TheLittleSongbird The Wabbit Who Came to Supper by all means is not my favourite Looney Tunes cartoon but I did find it very entertaining. The cartoon does start off slow and I too found the closing gag on the weak side, I just found it abrupt. However, the animation is great especially on DVD, where the colours are so lush and the interiors of Elmer's house really nicely done. The only minor disappointment animation-wise is that Bugs occasionally looks odd. The music as always from Carl Stalling is energetic and quirky, the dialogue is witty and funny and the sight gags are clever especially the premature New Year gag. I also liked it when Elmer had Bugs in his arms singing to him and when Bugs tries to pettily dupe him out of a nickel. Bugs is great fun, rascally yet likable, while Elmer while dim-witted is really quite endearing. Mel Blanc and Arthur Q. Bryan once again are stellar with the voice work. The story isn't exactly original, but it is good, and overall, this cartoon is entertaining. 8/10 Bethany Cox
Lee Eisenberg "The Wabbit Who Came to Supper" gives one the idea of milking a situation to the nth degree. When Elmer Fudd - looking like a walking heart attack (they were making him fat at this time so as to resemble his voice artist Arthur Q. Bryan) - receives a letter telling him that he'll inherit $3 million as long as he doesn't harm any animals, especially rabbits, Bugs Bunny (who overheard Elmer reading the telegram) promptly invades Elmer's house and does everything possible to annoy Elmer. How I would love to try that! It just goes to show why these cartoons were so great: they were never afraid to pull any wacky gag that they could think of. And this one has some great gags! So check it out. You're sure to love it.And remember: don't go down there; it's dark!
slymusic Directed by Friz Freleng, "The Wabbit Who Came to Supper" is an excellent Warner Bros. cartoon starring that celebrated duo Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd, voiced by, respectively, Mel Blanc and Arthur Q. Bryan. When this cartoon was made, Bugs and Elmer were not yet fully developed in terms of their physical appearance (e.g., Bugs' face and Elmer's weight), but they WERE fully developed in terms of their comic personalities. Bugs is ever the prankster, minding his own business until someone comes along and gets in his way. And Elmer is the dopey, stupid hunter easily taken advantage of by Bugs. In "The Wabbit Who Came to Supper," Elmer receives a telegram from his Uncle Louie regarding a three-million-dollar inheritance, which Elmer will lose if he harms any animals, especially WABBITS! So what does Bugs do? He moves in with Elmer...uninvited! My favorite highlights from this short include the following. As Elmer chases Bugs around the house, the clock strikes midnight and Bugs tricks Elmer into believing it is New Year's Day; they both burst into a chorus of "Auld Lang Syne" before Elmer realizes that the month is July! When Elmer reads Uncle Louie's telegram (to the tune of "We're in the Money"), all of his hunting dogs have frighteningly mean looks on their faces as they bare their teeth at Bugs. While invading Elmer's shower, Bugs sings "You're Just an Angel in Disguise," and as he struggles with one particular high note, he steps out of the shower and walks towards the piano, striking the note that is giving him trouble. And when Elmer sings "Rock-a-Bye Baby" while holding Bugs in his arms, the wise-guy wabbit tells him to swing it! In closing, "The Wabbit Who Came to Supper" is a quite an outstanding Bugs Bunny/Elmer Fudd cartoon. The moral is this: if you are ever about to receive an inheritance, don't shoot any wabbits!
Petri Pelkonen Elmer Fudd is once again trying to hunt Bugs Bunny after he hears he's going to inherit three million dollars from uncle Louie if he doesn't harm animals, especially rabbits.And that is a hard thing to do after Bugs Bunny comes to his house.The Wabbit Who Came to Supper from 1942 offers many funny moments, even though it lasts only eight minutes.Mel Blanc is the voice of this animated bunny character and Elmer's voice is Arthur Q. Bryan.Bugs Bunny is one of the greatest comedians ever.He may be a cartoon character but he has comedic talents at least as much Jerry Lewis or Jim Carrey.Watch the goofing of Bugs Bunny in this classic and enjoy.That's all, folks!
