Robot Rabbit is a Warner Bros. animated short of the Looney Tunes series. Originally released to theaters on December 12, 1953, it stars Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd as its main characters.
[edit] Summary
Elmer Fudd is shown as a carrot farmer who spots Bugs' rabbit hole. After shooting into an empty hole (Bugs had conveniently left the hole), he exclaims "The rabbit kicked the bucket"; then he and Bugs start dancing as a result until Elmer begins to realize Bugs is still very much alive. This leads to Fudd calling "ACME Pest Control" ("Hewwo? ACME Pest Contwol? Weww, I've got a pest I want to contwow.") for a robot with the express purpose of evicting Bugs. At different points, Bugs runs into a water fountain; which caused it to rust. Later, Bugs disguises himself as a female robot and finally causes the robot to follow him through a construction site. Inside, Elmer starts wondering how the robot fared before Bugs greets him by dumping the robot — or what is left of it — onto the floor.
[edit] Goofs
- The audio when Bugs remarks that the robot was going to cause him no end of trouble is out of sync.
