Very well executed
the audience applauded
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
View MoreA great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
View MoreA construction worker, who Bugs Bunny refers to as Hercules, has shoveled off his rabbit hole.He refuses to put it back.This means war! Homeless Hare from 1950 is a Merrie Melodies cartoon by Chuck Jones.Besides Mel Blanc we hear John T. Smith as a voice artist.This short has a lot of funny, zany stuff.We see Bugs playing with the elevator controls while the worker is inside the elevator.We see Bugs impersonating a building inspector, who orders the worker to make a high brick wall.We also see Bugs being knocked out.At the end we learn that a man's home is his castle.Not necessarily the most classic Bugs Bunny, but still very enjoyable.
View MoreIf we've seen enough Bugs Bunny cartoons, we should know that he doesn't let anyone walk all over him and get away with it. This is truly the case in "Homeless Hare", as a brutish developer digs up Bugs's rabbit hole to make room for a building. The rest of the cartoon pretty much consists of Bugs coming up with ways to punish the developer. Probably the best part is the whole sequence that looks as if it was designed by Rube Goldberg, namely because you think that one thing is going to happen, but something even funnier ends up happening! How did they come up with these things?!Anyway, these cartoons are just plain great. I don't know how we got by without these.As Daffy said in "Stupor Duck": Couldn't they find a better place to put a building?
View MoreA construction worker destroys Bug's home accidentally while doing his job. But seeing as how he's totally unrepentant about what he's done, Bugs decides to take it upon himself to teach him some manners. Definitely one of the lesser of the Bugs cartoons this short just didn't hit my funny bone as much as usual. It IS however one of the very few times I saw Bugs get his ass completely beat down (even if it only kept him out of commission for like half a minute). This animated short can be found on Disk 1 of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 3.My Grade: B-
View MoreThis is the first of two cartoons where a thoroughly obnoxious and unlikable construction worker tramples on our stalwart hero, with generally hilarious results (though the construction worker was probably less than happy about it all). The second of the two, No Parking Hare, is slightly better, but both are marvelous and are well worth watching. This one is happily available. Recommended.
