7.2 | 1h37m | G | en | Animation

A collection of Warner Brothers short cartoon features, "starring" the likes of Daffy Duck, Porky Pig and Wile.E.Coyote. These animations are interspersed by Bugs Bunny reminiscing on past events and providing links between the individual animations which are otherwise unconnected. This 1979 feature-length compilation includes several of his best cartoons. Among the 11 shorts shown in their entirety are the classics "Robin Hood Daffy," "What's Opera, Doc?," "Bully for Bugs," and "Duck Amuck". The Bugs Bunny Road Runner Movie provides a showcase not only for Jones's razor-sharp timing, but for the work of his exceptional crew, which included designer Maurice Noble, writer Mike Maltese, composers Carl Stalling and Milt Franklyn, and voice actor Mel Blanc.

Reviews

Petri Pelkonen This movie, hosted by Bugs Bunny, contains of classic Warner Bros. cartoon shorts.The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie (1979) is directed by Chuck Jones and Phil Monroe.The voice artists of this movie are Mel Blanc, Arthur Q. Bryan and Nicolai Shutorov.I just saw this on a DVD and had the most fun watching it.The movie is full of funny, zany stuff.Like the whole "Kill the Wabbit" routine in "What's Opera, Doc?" Or Bugs the conductor making the opera singer go very high.Or Daffy being shot by Elmer various times in "Rabbit Fire".And the skunk Pepe Le Pew falling for the cat with a skunk painting in "For Scent-imental Reasons".The Road Runner flick is a lot of fun.It's a riot when Wile E. Coyote eats the earthquake pills.Then we have "Robin Hood Daffy" and lots of others.Certainly not a dull moment in The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie.

Arlis Fuson I am a huge fan of Bug's Bunny and the Looney tunes/ Merrie Melodies shorts and have watched them my entire life, but I am a fan of many cartoons and always got excited when they actually had a feature film. Here, we didn't get a movie, we just got a compilation of shorts.It had some new material added to piece it all together, but it was a let down because I didn't get to see anything new.I did like how Chuck Jones did this one for the most part and he also took this opportunity to get back Robert Clampett. Clampett always claimed he and only he created Bugs Bunny, but Chuck Jones did a part where Bugs Bunny talks about his "fathers" and Robert Clampton is left off the list..good for you Chuck.The thing I didn't like here was that most of the shorts featured my least favorite characters. I don't like Marvin The Martian, not a fan of when Daffy does his Duck Dodgers character. Never liked Pepe LePew and the Road Runner/Wylie Coyote shorts are always too repetitive.I love Looney tunes, but this was nothing more than a compilation of some of the most popular shorts and some of my least favorites so I gave it a small rating of 4 out of 10 stars.

Brian T. Whitlock (GOWBTW) 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!

skad13 Skip the unctuous opening and fast-forward to the highlights: Bugs battling a bull; Daffy Duck battling an unseen animator; and the all-time great WHAT'S OPERA, DOC?, in which the usual Bugs-and-Elmer chase is done in best operatic style
