Sorry, this movie sucks

Absolutely Fantastic

Little Red Riding Hood is depicted as a typical teenage girl from the 1940s, a "bobby soxer" with an extremely loud and grating voice (inspired by screen/radio comedienne.After she sings the first verse in the opening to establish this fact, Bugs Bunny pops out of her basket to ask where she's going. She replies that she's going to "bring a little bunny rabbit to my grandma's. Ta HAVE, see?"With this part of the story set up, the wolf is now introduced. The wolf switches a "Shortcut to Grandma's" sign, so that Red has to go through a long mountain path, while the wolf uses the real shortcut---a few short steps to the house. Seeing a note on the door that Grandma isn't home, the wolf sneaks inside and dresses like Grandma---only to find that a bunch of other wolves are similarly dressed and waiting in the bed for Red! The wolf growls for the others to "COME ON! COME ON! take a powder---this is ''MY'' racket!" and the other wolves leave muttering to themselves, and then a small wolf leaves from under the pillow.Once in bed, the wolf waits for Red to come to the door. But in a twist, the wolf isn't interested in eating Red, but rather the rabbit she brought with her. The wolf quickly shuffles Red out the door and tries looking for Bugs. Bugs, however, gets the better of the wolf and runs around the house, being 'chased' by the wolf. Along the way, Bugs subjects the wolf to the famous lots-of-doors in-and-out routine. The wolf, however, is constantly interrupted by Red, who continues asking the questions from the story, such as "That's an awfully big nose for you – ta HAVE." Towards the end of the cartoon, the wolf finally corners Bugs, but Bugs imitates the wolf's every action even when the wolf keeps telling Bugs to stop. After eluding the wolf by distracting him into singing ''Put On Your Old Gray Bonnet (With the Blue Ribbons on It)'', Bugs manages to get a glowing coal from the fireplace and sends the wolf to the ceiling by scorching his backside. When the wolf comes down, Bugs has a large shovelful of coals waiting to scorch the wolf.However, the wolf manages to catch his feet on the ends of two benches just in time, doing the "splits", facing the camera. Instead of simply kicking one of the benches away, Bugs proceeds to dump heavy weights into the wolf's arms. After clearing out just about everything in the house (except the kitchen sink), Bugs is about to apply the coup de grace on the wolf---by placing an olive branch on top of the mass of junk and furniture the wolf is holding---when Red comes back in, bellowing "Hey, GRANDMA!" (by now, Red had already commented on the wolf's big eyes, ears and nose, and his sharp teeth, one wonders what she was planning to ask next).By now, even Bugs has gotten sick of Red's interruptions, prompting himself to say, "I'll do it, but I'll probably hate myself in the morning." He descends the ladder, out of frame, there's a shuffling of the furniture... and now RED is the one desperately trying to avoid getting scorched (doing the "splits" in her dress, but modestly facing ''away'' from the camera), while Bugs and the wolf, arms around each other's shoulders, share a carrot and self-satisfied looks, and await the inevitable.This was ranked 39/50 greatest cartoons by Jerry Beck in 1994. 10/10Highly recommended!

My favorite cartoon of all time, Bugs Bunny or otherwise. An absolutely hilarious spin on Little Red Riding Hood, during the war years, and with Bugs Bunny to put the exclamation point on it. I've actually had friends call me up to tell me, "Turn your TV to channel 'x'", because this cartoon was on, and I was known for it. While there's lots of Bugs cartoons that have me in stitches, this one hit me so hard, I know it verbatim. Before that was known to my friends, most of whom are also Bugs junkies, while playing poker 1 night I said to the guy w/ the winning hand, "That's a pretty good hand for you...TO HAVE!" And the table busted out laughing knowingly, leading to talk of our fave Bugs episodes. Actually, my fave cartoon character ever is Foghorn Leghorn. Everything about that character and his episodes is timeless and hilarious. But this Bugs cartoon has everything that could possibly make you laugh. It was years before I realized Red's voice was that of Bea Benaderet of Petticoat Junction fame. Though once I learned that, the cartoon is even funnier in what all it includes- the little twists played on the classic "Red Riding Hood" story line during the war years. To this day, I still use the line, "....TO HAVE!" when complimenting someone for whatever reason, and am not at all surprised to hear reactions in the unlikeliest of places, including when ordering a beer at a Cubs game- "That's a pretty big case of beer for you... TO HAVE!" Instant chuckles. I'm not at all surprised this ranked 39th in cartoon fame as voted by animators and such. But it does make me wonder how much funnier the first 38 are.

In 'Little Red Riding Rabbit' we follow Little Red Riding Hood on her way to grandma. She brings him a bunny rabbit, Bugs Bunny of course. This time the wolf, hiding in grandmas bed, is not interested in the little girl (presented slightly more mature than you might expect), but in the rabbit. While the wolf is chasing Bugs, the girl interrupts them from time to time.This cartoon, the first to credit Mel Blanc for his voice work, has a great start and ending, both good for some great laughs. The middle part is pretty standard with the chasing moments, although I liked it when they were interrupted by a very annoying Little Red Riding Hood. Maybe this cartoon does not belong to the greatest, it is entertaining nonetheless.

Directed by Friz Freleng, "Little Red Riding Rabbit" is an excellent Bugs Bunny cartoon that spoofs the famous Little Red Riding Hood tale. In this particular film, Red Riding Hood is an annoying little brat with a stentorian voice who constantly interrupts the Big Bad Wolf as he chases Bugs around Granny's house. Whenever she does interrupt the wolf, trying to make some comment about his odd facial features, he is quite funny in his attempts to simply get rid of her. Her best moment occurs at the opening of this short as she skips down the road and, with her overbearing voice, sings "Five O'Clock Whistle." There are two especially memorable gags as the wolf chases Bugs around the house. One is a typical Friz Freleng gag in which Bugs runs through one doorway and exits through a different doorway, frustrating the wolf to no end. The other gag, reminiscent of "The Heckling Hare" (1941), has Bugs repeating everything the wolf says. Then Bugs gets the wolf to repeat some silly things HE says, and before the wolf knows it, he ends up singing "Put on Your Old Gray Bonnet." "Little Red Riding Rabbit" is a classic Warner Bros. cartoon. Friz Freleng loved to do parodies of the various fairy tales, and this film succeeds by a landslide.
