Michael_Elliott The Wabbit Who Came to Supper (1942) **** (out of 4)Hunter Elmer Fudd is hot on the trail of Bugs Bunny when he receives a telegram from his rich uncle. The uncle is leaving him three million dollars but in order to collect he can't harm anything and especially rabbits. Bugs decides to use this to his advantage and goes back to Fudd's home.This here is without question one of the greatest Bugs-Fudd shorts. Off the top of my head I can't really think of any others that are better and that is saying quite a bit when you consider how many great ones they made together. This film pretty much has everything you'd want including the non-stop action and of course there are plenty of great laughs. There are many highlights here but the abuse poor Fudd takes makes him the "good" guy here and the one you want to cheer for. Bugs throws plenty of insults his way and just check out the sequence where Elmer is forced to rock the rabbit. The ending is classic as well.

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!

kenny_c_hueholt An 8? Come on. This one deserves a ten. Friz Freleng did a wonderful job. Elmer inherits $1,000,000 from his uncle, but he doesn't get the money if he harms Bugs who makes this concept just about impossible. Classic scene when Bugs is outside Elmer's door pretending to freeze to death? Bugs: You know, this scene ought to get me the academy award.
