Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Robert Reynolds This is a Bugs Bunny Easter-themed short from Warner Brothers. There will be spoilers ahead:This is a fairly interesting Bugs Bunny. Here, Bugs is once again minding his own business, reading "How To Multiply", when he hears crying and investigates. He sees the Easter Bunny, who tells Bugs a sob story and cons him into delivering the Easter eggs this year. Bugs makes his first stop, which sets the tone for the short, as he meets a kid whose "pacifier" is a revolver! The kid screams, "I wanna Easter egg!" and proceeds to injure our hero. when Bugs tries to discipline the monster, the little Damian in training sets up an alarm, bringing three massive and well-armed adults who aim to perforate a certain rabbit, fleeing stage left!The stage is set for Elmer to make an entrance. Once again, Elmer is bent on shooting Bugs, which is what he tries to do in most of their shorts together. He's waiting to shoot the Easter Rabbit and make "Eastew wabbit stew"! Bugs gets the drop on him and the race is on.Most of the remainder of the short consists of Bugs outwitting Elmer and fending off a very pushy Easter rabbit nagging him to deliver more eggs in a whiny voice. The best gag here is Bugs playing magician with Elmer's pocket watch.Bugs gets the best of both Elmer and the Easter rabbit in the end, though what happens to poor Elmer shouldn't happen to anyone! The Easter rabbit gets what he deserves.This short is available on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection, Volume 3 and is well worth watching. Recommended.

TheLittleSongbird Easter Yeggs isn't among the best, but it is very funny and a pleasant enough themed cartoon. I can understand why people mayn't like it, although I was personally satisfied by the ending it is very shocking all the same, and Elmer's character here has an inconsistency that he hunts for food here.If you ignore the inconsistency or at least try to, Easter Yeggs is quite fun. The story is simple but engaging enough, and there are many funny and quotable lines in the dialogue. The animation is crisp and smooth with beautiful colours and the music is lively. I feel this is an instance when the dialogue is better than the sight gags, but most of the sight gags do work, and the voice work is terrific as per usual.Overall, a nice cartoon. 8/10 Bethany Cox

ccthemovieman-1 We see a funny sight right off the bat: Bugs Bunny reading a book titled, "How To Multiply." He seems to be enjoying it. Nearby someone is sobbing out loud. Bugs checks it out and finds it's the "Easter Bunny," who is worried about delivering his colored eggs on this day because his feet are killing him. Bugs volunteers to deliver the "Technicolor hen fruit."His first stop is a house that says "Dead End Kid" on it. If you've seen any of the Dead End Kids movies you'll know what to expect. After narrowly escaping with his life, Bugs quits, but get talked into trying one more delivery. It turns out to be Elmer Fudd's house. Bugs tries to get into the spirit of the holiday but it's knda tough when the recipient is waiting inside with a shotgun to blow your head off! Most of the rest of the story has Bugs and Elmer going back and forth with each other. It's okay, but nothing worth noting.The ending was a bit of a shock, but knowing the "Ain't I A Stinker?" Bugs Bunny attitude, maybe it wasn't.

movieman_kev Th Easter Bunny comes down with a bout of the sickness so Bugs Bunny (no relation) offers to deliver the eggs to an ungrateful brat of a kid, as well as Elmer Fudd in disguise. As those who know me can attest to, I'm not a big fan of McKimson directed Bugs shorts (to put it mildly( And for good reason as most of said shorts were sub-par and not nearly as good as any of the rest of the Bugs cartoons. I would've been happy if McKimson just stayed making Foghorn Leghorn films, but being a Looney Tunes fad, it's just a sad matter of life that you'll going to have to sit through these sooner or later. For a Mckimson short it's good but it's still nothing compared to other non-McKimson directed ones. This animated short can be found on Disk 1 of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 3 set.My Grade: C+
