Woo hoo! Woo hoo! The classic Looney Tunes cartoons have
finally made it to DVD.
Looney Tunes: The Premiere Collection serves up 28 shorts on
two discs:
Disc One:
"Elmer's Candid Camera" (1940)—Elmer Fudd's out to shoot a
wabbit—this time, with a camera. Unluckily for him, his
subject is Bugs Bunny.
"Bugs Bunny and the Three Bears" (1944)—Goldilocks is nowhere
to be found, but the Three Bears think Bugs is just right—to
eat. Bugs, however, has other plans for the hapless trio.
"Fast and Furry-ous" (1949)—Accelerati Incredibulis meets
Carnivarious Vulgaris on a desert highway. Carnivarious
Vulgaris attempts to capture Accelerati Incredibulis. Final
Score: Accelerati 1, Carnivarious 0, despite the latter's use
of several fine Acme products.
"Hair-Raising Hare" (1946)—Bugs finds that monsters really do
live such in-teresting lives.
"The Awful Orphan" (1949)—In this precursor to Single White
Female, a persistent mutt shows Porky why dogs are man's best
friend. Problem is, Porky's a pig.
"Haredevil Hare" (1948)—Decades before Neil Armstrong went to
the Moon, a brave rabbit made one giant hop for mankind.
Unfortunately, Marvin the Martian was waiting for him, with an
Aludium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator.
"For Scent-imental Reasons" (1949)—This Oscar-winning short
has "ze locksmith of love," Pepe LePew, pursuing a reluctant
pussycat. "Do not come wiz me to ze Casbah," Pepe tells her.
"We shall make beautiful musicks togezzer right here!"
Pussycat is unimpressed.
"Frigid Hare" (1949)—Bugs takes a wrong turn at Albuquerque
and winds up at the South Pole, pursued by an Eskimo. (Since
there are no Eskimos at the South Pole, Bugs really made a
wrong turn.) Bugs whips out the lipstick, and transsexual
antics ensue.
"The Hypo-Chondri-Cat" (1950)—Hubie and Bertie the mice force
Claude the hypochondriac cat to confront his inner demons—and
angels.
"Baton Bunny" (1959)—Warner Brothers Symphony guest conductor
Bugs Bunny conducts "Morning, Noon, and Night in Vienna" by
Franz Von Suppe to an overly appreciative insectile audience.
"Feed the Kitty" (1952)—In what may be the greatest Looney
Tunes cartoon ever made, ferocious bulldog Marc Anthony is
reduced to a big ol' softie by a cute kitten. (The
gut-wrenching "cookie" scene was later paid homage in
Monsters, Inc.)
"Don't Give Up the Sheep" (1953)—Neither wind nor rain nor
Wile E. Coyote look-a-like Ralph the Wolf shall keep dutiful
employee Sam Sheepdog from protecting his flock.
"Bugs Bunny Gets the Boid" (1942)—Bugs is targeted for
carrion-ization by a family of buzzards.
"Tortoise Wins By a Hare" (1943)—In one of the rare instances
in which Bugs loses, Cecil, the Lance Armstrong of racing
tortoises, keeps outracing Bugs, who resorts to dressing up as
an old man to pry Cecil's secrets out of his shell. The
secret? "Streamlining."
Disc Two:
"Canary Row" (1950)—Tweety Bird suspects he may have spotted a
feline. This suspicion is shortly (and repeatedly) confirmed,
prompting Tweety to declare that he did, in fact, see a
putty-tat.
"Bunker Hill Bunny" (1950)—In this gripping account of one of
the Revolutionary War's lesser-known battles, Bugs Bunny
defends Fort Bagel Heights against "Hessian oppression" in the
form of Yosemite Sam. True to historical record, Sam is soon
rendered a "Hessian without no aggression," prompting him to
join forces with his erstwhile enemy.
"Kit For Cat" (1948)—On a frigid evening, homeless tomcat
Sylvester finds refuge with mansion-and-yacht owner Elmer Fudd.
Unfortunately, a cute orange kitty also seeks shelter in the
Fudd residence. There can be only one.
"Putty Tat Trouble" (1951)—One white Chwistmas, a hungry
orange feline intrudes upon Sylvester and Tweety's twisted
co-dependent relationship.
"Bugs and Thugs" (1954)—When pampered urbanite Bugs Bunny gets
mixed up with criminal masterminds Rocky and Mugsy, the
talkative rabbit is forced, not only to shut up, but to "shut
up shuttin' up."
"Canned Feud" (1951)—If Alfred Hitchcock directed a cartoon
version of Home Alone, it might look something like this.
Sylvester, left behind in a house full of canned food and no
can opener, inexorably descends into madness and horror, aided
by a sadistic mouse.
"Lumber Jerks" (1955)—The ambiguously gay gopher duo go
looking for their missing tree. What they find instead is some
fabulous home furnishings.
"Speedy Gonzalez" (1955)—The fastest mouse in all Mexico makes
his debut in this Oscar-winning short, a class warfare
allegory in which cheese factory owner-slash-capitalist
oppressor Sylvester tries to keep the working mouse down.
"Tweety's S.O.S." (1951)—Tweety once again sees a bad ol'
putty-tat, this time on a cruise ship. The result? Pain,
exciting and new.
"The Foghorn Leghorn" (1948)—Henery the rising young chicken
hawk is determined to bag himself a chicken—even if it is a
loudmouthed Schnook.
"Daffy Duck Hunt" (1949)—A mentally unstable Daffy Duck
power-dives his way into duck hunter Porky Pig's life, driving
a wedge between him and his dog, and spraying them both with
copious amounts of thpittle in the process.
"Early to Bet" (1951)—The Gambling Bug gets more than he
bargained for when he nibbles on a cat, and stumbles into a
weird sadomasochistic relationship between cat and bulldog
involving gin rummy and a Penalty Wheel. David Lynch couldn't
come up with material this kinky.
"Broken Leghorn" (1959)—Proving that no good deed goes
unpunished, Foghorn Leghorn slips childless old Prissy Hen a
fertile egg—inadvertently laying the seeds of his own
destruction when the egg hatches his successor.
"Devil May Hare" (1954)—In his first appearance, the Tasmanian
Devil is on the loose—with an appetite for tigers, lions,
elephants, buffaloes, donkeys, giraffes, octopuses,
rhinoceroses, moose, ducks…and rabbits. A nonplussed Bugs
proceeds to bury Taz in the cold, cold ground!!
