One of the best animated short of all time. While you can find other shorts fun in the way where you smile or puff air out of your nose, this short always gets actually laughs out of me. The humor is so good, the animation fun and expressive and the voice performances are what really elevates this short to its height.
Daffy wants to get Bugs during a hunt by faking it being rabbit season.
What really lift this short to new heights is the incredible performance by Mel Blanc. The director Chuck Jones and Blanc are in sync here, really understanding to stretch the jokes and deliver them perfectly. Both Bugs and Daffy is voiced to perfection and making the humor land so well.
This is just one of Joneses normal sticks. Simple concept, how many jokes can we make of it in 7 minutes? The gags and jokes are so well done and are genuinely funny. Even to the extent where it gets actual laughs from you. It´s not normal for me to laugh that hard at animated shorts but this one really does it every time. The comedic timing, the absurd stretch of the concept, the fun animation of Daffy´s beak, it all culminates into comedy gold.
The expression of characters also really helps the humor. The way characters look and react translate so well into funny over the top faces and situations the trademark of Jones in my opinion. The backgrounds are actually also really nice with the faded autumn colors of the woods really sticking out in my mind.
As said, I see this short as comedic perfection. Everything the short sets out to do it done to perfection and every time I watch it I´m never disappointed.
