Develiker terrible... so disappointed.

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

TheComicsGuru For those that have ever wondered how the "Duck season! Rabbit season" argument became part of pop culture, it all began here.Chuck Jones and Michael Maltese decided to change Daffy Duck's personality a bit. In this cartoon Daffy became less goofy and more malicious. Especially when in came to his best "frenemy" Bugs Bunny. And history was made.While it was never clearly established why Daffy wishes bodily harm on Bugs, we can assume that jealousy played a part in this. Regardless of why, this change works. For some reason, you immediately accept Daffy's new role as an antagonist for Bugs.This makes it easier to laugh until you cry as Daffy is tricked time and time again into saying "duck season", taking a shotgun blast to the face, and waiting to see what new position his bill will be in when the smoke clears.The other two cartoons in this series use the blueprint established here for great effect. I have to give this the full 10 stars as it set the tone for the next two installments.

tavm Of the three shorts directed by Chuck Jones and written by Michael Maltese that starred Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Elmer Fudd in the "Hunting Trilogy" series, this, Rabbit Fire was the first. When I originally saw this as a nearly 10-year-old kid in the late '70s, I laughed out loud at the way Bugs kept tricking Daffy into saying, "Duck season, fire!" with the result of Elmer shooting the duck's face and Daffy's beak either falling off, or spinning, or his head hanging upside down. Other funny stuff involves the wabbit and duck impersonating each other in costume, their reading recipes of what each other would taste like followed by "mmmm-mmm" sounds, Bugs fooling Elmer with his female disguise (again!), an "elephant gun" gag, and the final twist that I won't reveal here. After all these years, this is one of my favorites among many classic Warner Bros. cartoons.

dolite91 Daffy Duck: Rabbit Season!Bugs Bunny: Duck Season.Daffy Duck: RABBIT season!!!Bugs Bunny: (reversing the flow) Rabbit Season.Daffy Duck: DUCK SEASON!! FIRE!!Elmer Fudd: (opened fire) Boom!!!The quotes above were from the classical shorts 'Rabbit Fire'(1951), which was directed by Chuck Jones (1912-2002).This short was the first installment for the ''Hunter Trilogy''. The other two being 'Rabbit Seasoning' and 'Duck! Rabbit! Duck!'.To me, this short was the best out of the two sequels of the ''Hunter Trilogy''. It was a funny short. Other than that, it pitted Daffy Duck and Bugs Bunny against Elmer Fudd (most of the time, it pitted Daffy Duck against Bugs Bunny). An elephant even made a cameo in the short pushing Elmer under the ground.At the end of the short, the sign on the tree showed 'Elmer Season', which made Bugs and Daffy to hunt for Elmer.This short could be considered as one of the best cartoon short directed by Chuck Jones.What a great classics!!!

Lee Eisenberg In the first of three Bugs Bunny/Daffy Duck/Elmer Fudd combinations, Bugs and Daffy perpetually try to get Elmer to shoot the other. Sure enough, through various tricks, Bugs gets Elmer to shoot Daffy (well, his bill at least). And this one had a most unusual ending.What was always great about these combinations was the idea that they portrayed: the loud, mindless Daffy always tries to undermine the integrity of the calm, perceptive Bugs, but always gets his just desserts. It's sort of like how Wile E. Coyote always tries to harm Road Runner, but always gets harmed himself.Anyway, "Rabbit Fire" is a real classic.
