Well that cartoon made me love Elmer Fudd.... and I think singing both parts of that cartoon out loud at high volume made my wife fall in love with me.
ColonelKong	post #4  on June 30, 2004 - 8:30 AM PDT   Can't wait for this set, I'm really looking forward to looping What's Opera Doc? about five or six times. There are lots of other great cartoons in that list too. (I'm also glad that Porky in Wackyland and One Froggy Evening are also in there.) The first Looney Tunes Golden Collection was probably my favorite DVD of last year, I'd be very surprised if the second set didn't become my favorite of this year. As great as the old Disney and Warner Brothers cartoons are, I'd also love to see some cartoons from other studios on DVD. A set of Tex Avery's MGM cartoons would be great, I'd also like a DVD set of old Terrytoons shorts like the Heckle and Jeckle cartoon that's on tv at the end of Kill Bill: Volume 2. A DVD set of cartoons by Ub Iwerks (do any of the Disney sets out right now include any of his work?) would be very nice too, Sony/Tristar/Colombia's Lost Skeleton of Cadavra DVD included the Iwerks cartoon Skeleton Frolic (it was shown in front of the film during its rather limited theatrical run), I thought that was a neat extra.

Avery started off at Warner Bros., but he really kicked his cartoons into crazy, violent high gear at MGM. Personally, I think the opening of RED HOT RIDING HOOD, in which the characters all get angry at the narrator for making them all do the Little Red Riding Hood story again, is one of the funniest cartoon moments ever. Obviously the creators of WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT also enjoyed that cartoon, since Jessica Rabbit is a clear homage to Avery's title character of that cartoon. > ---------------------------------
