Episode Transcript
[00:00:00] Speaker A: Foreign.
[00:00:15] Speaker B: How the hell are you out there? Thank you for joining us. This is Men of a Certain Five. I am Brian Parks, and I'm going to be joined by my buddy Phil Rizzo for another wonderful pod. Phil, say hello.
[00:00:25] Speaker C: Yo, what is going on? What's up, Bomber? Another pod. Love it.
[00:00:30] Speaker B: Another pod, another list. You know, we can't help ourselves. Here we go again. You know, now you know. Thank you for hopping in on this. You know, we're going to circle back to where we started, and I'm sure we'll be back here again many times down the road. We got to go back to some Looney Tunes here, you know? How do you. How you feeling over there?
[00:00:46] Speaker C: Love it. I mean, I love it. Like, we knew that we would have multiple Looney Tunes pods. It was only right that we started out with Bugs Bunny.
And I think the next natural progression is what we're doing today for sure.
[00:00:58] Speaker B: No doubt, no doubt.
You know, I know it's been a little while since we had a pod out there, but thank you for sticking around with us here.
Any thoughts, you know, anything else we need to fill in, Fill the folks in on here? What's going on with you, Phil? You know?
[00:01:12] Speaker C: Oh, not, man. Just. Just loving. Loving the research for this thing, you know, so.
So we're doing. We're doing top five Daffy Duck cartoon shorts. Baby Daffy Duck today.
Yep. Because we are men of a certain five, and we're also four years old.
[00:01:28] Speaker B: I really. I realized you. You set it up for me to say it, and I just Right by it, I was like, all right, man. You know?
[00:01:34] Speaker C: I was like, yeah, tell them what we're doing today. You're like, all right, we're here with a pod.
[00:01:38] Speaker B: Let me get into some banter here, Phil. What's going on? Yeah, I know that. That was. That was a. Well, you know, that was almost classic Daffy Duck style right there.
[00:01:45] Speaker C: Well, the reason I. The reason I wanted to. You know, I mean, anybody who clicks on this thing, they know what the topic is anyway. But, uh, the reason I wanted to bring it up is because I wanted to say it was so much fun doing the research for this, you know, revisiting some. Some shorts I've probably seen a gazillion times. But, yeah, this was a tough one. I know. I know. We kind of talked about. We were texting back and forth, not which cartoons we picked, but how tough it was to narrow this one down to five. Almost as tough as the bugs. I think.
[00:02:10] Speaker B: Maybe I was gonna ask you what was tough or you think, was it the same, or was it. Was Bugs tougher? Daffy, what do you think?
[00:02:15] Speaker C: I feel like Bugs was a little tougher.
[00:02:17] Speaker B: Um, I feel like.
[00:02:18] Speaker C: Like three of these fell right into place and then the fourth one pretty quickly, and then the only one I had trouble with was number five. Like, what to include there?
[00:02:27] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. I mean, to be honest, I could have probably. I mean, my top three were pretty unmovable. So after that, it could have been really. It could have been 10 different ones there or whatever, you know? Yeah.
[00:02:37] Speaker C: We were also speculating, folks, how many of these we would have in common. I mean, there's only five, and there's a bunch of Daffy Duck cartoons out there, but we're thinking absolute rock solid. We have at least two in common.
Probably three, maybe four.
[00:02:53] Speaker B: I'm thinking at least three.
[00:02:54] Speaker C: Yeah, I'm thinking two for sure. I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna say three if we.
[00:02:59] Speaker B: I can't imagine we both have five the same, but. No, you never know.
[00:03:03] Speaker C: No, yeah, you never know. You never know. That's right.
Either way, it'll be fun to talk about. We'll get to that in a second. But first, listen, folks, check us out. Tick tock Instagram threads at Men of a certain five. That's m e n o f8, c e r t a I n the number five. Or you can Google us at Men of a Certain Five, all spelled out F I V e gmail dot com. Let us know what's going on out there. We'd love to hear your top five. Daffy Duck, Bugs Bunny, freaking Foghorn Leghorn, top five. Whatever you want to throw at us. We'd love to read it and.
And see what's going on out there. What do you think of that?
[00:03:40] Speaker B: I think it's banging. Now, we had to mention a couple of things here. Now, first of all.
Well, you know, I was gonna say was real quick. The hilarious thing is that I don't think we had either one of us had us. When we did the Bugs Bunny one. I don't think either one of us had this one cartoon. The same on that list, did we? I think we both picked five different ones.
Wow, that's crazy going along with that. Well, although I could be wrong. What I'm gonna say was, which one of these did you pick? Because this is what I was gonna say was, I think we got to throw the caveat out here of how we're doing this with the Hunting trilogy.
[00:04:14] Speaker C: Now, y talking about whether or not to you know, parrot sketch, the Hunting Trilogy, or count it as one. Or just go ahead and, you know, free ball it and see where it falls. We pretty much decided to count it as one.
[00:04:28] Speaker B: Right, right.
[00:04:30] Speaker C: Because that's kind of what I did.
[00:04:31] Speaker B: Which we did not do with Bugs. Now, do you remember which one you put on the Bugs list? Yeah, Rabbit, I think I put. That's what I think I put. So we did have at least one. The same.
[00:04:39] Speaker C: I think we had the one. Yeah. I mean, we had to include one of them. You know what? I always thought that was the first one. It wasn't. Oh, Rabbit.
Yeah, I didn't know that.
[00:04:47] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:04:48] Speaker C: When I was looking at the years of the ones that I was picking. Now, obviously, like Bugs Bunny has more cartoon shorts to him and he has more that are strictly him. However, there are some on my list that like, are just like the Hunting Trilogy. It's Bugs and Daffy or it's Daffy and somebody else.
You know, I'll give you an example. One of my honorable mentions.
You know, no spoilers, but Alibaba Bunny was one of my honorable mentions. And that's technically it's a Bugs Bunny cartoon. But obviously they're both in it. So it's, you know.
[00:05:19] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:05:19] Speaker C: Counting it as a Daffy, just, you know, just like that.
[00:05:21] Speaker B: Well, well, I think that was a good. It's funny you brought that up because I was gonna get into that a little bit as we got got on here. But you're so right. I mean, even though Bugs did a million cartoons, you think with Elmer or Yosemite Sam or even Daffy, he did have so many one offs with so many other random people where Daffy Duck, to be honest with you, there's not a lot of probably out there with him by himself. He's mostly almost always with Porky or Bugs and even later on Speedy Gonzalez, believe it or not, which I don't remember seeing a lot of those growing up, but.
[00:05:48] Speaker C: Yeah, well, there were a lot. Like in the golden age.
No, you're dead right. Yeah.
[00:05:53] Speaker B: Right.
[00:05:53] Speaker C: I mean, I feel like very early on a lot of the black and whites, he was just like this crazy ass duck in a bunch of different
[00:05:58] Speaker B: situations, which I. I do love that, by the way. I know he morphed over to this Daffy that we kind of all love more. But yeah, there was something about that Looney Wacky. I mean, to me, when you think of Looney Tunes, it was that Daffy Duck acting like an absolute Mormon, just
[00:06:11] Speaker C: going crazy all the time. Yeah.
[00:06:12] Speaker B: I Used to love that.
[00:06:13] Speaker C: Yeah, no, me too. But, but you're right, like, I think. Definitely.
Yeah, we settled into a nice, yeah, you know, this late 40s, early 50s sort of zone, which is where, where I live when I was doing the bugs list, that's pretty much where they all fell. Like, I mean, that to me, in my opinion, is a golden age of no Doubt of Looney Tunes, so.
[00:06:33] Speaker B: No doubt.
[00:06:34] Speaker C: Yeah, no, and listen, hey, listen, if you're into podcast, you want to check out something different? We also do another pod, the top, sorry, the Warp Top 10 podcast. That's a Star Trek podcast that Bomber and I also do.
You can go ahead and check that out. That's a top 10 podcast. Unless we're talking about one of Bomber's tracks, in which case he's going through Next Generation, checking them out, talking about each episode. So, yeah, if you're in your little Star Trek, get a little Trekkie in you go ahead and check out the other pod that we do. It's the Warp Top 10 podcast. You can check that out wherever you get your podcast as well. But ain't no Star Trek today, baby.
[00:07:07] Speaker B: Hey, you know what? It gets a little Looney Tunes over there. Don't, don't, don't kid yourself about that, you know, but yeah, we're, we're going into some daffy here.
Shoot me now.
Any rhyme or reason as to how you went about this list? You just picked your favorite ones or were there ones that you were like, you felt like he had great moments in, or was it. What was there any, any, any thought to this here?
[00:07:26] Speaker C: Great question. I, you know, I instinctually, I gravitated towards the one that I watched a lot when I was a kid. The ones that I, that made, you know, made me laugh the most.
So, yeah, I gotta say, one is on here because I think it's just iconic.
But the other ones are just. Yeah, my favorite situations.
Laughing at the gags over and over, even, Even after I've seen it, you know, 50, 60 times.
Yeah, I mean, kind of like that. Like, really no brainer, nothing really scientific to it. Just whichever ones I just, you know, personally love the most, I kind of put them on. How about you?
[00:08:00] Speaker B: Yeah, no, same. You know, it's funny, I, I, there was ones that, you know, I kind of a bunch popped into my head immediately, and then when I kind of had to sift through and find someone. Oh, yeah, I remember this one and this one. And you know, I kind of honorable mentioned some of those. But, but, but, but the ones That I loved. I kind of had pretty much. At least the top three were definitely on there for me. And after that, like I said, I could have picked a few different ones and I kind of felon 4 and 5 probably could. I could kind of swap 4 and 5 tomorrow if I had to, but. But I. I was. I'm happy with the five. I got it down to the five that I like the best, I would say. Yeah.
[00:08:40] Speaker C: Yeah, me too. I think. I think I made the right call. I actually have rewatched the two that were in contention for five, and it was kind of a no brainer after I rewatched them. I will say, though, that one, like you said, they popped into your head as soon as we decided to come up with the five. As soon as I thought about it, one popped in my head, okay, that's definitely going to be on there. And then it kind of didn't like.
I think I remembered. I don't know if I remembered liking it more than I did or I remembered there were so many others that I liked so much more that I didn't realize. One of my honorable mentions. We'll talk about it when I get there.
[00:09:10] Speaker B: But I feel like I'm gonna be similar to where you are. So we could have more, more, more in common than we think here. Let's see what happens here.
[00:09:16] Speaker C: I'm interested. Well, yeah, I mean, without further ado, you wanna. You want to get into this or what?
[00:09:21] Speaker B: Yes, we should. Do you want to kick it off or do you want me to kick it off? How do you want to start?
[00:09:24] Speaker C: Oh, you kick it off this time. I think last time I kicked it off.
[00:09:37] Speaker B: All right, So I went. Now this is. I gotta tell you right now, we're already gonna start out with a banger here. We're going from 1951, Chuck Jones.
I went drip along Daffy. All right, all right, now, you know, one thing I. One thing I gotta say is that, you know, I've always loved the western setting. I know you had Bugs Bunny rides again high on your thing when we did the Bugs Bunny ones, you know, fav. But there, There. There is just something about.
I love how when they fell into this whole thing with Porky kind of being the sidekick, that's like, you know, he's. He takes a step back from like, you know, he's not as. Because they did a few of these with him where he was like, you know, in. In Daffy's way. Or like they're kind of against each other, but when they're Together like this. It is. It is really, really the best. Especially when Daffy is overconfident and he thinks he's the shit. Everybody, we all love that, you know? In fact, I remember seeing an interview with Chuck Jones where he said, I want to be Bugs Bunny, but I am Daffy Duck. You know, it's like that kind of a thing.
[00:10:35] Speaker C: That's a good quote. Yeah. I could think. I could think of at least four off the top of my head would like that. Where Porky's just the sarcastic sidekick.
[00:10:42] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:10:42] Speaker C: Yeah. Has this shit together while Daffy's just getting his ass kicked. I love it.
[00:10:46] Speaker B: And I remember this cartoon is funny, is that it shows them kind of coming along the town and almost starts out like a Roadrunner cartoon because it says, like, you know, the western hero and then comic relief when it shows them, like, the wor come on the screen there.
[00:10:57] Speaker C: Right.
[00:10:57] Speaker B: But then when they get it, they show the western town. It's almost like this montage of wacky western shit going on.
[00:11:02] Speaker C: A lot of gun fighting, bullets.
[00:11:05] Speaker B: I think when we talk now I've had this cough again. I had it the last time. I thought I was done with it. And if it's coming back as I'm talking a lot, maybe.
[00:11:10] Speaker C: Yeah, maybe.
[00:11:11] Speaker B: I think we talked about in Bugs Bunny Rides Again with the bullets going and stopping because there's a red light, you know?
[00:11:17] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:11:17] Speaker B: And this. They kind of do something similar, but it's. It's the. The guys chasing each other, and they stop and they both wait for the light, and then they go again. It's pretty funny, right?
[00:11:25] Speaker C: Yeah, that's a good one. It's a good gag. It's a good variat. The original gag.
[00:11:29] Speaker B: But they go on this whole montage of that. And then we actually get into the story of the thing when, you know, Daphne shows up to the town. First of all, he walks into the bar like he's the big. He pulls the guns out and his pants come off right away. You're like, this is already. You know, what are we doing here?
[00:11:42] Speaker C: You know? Yeah, yeah.
[00:11:42] Speaker B: But, I mean, we can go on all the gags, but. But, you know, one. I don't know how you feel about this. I know the Three Stooges did this a lot. I remember the Three Amigos did this. And it was one of these jokes that I always loved. And I will never stop not loving it when they get the drink at the bar.
[00:11:59] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:12:00] Speaker B: And they. He takes it, knocks it down. First of all, pork. He makes Porky drink At first, and then he shoves him aside. Then you'll see him. Then he takes the drink and he acts like he's all tough and then all of a sudden, Mary had a little lamb. Everybody ties that. And then they pan over to Porky and he's just as dumb. I, I'm telling you right now, crying when that happens. I love that, you know.
[00:12:20] Speaker A: Bartender, bartender, where's mine?
Mary had a little whim his sleep was light as snow and everywhere that the Mary went the way to go.
[00:12:42] Speaker C: I love the initial boom when he realizes, like his eyes go all crazy. It's a, I mean, it's an obvious cue, but it's a good one. It works. The timing's perfect and I love it. Yeah. And of course you can't talk about that scene without going through the.
The bartender, bartender, where's mine? You know, now he's all confident. Now he's got the.
[00:12:58] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
If the Porky got his and the other guy drank his, he's like, yeah, you're right. Now. Now he's the big. Oh, that was another funny thing too. When he comes into the bars, like, you know, trying, no one pays attention at all. And then eventually he fades around. Anybody for tennis?
[00:13:15] Speaker C: Just goes to the bar and hangs.
[00:13:17] Speaker B: And I love this too, because you get the classic, like, you know, classic western shootout at the end, or at least it sets up to be that. Of course, Brett Porky does the thing and this is a gag they've done in a million Looney Tunes cartoons. But it always makes me laugh too. He has that little wind up toy and the bad guy holds it up thinking it's nothing and blows his brains out, basically.
And, and then has a very. I love the ending because you get daffy. You know, he turns out to be, you know, cleaning up the, you know, as a janitor, basically important sheriff. And he. And the last line is classic. Lucky for him, as it is a one horse town, great laugh, a great end line. You know, it just from the beginning to end. It's just a fun, fun joy watch. And it made me laugh my balls off a lot during it. So what could I say? Well, how about you on this one?
[00:14:03] Speaker C: I love it. I love it. And you know what? Let's just keep talking about it because it's my number five.
[00:14:07] Speaker B: No, really, no, Right out of the gate. Yeah, right out of the gate. Oh, yeah. No, you should have cut me off earlier because I was gonna say I, I, you. I went on too much there. Go ahead. Let's, let's Hear what you got to say.
[00:14:16] Speaker C: No, don't be silly. There's a couple things that. That I think are hilarious that. That. You missed one. Well, first of all, I love the name Nasty.
That's amazing.
[00:14:23] Speaker B: Great name. And so is D. When he goes high. Ho. Tinfoil. Great name.
[00:14:27] Speaker C: Tin Foil. Right.
[00:14:28] Speaker B: Love that.
[00:14:28] Speaker C: For you kids who are under the age of 100, that's. That's a Lone Ranger reference. His horse was named Silver.
Hi H. Tinfoil. It's so stupid. I love it.
[00:14:39] Speaker B: Love it.
[00:14:39] Speaker C: And then first of all, before we go any further, we got. We gotta give props to. Because half the reason why this is hilarious is because of Mel Blanc, right? Like, we got to give him credit. The way he voices Daffy Duck, the way he says some of these lines. Case in point, every time he says Humber, I lose it.
[00:14:56] Speaker B: God, about that.
[00:14:57] Speaker C: Yes, Love that.
Just calls him Humber. 2. Two mispronunciations in one word. I love it. Like, it's perfect. Yeah. No, like, you said it all like. Like it's a nice setup in the beginning where the horses are shooting each other with guns and like everybody, you know, and a little western montage. And then he busts in. Love it. Like you said. Anyone for tennis? Just. It's good.
And then, of course, you know, all of a sudden, here's this guy, this unmovable guy.
You know, just the animation on him is hilarious too, right? His entire, like three quarters of his body are completely immobile. But those little legs. Yes, I just kind of moving, you know?
[00:15:31] Speaker B: I love how they. I love how they start him out, too, in the Wanted poster. When it comes out of it, you know, it's perfect.
[00:15:37] Speaker C: Perfectly posed up against the poster. Yeah. I mean, what can I say?
You know, a buddy of mine, an old, old friend of mine, I remember elementary school on the bus, we were saying, bartender, bartender, where's mine? You know what I mean?
[00:15:50] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
[00:15:51] Speaker C: Just. Just loving that line.
Brian Koontz, this dude used to. Used to hang out. So.
[00:15:57] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:15:58] Speaker C: So it's. It's a classic.
[00:15:59] Speaker B: Another thing that you said, speaking of Mel Blanc with the. With the voice, the confidence. He says the line when he walks into the bar, like, drip along that. Or maybe he says it's a nasty canasta. Now I forget. But he goes drip along. Daffy's the name. Like, as if that's an intimidating. Like, you know, like how that's a. How weak is that name, you know what I mean? But he says it with such confidence. Like he thinks. He thinks he's you know, it's almost
[00:16:20] Speaker C: like the title of the cartoon is making fun of him, but then it turns out that actually is his name, you know? I mean, you think it would just be the title of the cartoon.
[00:16:26] Speaker B: Exactly.
[00:16:28] Speaker C: That's pretty funny. And, yeah, Porky Pig, like you said, just delivering his sarcastic, you know, sarcastic lines the whole way. Just. He, like, he knows in this and all the other ones, he knows he's. He's got a better head for what's going on, but he just kind of. He's happy just being the comic relief.
[00:16:42] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah.
[00:16:44] Speaker C: So there.
[00:16:45] Speaker B: I mean, there you go.
[00:16:45] Speaker C: So right off the bat, we're. We're matched up here. Drip along Dappy, 1951.
[00:16:50] Speaker B: Love it. We're going to go back to.
I guess I'm going to keep it going here. Then we're going to go to 4 here now.
[00:16:55] Speaker C: Keep rolling.
[00:16:56] Speaker B: Well, it's pretty much the same combination here. We're going to go 1958. Now I'm looking at the years. Okay.
[00:17:01] Speaker C: We don't have the same one. That's good.
[00:17:03] Speaker B: Oh, wow. Interesting.
Shoot me.
So I went back to Chuck Jones, and I went back to Porky and Daffy with Robin Hood. Daffy. I had to put this on here.
[00:17:13] Speaker C: Of course you do.
[00:17:15] Speaker B: And that's funny because I remember you had the Robin Hood Bugs Bunny on yours.
[00:17:20] Speaker C: Love that one. Rabbit hood.
[00:17:21] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:17:22] Speaker C: Good one. This one. This one's better, I'll tell you that.
[00:17:24] Speaker B: Well, this one, it's just funny because it starts out right away with the tripping part when he trips down the goddamn hill. I'm like. I'm already like, this is. This is just gonna be great, you know? And what I love, too, is that Porky is just laughing his balls off at him in the beginning. And I love that, you know, he.
[00:17:42] Speaker C: Everything infectious laugh, too.
[00:17:44] Speaker B: It really was great. Speaking of the. The voice characterization, it really made you. You couldn't help but laugh with this, you know? But I think the cartoon really takes off when he's trying to sell the Porky that he's Robin Hood. And he's like, nah, nah, nah, nah. You know, and then. Then he spends the rest of the time trying to prove it and, of course, failing. But it's like, you know. You know, I laugh my ass off watching this all the time, you know?
You know, and again, a lot of this with all the Looney Tunes, too. It's the speed and it's the timing, you know, like when he's on that tree log. Of course, this is parroting the Errol Flynn movie too. I don't know if they. I don't know if they did. I never saw the Kevin Costner. I don't know if they did this whole scene, but. And then the Errol Flynn when he's on that log and that's splitting the river there and he does like a stick battle, you know. So here he's doing it with Porky Pig and just when he. When he. Porky Pig just puts his little stick in there and it sends Daphne spinning and then out.
It's so fast and so hilarious. It's like, how are you not dying?
[00:18:40] Speaker C: Oh, fucking great.
It just casually takes his fucking stick. I love it.
[00:18:45] Speaker B: And then, you know, of course, to me the highlight of the whole thing is the yikes and away.
It's gotta be. It's gotta be.
And, and what I love about this, it's. It's almost. It reminds me of your guy in the Rob in the Rabbit, the Bugs Bunny Robin who won, where the guy, right, builds almost a whole house before he realizes he got fooled.
Daffy goes all the way trees. And then he decides at that moment he's gonna cut them all down so that he can go down. And then he misses the rock and. And then he gets smashed around. I mean the whole, the whole thing is just a beautiful sequence. You're crying.
[00:19:22] Speaker C: Just as he turns around to admire his like tree cutting skills, hits that rock. And then of course, a great angle when like they show the other side of the rock and it cracks just slightly as the guy hops by, you know.
[00:19:35] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:19:36] Speaker C: Perfect timing. Perfect Looney Tunes timing. I love it.
[00:19:40] Speaker A: Yikes and away. Hey, yikes. Hello.
Yikes everywhere.
Yikes. And away like yikes.
Now then yikes and away.
[00:20:20] Speaker B: But they, you know, I'm sure. And then I remember the ending too. Or towards the end there when he, he.
He's trying to follow this guy to the castle. He's trying to shoot the guy, whatever.
He jumps in the water, swims, gets to the door. Like he thinks he's got it. And then the door comes down and crushes him. It's like, like again, it's his confidence and white when he thinks as the peak of I finally got you. He gets completely railed rocked. It's the best.
[00:20:45] Speaker C: And. And what he is like, ha. And then it crushes him and it comes up. He's got the same happy.
[00:20:52] Speaker B: Yeah, you're right. You're right.
[00:20:53] Speaker C: He's so good.
And of course that's a classic.
[00:20:57] Speaker B: And then the ending, of course, you Know, it comes. It almost. He joins Porky and he's, he's Friar Duck at the end. Good line. I liked it. It was good. You know, again, just a, just a real fun cartoon. A lot of, A lot of laugh out loud moments to me. I really enjoyed this one. Yeah, no doubt.
[00:21:12] Speaker C: Good one.
Good one.
[00:21:15] Speaker B: But. Yeah. All right, let's hear you. Number four there, sir.
[00:21:17] Speaker C: Let's roll it. So my number four is 1953.
This is Duck Dodgers in the 24th and a half century.
[00:21:25] Speaker B: I was wondering if this was going to be on your list. Yeah, okay. Okay.
[00:21:28] Speaker C: Yeah. This has always been one of my favorite ones, you know, right from. He's, he's an idiot right off the bat. Like, I love it. Like, you know, he's. He's getting the mission explained to him and he's already, like, he's already making a fool of himself, you know, I love the planet gag. Like, if we just follow these planets, we can get the planet X, you know, planet A, B, C, D. So good gets there. I love, I love Marvin the Martian. I always did. Of course, you know, so that, that's always. It's always good to see him. But I mean, for this, it's like there's so many. The sci fi. It's cool, you know, like, so you have.
[00:22:03] Speaker B: I was going to say it. Definitely. It's one of the best looking ones. No doubt.
[00:22:07] Speaker C: I think so. At least one of the most imaginatively looking ones. Definitely.
Even just the platform. The platform sort of structure in the beginning. I mean, I don't know if they're in open space or what. I don't know what's going on there, but.
[00:22:18] Speaker B: Right.
[00:22:18] Speaker C: But it's just fun to look at now. So. So, so a couple gags that stand out. You know, they're sending the ultimatums back and forth, you know, with the bullets.
He's got the one that just stops right before. And then the bullet opens and shoots him. I don't know what the logic is there, but. Great.
The one where he's trying to get like Marvin on the screen and he gets him on the screen clearly, and it just shoots him through the screen. Freaking great.
The great Mel Blanc, you know, with the disintegrating pistol, you know.
[00:22:52] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:22:53] Speaker C: Lucky for, you know, he doesn't know I'm wearing my disintegration proof vest, you know.
[00:22:57] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:22:58] Speaker C: What do you know? It disintegrated. Yeah. You know. Right. Right down to the.
The. As a kid, I was kind of blown away by the ending. Like, I was like, you Know, I knew it didn't make sense much. Like a lot of Looney Tunes, you know, ones end. But like when the planet pulls up and they're just. They're standing on a small piece of like a planet would just stay there like that, you know, But.
But that's kind of. It was kind of like, oddly scary when I was a kid, but it was really fun.
[00:23:22] Speaker B: It reminds me of.
[00:23:24] Speaker C: Pushes him off.
[00:23:24] Speaker B: I forget what are the. What the title was, but there's one with Bugs with more of the marsh where they're hanging on to, like, the last grasp of the moon there. And he's like, bugs. Money to earn. Bugs Bunny, remember? Yeah, get me out of here.
[00:23:35] Speaker C: Yeah, exactly.
[00:23:36] Speaker B: But the.
Yeah. You know, this. I gotta be honest. This was one that was. Is. Will be an honorable mention for me. I didn't grow up with. Somehow I missed this a lot in my childhood. I didn't see it till I was way later. Yeah. For some reason, it wasn't on. Of course, I do love it. I. You know. Of course. But it was just. If I had seen it more as a kid, it might have been like. Because a lot of these are, like, sentimental to me. I've seen for fuck. You know, way more than I've seen this one. But I. I definitely love it. Yeah. I mean, you know, see, funny.
[00:24:00] Speaker C: This was the ones I thought would be on your list. Interesting.
[00:24:02] Speaker B: Okay. I know. I. If you. To be honest with you, if you ask most Looney Tunes fans, the Daffy Duck fan, this should be on the list. I mean, this is one of the best ones. There's no question about it. I mean, you know.
[00:24:11] Speaker C: Yeah. And it's classic Daffy. Like, there's a formula here. Like, you know, he is overconfident. For some reason, the world thinks he's this great person.
You know, he's not like, you know, he's not Super Duck. He's not Robin Hood. He's not, you know, he's not any of these, like, you know, really great people. But, you know, he has the confidence, like he is.
[00:24:30] Speaker B: Right.
[00:24:31] Speaker C: And he ends up, you know, getting a face full of bullets. I love it. It's just a classic.
[00:24:35] Speaker B: No doubt. And, you know, I remember this gets like a. It's. It's a big cult thing with the sci fi world with this cartoon too. It's got, like a big following and stuff like that, from what I remember.
[00:24:45] Speaker C: Really?
[00:24:46] Speaker B: Stuff like that? Yeah. Like, it's a big deal. And, you know, they did it.
[00:24:49] Speaker C: They did a couple more. At least one More. They did.
[00:24:52] Speaker B: I remember that.
[00:24:52] Speaker C: Duck Dodgers. It's not as good, but it's still worth watching. Still funny.
[00:24:56] Speaker B: Yes, I like that one.
[00:24:57] Speaker C: But this, this was the original and the classic.
[00:24:59] Speaker B: Yeah, definitely.
[00:25:00] Speaker C: Obviously based on Buck Rogers. Again, kids, if you're under 100, you may not know based on Buck Rogers.
[00:25:08] Speaker B: Wow. Very good. I'm glad that one of us had it on there, though, because that. That's.
[00:25:11] Speaker C: Yeah, for sure. Just to talk about a little bit.
All right, number. Number three. We're cruising along here. I love it.
[00:25:17] Speaker B: We are now. You know, now we're really going to get into some here now. You know, I gotta be honest right now. If. If this is not. Because these top three, for me,
[00:25:28] Speaker C: I
[00:25:28] Speaker B: had to be on here, so. So, you know, for me, if this is not on your list, boy, I gotta tell you, I'll be shocked if this is not.
[00:25:35] Speaker C: Okay, all right.
[00:25:37] Speaker B: Well, I'll be more shocked if the next two aren't. I know one of them is, but. Here we go.
Okay, I'm going.
Believe it or not, this is the only frizz freeling I have on here. I love. I mostly love all the frizz freeling stuff there.
We're going 1957. We're going showbiz, Bugs. I had to put this on the list.
[00:25:55] Speaker C: All right, all right.
[00:25:56] Speaker B: Now, you know, I know I'm. I imagine we're going to talk about this later on, but. But, but I. I gotta tell you, I. This is the. This is the classic to me Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck cartoon. It doesn't get any better than this because, you know, you have the overconfident, arrogant and the humble going at it here, you know, I mean, right? And again, a lot of it is the speed when Daffy does some of the stunts here and gets nothing and Bugs just pops his head out and the place goes nuts immediately. That alone made me cry as a kid. I was dying at that. You know, I don't know. We could talk about all the gags in here, but I don't know why.
For me, I'm telling you right now, I was. I remember being on my ass as a kid watching this. When he does the pigeon thing, okay, and he sets up the whole thing, opens up the fucking cage, and they fly right out the window. And, you know, and again, it's the timing of. You watch them fly out the window and you cut back to him and just the sheer disbelief in his fucking. And, and. And heartbrokenness at the same time.
I'm telling you right now. I was crying as a kid and I feel like I almost cry every time. Washington is such a brilliantly timed, orchestrated gag. I love the whole thing.
[00:27:13] Speaker C: So good.
So this has, this has one of the.
Look, spoiler alert. This is not in my five, I gotta tell you.
[00:27:20] Speaker B: Wow. Very interesting.
[00:27:22] Speaker C: A matter of fact, I'll tell you right now, this was the one competing with Trip along for number five.
[00:27:27] Speaker B: Okay. Okay.
[00:27:28] Speaker C: So this was it. So I watched both of these today and I guess I thought triple one was funnier.
[00:27:32] Speaker B: I just thought it's more of a Daffy cartoon. Yeah.
[00:27:35] Speaker C: But this one, this has got one of the best all time gags in Looney Tunes. I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna be bold and say it's top 5 or 10, but this is probably top 15 gags for me. That's me. Including all the coyote gags and all that stuff. But. And I know Juan will agree with this when he sets up the xylophone note.
[00:27:54] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:27:55] Speaker C: To. To go bad. And
[00:27:59] Speaker B: this gag alone, I thought would have put it in there for you. That's why I was shocked it wasn't in there.
[00:28:02] Speaker C: But you know what I mean, this kind of.
Here, I'll tell you. I'll tell you why this kind of.
I thought this was also going to be a guaranteed in there, but it occurred to me like. So I've watched this short cut up in.
I want to say the Bugs Bunny Road Runner movie more than I did the actual short in its, in its complete.
I immediately was like, oh my God, that's a classic. I've seen it a million times and I have.
But I, I remember that from like they cut it up a little bit.
[00:28:32] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:28:33] Speaker C: I didn't see the ending of this until like. Oh, like years later. But anyway, you know, and it gets it wrong, you know, so the speed with which Daffy hits the notes just to. Just to show him.
That's right, you stupid rabbit. You know, I love it. He's just, just insults and Love that everyone's out there.
Just. Oh, the timing of that, the sound of that. I sent it to Juan like probably at least once a year and he just, he cracks up. Hilarious.
[00:29:07] Speaker B: And, and the fact that, you know, almost like the, the Robin Hood one there when they. The drawbridge closes, opens up. He's in the same pose when this thing destructs. He's still standing there and then the last few keys fall off and hit the notes like at the end. It's just hilarious.
[00:29:24] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah. Oh my God, it's so good.
[00:29:25] Speaker A: When he strikes this note. Instead of a xylophone, he'll be playing a harp.
Now, with your kind indulgence, I'll play those endearing Young Charms.
That's wrong, you dumb bunny. Try it again.
Oh, no, no, you stupid rabbit. Like this.
[00:30:07] Speaker B: But the ending to me is one of the most quoted lines. I mean, I feel like anybody that talks Looney Tunes talks about mentions, has this line.
I'm trying to think of where I've heard this.
[00:30:16] Speaker C: You mean the. You mean the girls? You better hold on to your boyfriends?
[00:30:19] Speaker B: Well, no, not that well. But the whole sequence to me is great. But he doesn't.
[00:30:23] Speaker C: Right, right.
[00:30:24] Speaker B: Bugs is.
[00:30:25] Speaker C: The whole.
[00:30:25] Speaker B: Crowds go. It's terrific there for. He goes, yeah, but I can only do it once, you know? Like, that's hilarious, right? What an ending. And what an ending. I. You know, I just thought for the two of them, this was like. Like you said. I know you mentioned Alibaba. Alibaba, Bunny and the Hunting Trilogy. You know, you have Elmer in there. But, like, for me, for Bugs and Daffy, this was number one. I could watch this fucking thing. And I have watched it a million times. I love it. I fucking love it.
[00:30:51] Speaker C: Totally, totally. Like I said, it was my.
I just missed the cutoff. Like.
[00:30:56] Speaker B: Yeah, no, I got you.
[00:30:57] Speaker C: Daffy was just too good. But I get it. I get it.
[00:30:59] Speaker B: But I like that now because I feel like. All right, so we have one. The same we started out, but now we're going a little different here. All right, let's. Let's get the number three here.
[00:31:07] Speaker C: All right, let's see. So my number three, oddly enough, is three of them. So this is the Hunting trilogy. I had to put it in.
[00:31:13] Speaker B: Well, this is my. This is a Newest spoiler alert. This is my number two. So we can get into this a little bit.
[00:31:17] Speaker C: Oh, okay. Okay. Gotcha. Good. Does that make sense?
[00:31:18] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:31:19] Speaker C: So, yeah. I mean, how do you not include this? Like, I know we talked about rabbit seasoning on the Bugs Bunny pod, but, I mean, there's so much going on here. Like, just from Daffy's perspective, like, some of the. Some of the. In my head, when I hear him say certain things, I could just be walking around in my normal life and just crack up laughing just thinking about how he says, you know, now's your chance. Hawkeye showed him, you know? Or the. The best one is probably Duck Fire. Like, he's so excited because he thinks he finally got it. He fig.
You know what I mean?
[00:31:50] Speaker B: You know. You know what's funny? You Say that, too, because I always forget about it.
[00:31:53] Speaker C: Duck Fire. Oh, my God.
[00:31:55] Speaker B: I always forget about the Hawkeye line because what I love about that is it's almost the speed with which he. He's excited about it, but he also. He has enough time to throw a insult in it the last. You know, I mean, like, it's just hilarious, man. Hilarious.
[00:32:09] Speaker C: So we talked about rabbit seasoning a lot. Like in Rabbit Fire, the one we don't talk about as much as Duck. Rabbit. Duck.
[00:32:14] Speaker B: Well, you know. And again.
[00:32:15] Speaker C: God, I'm sorry.
[00:32:16] Speaker B: No, I'm glad you brought this up, because I was going to bring up the fact that to me, this trilogy, it reminds me of, like, Godfather or Back to the Future, where it's like, you know, the first two are kind of there, and the third one is good, but it's not as good as the other two. Am I. Do you feel about that way, or.
[00:32:30] Speaker C: Yeah, you're 100. Right?
But I do. I thought. I do like the. The ongoing gag of I'm a Dirty Skunk.
[00:32:38] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:32:38] Speaker C: You know, no doubt. Like, that gag is. Is great. If not for that gag, this would have been very subpar.
[00:32:44] Speaker B: But. But also, it does have a gag that I know that they've done a lot more. And I don't know if this was the first time they did it or if this came off other cartoons, but when he's walking in, in the.
Away from them, and he says, everybody, I believe it's in this one.
Everybody knows it's really duck season. Whatever. And then 900 shooters jump up from the fucking mountains and shoot them at the same time.
I was again crying when that happened. So, you know, he got.
[00:33:13] Speaker C: He got annihilated so quickly, you know, like, oh, so fast. Right there's. Out of nowhere. Yeah. This is like. This is. This is the one I've seen by far the least.
[00:33:23] Speaker B: Me, too. I'm with you there, definitely.
[00:33:24] Speaker C: Yeah. I've probably seen this six or seven times as compared to, like, 40 times.
[00:33:28] Speaker B: 100. I imagine most Looney Tunes fans are probably in the same train, unless you happen to have that one on a certain video cassette or, you know, it was. Because I feel like they played the other two way more than this one on tv anyways.
[00:33:38] Speaker C: They definitely did. I mean, I didn't know this one existed until I was, like, a teenager, maybe even, like, in my 20s. And I was just like, oh, my God, there's a third one. And I feel like. And I had no idea. They all came out three years in a row. So I Didn't either.
[00:33:49] Speaker B: It took me a while.
[00:33:51] Speaker C: Was 51, rabbit seasoning, 52. And then duck, rabbit, duck, 53. So I always had the impression this came out, like, years later. And they were sort of, you know, revisiting it. And that's why it kind of was a little less than the other two.
[00:34:03] Speaker B: Right.
[00:34:03] Speaker C: But came out a year right after rabbit seasoning. So.
But yeah, I mean, these are classic. I mean, we talked about the. The bill being all over the place.
[00:34:12] Speaker B: I was just gonna bring that up. Like, there's something about that, especially when you're a kid. Like, I.
It's almost like the road.
[00:34:17] Speaker C: Road.
[00:34:17] Speaker B: The coyote, you know, he's gonna get it. You not now. You're just waiting to see.
I couldn't wait to see where this thing was gonna end up next. I I so true. I love this.
[00:34:26] Speaker C: And they kept finding new ways. He's just holding it on the side like, it's so good.
[00:34:33] Speaker B: Another thing I love is. I forget which one this is in. Is it one of the first two? But when with Daphne goes pronoun trouble. It might have been that duck fire.
What I loved about that is that he catches bugs trying to fuck him over. And then he tries to slow it down and break it down. And then we're gonna get it, and he still gets fucking gets shot. It's just the best, you know?
[00:34:51] Speaker C: It's absolutely the best.
[00:34:53] Speaker B: And another thing I love too, is. And again, I forget which one this is in. I think it's rabbit seasoning.
When Shoot, you know, shoot him now. Wait till you get home, you know.
[00:35:02] Speaker C: Now. Shoot him now. Shoot him now.
[00:35:03] Speaker B: When they show you the house, they stay outside the house. And the whole timing of this and the decision to leave you outside the house, to me, is just amazing because you hear the shot and it stays there. And you watch him come all march all the way out of the house, go all the way up the bugs and just go. You're despicable. I mean, it doesn't get any better than that. I mean, you know, I mean, there's not. It doesn't. I don't know how to say it. You know what I mean?
[00:35:27] Speaker C: It's perfect. It's perfect.
This whole trilogy is absolute. It's. It's genius.
[00:35:32] Speaker B: And you. And you get, you know, Bugs and Daffy dressing up like Elmer, of course.
[00:35:36] Speaker C: You get, oh, my God.
[00:35:37] Speaker B: You get, you know, Bugs doing the drag routine.
[00:35:39] Speaker C: You know, Elmer's face when he just. He's mesmerized and he just shoots him without even looking at Him. Oh, my God. It's great. I die and they. And I know you love the part with still lurking.
I know, I know.
[00:35:55] Speaker B: You know what's funny, too?
It's another variation on his duck beak. Because the way his duck beak looks after he gets shot, it's just so unique and so bizarre. And then he just has this dumb. He's so gone right there still lurking about. And you know damn well bugs just set him up there to get them to get shot. It's the best, man. I'm telling you, man, it is just.
Oh, my God, it's so good.
There's something about, you know, when you have that. This kind of a thing with this kind of trilogy, it reminds me of. It's basically all of Looney Tunes in a nutshell. But it's like, when you really have it this well, like, you bring this up a lot, too. It's like.
It's like a marriage of so many things that all work perfectly well at the same time. It's the timing of the gag, the sound effect, the speed, sound effects.
It's just unbelievable how they were able to do this. And. And again, most of it is just explosions and, you know, you kind of know where it's going, you see, but you can't not laugh, like, you know. And I think it's the sound and the impact that is how insane that it is. And.
[00:36:53] Speaker C: And.
[00:36:54] Speaker B: And the aftermath is always, to me, is always the best too, you know. You know, I love it. All right, so now.
[00:36:59] Speaker C: All right, so that was your number two.
[00:37:00] Speaker B: We're moving pretty quick here. That was my number two. Yeah.
[00:37:02] Speaker C: I had to put it.
[00:37:03] Speaker B: I had to put. I had to put that in there just because, you know, just alone, the.
This. The sheer amount of times you. Especially those first two, the amount of times you've seen them, and, you know, they're just a joy the whole time. And. And maybe because there's three of them, but at least because of this. Definitely the first two, because they're so similar. Because the third one is like in. In a ice. Iceland or something. Right. It's like.
[00:37:23] Speaker C: It's like snow. Yeah.
[00:37:25] Speaker B: You kind of mix up the first two, so you almost. You almost don't remember which gags are in this one and which gags are in the other one. So it's almost fresh.
[00:37:31] Speaker C: I was just thinking. Which one was the elephant. I was just thinking that. You know what I mean?
[00:37:34] Speaker B: I was gonna say, I'll give you
[00:37:35] Speaker C: such a pinch, I can't remember which one that was.
[00:37:37] Speaker B: I'm gonna gamble on rapid fire, but I. I'm not 100 on that. Yeah, exactly. That's to my point.
[00:37:41] Speaker C: That'd be my guess as well.
[00:37:42] Speaker B: You don't really remember which ones are in which one, but they're always kind of fresh to you. To me. I don't know. It's. They're. They're just great. Yeah. But we are. We are moving along pretty swimmingly here. So that was my two.
What is your two?
[00:37:53] Speaker C: All right, so my number two. This is. This is a tour de force, quote unquote performance.
[00:38:01] Speaker B: I think I know where you're going.
[00:38:03] Speaker C: You must know where I'm going with this. This is. This is the castaway of Looney Tunes cartoons. This is a duck amok.
[00:38:10] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:38:10] Speaker C: From 1953. I mean, look, this is. By the way, I was shocked that this and or any other Daffy cartoons didn't even get nominated for an Oscar ever.
[00:38:22] Speaker B: I was shocked. This didn't either, actually. Yeah.
[00:38:24] Speaker C: Didn't even get nominated. I couldn't believe it. I know. Like, only five Looney Tune shorts have won an Oscar but get nominated. This was. This must have been so creative at the time. This must have been amazing to watch at the time. The animation is absolutely incredible.
Mel Blanc's voice work is just. He's. He's pretty much talking through the whole, like, straight through the whole thing. It's. It's just perfect. But this is. This is probably the one I've seen. This might be.
Bugs Bunny aside, this might be the cartoon I've seen the most out of.
[00:38:55] Speaker B: No kidding.
[00:38:56] Speaker C: All of Looney Tunes, Really? I think so.
Outside the Bugs Bunny classics, outside of Bully for Bugs and Rides Again and all that, it seems like this one was on every time I put on Looney Tunes. Yeah. And I watched it every single time. It's just. It's so freaking good.
This. The songs are catchy. That he's singing it. Like, tell me you don't have this whole thing memorized. You'd be able to say this thing from start to finish. I think if you were. Fewer problems.
[00:39:19] Speaker B: No doubt.
[00:39:20] Speaker C: Some of the.
Some of the great gags, you know, in the beginning, he's just kind of frustrated, but he's kind of dealing with it. I kind of like that. But then, like, he's just full on, like, you know, yelling at the guy.
[00:39:32] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:39:33] Speaker C: You know, this is a closeup, you know, a close up. You jerk. A. I love the way he calls the animator a jerk.
The screwball is freaking hilarious. You know better than that. You know, the, the, he's flying through the plane and he just erases the plane and he's just got the glass part and he changes the knapsack, the, the parachute to an anvil and then he lands and then he's banging the anvil with a hammer and he changes it to the missile. Oh my God. They're just not treat, I mean, the, the part where like I always. Yes. Yeah, that part is like, the animation is so good there and the voice work is so good there. You feel how frustrating that is? You know what I mean? Like, like you feel like that would be insanely frustrating and you would not be able to keep your together.
[00:40:25] Speaker B: No doubt.
[00:40:25] Speaker C: And he doesn't.
[00:40:26] Speaker B: No doubt.
[00:40:27] Speaker C: I mean there's, I can go on and off, but there's so many, so many great, great gags in this thing. What do you think?
[00:40:33] Speaker B: Well, no, I, it's funny. I was gonna say this, this, I gotta be honest with you. I think people listening to this will drive off the road or they want to drive up here and murder me for, for not this and, and, and be on every list. And I, I did not have them on there again. Duck Dodgers. I, I didn't see a lot growing up. This one I did. But for some reason when I was a kid, it was, there was an existential thing to it that I was not, I loved the cartoon, don't get me wrong. But I, I, it was not one that I was like, it didn't have the, I, I found it to be a little bit more frustrating for me than it, than it was. I, I, I would rather have a real story with a real thing. You know what I'm saying?
[00:41:12] Speaker C: See for me, if that makes any sense, he was like, I can't wait to see where else they go with this. Like, it kept going and going. It didn't feel like, it felt longer than most shorts because I agree with you. Take Trip Along Daffy, for example, or like, or even the, the Hunting trilogy. There's always a preamble. There's always a, you know, the western gags or, you know, I'm hunting wabbits, you know, it's always a slow build up to when the action starts. This kicks right in and goes hardcore for like six, seven minutes.
[00:41:40] Speaker B: No doubt. It is definitely the most unique thing ever. There's no question about it.
[00:41:44] Speaker C: You know, it's, it's, and I was just like, oh my God. And then I was like, no, it's not over yet. You know, like the end comes up as a Kid. I was like, oh, that's like, oh, you know, there's so much more to it. I love it. It just kept going and going and going. And then the ending. Now there's a pattern with yours like that.
[00:41:59] Speaker B: I gotta be honest, I'm glad you brought this up. Go ahead, go ahead.
[00:42:03] Speaker C: Because you've had all good endings, good ending lines, all that. I mean, this is one of the best endings of any of the best
[00:42:09] Speaker B: ending of any Looney Tunes cartoon.
Absolutely brilliant idea to have. Who else would be there but Bugs? And who else? And you know what I was thinking too was, it's funny, when we did the Bugs list, you know, you asked most people, Bugs Bunny, what's the. What do you think of what's up, doc? You know, he had so many lines and you know that. That he said, and this is another one right here, you know, AI a stinker.
[00:42:30] Speaker C: It was not a stinker.
[00:42:31] Speaker B: You know, I mean, of course you realize this means war, you know, you don't know me very well, do he? You know, made a wrong turn at Albuquerque.
He has a million of. Yeah, but the. The fact that when you saw it was him, I was like, that really is like a kiss. Like, what. What a genius idea. And you're right. How did this nominate and how did they not win? I really, really.
[00:42:53] Speaker C: I had no fucking idea. That's insane. It's insane.
[00:42:55] Speaker B: Now, another thing I was asked you was, did they. I have a vague memory. Again, I didn't again. I saw this as a kid, but for some reason I didn't gravitate towards it as a kid. If I would. If it's funny, I feel like for some reason if I saw it later on first, I don't know why, it was like, it just wasn't one of my favorite ones. But I mean, it is. I love it. I don't think. I don't love it. I do love it.
[00:43:13] Speaker C: But.
[00:43:13] Speaker B: But yeah. Do you remember a Bugs version of this? Did they do a Bugs one later on where he was getting messed up by the animator and I don't remember how.
I don't think it was daffy in the end, but I don't remember. I have a vague memory and I definitely didn't see it a lot. I have to. We have to Google this and find this out.
[00:43:29] Speaker C: But yeah, for sure.
[00:43:30] Speaker B: There was a cartoon after this. But, you know, another thing I was gonna say was, I don't know if this movie was on your list when we did our 50 movie list, but there's a Buster Keaton movie called Sherlock Jr.
Oh, yeah. And in the movie, I like that. He.
He wants to be a detective, but he works as a projectionist in a movie theater. And he's sitting in the back of the theater and he falls asleep and he dreams.
And he watch him the dream. And you watch him walk into the movie screen and in. Then. Then they show you the movie screen. You show you him.
And he's in the middle of one thing and then the scene changes. And then now he's in like, he. He's on a diving board. He goes to dive and then he dives off the board. The scene changes. Now he dives into sand. He's like. He's on a beach and he gets off of there. Next thing you know, he's in a. On a mountain. And this sequence of this film reminded me of this cartoon. It was almost like the.
The projections was messing with him and the way that Bugs was messing with Daffy, you know. And I was always wondering if this inspired this cartoon because it is such a unique idea for an animation. You would think, well, the funny thing is knowing that animation was really limitless, it's surprising they didn't do this thing like years earlier. You know what I'm saying? Like, well, I mean.
[00:44:44] Speaker C: Or maybe they did. We don't realize. Maybe, like, maybe like Mickey Mouse. Did we one like this? Like, who the hell knows?
[00:44:48] Speaker B: Good point.
[00:44:49] Speaker C: But first one I remember seeing, and I was blown away by it as a kid, I thought it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen.
[00:44:54] Speaker B: And I was gonna say, like I
[00:44:54] Speaker C: said, I did not want it to end.
[00:44:55] Speaker B: I. I agree with you. There they are. That. That was the same thing I was to say about.
You could say that about. I feel like a few different cartoons, you know, I don't want it like showbiz Bugs. I was like, they could have just kept doing more and more magic acts and I could have watched him get up for an hour, you know. But one cool thing, many years ago, I. I went to. In Bryant park in the city.
Sure, they show movies during the summertime, you know.
And of course, they had the Magnificent Seven they were gonna show. So I was like, I gotta go see this. You know, So I went to go see it. And before they showed the movie, they showed a Looney Tunes cartoon. And this is the one they showed.
[00:45:37] Speaker C: Oh, perfect.
[00:45:37] Speaker B: And it was almost like, again, it reminded me of when we went to go see me and Alice with Go see the City Lights movie at Lincoln Center. You would think this thing was made Yesterday, the whole crowd, they're roaring through every gag. It was. It's just.
[00:45:50] Speaker C: Is that right?
[00:45:51] Speaker B: It's just awesome to be in that setting and watch the damn thing. It's, you know, really. But. But really a great. Great again. Honorable this is on honorable mention for me. I know we're gonna get to those next year, but of course, how could it not be? I mean, you know, under spreading sets
[00:46:09] Speaker A: in the tree, the vlogs in the.
[00:46:10] Speaker B: These plans. Isn't this mighty? The man is famous. Strong and
[00:46:17] Speaker C: so.
[00:46:17] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:46:18] Speaker C: Speaking of. So let's. Let's. Let's get some honorable mentions out. What do you got?
[00:46:22] Speaker B: Well, I'm curious to see if any of you have any of these same ones here. Obviously we mentioned, for me at least Duck Dodgers and. And duck them up. But there's one.
I don't know. I saw this later on. I did not grow up with this one, but, you know, I know it was on to be. Or HBO or. I've watched this within the last five years. I saw for the first time. There's one with Daffy and El.
There's one with Daffy and Elmer called Quack Shot. Do you know this at all?
[00:46:49] Speaker C: Okay. No, I don't.
[00:46:51] Speaker B: It's the cartoon. Overall, it's fine. But there's one or two gags in this thing that I'm telling you right now.
Absolutely. Crying on my eyes out. You know.
[00:47:01] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:47:04] Speaker B: One of them is kind of intricate to really describe, but. But one of them, I'll tell you right now, Elmer ties Daffy up onto a. He's on a dock and he ties him up on a boat with all. All dynamite, tnt, the whole thing. It's all tight. He ties him up on the boat, puts the motor on and sends him out. And you're. You're looking at a wide shot from the dock and you see Elmer at the front of it, and you see the boat sail off. And then you see it through an immediate U turn, head right back towards the dock, and it blows him up. It was like, again, the timing of the whole thing was just like. I'm like, this is just beautiful shit here, you know?
[00:47:35] Speaker C: That sounds good. Sounds hilarious.
[00:47:37] Speaker B: And a couple of these, I gotta mention, one was, well, well, these are kind of earlier ones. Another famous one that I feel like a lot of people would probably put on the list is the Great Piggy Bank Robbery. Sure.
[00:47:48] Speaker C: Yep. Right.
[00:47:49] Speaker B: Yep. No, another one that's kind of like. To me, it kind of falls into the Duck Amok and even Duck Dodgers of being very Unique. Especially the animation was very cool, you know, with all the gangsters and all that, you know, Very cool.
Two others I'm going to mention is the deduce you say.
[00:48:07] Speaker C: Yep, that's one of my honorable mentions too.
[00:48:09] Speaker B: It's like the Sherlock Holmes.
[00:48:10] Speaker C: That was the one. That was the one that I thought was definitely going to be in there.
The Shropshire Slasher, but it just. It didn't. Didn't make it. Yeah, yeah, but I love that one. That's a great one.
[00:48:20] Speaker B: And there's another earlier one with, with him called Daffy Doodles where you know what, for some reason, when I was a kid, this was on all the time where he paints mustaches on people. Do you remember this or not?
[00:48:32] Speaker C: Yes, I do remember.
[00:48:33] Speaker B: I love this one. As a kid, it was just a lot of fun to watch. I just wanted to see him fuck with everyone. It was. I mean, it really was a ridiculous cartoon. But. But he's ridiculous. So what are we doing there? You know?
[00:48:40] Speaker C: Right.
[00:48:41] Speaker B: And actually I did have one more. Was the Scarlet Pumpernickel. You ever see that one?
[00:48:44] Speaker C: Yep, that was one of my automations too.
[00:48:46] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:48:46] Speaker C: Oh yeah, I love that one.
[00:48:47] Speaker B: Yeah, that's what I got. But go ahead. What do you got? You know, I like the Scarlet Pumping.
[00:48:50] Speaker C: It goes. That's kind of like an all star. It's like there's so many in there.
[00:48:53] Speaker B: More of those? Yeah, definitely.
[00:48:54] Speaker C: Yeah, totally. Like a little Sylvester was in it, Elmer was in there, Porky Pig was in there. Like everybody was in that one. Definitely was kind of cool. That was a good one.
[00:49:01] Speaker B: Yeah, definitely.
[00:49:02] Speaker C: So a couple.
So you named them all. So there's one that I, I really like that I saw later and I didn't see until I got the clothing collection. Right. But it's called the Ducks. The Ducksters.
[00:49:13] Speaker B: Oh, like that.
[00:49:14] Speaker C: Yes, I love that one.
So that's the one with, you know, Porky Pig is a contestant on the game show and Daffy's asking him all these questions and when he gets it wrong, he just gets fucking annihilated. Like they dropped the Rock of Gibraltar onto him and he's on. He's on the conveyor belt with the saw, you know.
That's a good one.
It's just a. It's one of the rare ones where Daffy is the protagonist and you know, Porky Pig is the. I should say Daffy's the antagonist. Importantly, Pig is the one who's getting screwed up.
[00:49:44] Speaker B: Right.
[00:49:45] Speaker C: You know, so that's kind of cool. So look, I'm gonna tell you my last honor because I mentioned Alibaba. Bunny deduce you say Scarlet Pumpernickel. So I'm going to mention this one and I.
This is probably your number one.
[00:49:57] Speaker B: Wait a second, wait a second.
Don't break my heart here. You're going to tell me right now. This is not your number one. If what comes out of your mouth comes out of your mouth. I am. I got to tell you right now. I am going to be so curious as to what your number one is. I can't wait.
[00:50:10] Speaker C: We've already mentioned my number one.
[00:50:12] Speaker B: What's that?
[00:50:13] Speaker C: We've already mentioned my number one dot you're just forgetting that I haven't mentioned it yet.
[00:50:16] Speaker B: Oh, shit.
Yes, you're right.
[00:50:20] Speaker C: This would have been right after Showbiz Bugs. So this was my second honorable mention.
And it's Stupid duck.
[00:50:27] Speaker B: Oh.
[00:50:28] Speaker C: Oh, I'm sorry.
[00:50:29] Speaker B: Breaking my heart.
[00:50:31] Speaker C: Believe me. Believe me, it's so good. Like, it's. I mean, these are all so good.
[00:50:37] Speaker B: Of course. What are we doing here, Mother?
[00:50:38] Speaker C: Like, we, you and I. You've probably said that more than any other daffy quote in your life.
[00:50:43] Speaker B: I agree. I probably have.
[00:50:44] Speaker C: We say mother all the time. And as a kid, I love the whole. I loved everything about it. Vark Ratnick. What a cool name for a villain.
Like, it's so good.
[00:50:55] Speaker B: No doubt.
[00:50:58] Speaker C: There's just. There's only. There's only five spots and.
[00:51:01] Speaker B: No, hey, listen.
[00:51:02] Speaker C: No, no. Of course.
[00:51:02] Speaker B: You know what is. I guess. And you might be right about this. I. It might be just because of that mother line alone. And maybe it is mostly me, but I remember you saying it a lot, too. But for some reason, I always thought we were on the same. I mean, we are. It's not like you don't love the cartoon. I know you do, but my point is. Yeah, I thought for sure, you know. So if we're gonna get into it now. I didn't realize. For some reason I didn't find. I don't know why I've always.
In looking at these lists, when you're a kid, you don't really notice the directors and shit, you know?
[00:51:28] Speaker C: Right.
[00:51:29] Speaker B: But as an adult, I found that I kind of lean towards Frizz Freeling and Chuck Jones. Everybody loves Chuck Jones. What are you doing?
[00:51:34] Speaker C: Me too.
[00:51:35] Speaker B: Yeah, but Robert McKimson is the one
[00:51:36] Speaker C: that did Robert Kimson. Oh, really? Okay. I didn't know that. I didn't look at the directors for this. Yeah, you're right. He would have been the third.
The third Director.
[00:51:43] Speaker B: Yeah, I think so. And I like for sure some of the other ones, like the Great Piggy Bank Robbery was Bob Clampett. He has a very unique style, too. I think I remember him too.
[00:51:52] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah, right.
[00:51:53] Speaker B: But the thing with Super Duck for me is that, you know, what it is too, is. I think I might have told you this too.
We talked a few times about the Looney Tunes films that they've made, the compilation movies. And. Oh, yeah, the one I grew up with was Daffy Ducks Fantastic Island. I've seen that more than I've seen any of the other ones. And this car, that's where.
[00:52:10] Speaker C: Saw this for the first time as well.
[00:52:11] Speaker B: And this was on there, you know?
[00:52:12] Speaker C: Yep.
[00:52:12] Speaker B: And the other thing I was going to say what makes this, to me unique is in. In the same way, almost like Duck Amuck is. Is that he's on his own because he's almost always with someone. He's. Like I said, it's either Porky or Bugs or whatever. You know, this is just dairy Duck. You know what I'm saying? And again, it's more of a. A plot and a storyline rather than the existential thing with Duck A Muck. Maybe that's why I gravitated towards it, you know, But. Yeah, but it's just, you know, to me, it's the ultimate Daffy thing because he's Superman, but he's Daffy Duck, you know, and you just know it's gonna be fucking great, you know? And you know, immediately when they do the whole. Faster than a speeding bullet, all that shit, and when he jumps over the building, gets his cape caught, and he does that stupid laugh, I'm like. I'm like, I'm set. And I want this cartoon to be two hours long. I'm telling you, I was crying, right? And one. One thing I noticed too, and rewatched this. I haven't seen this thing. And I don't know how long, because I saw it so many times. The kid was like, I had to rewatch this for this thing, you know. One brilliant thing I gotta tell you is when he's.
When he's going to get the drink of water and he hears the aardvark Ratnick in the other room, which course is on the television set, right? He's pouring the water and he knows he's going over the glass.
[00:53:24] Speaker C: He put.
[00:53:24] Speaker B: I don't know if, you know, he puts his foot down on in the spot, thinking that's gonna block the water for some reason.
[00:53:30] Speaker C: Oh, really? I noticed that.
[00:53:31] Speaker B: And next Thing. You know, first of all, this jug of water managed to fill up the whole room. I don't know how that's even possible.
[00:53:36] Speaker C: You know, of course. And none gets under the door. Door jamb.
But I tell you what, there's so many inconsistencies with this one, which is. It's a little tooth cartoon. So why would you fucking.
[00:53:46] Speaker B: No doubt.
[00:53:46] Speaker C: Like he's stupid duck, right?
[00:53:48] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:53:49] Speaker C: But like, he's running from the missile across the water right before mother. Like, just fly, fly away. Right? Like, why the fuck would he do that?
There's another one where a guy punches him in the face and he gets screwed up. He's Superman.
[00:54:01] Speaker B: I know, but.
[00:54:01] Speaker C: But.
[00:54:02] Speaker B: But that's what made me think about this cartoon. I guess he's. But. But they kind of make it like he thinks he is. But maybe he's. I mean, he can fly. You're right. He can fly.
[00:54:09] Speaker C: Fly.
[00:54:10] Speaker B: But it's like that was another thing too. When he opens up the window, and of course it closes. He crashes through the window. Then you hear him smack right into the building, and he's bitching about all the places to put a building. Like, you know, it's.
[00:54:22] Speaker C: Right. Exactly. Exactly.
[00:54:23] Speaker B: And. And it's just.
[00:54:25] Speaker C: Just his.
[00:54:26] Speaker B: His voice in this is. Is the best. Like, at one point, he's flying through the air and he's talking to himself, and he gets himself, like, ramped up, you know, he's like, you know, I forget, what the hell? What is it? I'm gonna mess up. What he. What specifically he was. He says. But he's like, you know, not today. I don't know. Like, I don't know. I don't know what it was specifically, but he's, like, talking to himself, you know. Ah, fuck. I wish I could remember what it was. But he's like, you know, oh, you think you're gonna get the best of me? You know, he just. He just. Talking to himself. He gets all riled up. But the. Of course, the mother gag we talked about with the submarine and everything. But. But he's one, like, the construction guy. Punching him in the face is hilarious. And then the. The movie set, when he takes the
[00:55:02] Speaker C: movie set all the way up in there.
[00:55:04] Speaker B: And of course, the only thing he wants to get back is the S on his. On his chest.
[00:55:09] Speaker C: Doesn't take the feathers back.
[00:55:11] Speaker B: Yeah. To me, the whole thing was just such a blast to watch. I mean, I love the whole thing, you know?
And, you know, for me, I think. I think I've just seen it so Many times as a kid, I. I had to put this on there. It was like, you know. And again, I wish. I wish. I wish this thing was 10 hours long, man.
[00:55:36] Speaker C: I know. It's so good.
That's what's so great about those movies about the Daffy. It's. It's like you're watching Looney Tunes for the first time. You don't got to worry about going to the next one. It's just. It plays for an hour and a half. It's like a ma. It's like. It's, like, amazing. It's like they always left you wanting more.
[00:55:51] Speaker B: Definitely.
[00:55:51] Speaker C: And now with these few movies, they came out with you just. You have everything you need. I love it.
[00:55:55] Speaker B: And you know what's funny, too, is I feel like. Especially something like the Fantastic island, because it seems like some of the ones they showed on there, they weren't. They didn't get played a lot, I guess, because I. You know.
[00:56:05] Speaker C: You know the one with the cast one that we talked about so many times, I've only seen that actual short, like, maybe twice.
[00:56:14] Speaker B: Oh.
[00:56:14] Speaker C: You know, I mean, everything else was from Fantastic Island.
[00:56:16] Speaker B: Yeah. Greedy for Tweety. That's cool. I remember that. I remember I had to look that up because I was saying the I. That was a. I love. We love. That one is growing.
And a mouse divided is on there.
[00:56:27] Speaker C: Oh, perfect. Yep, yep, yep.
[00:56:29] Speaker B: There's a great.
[00:56:29] Speaker C: I told you I just bought it, right? Yeah, I just got it.
[00:56:33] Speaker B: Yes, yes, yes.
[00:56:33] Speaker C: Yeah, I watched it a couple weeks ago. It was fucking amazing.
[00:56:36] Speaker B: Even the Pepper Le Pew one on there was great. Does the Louver come back to me when he's at the Louvre?
[00:56:41] Speaker C: Oh, yeah.
[00:56:42] Speaker B: The paintings are getting messed up with the smell. I love, really. I love that movie. It really was great.
[00:56:48] Speaker C: It's good.
[00:56:49] Speaker B: But now let's. Let's get to it now. Well, I got to hear you, number one here. Now, I used to be mentioned. I actually thought it was show business. Buzzer we mentioned that one. So what the hell? What could this be here?
[00:56:58] Speaker C: Well, it's. It's. It's Robin Hood Daffy, but I didn't have it on mine.
[00:57:02] Speaker B: I didn't realize. Okay. Okay, awesome. Oh, I'm glad you had this on there, then. Okay, so we did. We did.
We had at least, what, three?
[00:57:10] Speaker C: We had Robin Hood Daffy, we had the Hunting Trilogy, and we had.
So there was three. Okay. Yeah. Awesome.
Yeah. And that. That sits exactly where we said, too, because even if you count, the Hunting Trilogy is like a half. We Were still saying like two and three, so that's perfect. We knew we'd have it. No, look, I mean, we said a lot about Robin Hadaffy before the. Oh, so come on with me. Join us in free. Like. Like. I sang this over and over when I was a kid. The. The. Oh, Perry Dodge spin thrust. You know, like, everything about that's amazing.
[00:57:38] Speaker B: No doubt.
[00:57:39] Speaker C: We talked about the.
Some of the gags. Some of the gags that we missed were when he's got the crossbow and he fires it at the guy and it bridges the gap just perfectly so he can hop across it.
[00:57:50] Speaker B: But by the way, you know. You know, it's funny, I forgot about that gag. You know, what I say was, I wanted a reaction shot from Daffy of like, how the fuck did that happen? You know what I mean? He was already on to the next thing, but I wanted him to be like, shit, what the fuck?
[00:58:04] Speaker C: The one where he shoots himself accidentally and he goes through the rock, that was. Just had the angle of his face on the other side.
[00:58:10] Speaker B: Camera angle there. I forgot about that. That brilliant.
[00:58:12] Speaker C: Yeah, great camera angle. And then I just tops by every time how they're catching up and getting way ahead of this guy every time to set this up because the guy's going like, you know, at a reasonably good place.
[00:58:24] Speaker B: Right, right. Yeah, right.
[00:58:27] Speaker C: But, yeah, no, the. The. Yikes. Send away. Of course, that's classic.
The sound effect of him hitting those trees is. Is absolutely amazing.
[00:58:37] Speaker B: I know.
[00:58:37] Speaker C: Perfect. Perfect. Oh, you know, it cannot be better than that.
[00:58:40] Speaker B: I mean, you know, we forgot to mention about that sequence, which is even. Even better, is that you see the first three, then they cut the porky, and you're watching pork. You watch him do the rest.
Hilarious.
[00:58:51] Speaker C: That was really great.
Yeah. Like we mentioned Porky's laugh. It's so perfect. And then when he starts laughing, I forgot about that. And then he picks him up in his arms. It's so hilarious.
[00:59:03] Speaker B: I love that. It gets me every time they're both just laughing like. I love it.
[00:59:07] Speaker C: How jolly can you. It. You know, it's so good.
This one was like. Something about this one.
The pace of it, the look of it, you know, it's pretty much centered around that tree gag, which, you know, I. I couldn't wait to see. Every single time.
[00:59:26] Speaker B: It was just so good. No doubt.
[00:59:27] Speaker C: Especially the look back when he soundly just, you know. You know, something that Coyote did a million times. But it was fun seeing Daffy do it, you know, like I said the songs, like I sang the Songs when I was a kid. Like, it was just, it was so good. And when he would just, you know.
Again, the beak. Right. Yeah, the beak would flip up.
[00:59:45] Speaker B: Yeah.
And it does at the end.
[00:59:47] Speaker C: Even when he mimed it, when he was just like. Right. And at the end.
[00:59:49] Speaker B: Yeah, right. Yeah.
[00:59:51] Speaker C: So good. I mean, it's just, it's everything I could want out of a, out of a six minute short. Like, it really is. It's just, it's perfect.
[01:00:00] Speaker B: You're right.
[01:00:00] Speaker C: Yeah. So I, I thought, I thought I, I was pretty sure Robin Hood would be on there. I was pretty sure the Hunting Trilogy would be on there. I thought Duck Amok would be the other one that we had. Then we talked about why it's not on there, blah, blah, blah. Yeah, I'm glad that Trip along was on there.
[01:00:15] Speaker B: I thought.
[01:00:16] Speaker C: And I guess when I said maybe four, I thought maybe Duck Dodgers as well.
[01:00:20] Speaker B: Yeah, See, I, I thought my two. I knew the Hunting trilogy. We knew that was going to be there, but I think so.
[01:00:26] Speaker C: We talked about it so much.
[01:00:27] Speaker B: I thought Stupid Duck and Showbiz Box were going to be there for you. I was, I was shocked.
[01:00:31] Speaker C: They're both right there.
[01:00:32] Speaker B: I mean, you.
[01:00:33] Speaker C: You know me. Because they were both right. They were 6 and 7. I mean, 6 and 7 for sure.
[01:00:36] Speaker B: Oh, you know what? I was.
[01:00:37] Speaker C: For sure.
[01:00:38] Speaker B: I just rocking my, rocking my brain here. But that was what I was thinking of. When he's flying again, he spends the cartoon flying around talking to himself. You know, I love that. But anything, I'm gonna ram that thing right down your throat.
And that's another thing about the true. But the thing I love about that cartoon is that there is no villain. You know, he's just, he's imagining this because he's heard from the television show, you know, like, what are you doing here? You know, he's just, I don't know. My rats flying along, finding, you know, like, I just, you know, it's just so dumb. I mean, you know, but, but, but so dumb. But those two, I thought. Oh, the ship.
[01:01:11] Speaker C: We didn't talk about the ship gag either. When he sees the submarine submerging and he brings it up.
[01:01:15] Speaker B: Yes.
[01:01:16] Speaker C: Before the mother. That's the, that's the, you know, that's the. Cause it's so good.
[01:01:20] Speaker B: You're right. You're right. It brings him up and just blows him away. Right. Immediately. Well, it shoots him right away and
[01:01:24] Speaker C: he's just, you know, shoots at him, you know. Oh, God. So that.
[01:01:29] Speaker B: It's funny that I was Gonna say that they brought that back. Because talking about his character and the way it kind of evolved with these later ones, the Duck Dodgers, the Duckle Muck, the showbiz bugs, all these later ones, you don't get that. Like, this one bought that.
This brought that back.
[01:01:50] Speaker C: That.
[01:01:52] Speaker B: You know what I'm saying? Like.
[01:01:52] Speaker C: Yeah. And oddly enough, see, I thought just by the look of it, I would have said this was from like the late 40s.
[01:01:57] Speaker B: I thought it was. I thought it was actually later. I thought it was earlier than the other ones. I. I gotta be honest. Yeah. It says 1956. I definitely would thought late 40s too. I thought the same thing.
[01:02:05] Speaker C: Yeah. The way that Daffy's drawn. First of all, yes, it looks late 40s. And, you know, as opposed to even
[01:02:11] Speaker B: the whole kind of lighter tint to it than. It's not as rich as, like Robin Hood daffy, you know, 100.
[01:02:18] Speaker C: It's a little grainier. It's a little. So that's why I kind of thought, you know, the animation was a little more sophisticated. But I guess, you know, but it wasn't.
[01:02:24] Speaker B: But like I said, like, you know, when you.
I don't know, again, we grew up as you did. We were Looney Tunes.
Looney Tunes House. I mean, we loved a lot of the old cartoons, don't get me wrong. Popeye and Pink Panther and all that shit. Woody Woodpecker, Tom and Jerry.
[01:02:39] Speaker C: Tom and Jerry, Woody Woodpecker.
[01:02:41] Speaker B: We didn't.
We weren't a Disney house because we. You had a. I don't remember this. You had to pay for the Disney Channel. Well, at least I remember. You remember. And. But whenever you got two weeks of it, they would. Every now and then, you get it for free. We were like, oh, you know, we check it out. You know, And I don't remember them.
The humor was not like Looney Tunes. I mean, obviously, I don't think anything really is, but.
[01:03:01] Speaker C: But the one course were the only ones.
[01:03:04] Speaker B: That's what I was gonna bring up because I think we've talked about this before.
[01:03:06] Speaker C: Oh, my bad.
[01:03:08] Speaker B: You jumped in. Because obviously, specifically the skiing one with Goofy. I remember. I've seen that as a kid.
I love that cartoon.
[01:03:16] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:03:16] Speaker B: But I. I loved his. You don't even have to see him fall off the mountain. You just have to hear him go.
[01:03:22] Speaker C: That.
[01:03:22] Speaker B: That sound.
Love that as a kid.
[01:03:26] Speaker C: So good.
[01:03:27] Speaker B: And there was something to the Daffy character that I miss with that. Like, you know, because again, when you think to me, when you hear the word Looney Tunes. It sounds like it's insanity. And Duck in the Old Car started
[01:03:39] Speaker C: out like that, for sure. The old classic.
[01:03:42] Speaker B: Him, he was insanity. Like, you know, I. I loved some of those bouncing off the walls.
[01:03:46] Speaker C: Love.
[01:03:46] Speaker B: I love that whole thing. So I was kind of glad that I. I missed that. I mean, don't get me wrong. Yes, it's a lot. And I. After a while, let's get something a little different here. That's why I am glad eventually, that he did move on. But I. I did miss that a little bit. I love.
[01:03:58] Speaker C: When he was a. Yeah, we didn't talk about the. The stupor salesman. That was a good one, too, when he busted on the house, right. And he's trying to sell. Like, Is that kind of. Remember Elmer? No, I think so. Elmer's like the homeowner. He's trying to sell him, like.
[01:04:12] Speaker B: Yes.
[01:04:13] Speaker C: You know, either The. The. Not the House of tomorrow.
[01:04:16] Speaker B: Yeah. The technology. Yes, I remember. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[01:04:21] Speaker C: So listen, I want to thank, you know, Luke Boyle for producing this thing. He's gonna get this out there and publish it for us.
Thank you to everyone out there listening. Hopefully you're Looney Tunes fans. Hopefully you laughed a little along with us. Hopefully you're remembering some of these great shorts. And listen, if you listen to this and you're not like a Looney Tunes guy, please go.
Go watch these classics, man. They're absolutely. They never, never, never stop being funny. They're so good. Love them so much.
[01:04:46] Speaker B: I know John's gonna probably hit us up with about four different ones we didn't mention here, but.
[01:04:50] Speaker C: Oh, for sure. Yeah.
[01:04:51] Speaker B: He's old school, but, yeah, he was
[01:04:53] Speaker C: the first guy I met with a Looney Tunes tattoo, so he's Die Hard.
[01:04:58] Speaker B: Yeah. No, this is a blast. Listen, anytime we. Me and you could talk about Looney Tunes, like you said, it's funny you mentioned John with the tattoo, because I always remember Burger King. I. I always say this. I. When I met you for the first time in life, you either had a I, Star wars or a Bugs Bunny tie on. And you. You keep saying it was Bugs Bunny because once it was Bugs. Once that was in. Once I saw that, I'm like, I got to be friends with this guy right here.
[01:05:17] Speaker C: That's awesome. That's a great. If we were a couple, that'd be a great how we met story.
[01:05:21] Speaker B: It's a meat. A meet cute. I just found out whatever the hell they call that.
[01:05:25] Speaker C: Yeah, right. A meet cute. Yeah. That's hilarious.
[01:05:27] Speaker B: So there you go. What are we gonna do here?
[01:05:29] Speaker C: All right, that's it.
[01:05:30] Speaker B: That's all we got. Thanks for listening. And you know, that's the end.
