Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: United States Marine Corps

Many Warner Brothers cartoons released during World War II had patriotic themes. This nod to the courage of Marines (at the end, Bugs marches off to "Berlin, Tokyo and points East") was greatly appreciated by the Marine Corps, which immediately inducted Bugs into the Corps and kept him there until the war was over, when he was discharged with the rank of Master Sergeant.

Answer: Groucho Marx

"Slick Hare" sets nightclub employee Elmer Fudd on a murderous chase after Bugs Bunny. To avoid Fudd, Bugs hides in Carmen Miranda's headdress and also performs a comic softshoe routine. One scene involves Bugs, pretending to be a waiter, ordering a pie made by chef Fudd and then smashing it in Fudd's face.

After Bugs does it a second time, Fudd finally catches on and tries to hit Bugs with a pie, only to miss and have the pie hit Humphrey Bogart instead.

3. In "Mississippi Hare" (1949), Bugs disguises himself as a Southern belle aboard a Mississippi paddle steamer. As so often, Bugs' cover is blown when what happens to his disguise?

Answer: Bugs' skirt is torn, revealing his tail

In this episode, the Southern gentleman flirts with Bugs' Southern belle persona. When he sees Bugs' tail and discovers that Bugs is a rabbit, he flinches and then walks right off the boat and into the river. Bugs shrugs, "Oh well, we almost had a romantic ending!"

4. Classical music was regularly featured in Warner Brothers cartoons. In "Long-Haired Hare" (1949), Bugs had a conflict with his neighbor Giovanni Jones, an opera singer, which ended up with Bugs comprehensively sabotaging Jones' solo performance that evening. Dressed as a bobby soxer, Bugs approaches Jones backstage for an autograph, and flatters the singer by gushing "Frankie and Perry just aren't in it!" What Frankie is Bugs referring to?

Answer: Frank Sinatra

Teenage girls swooned over Frank Sinatra and Perry Como long before the Beatles arrived.

The autograph scene (where Bugs hands Jones a lit stick of dynamite instead of a pen) is only part of Jones' troubles. Later in the episode Bugs, disguised as conductor Leopold Stokowski, makes Jones sustain a high note so long that he turns various colors and rolls on the floor in anguish while his shirt front rolls up like a window shade.

Answer: The King

As the King, Bugs knights the Sheriff by repeatedly whacking him on the head with his scepter while conferring a list of nonsensical titles such as Sir Loin of Beef, Earl (oil) of Cloves, Baron of Munchausen, and Milk of Magnesia.

"Rabbit Hood" is also notable for the inclusion of a short clip of Errol Flynn as Robin Hood from the 1938 film.

Answer: Square dance

Square dances are notable for being "called," in that the upcoming dance steps are announced by a caller who controls the pace of the dance. Bugs wreaks havoc on the two brothers by calling steps that lead them to injure each other ("Whop him low and whop him high, stick your finger in his eye"). Ultimately Bugs promenades the brothers over a cliff.

Answer: Barber scissors

"What would you want with a wabbit? Can't you see that I'm much sweetah, I'm your little senorita!" The scissors, of course, are used to snip off Elmer's suspender buttons so that his pants fall down.

Music from the opera provides the soundtrack to a sequence of tricks that barber Bugs plays on Elmer, and the cartoon ends in a brilliant arms race where Bugs and Elmer chase each other with deadly implements from axes through firearms to increasingly large cannons, which Bugs subverts by offering Elmer flowers, candy, and an engagement ring, to which the delighted Elmer responds by donning a wedding gown. The cartoon ends with groom Bugs dropping bride Elmer several stories into a giant wedding cake.

Answer: Wilhelm Richard Wagner

Bugs is very fetching in braids and a pointy helmet with wings, and Elmer serenades him with lovestruck arias: "Oh Brunhilda, you're so wovewy!" to which Bugs replies "Yes I know it, I can't help it!" This cartoon is unusual for not employing the traditional frame of Bugs defeating his antagonist, but is rather a comic version of parts of the opera.

9. In "Bully for Bugs" (1953), Bugs accidentally turns up in a bullring ("I knew I shoulda taken that left toin at Albakoikee!") where he encounters a belligerent bull. After the bull charges Bugs and sends him flying out of the stadium, Bugs delivers the classic Looney Tunes line "Of course you realize this means war!" From a movie of which classic comedy group, whose characters included a horn-honking mute and a hustler with an Italian accent, did this line originate?

Answer: The Marx Brothers

Creator Chuck Jones was explicit about how much Bugs' anarchic wise guy character was influenced by Groucho Marx. The line "Of course you realize this means war!" was delivered by Groucho in "Duck Soup" (1933).

Bugs dons a matador costume for much of "Bully for Bugs" and uses the matador's red cape in many hilarious ways to control and ultimately vanquish the bull.

10. In "Hare Trimmed" (1953) Bugs foils the plans of Yosemite Sam, who wants to marry a wealthy widow and seize her fortune. What classic Looney Tunes pickup line does Sam use on the widow?

Answer: "Come with me to the Casbah, and we will make beautiful music together!"

At first Sam seems to be succeeding with the widow, until Bugs shows up disguised as a suave French rival. Later Bugs dresses up as the widow and leads Sam on a merry chase that ends with Bugs in a wedding gown walking up the aisle with Sam to be married.

But the skirt of the wedding gown is accidentally torn away revealing Bugs' tail, and when Sam notices he runs out the door screaming. Bugs clutches his bridal bouquet and mockingly moans "Boo-hoo-hoo! Always a bridesmaid but never a bride. Boo-hoo-hoo!"
