best movie i've ever seen.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

This movie puts the best of what Bugs and the gang got to share. Bugs Bunny explains the evolution of television in his own words, and the results are downright hilarious. He explains the characteristics of his friends and enemies in his world. Some of the cartoons they show are somewhat edited, but what's the big deal? This is the movie, and no one should be complaining about it. The only thing that was bugging Bugs is the "That's all Folks!" keeps coming on way too early, and Bugs doesn't play around when it's his movie being played. The Road Runner segments are always a classic, The Road Runner speeding New Mexico and Wile E. Coyote licking his chops to get that bird always leading to the Acme products backfiring on him every time. Though the chosen cartoons Warner Bros. used were perfect, and the documentary Bugs made was well made. Mel Blanc and other voice overs are golden. For Chuck Jones, he's the master of animation, and Phil Monroe deserves the hand shake for his part of making this movie a true golden hit. No Warner Bros. cartoon is truly original like Bugs Bunny and the Looney Tune gang. THAT'S ALL FOLKS! Rating 5 stars!

This is easily one of the best Looney Tunes compilation movies, along with Daffy Ducks Movie: Fantastic Island.However, the title, The Bugs Bunny/ Road Runner Movie, is a bit misleading. Bugs Bunny hosts this movie, but Road Runner doesn't co-host or co-star with Bugs, and he does not appear at all until near the end of the movie, when we first see a framed portrait of him, followed by clips from many Road Runner cartoons. Road Runner doesn't even appear in the opening sequence. The more recent video release cover (from 1997) would also make it seem like Road Runner appears equally with Bugs (the original poster features almost every character who appears in this movie). The only reason I can think of for it being called The Bugs Bunny/ Road Runner Movie would be to tie-in with The Bugs Bunny/ Road Runner Show, which I think was still being broadcast at the time of this movie.However, this is still a great movie. Bugs Bunny shows viewers around his mansion and presents clips from many Warner bros. cartoons, most of which feature Bugs Bunny (some don't feature Bugs or Road Runner). All of the cartoons shown are directed by Chuck Jones. Highlights include Duck Amuck, Rabbits Feat, What's Opera, Doc?, Operation: Rabbit (one of Wile E. Coyotie's pairings with Bugs), Hare-Way To The Stars, For Scent-Imental Reasons, and more. There are a lot of classic Chuck Jones cartoons not included, such as The Rabbit of Seville, One Froggy Evening, and The Scarlett Pumperknickle. Also not included are the Ralph Wolf and Sam Sheepdog cartoons (in fact, there are no cartoons featuring only rarely-used characters or one-shot characters). Since the movie only includes cartoons directed by Chuck Jones, there are no appearances by Yosimite Sam (except for on a picture), Sylvestor (though he did appear in a handful of Chuck Jones cartoons), Tweety, Foghorn leghorn, or Speedy Gonzoles.Still, this is one of the best compilation movies, and most of the cartoons presented here are the full versions, with the exception of openings, closings, and credit sequences (even then, a handful of cartoons have their title cards shown). Operation: Rabbit and Long-Haired hare are both shortened, but all other cartoons that are not presented in clips are otherwise complete.

This is basically a compilation movie made from many, many Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons and only a few minutes of new footage. The cartoon movie is hosted by Bugs Bunny. It is basically a documentary like movie about the story of chasing in films. It also mentions about the Looney Tunes cartoons and its creators. The sequences included in the cartoon movie have Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd, Mervin the Martian and of course, most memorable cartoon chase, Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote. I think it is the long final sequence of the film with just half an hour or so of Road Runner and Coyote. Mel Blanc provides all the memorable voices. Pepe Le Pew was number 73, Road Runner number 47, Daffy Duck number 30, Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies number 20 and Bugs Bunny number 10 on The 100 Greatest Cartoons. Very good!

Yes, the gags are somewhat repetitive: Wile E. Coyote plunges to the ground 15 times, is crushed with rocks 11 times and baits the roadrunner three times with "Free Bird Seed." In all, 10 Acme products appear in this movie, in which Bugs Bunny and other characters sport clever disguises no fewer than 12 times. There are five "wabbit season"/"duck season" face-offs. Daffy Duck gets shot 10 times.But it never gets old. I have loved this movie since I was a little boy, and have viewed it, literally, hundreds of times. That's the genius of Chuck Jones (animator) and Mel Blanc (voices).The many shorts featured in this compilation include Daffy's battle with an off-screen animator, Bugs fighting a bull and getting revenge on a grumpy opera singer, two intergalactic run-ins with Marvin the Martian, "What's Opera, Doc?" (which is, as Bugs describes it, "the entire 18 hours of Richard Wagner's 'Ring of Nibaloone--Nibalane--Nibalu--Nibalung' ... squashed ... down to seven minutes") and a 20-minute segment of classic roadrunner gags.
