GazerRise Fantastic!

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . with this animated short, RABBIT HOOD. Following up on its classic live action feature ROBIN HOOD, this cartoon concludes with an archival footage cameo by that future Castro Boy Freedom Fighter himself, Errol Flynn. (Though most historians contend that John Wayne fingered Flynn for CIA Black Ops assassination because he felt that Errol was muscling in on his bridal pool with the release of CUBAN REBEL GIRLS, a significant minority of pundits argue that Il Duce never got over Bugs Bunny's tribute to the dashing Aussie here, getting his revenge over this slight a decade later.) Real Life Games of Thrones aside, RABBIT HOOD has many other notable aspects. Bugs Bunny goes through more costume changes that Frank Morgan did as THE WIZARD OF OZ, with each set of clothes similarly making a new man (or, in his case, rabbit). In his final King get-up, Bugs crowns the hapless Sheriff of Nottingham seven times, with his arise litany beginning, "Arise, Sir Loin of Beef." This part is topped only by the earlier bit in which Bugs bakes and frosts a cake made from scratch, finishing just in time for the woozy sheriff to catch a face full.

TheLittleSongbird This cartoon is a classic, just great fun from start to finish, with a perfect mix of slapstick and humorous wit, particularly when Bugs tricks the Sheriff into thinking he is the King. The animation is lovely and colourful, and the music is rousing like the sort of thing you would hear in a swashbuckler. The dialogue is truly funny, definitely some of the best dialogue in any Looney Tunes cartoon, and there are a great many like the Hunting Trilogy with terrific dialogue. The Sheriff is a great supporting character, and Bugs is still his rascally self with a touch of arrogance here too. Additionally adding to the enjoyment is the ending, the snippet from the 1938 classic The Adventures of Robin Hood was an inspired touch, while Mel Blanc as always is superb. All in all, I love this, for how clever and witty it is. 10/10 Bethany Cox

Robert Reynolds This is a very funny short and very dialog-centered, with visual gags relatively scarce. The verbal gags are beautiful, for the most part. Because I want to discuss some details, this is a spoiler warning: We see all kinds of signs in the beginning that strongly prohibit poaching anything (including eggs) on the King's property and then we see Bugs try and pick a carrot from the Royal Garden, only to trigger an alarm attached to the carrot itself. He's then caught, "crimson-fisted" by the Sheriff of Nottingham and manages to fool him and get away when we come up on the running gag-a gargantuan Little John showing up to declaim, "Don't you worry, never fear-Robin Hood will soon be here!", only no sight of Robin Hood is to be seen.The sheriff catches up to Bugs, only to be given a high-pressure sales pitch which has him buying a piece of royal ground (rather than lose it to "a couple from Kansas City". The sheriff starts building a house, until it dawns on him what he's doing. His slow burn is probably the best visual bit in the short.Bugs drops into Little John's arms for an installment of the running gag and escapes the sheriff by introducing the two men to one another over and over again and then sneaking off. It's a funny bit.The best gag in the short, hands down, is Bugs tricking the sheriff into thinking that Bugs is the King. Bugs announces that the sheriff is to be knighted for his service to the crown. With each "title" granted the sheriff, Bugs belts him on the head with an imposing scepter which progressively becomes more and more dented with each blow. The "titles" include Baron of Munchausen, Essence of Myrrh, Milk of Magnesia and Quarter of Ten. Bugs then observes of the sheriff that he's "Got lots of stamina!" and at the end, the sheriff thanks his "Majesty". While the sheriff is singing "London Bridge", Bugs elaborately (and rapidly) bakes and frosts a cake-so that the sheriff has something to fall face-first into when he finally collapses.Once again, we see the running gag, to which Bugs launches an inspired rant, about "helping the needy and the oppressed" and "skipping through Sherwood Forest", when Robin Hood finally shows in a beautiful close which I won't spoil here.This short is available on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection, Volume 4 and is well worth watching. Recommended.

Lee Eisenberg In "Rabbit Hood", Bugs Bunny makes mincemeat of a guard after trying to steal some of Prince John's royal carrots while Little John idiotically claims that Robin Hood is coming. Knowing that this is Bugs Bunny, you can probably guess what sorts of tricks he has up his sleeve (or wherever he keeps them).Cartoons like this just go to show that the creators really reached their apex in the late '40s and early '50s. I learned from "Bugs Bunny Superstar" that Bob Clampett, Chuck Jones, and that whole crowd liked to act out their cartoons during lunch breaks. I can imagine how much fun they must have had acting this one out! All in all, a great cartoon. It shows that entertainment just needs to be clever.
