i love how lola and bugs fell in love in pairs in both rabbits run and the looney tunes show

The Looney Tunes Show holds a special place in my heart for how it revitalized the classic WB characters. While I grew up watching the beloved slapstick shorts, the show’s sitcom format appealed to me more as an adult, offering an opportunity to explore the personalities of Bugs and Daffy in more depth.

The series also completely reinvented Lola Bunny. In Space Jam, she was a bland, one-dimensional character with little to offer beyond a persona derivative of Jessica Rabbit and a stereotypically 90s tough gal attitude. But in The Looney Tunes Show, she was reimagined as a disturbed, delusional valley girl with a unique and compelling personality—one that made her not only my favorite version of Lola, but the only one I like.

The show portrayed Lola as an innocent, bubbly, almost childlike young woman, who gradually reveals herself to be a full-fledged psychopath, infamously obsessed with Bugs. The writers wisely leaned into this twist, blending the personality of a lovesick teenager with the intensity of a thriller villain—think Legally Blonde meets Fatal Attraction. This darker take on Lola was truly inspired, not only in the hilarious writing, but in Jessica Borutski's excellent redesign and Kristen Wiig's iconic performance. While Lola's unhinged antics were toned down in season two as Bugs started dating her, her psychotic distinctiveness remained intact.

When Rabbits Run was announced, with Lola as the protagonist, I was excited. The first two acts maintained some of the offbeat humor and kooky charm of her character from The Looney Tunes Show. Though I prefer Lola to be a more overtly unhinged character, I found the direction taken in Rabbits Run moderately entertaining, at least initially. As the film progresses, we see glimpses of her deranged side, though it’s often dialed down, leaning into the sweet, goofy gal she is on the surface.

The movie begins with a fun parody of Disney Renaissance I Want songs, where Lola trashes a perfume shop while singing about her dream to leave behind her mundane life and create a signature scent in Paris. Rachel Ramras is serviceable as Lola, but cannot match Kristen Wiig's acting range, nor her singing abilities. The plot escalates when it turns out that the flower used in her perfume gives her the power of invisibility, sparking a series of chase sequences between her and the government, inspired more by the Jason Bourne films than by WB's Roadrunner or Tweety shorts. Lola, oblivious to the perfume’s effects, believes rival artists want to steal her creation, setting off a madcap adventure with Bugs Bunny dragged into the chaos.

While the animation quality here falls short of the standard set by The Looney Tunes Show, there are larger issues. The film stumbles in its third act, where the pacing grinds to a halt. After a dramatic leap from a plane, Lola and Bugs are rescued by the Goofy Gophers, who give her a makeover during an unnecessary and distracting musical number. With only two songs in the film, both of which are placed at wildly different points, can we even call this a musical?

The segment, along with the sudden romance between Lola and Bugs, feels out of place. While the two characters do become a couple in The Looney Tunes Show, here their relationship feels rushed and underdeveloped. The film does little to justify their budding romance, while Lola's stalker tendencies and Bugs’ clear discomfort with her obsessive behavior are left unexplored.

By the time the narrative moves to Paris, Lola casts aside her artistic aspirations, leaving her without a clear objective. The film’s focus shifts to a short-lived sequence of Lola and Bugs dating in Paris, which doesn’t capitalize on the setting or their invisibility. This part of the story feels like a retread of The Looney Tunes Show’s Eligible Bachelors episode, but without the same comedic impact. As the film adds Marvin the Martian as a last-minute antagonist, it becomes clear that the plot has become a disjointed series of events rather than a cohesive narrative. The film's conclusion lacks any real resolution, leaving the audience with little sense of closure.

Rabbits Run is a difficult film to recommend. If you’re a die-hard fan of Lola's character from The Looney Tunes Show, you’ll find moments of joy in her antics, particularly in the first two acts. But if you haven’t watched the show, I’d advise starting there. The film falters in its structure and tone, playing it too safe with its characters and losing much of the quirky, unpredictable energy that made Lola’s earlier iteration so memorable.

That said, Rabbits Run is a lighthearted, kid-friendly adventure, with simple, straightforward humor that makes it accessible for younger audiences. But for adults who appreciated The Looney Tunes Show’s mature humor—drawing inspiration from sitcoms like It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Seinfeld—the movie is bound to feel like a missed opportunity.

It’s especially disappointing that Rabbits Run may serve as the final bow for this unique version of Lola. In New Looney Tunes, she’s portrayed as little more than a derivative Bugs Bunny clone, and in Space Jam 2, she reverts to a bland, tokenized girlboss archetype. One can only hope that Kristen Wiig and Jessica Borutski will someday return to the character, with writers willing to lean back into the delightful, deranged qualities that made her so entertaining. Ideally, they could even explore Lola’s character further in a project aimed at adults—perhaps tapping into the dark, offbeat humor of The Cable Guy or the twisted, psychologically charged energy of Gone Girl.

While Rabbits Run isn’t the explosive send-off that this Lola deserves, it remains a serviceable, if flawed, film that younger viewers may enjoy.

Rabbits Run is the only believable 'two characters fall in love in one day' story in a movie because who couldn't fall immediately in love with her

Lola Bunny Tier List

This is my rankings of the different versions of Lola Bunny. The versions I chose to rank are Space Jam, the DC comics, Tweety's Highflying Adventure, Baby Looney Tunes, Dating Do's and Don'ts, Loonatics Unleashed (Yes, I am aware it's not actually Lola but it's still a variation of her), The Looney Tunes Show, Rabbits Run, New Looney Tunes (Formally known as Wabbit), and Space Jam: A New Legacy.

1.DC Comics- This version of Lola is absolutely the most PERFECT version of Lola that there is. She's smart, strong, competent, independent, and feisty but is able to get into wacky situations like a traditional Looney Tune. She's a pizza delivery girl for mythical creatures, ancient spirits, and deities, which is awesome and has a lot of comedic potential that they take full advantage of. She shows that she can hold her own as a Looney Tune without having to rely on the other Looney Tunes to make her story work. She's sassy, witty, hot-headed, vindictive, resourceful, clever, can take a beating, and is just everything you want in a great female Looney Tune and a great Looney Tune in general. I'd love to see animated shorts based on the comics.

2.Space Jam: A New Legacy- I was very skeptical about this when I learned that out of nowhere at the last minute they replaced Kath Soucie with Zendaya, who is a TERRIBLE actress in my opinion. However, Zendaya did surprise me by actually giving a good performance, for once. She wasn't monotoned, wooden, or stale but full of energy, genuine emotion, and showing personality. This version of Lola takes full advantage of Lola by fleshing her out more and making her more important to the plot than she was in the original Space Jam. She's really awesome and a lot like her DC comic book version. The only thing holding her back is that Zendaya voices her. I'm sorry but the fact that Kath Soucie was going to voice her but they just out of nowhere screwed her over in favor of a big named (And OVERRATED) celebrity really leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

3.New Looney Tune- This is pretty much just like her DC comic book version where she is smart, competent, strong, and independent but is able to be in wacky situations. The episode Lola Rider is amazing and shows her full potential being shown. Kath Soucie even returned to voice her, showing off her versatility. The art style is terrible but this is a very faithful and well-done version of Lola. However, she's not higher because of two things. The first being she's only in three episodes, one of which is only for one minute. In her third and final appearance, she acts like a major fangirl that is kind of clueless, which seems out of character. However, I chalk that up to Lola just being such a big sports fan that when she's near someone she's a big fan of, she loses her senses in excitement.

4.Loonatics Unleashed- An underrated and overly hated show that is a lot of fun. Lola's descendant, Lexi Bunny, is the best part of the show because of her strong, smart, fun, sassy, and badass personality. Her personality is fleshed out and despite being the only girl never feels like she's just there to be the token chick but rather an essential member of the team. She's even second in command to Ace, Bugs Bunny's descendant. I really love her sass and how she carries herself in all situations whether mellow or dangerous. I find her interactions with Daffy Duck's descendant, Danger Duck. They have very much a sibling relationship where she never misses an opportunity to call him out on his crap, not to mention put him in his place when he does something to make her upset. I feel like this is what Lola and Daffy's interactions would be like, which I wish we would see more of with the actual Lola and Daffy.

5.Space Jam- The original Lola Bunny, who is awesome. I love her catchphrase, "Don't ever call me doll" and I wish that it would've stayed her catchphrase in later versions of Lola. She's smart, strong, feisty, has great expressions, is self-reliant, and never lets people underestimate her simply for being an attractive female. She's a wonderful character but she isn't very well written. She has less than 4 minutes of screen time in the whole movie, speaking and non-speaking. That makes her not as fleshed out as she could've been. They should've given her more to do and more of a role in the film. Not to mention make her a bit more looney like she would be in the comics. I feel like they should've modeled her personality a little bit more like Babs Bunny from Tiny Toon Adventures (Yes, Babs Bunny actually came before Lola).

6.Baby Looney Tunes- The same Lola we know and love but as a baby. She's still smart, strong, stands up for herself, is creative, feisty, caring, and maintains her amazing athletic skills. She's great but her being a baby does limit her.

7.Tweety's Highflying Adventure- This is just a cameo with her as a weather girl. She's cool and all but there's not much to judge because of how it's less than a minute.

8.Rabbits Run- This version of Lola is VERY different from the Lola that is normally shown in media. She's more of an airhead because of how she's based on The Looney Tunes Show version of Lola. So I should really hate this version but she was actually okay. She wasn't a brainless, man-obsessed, dumb blonde stereotype and actually had some independence and goals that didn't revolve around a man or just change out of nowhere. On her own, she's an entertaining character but she's still just NOT Lola.

9.Dating Do's and Don'ts- This version has no lines other than giggling like a dumb teenage valley girl stereotype. This really isn't anything like Lola and is just so out of character.

10.The Looney Tunes Show- I absolutely DESPISE this version of Lola. They took an already established character that was smart, competent, independent, self-reliant, and strong and turned her into the polar opposite of who she was. They made her a scatterbrained, man-obsessed, dumb blonde stereotype that never shuts up. This is bad fanfic levels of terrible character writing. The creators of the show actually said they never saw Space Jam or anything else Lola appeared in, which just shows how terribly written this character is. I respect people's opinions but saying this version of Lola is the best is just really insulting to the character, to women, and to quality writing. Just let this version DIE and never be allowed to see the light of day EVER again.
