How sad is this?

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

. . . Daffy Duck says as a smug aside to viewers after out-foxing both Elmer Fudd and an actual fox at the end of WHAT MAKES DAFFY DUCK? As always, Millennials "in the know" will not need to drill down very far beneath the surface to decipher which upcoming 21st Century American Calamities, Catastrophes, Cataclysms, and Apocalypti the always Cassandra-like Looney Tuners meant to portend with WHAT, especially if they watched this Nov. 18, 2016. That's the date Abe Lincoln tipped over in his Springfield, IL, tomb, as his successor 28 times removed (that is, President-Elect Rump) declared Open Season on ALL U.S. Citizens of Color (denoted by Daffy's dark coloration) with the appointment of a one-time Klansman as U.S. Attorney General. This means that 1,038 pending prosecutions for violations of Constitutional Amendments Nos. 13-15 will be dropped come Jan 20. "Title" searches are now underway at Ancestry.com for some of the most potentially "lucrative" American Blacks (including Oprah, LeBron, and Denzel) as Lazy Racist Southerners assume that Rump will use the U.S. Supreme Court pick stolen from Obama to appoint an even more Rabid "Originalist" than was the late Justice Scalia. This newcomer will lead the drive to nullify Lincoln's Legacy and the Sacrifice of 300,000 Union Martyrs to return to our Original U.S. Constitution,, every word of which was written by Lazy Racist Southerners.

Genre: Cartoon, old animation, hunting, funny. Actors: Mel Blanc (Daffy Duck and fox), Arthur Q. Bryan (Elmer Fudd). Main characters: Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd and the fox.What happens: For Daffy Duck in one of his older episodes, life's pretty tough at the moment for him because it's DUCK SEASON. He has to perform all these tricks, just to take a shower. Unfortunately, it doesn't work, as two unruly hunters, a fox and a human (Elmer Fudd), find him there…Message: It is polite not to hunt ducks.My thoughts: "What Makes Daffy Duck" being in my top ten favourites, this particular episode is very likable (I even liked it slightly more than some episodes when I didn't like Daffy Duck in general!). I like the old animation of Daffy Duck, he's all wonky unlike in his later cartoons with Charles M. Jones etc (I think Arthur Davis saw Daffy better with a wonkier style, even in the '60's). Also, not ONCE is Daffy shot but survives, unlike in a lot of later episodes. He is also more wily, cheeky and less stubborn than in his later episodes, which I like A LOT. Also, it is quite a funny episode, but not the most funny ever. What more do I have to say? I like Daffy, I like the animation and I like the humour! :-) Recommended to: People who prefer the older Daffy Duck to the newer one, people who like watching old cartoons and people who prefer Elmer Fudd not butting in so much, if you know what I mean and I recommend this to people who like funny cartoons! Enjoy! :-) 8 and a half out of 10.

Ooh, It's ducking season and guess what? Daffy Duck is a duck! Don't tell anyone, please. It's a secret. Two hunters want him. A fox and Elmer Fudd. You're going to let that fox take him, Elmer? He's your duck. You're going to let Elmer talk to you like that, Fox? He's your duck. The fight is on.An interesting cartoon. A daffy duck cartoon not about World War II and full of the Daffy Duck you know and love. Don't forget the old Duck costume trick. Daffy Duck couldn't fall for that. You don't know Daffy well enough. Ha! He can smell an imposter from -5 feet away. The river, silly. Ha.I recommend this cartoon for anyone.

It's duck season and, confidentially, Daffy is a duck. His problems are greater than usual when he is hunted by both Elmer Fudd and a fox. More than a match for one duck you would say? Not when the duck is as tricky as Daffy who sets about turning the two hunters against one another.I love Daffy Duck, but I greatly prefer him when he is crazy, in his early days - not only do I prefer his character but also the cartoons seemed to have more value placed upon them. Here we have such a cartoon. Daffy sums up the material best himself when he says `typical of the little black duck' as he spills oil to slip his captor. The gags are good as Daffy uses his crazy imagination to outsmart his captors - in a way it's like Bugs Bunny but Daffy has the added benefit of being absolutely off his head! This is very funny - I'm biased as I am a fan but I guess even those with a passing liking for the duck will enjoy this.Elmer and the fox are both pretty good - they have the ability to give as good as they get and give the impression that they are a physical match for Daffy and it's only his mental superiority that saves him. As said, Daffy is always at his best when he is slightly loony and that's just what he does here. He is funny, quick witted and a really fun character.Overall, this is typical of the little black duck - fast, witty, imaginative and crazily funny! An enjoyable outing for Daffy Duck that will easily please fans and hopefully win new ones.
