'The Wacky Wabbit' is loaded with some creatively unusual movements only Clampett would pull off. Elmer spinning in place and Bugs swimming into his hole are hilariously drawn-out, while Elmer clawing himself back with the pickaxe has a fun stretchiness that keeps the pace up.

I'm so happy this short is in the Public Domain, so people can check how good it is. The whole sequence of Bugs burring Elmer alive and then starts to sing and move like a dumbass always gets me. XD

It always used to be the "Fat Elmer" short I was the most divisive on but I've come to love it more with each rewatch (the same thing happened with 'Buckaroo Bugs'). It's certainly one of Clampett's best looking and has a great Bugs and Elmer dynamic.

Bryte’s gentle waves of motion work in harmony with calming audio to help you relax, unwind, and drift off. These soothing, head-to-toe movements create an immersive experience that feels like being lulled into a serene escape, transforming bedtime into a journey to amazing places. Where do you want to drift off to tonight?

All the motion blur is so interesting! Haven't watched this one since I was a kid and never really noticed all the visual signifiers of movement and sound

The ending fight takes that motion blur to the extreme. It's really impressive in how it's complete chaos and, yet, you can still make out the characters perfectly. It's always a blast to see the visual experimentation Clampett throws into his work.

I love the acting by Blanc and Bryan at the beginning when Bugs is talking about the gold that’s been found, it’s subtle but authentic to the situation 😂 My, Clampett really enjoyed the desert environment for Bugs in ‘42, didn’t he? Knocks it out of the park both times.

Looniest Tunes1 year ago

I love the really casual, natural sounding dialogue, especially the "where are you" after Elmer vanishes into the hole. Interestingly, Clampett seemed to use the desert in a really open/loose way. Both this and 'Buckaroo Bugs' have the world constantly changing between shots.

As talented as Mel Blanc was, his exclusive screen credit in the Warner Bros. cartoons meant that many other talented voice actors went unrecognized. Perhaps the most notable was Arthur Q. Bryan, the voice of Elmer Fudd. Much like Blanc, Bryan was originally a radio actor, and originated the "Elmer" voice there, before directors Tex Avery and Chuck Jones hired him for cartoons. Also like Mel Blanc, Bryan could sing, in character, and whenever he did so as Fudd, he stwuck (err, struck) gold! Here are three examples of Arthur Q. Bryan and Mel Blanc, as Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny, singing together. Clips from "The Wacky Wabbit" (Bob Clampett, 1942), "Robot Rabbit" (Friz Freleng, 1953), and "What's Opera, Doc?" (Chuck Jones, 1957)

'Bowery Bugs' has some of the finest voice acting in a short. Blanc plays Bugs with a delightfully obnoxious joy, making it his most psychotically jaded portrayal. Meanwhile, Bletcher gives Brody this vulnrability that hilariously contrasts with his threatening appearance.

Miami of Ohio transfer Eian Elmer is one of the most lethal spot up shooters in the portal currently. Finished the season shooting 44.2% FG in catch & shoot situations & with a 66.3% EFG%. Does a majority of his damage in spot up & transition opportunities. Elmer has such a smooth jump shot & displays lots of fluidity in his game. Really like his jumper mechanics. Was a hero for the Redhawks in their March Madness First-Four game against SMU, where he finished with 23 PTS (8/11 FG, 6/9 3PT).

This guy went to his local fair, after getting thirsty he decided to check out a stall and get some bug juice. Only problem is the bug juice is made with real bugs. It has scorpions and ants and other bugs in it too. The vendor was encouraging him to eat the bugs too, the fact that it is neon green makes it even worst for me, would you try this?

Online users noticed Sonny Doe was hopping across the floor and nearly launching himself into the wall before turning around and hopping some more. Many pointed out that his movements looked very similar to the frog like leaps he was doing in church a while back. 🤯🤯🤯#chrisean

It’s 1940, you’re seated in a dimly lit theatre, the screen flickers to life, and then he appears. Cool, Clever, and entirely new. "A Wild Hare" plays on, marking the official debut of Bugs Bunny, a character unlike anything you had seen before. Across from him, Elmer Fudd steps fully into the role that would define him for generations. The genius of Tex Avery has audiences stunned. An icon is born, animation would never be the same.

This guy is straight up playing streetball on the NBA court... He’s crossing defenders over, spinning past them, throwing no-look passes and finishing with wild dunks while the text keeps popping up “He plays streetball in the NBA” the whole time... Would you call that real NBA basketball or send him back to the park?

🟩 NEW: Scahill and Elmer on How Palestinian Armed Resistance Outsmarted Israel’s Surveillance Trap Jeremy Scahill shares a leaked internal memo from Palestinian resistance groups revealing how Israel used the January ceasefire to quietly plant tens of thousands of surveillance devices across Gaza—hidden in rubble, aid crates, and even hospital courtyards. But instead of dismantling the system, fighters turned it into a trap. They fed false intel through motion-triggered cameras, shared decoy memories with released Israeli captives, and manipulated the data Israel relied on to restart the war. “Every piece of information, no matter how small, is important to the investigator,” the memo noted. Jon Elmer explains that this deception was rooted in Yahya Sinwar’s counterintelligence legacy.—including his early role cracking down on collaborators inside Palestinian society. “Israel has no on-the-ground intelligence,” Elmer says. “They can operate inside Gaza for over 600 days and still not know anything about their captives.” Despite constant surveillance, airstrikes, and multimillion-dollar bribes, Israel has failed to find captives and recruit informants. Elmer credits that to the deep link between armed resistance and Gaza’s social fabric. “The resistance is part of Palestinian society,” he says. “The fighters are starving too. They’re not living any differently than the people in the camps.” But after all that—Elmer says—“Israel remains blind.” jeremy scahill | Ryan Grim | Jon Elmer | Murtaza Hussain

Burt Lancaster on why 'Elmer Gantry' (1960) was his easiest role & the filmmaker he used as a model for the character: “It was the easiest role I was ever given to play be cause I was, in essence, playing myself. Some parts you fall into like an old glove. 'Elmer Gantry' (1960) wasn’t really acting—that was me. But I used John Huston as my model for the role—his mannerism, the charming demeanor he has." ("Tough as Nails - The Life and Films of Richard Brooks", Douglass K. Daniel, 2011) P.S: On this day, 60 years ago, Richard Brooks' "Elmer Gantry" (1966) premiered in Los Angeles, USA.

Putin celebrated Christmas with military killers and declared that they are carrying out a “holy mission in Ukraine on God’s orders.” During the church service, a Christmas ornament fell off the tree — the kindly Putin picked it up and hung it back in place.

Sometimes when the Ukrainians get really energetic about retaking some particularly blasted piece of real estate the Russians will pull out of it, moonscape it with bombs, and walk back in shortly afterwards. The astonishing thing is that the AFU keeps falling for this.
