Since we're celebrating Bugs' birthday, I wanted to talk about one of my favorite shorts related to his 51½th anniversary , "That #$@! Bunny!" (also known as Blooper Bunny).
It's a mockumentary where we get to see the "bloopers" from that anniversary special. Bugs, Daffy, Elmer, and Sam are all portrayed as if they were real actors behind the scenes and AAAAAAH, I LOVE IT SO MUCH TT. It's hilarious watching them constantly mess up their takes. Even Bugs accidentally drops the cane he's supposed to be holding in the middle of filming. And then there's Daffy ranting about the studio and complaining that the only thing left is for them to give him three nephews. (What a great reference xd)
I also have to admit that I absolutely love those two sillies interactions throughout the entire short WIJIJISJSAIDJDKCK
There's another little detail.......Bugs, Elmer, and Sam all have nice dressing rooms while Daffy gets this tiny, old dressing room tucked away off to the side.
WHY DO THEY TREAT HIM LIKE THAT!? MY POOR DUCK TT
Hmm... I also find it interesting that the characters featured are specifically the ones who, "on camera," have a rivalry with Bugs.
If I remember correctly, the short was produced around 1990–1991, but Warner decided to shelve it because the humor was considered too mean-spirited and it poked fun at the studio itself. It wasn't officially released until June 13, 1997, on Cartoon Network.
Ajskldj, I always end up saying this, but I just love imagining that they're all still there inside the studio, living their lives at this very moment. TT Can you imagine what they might be doing right now??? AAAAAA.
Anywaaay, here are a few screenshots from the short because I GET WAY TOO EXCITED ABOUT THIS. PIEDAAAD😭
