Disturbing yet enthralling

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

A poor Bugs Bunny cartoon that has the notable distinctions of being the last Bugs short made during the classic era, the last Looney Tunes cartoon to use the familiar theme music, and the last one made by Warner Bros. before DePatie-Freleng took over production and quality, which had been dropping steadily in the '60s, took a nosedive. This short, directed by Robert McKimson, is a sequel of sorts to McKimson's "Now Hare This" from 1958. The Big Bad Wolf character from that cartoon returns here, along with his precocious nephew, to play a poor man's Sylvester & Sylvester, Jr. Only instead of Jr. egging his dad on to catch mice, it's the nephew egging his uncle on to catch Bugs. Pretty dumb and tired, these guys are near the bottom of the many foils Bugs had over the years. The animation is flat with dull colors and lifeless character designs and backgrounds. The sound effects are annoyingly loud. The score, courtesy of Bill Lava, is about on par with his usual output. That's not a compliment, by the way. There are no standout gags or lines in this. Whatever credit there is for a chuckle or two should go to Mel Blanc, whose voice work goes a long way to breathing life into this carcass. One final note is that, in addition to this being the final Bugs short of the classic era, it's also the last appearance of Foghorn Leghorn in the same era. He makes a cameo at the end.

. . . or "continuity girl" (to use the lingo current in the early 1960s, when the Warner Bros. Looney Toon animated short FALSE HARE was released) is listed in the credits here. In fact, all nine people who ARE credited appear to be male. Apparently, the good old boys in this "Conejo" Club were NOT sticklers for details. For instance, check out their "Club Del Conejo" pictured 1:48 into this cartoon. The trees to its left and right have trunks too short to reach the two-story white frame home, even if they fell in a direct line toward it. For that matter, the leaves on the highest, thinnest branches barely approach the height of the roof peak. But then at the 5:51 mark of this 6-minute, 17-second flick, the club house is shown surrounded by giant redwood trees, one of which Uncle Big Bad has just dynamited, inadvertently crushing the house to smithereens. As Big Bad's nephew might say, that's not quite "ginger-peachy."

Though there are fans who dislike the Warner Brothers output from 1964 or thereabouts to 1969, I don't think it was all that bad. It certainly doesn't match the best of the heyday, but a lot of it was entertaining. This one was enjoyable, if not a true classic, but then, there were less than extraordinary shorts in the 1930s, '40s and '50s also. Bugs Bunny's retirement followed this (at least theatrically-like many stars of the silver screen, Bugs did television to keep himself in carrots) until 1990. You just can't keep a good hare down. Worth watching. Recommended.

In this short, Bugs Bunny again comes up against the big bad wolf and his nephew. The story is amusing and there are some definite laughs to be seen. Fog horn Leghorn even pops in for a cameo at the very end. The animation is also pretty good. Sadly, this was the final theatrically released Bugs Bunny short, at least until Box Office Bunny which came out in 1990.
