactly like Daffy there are so many things that the makers of this cartoon could have done to really send up Holmes and Watson and yet they don't do it weather or not the makers of this cartoon were fans of the original books and films is hard to say as what we do know is that hen Chuck Jones is a fan of something he does go all out on spoofing it like he did in What's Opera Doc where he did an entire opera in seven minuets of course it very well could have been a budget reason which is something that does make sense as the cartoon does take mainly take place in this one bar but either way the makers of this cartoon could have done more with spoofing Sherlock Holmes.

The idea of having Porky and Daffy team up in a cartoon is a really good idea as it does allow for a combination that we never new we wanted until we got it. Whilst yes they did team in the Duck Dodgers short and Drip Along Daffy it is a team up that works as Daffy gets to be usual crazy self and Porky gets a chance to show his more sarcastic side and it is something that does make him more thought out as a character as Daffy is the only character in which Porky could get away with being sarcastic to as he can't do it with Bugs as Bugs to smart for that and he can't do it with alot of the other Looney Tunes as like Porky they are the straight man in there comedy double act. Yet for one reason or another alot of people very rarely have the two of them team up in this way with the closest that we got to that being The Day The Earth Blew Up and even then you could make the point that Daffy was being his crazy self and Porky just wasn't taking any of it where and yet this and other cartoons like this do show you that having these two team up in this way is something that does work as it does allow for Daffy to be the funny man and it allows for Porky to be the straight man where as anyone who teams up with Bugs has to be the straight man and therefor there aren't that many combinations that you could do with Bugs Bunny, with this cartoon even sticking very much to the funny man and straight man routine and it is something that dos work as you know right away just what Dorlock Holmes is going to say and do but what we never know is what Watkins is going to say or do and yet nine times out of ten they do feel right for those characters and while if course it would have been nice to see daffy team up with another character just to see how well that they bounce off of each other having him team up with Porky Pig is something that we know works and it is something that works just as well in this cartoon. 


Whilst te cartoon doesn't really take full advantage of the fact that it's spoofing Sherlock Holmes The Shropshire Slasher oddly enough does feel the most like a villain from one of those books and movies. As while we don't get to find out his crime or why he's called that in this cartoon just the very fact that Holmes does choose to seek him out does help to make him feel like a credible threat with it being helped by the fact that The Shropshire Slasher towers over both Holmes and Watkins which is somethin that does make him feel more intimidating as a villain as we the audience can see that Holmes is quite literally in for the fight of his life and while we do of course know that it will only be Holmes that gets beaten up in this cartoon it doesn't hinder the fact that The Shropshire Slasher does have to use his brains of sorts to hurt him. The only thing that does let this character is the fact that as was mentioned we don't get to find out why he's evil in the first place which is fair enough for this cartoon as this is meant to see him essentially giving up his evil ways it still would have been quite fun to see why he's meant to be this big bad villain in the first place and heck on could argue that seeing Daffy not only take him on but also win would make the cartoon alot more funnier as it would be something that we'd never expect to see and yet for one reason or another the makers of this cartoon don't do that and while it is understandable as they don't have that long to get across the plot of the cartoon and tell lots of jokes it still would have helped the cartoon out if they did take the time to tell us more about him as a character even if it's done through either Porky or Daffy as then when we do meet him we the audience would feel something as opposed to feeling nothing like we do in this cartoon.

Now then this cartoon has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly seven minuets ad seven seconds. Which to be fair to this cartoon is pretty much the bogstandard running time for these Looney Tunes cartoons but in saying that tho this cartoon really could have been about six minuets as this is a cartoon that doesn't require a long running time due to the fact that it's plot is so simple with even a small portion of the cartoon being pointless filler as we do get to see Daffy and Porky walking to the bar where they are to meet The Shropshire Slasher which isn't needed and neither is alot of the stuff at there house either as all that does is make those scenes feel like padding when this cartoon really didn't need padding out at all as the cartoon really does have the right amount of plot there to cover that amount of running time in the first place. Yet even so this cartoon still doesn't use it's running time all that wisely as this cartoon really does take the time to fully develop it's plot which granted was something that was always going to be hard given it's short running time but if instead of having those pointless scenes both add and do nothing for the plot of the cartoon the makers of this cartoon very easily could have taken the time to add some small amount of plot development as that is something that would make those scenes feel more worthwhile but the makers of this cartoon do seem to more focused on giving us pointless filler scene then they are some actual plot development. The same thing is also true for the cartoons character develop as while cartoons from this era didn't typically give any of there characters character development it still would have been nice if the makers of this cartoon gave characters like for example Watkins or even Dorlock himself some form of character development even if it's done as a joke as that would then make there characters worth while but given the fact that these older cartoons don't typically give there characters character development it doesn't make sense for this cartoon to do it either with the cartoon being more focused on not giving us much of a Sherlock Holmes parody instead of giving us some actual character development but ai really will admit that this cartoon really does have some really good pacing to it tho.


So now then as this is a comedy that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy thats actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty i in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. Much like this cartoons animation while the comedy is indeed good it's clearly not up to the high standards of comedy set not only by the Looney Tunes themselves but also by this cartoons director Chuck Jones as while there are some funny physical comedy in the cartoon there's nothing in this cartoon that is laugh out loud when all of the best Chuck Jones cartoon have at the very least one laugh out loud funny moment in them. With the best joke in the whole cartoon being when The Shropshire Slasher is beating up Daffy the cartoon cuts to Porky who give us this rather sarcastic type of smile which is something that is perfect for his character as with Watkins being the smarter f the two he would of course know full well that Holmes is doing something that's really dumb and stupid and to be fair to this cartoon its this joke that does prove that Porky can have more of a sarcastic side to him with it being something that does really well in this cartoon as its something that will always be funny no matter what with that one joke even proving that the makers of this cartoon still do know how to tell a good Looney Tunes cartoon and while it is a quick joke its one that does also work because of how quick that is as Chuck Jones himself once said that the difference between getting a laugh and not getting a laugh is single frame and this joke does last the right amount of time as it allows for us the audience to work out just what s going on and the  react to it whereas if it was to fast we wouldn't have the time to work out what is going on and if it was to slow then it would just feel awkward with the cartoons jokes being just as good as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this cartoon is clearly not the best Chuck Jones Looney Tunes cartoon out there as the cartoon does have alot of things wrong with to but at the same time tho you can still the love and effort that went into making this cartoon with the issues with the cartoon being things that could have been fixed if they had more time to fully work on it in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very cartoon in this very review and a such that really does mean that this very cartoon really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 7 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review will then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got al, of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , LooneyTunesWiki . Com , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very cartoon that I used in this very post being the really great Google Images really simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very cartoon with alot of them really being really better quality then what you'd really think of and all of the images are really of course up and really on Google Images really are also really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition and there's really only one way to end this review T-T-T-T-THAT'S ALL FOLKS.

Looney Tunes "Devil May Hare" Review



The Looney Tunes characters are some of the most well known characters in the world of animation yet this is something that you really wouldn't know given just how badly they've been treated by there own creators in recent years. Yet this wasn't always the case as there was a time where anything a new Looney Tunes cartoon meant that we were going to be seeing somethin good and that is very much the case with the cartoon that i'm going to be revieing for you all today and so then join me as I review the review the cartoon that introduces us to Taz with the cartoon in question being called simply just "Devil May Hare" enjoy.

The plot of this cartoon is when a hungry Taz escapes and goes looking to eat quite literally anything for lunch its up to ne scared and easily frightened rabbit to put a stop to him before he to becomes lunch. Now then interms of what I personally thought / about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. The plot to this cartoon is one that is quite simple and to be fair that's all it needed to be as alot of the Looney Tunes shorts did have very simple plots to them with alot of them this one included just essentially having a premise and nothing more then that. This is something that does allow for the makers of this cartoon to pack in the cartoon with alot more jokes and not have to spend so little time in explaining the joke which is something that they would have to do if the plot was alot more deep and complex and to it's credit this is where the episode does shine its best with the plot of the cartoon being delightfully simple as we don't need to know why Taz is going after Bugs we just need to know that he's hungry and will and in this case does eat anything that comes before him and that's and that it is great for a cartoon like this one, this isn't to say that all cartoons should have simple plots as something like Mickey Mouse cartoon can get away with having more complex plots but for a Looney Tunes cartoon you do want a plot that is more simple and easy to follow and that's exactly what he plot of this cartoon is in all of the best ways possible with the plot of this cartoon also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.  


Starring in this cartoon is Mel Blanc with him providing the voices for all of the cartoons characters something which he did pretty much all of the time. With it being next to impossible to tell that characters like Bugs and Taz for example are being voiced by the same actor as he does go to great lengths into giving these characters distinct enough voices that you can tell just who is talking when you close your eyes and just listen to the cartoon this is of course helped by the fact that Bugs does have one of if not the most famous cartoon voice but even with Taz when we are so used to hearing the character speaking what is essentially gibberish and yet here not only does speak full English but he's also got a more intelligent sounding voice to him as well. Of course the characters voice would change over the years before finally ending up with the more familiar sounding voice for the character but it is interesting to see not only where the characters voice would start but also what the evolution of his voice was like as we know that Bugs's voice in his official cartoon is alot more different then what it is now with him originally sounding like a just as daffy Daffy Duck before slowly morphing into his more familiar sounding voice the ore that the character was refined and the more that various other directors worked on him and it does appear to be the same case with Taz and yet even in this cartoon you can still can here a bit of the more traditional sounding voice for the character as there are times when he's spinning where he does speaking gibberish and yet it doesn't feel out of character for him even when he's speaking in full English and infact you could make the case that having him speak like this when he's the villain of the cartoon is perfect as it does make him sound more threatening of a character whereas with him speaking gibberish you do lose that.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. It's not rally all that surprising that the acting in this cartoon is as good as it is given the fact that we do have perhaps the best voice actor ever doing all of the voices for all of the characters in the cartoon and while yes it would have helped if we did have more actors in this cartoon just to give Mel someone to bounce off of it wasn't something that was needed as you can barely tell that both characters were played by the same man. It does go without saying but the best actor in this cartoon is of course Mel Blanc as he is just so good as both Bugs and Taz in this cartoon and while the voice or Taz would evolve over years it is nice to see there the voice the character started with Mel giving just as much to his performance as Taz as he would do to Bugs with it coming across as him having a deep level of love for all of the characters that he voices not only in general but in this cartoon as a whole as he does go to great lengths into giving all of the cartoons characters there own level of warmth with the same thing even being true for Taz and he is meant to be the villain of the piece this is something that does shine through in his performance with his performance in this cartoon even giving alot of the characters some of their personalities. With the acting that's in this very cartoon really being helped by the fact that this cartoons script is just so good that all this cartoons actor has to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of him naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very cartoon. 


Doing the animation for this cartoon is Herman Cohen , Phil DeLara , Charles McKimson and Rod Scribner. Now then interms of what I personally thought / about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. While alot of the classic Looney Tunes cartoons do gave these highly detailed backgrounds that show off the fact that these shorts were made to be seen on the big screen this short goes the opposite way by giving us these highly minimalistic backgrounds and this is something that does work well enough in the cartoons favor. As not all of these Looney Tunes cartoons need to have these highly detailed backgrounds for them to look good does it help yes but it's not something that's needed with the thing that helps to sell you on this cartoons animation being the fact that these backgrounds not only never repeated in the cartoon but they also never got reused and yet they still look really good. Heck the animation on the whole is of a really high quality as you can tell right from the first frame that alot of blood , sweat and tears when into this cartoons animation due to the fact that we do get alot of shots that would have been really hard to pull of in 2D like the fact that we get to see Taz hanging upside down only we are seeing it from the ground up whereas today such a shot would be done in CGI back in the day tho the makers of this cartoon just had to take a chance on it working and thank god it did as that shot does look really good with all of the cartoons animation more then holding up all of these later. 


For those of you that perhaps didn't know this cartoon marks the official debut for Taz with him in this cartoon just looking for some lunch. Which in this case does involve eating Bugs Bunny and while the character would get more refined as the years went on here in this early version of the character he is still pretty much as fully formed as he is ever likely to be with the only major difference being that much like Wile E. Coyote did in either his first or one of his first cartoons Taz speaks almost in full sentences with him still maintaining his more animalistic nature where as in later years especially during The Looney Tunes Show he would be played up more as being a wild animal and would barely speak in English. This version of the character even tho it's a rough draft of a character still does work and the fact that even all of these years later there's really only been one major change to his character does show you that the makers of this cartoon really did nail him on his first attempt and the fact that the character was only brought back for more cartoons after alot of fans demanded that the character be brought back does show out that he is one of the most underrated characters in Looney Tunes history. As yeah this character was originally meant to be a one and done character but due to how the fans responded to him as a character Warner Bros had no choice but t bring him back to start in more cartoons with him being a core Looney Tunes character ever since then and to be fair it's not that hard to see why he ended up being as popular as he did as even in this cartoon he is a highly entertaining character who can at times be goofy and be looney and while that might take away from other Looney Tunes villains here it is something that does help him feel more well rounded and while he is going up against the powerhouse that is Bugs Bunny he does come out being just as fun to watch as Bugs himself is.

Whilst there are alot of really good things to be found in this cartoon there some downsides to this cartoon as well like for example the fact that the cartoons plot might be a bit to simple for it's own good as while yes it is good that it did have a simple plot there are times where it is hard to work out just what the main plot of the cartoon is due to how simple the cartoons plot is with the other thing being the fact that despite Taz being the villain of the cartoon you do still end up liking him as a character whereas if the makers of this cartoon wanted t us to truly hate this character then they should have gone as far as they could have done into making Taz be this evil character. Like for example they could have had him come close to eating Bugs a couple of times are actually show Bugs being scared of him both of these are very simple things to do but there also really effective as they get across the fact that Taz is someone that should be feared with this having the added impact of making all the times that Bugs does get his payback on Taz be all the more fun to watch as now we the audience want to see all of these things happen to him and yet as the makers of this cartoon went almost out of there way to not make him as evil as they could have done by making him be this more aloof type of character then alot of the times that Bugs does get back at him whilst they are still funny there not really earned with it feeling like that the cartoon is just going through the motions during those parts of the cartoon. However to be fair tho whilst these shorts were made more with families in mind and not just kids it does somewhat make sense that they wouldn't make Taz out to be this truly evil character as they are trying to appease the whole family but it still would have been nice to see what a fully evil Taz would have looked like as there is the potential there for him to be this really evil but still looney character.


Just to talk about Bugs for a second he is just as fun to watch in this cartoon as he is in alot of his other cartoons. This is something that does make sense as the character had been around for alot longer then Taz at that point in time and therefor the makers of this cartoon would have gotten his personality down perfectly with this being something that would have helped to make it easier to come up with stories for him and to be pairing this new character with Bugs Bunny is something that does make sense as Bugs was and still is the bigger star of the two and therefor putting him in a Bugs Bunny cartoon is guaranteed to give the cartoon alot more eyes on it just due to the fact that Bugs was in alot more cartoons. However this is something that could be seen as being a bad thing as we all know that Bugs is never going to loose at the end of the cartoon outside of a few Elmer Fudd cartoons and therefor there's not really alot of tension in the cartoon with the tension instead coming from the fact that we are now left trying to work out how Bugs will get himself out of this one now whereas if Taz was paired up with someone like Daffy or Porky who yes are still very well known characters in there own right you would then have that tension right away as both of those characters very rarely if ever "won" there cartoons and therefor we would be more tense when we see Taz chasing after either of them, yet at the same time tho Bugs and Taz do make for a good combo with it making you wonder why the makers of this cartoon didn't pair these two up more often as you could have gotten alot of laughs out of Bugs using his street smarts to outwit the hungry nature of Taz or heck when they pair Taz up with Bugs they could have given him a slightly different personality like what they did with Daffy when he teamed up with Bugs as Taz and Bugs do have the potential to be a really funny combo and they could have been exactly that if they were paired up together more often.

Now then this cartoon has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly six minuets and fifty five seconds. With this pretty much being the exact grand total running time for alot of the Looney Tunes cartoons and to be fair to this cartoon whilst it really doesn't need to be that long as you very easily could have told this cartoons plot in well under five minuets it does have to fully set up a new character and get across what he is like and still a good story and there is a good chance that the cartoon wouldn't have been able to do that if it was under five minuets with the cartoon even having the right amount of plot there to cover that amount on running time in the first place. While this cartoon doesn't really use it's running time all that wisely as the cartoon doesn't take the time to fully develop its plot this is something that really isn't a bad thing in this case as given the fact that the Looney Tunes cartoons always more gag driven then they are plot driven it dos make sense that the plot wouldn't be as well developed as that would mean taking up screen time away from the cartoons jokes and when the plot of the cartoon is as simple as it is then this cartoons plot really didn't need to be as well developed and while yes it would have been nice if the plot of this cartoon was alot more well developed it wasn't something that the makers of this cartoon needed to do as it would be the jokes that determined if this cartoon is good or not. The same thing is also true for the cartoons lack of character development with the added thing in this case being the fact that you could make the argument that Bugs has all of his other characters to get some character development and while it would have been nice if Taz did get some character development in this cartoon as there was guarantee that he would be getting more cartoons in the future it wasn't something that was needed as he is meant to be the villain of the piece but I really will admit that this cartoon really does have some really good pacing to it tho. 


So now then as this is a comedy that really does mean tat I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. This cartoon does have alot of good jokes in it all of which do feel true to who both Taz and Bugs are as characters be it from Taz cutting down mountains whilst chasing Bugs to Bugs burying Taz in the ground in an early attempt to get away from him bottom line being here is that there are alot of good jokes in this cartoon with it being made clear that the makers of this cartoon did put alot of thought and effort into this cartoons jokes. With the best joke in this cartoon being a tie between when Bugs gets Taz to swallow an inflatable raft and then pulling string this making Taz himself turn into a raft is a funny visual and when Bugs is on the phone ordering an advertisement for a female Taz to come and marry Taz only for him to get cut off by the operator when Bugs turns and talks to the audience which again is a funny joke with the thing that makes the raft Taz joke even more funny being the animation as we get to see him turn into a Taz shaped raft which was something that the makers of this cartoon didn't have to do and the thing that makes the joke about Bugs being cut of by the phone operator work as well as it does being the fact that it is a slightly clever joke as it is something that you wouldn't expect to find in a Looney Tunes cartoon and yet that is why both of these jokes work so well as there jokes that you don't see coming with them being able to work so well because of it with the rest of the cartoons jokes being just as good as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.  


Overall this was a solid cartoon as it does show you just how good that the Looney Tunes could be when they have a good director making there cartoons and while Warner Bros might be content with destroying there own legacy this is cartoon is a good reminder of why these characters are so well beloved in the first place in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very cartoon in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very cartoon really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 7 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very revie well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Looney Tunes Wiki . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very cartoon that I used in this very post being the really great Google Images really simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very cartoon with alot of them really being really better quality then what you'd really think of and all of the images are really of course up and really on Google Images really are also really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition and there's really only one way to end this review T-T-T-T-THAT'S ALL FOLKS.
