Details

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.

Alicia I love this movie so much
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
MisterWhiplash That being said, I have to say that some of my favorite Looney Tunes cartoons are in this first collection of shorts released in the span of the late 70's and 80's (another I watched maybe more than this one was Daffy Duck's Quackbusters). Here and there I wondered if a couple of the shorts were complete; they seemed to cut down the Rabbit Fire episode down by half, an a couple others didn't seem 100% either. Still, I would highly recommend it to those looking to get into the series (if by some chance not through another route like DVD). The cartoons Duck Amuck (as Daffy goes ape against the vindictive animator) and the one involving Bugs and the Opera singer top the list, while a few others are also quite appealing like Bugs against the Bull, Daffy as a would-be Robin Hood, and at least half of the Road-Runner shorts. That part of the film, which while given 2nd billing in the title (The Bugs Bunny and Road Runner Movie), only lasts a full 20 minutes or less. The enjoyment of those shorts will depend on if you like the Roadrunner shorts to start with, but there are some choice segments that even had me laughing. Not overall a great collection of shorts, but certain shorts are stand-out here.
Lindsey (miragedolphin7) I loved this since I was a young aspiring animator (I'm now a part-time writer),and my biggest influence was Warner Bros's animation and the work of Chuck Jones. When this finally came on Cartoon Network, I made sure to watch it.It contains the classics I've known for so long: "Robin Hood Daffy", the Wile E./Roadrunner shorts, "Louvre Come Back to Me", and the famous Bugs vs. Daffy shorts. It was great to see it all in its own little collection.It's such a shame this isn't out on DVD. I own the VHS copy with the original artwork.I recommend this to anyone who loves animation, especially WB's.
Movie Nuttball I thought that the characters were really funny and all had great personalities. The animation in My opinion was crisp, clean, and really clear. Not to mention beautiful! Most of the characters in this show are hilarious Looney Tunes characters that we all love. in My opinion these characters are the funnies and talented ever seen. In fact, The things that goes on in this series' cartoons are in My opinion nuts which that is what makes them hilarious! There are so many to like and laugh at and the silly things they do! If you like the original Looney Tunes and animated films then I strongly recommend that you watch this movie today!
Jackson Booth-Millard This is basically a compilation movie made from many, many Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons and only a few minutes of new footage. The cartoon movie is hosted by Bugs Bunny. It is basically a documentary like movie about the story of chasing in films. It also mentions about the Looney Tunes cartoons and its creators. The sequences included in the cartoon movie have Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd, Mervin the Martian and of course, most memorable cartoon chase, Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote. I think it is the long final sequence of the film with just half an hour or so of Road Runner and Coyote. Mel Blanc provides all the memorable voices. Pepe Le Pew was number 73, Road Runner number 47, Daffy Duck number 30, Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies number 20 and Bugs Bunny number 10 on The 100 Greatest Cartoons. Very good!
