Rabbit of Seville, 1950
Service with a smile!
Fun fact: Bugs grew an extra 5th finger in this scene to massage Elmer's head correctly and "play the piano" on his head.

Fun fact, this is the first time his bunny was ever animated with 5 fingers.

He has 4 fingers when he picks up the pink bottle and then 5 fingers when he picks up the green bottle also.

Thanks for this. This is probably my favorite cartoon episode from my childhood. I so seldom get to see it

Disappointed it wasn’t “Hare Oil”

I've started collecting animation cels recently and the cost of a golden era Looney Tunes cel, not a limited series, ho. Lee. Shit.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/154615523364?hash=item23ffcda824:g:PhEAAOSwUcNhRUWU for an example. I'll stick to the stuff I watched in the 1990s.

Some would say it is also deducible from the title.

Looney Tunes were the best cartoons ever, or that will ever will be made

Contemporary Disney shorts. Donald and Goofy are fucking hysterical, and Mickey used to be pretty funny too.

My absolute favorite episode is Falling Hare. Then, it's the one where Gossamer gets a makeover.

Here here. The madness, hilarity and execution of the animators and directors have not and cannot be replicated.

I showed my son this episode and now I hear him humming it from time to time. I had him watch "what's opera doc " and he loved it too haha

How many fingers do you have Bugs?!?!?! Make up your mind!
SmokyDoggg
4-5 depending on the situation, apparently. He also grows an extra finger in any episode where he plays the piano. Now THAT'S dedication!

Cartoons nowadays are crap. Who's with me?
BluePaladin42
Depends. The Owl House and Amphibia are top notch, for instance. But not in the same way the old Looney Tunes et al. were.
Thereminista
God, don't get me started! There are a few I've enjoyed, like Samurai Jack, but the majority are just awful. Bad writing, or bad animation.
Thereminista
I will not watch: Family Guy, barf. American Dad, barf. Johnny Bravo, nope. New Disney toons, yuck; and many others. The Classics rule!
UnholyMoses
Phineas and Pherb was one of the best cartoons ever made. But other than that? Yeah. They mostly suck.
Lilly64
They've got their ups and downs, but there really is nothing else quite like Loony Toons
Skywatcher16
eh. its hit and miss. but the ones that miss tend to miss HARD, while the hits tend to be simply above average.
SmokyDoggg
I hate the oversimplistic drawings and artwork, and the goofy brain-dead slapstick of,for example, Teen Titans Go.But I might be getting old
BluePaladin42
Some of the best gems made right now are animation tho. It seems there is a sweet spot between "For little kids" that is braindead, and-
BluePaladin42
-for adults which tries way to hard to be meaningful via relentless depression. But between those you have things like The Owl House.
SomeDetroitGuy
Ahh, yes, brain dead slapstick like that time they learned about mortgages and equity or the time the episode was all about different irony
SmokyDoggg
Then again I'm hopeful because Pixar and Disney are still putting out good animated films, and DC's animated stuff is still decent.
SmokyDoggg
DC as in movies, that is. Back in the day Batman TAS didn't patronize me. It respected my intelligence.

A man goes to see a therapist. He said "doc, I'm so depressed, nothing can cheer me up". The doctor says "I know, the great clown Figaro...
acrabb3
(Pagliacci, not Figaro) is in town, he will make you laugh." "But doctor, I am Pagliacci". Also Bugs disguises himself as a woman to fool...

Oh fun. Thanks!

It's an old joke, but it also works here because Bugs crossdresses and it's hot when doing so

This joke is also told by the Comedian in Watchmen, IIRC. It is funny in a tragic comedy kind of way.

This is how you introduce kids to classical music.
TellusEidolon
I was introduced to classical music by my grandparents having records /radio on in the background while we were over at them.
BlueSharpie4
Until you understand that classical music was used so they didn't have to pay royalties
Protonel
Don't really see how that makes a difference

Another one that many people only know because of Looney Tunes: https://youtu.be/qaC0vNLdLvY?t=75
brutalwookie
Yep! My fondness for classical music stems directly from loony tunes. My kids are also enjoying the same music for the same reasons
SoraHjort
WB needs to do more Looney Toons tunes (which I think they are now reusing "Merry Melodies" for now). One of the last ones we got was >

It’s A way, sure. Best to follow up with recordings of original works if you go this way. Or just start with the originals.

Thank you for letting me downvote this stupid comment 3 times.

Holy shit. Why did it triple up on it? How is it stupid though?

Looney tunes and tiny toons inspired me to play a certain song for my senior concerto years ago
BigKangDangaLangSlanga
This was the original idea behind Fantasia. Disney wanted to release new ones every once in a while to keep adding new music.

Dragging your 6 year kid with ADHD to a 3 hour orchestra performance, however, is not how to do it.

Except whenever you hear Ride of the Valkyries you think “Kill the wabbit” for decades, until someone uses it as their wrestling entrance.
quitepossiblygettingold
There was a cd in the 80’s or 90’s with the orchestra recordings for those cartoons. They did them in 1 take. All the singing and 1/?
quitepossiblygettingold
Character voices and time/tempo changes and sound effects, all at one place and performing together. I think it was called 2/?

“Bugs bunny on Broadway” but it looks like there was something else later on with the same name. Anyways if you can track that 3?
