Amazon.com: The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie Chuck Jones directed some of the funniest shorts in the history of filmmaking, and this 1979 feature-length compilation includes several of his best cartoons. Among the 11 shorts shown in their entirety are the classics "Robin Hood Daffy," "What's Opera, Doc?," "Bully for Bugs," and "Duck Amuck," which remain as hilarious as they were when first released 50 years ago. As with any collection, the viewer wonders why some films were omitted or cut ("Long Haired Hare" combs footage from several Road Runner shorts into a 20-minute montage weakening the pacing). These caveats aside, The Bugs Bunny Road Runner Movie provides a showcase not only for Jones's razor-sharp timing, but for the work of his exceptional crew, which included designer Maurice Noble, writer Mike Maltese, composers Carl Stalling and Milt Franklyn, and voice actor Mel Blanc. --Charles Solomon 1001 Rabbit Tales If Bugs Bunny were to direct his signature inquiry--"What's up, doc?"--toward the modern-day Warner Bros. creative team, he wouldn't be far off. For 1001 Rabbit Tales, they've doctored up a batch of classic cartoons featuring the carrot muncher and his bumbling comrades and bundled them, near seamlessly, into a feature-length film. Here's the premise: Bugs and Daffy, both book salesmen, are competing to sell the most copies of a kids' book. Instead of burrowing a beeline to his sales territory (he should have made a left at Albuquerque), Bugs ends up in the castle of Yosemite Sam, here a harem-leading honcho. Sam's pain-in-the-spurs son, Prince Abalaba, needs somebody to read him stories; Bugs, who'd sooner take the job than suffer the alternative, that involving being boiled in oil, signs on. Each rabbit-read narrative replaces a sedate story with a Loony Tunes favorite: In "Jack and the Beanstalk," a canary-keeping giant bellows "Fee, fi, fo, fat, I tawt I taw a puddy tat"; the witch in "Hansel and Gretel" develops a hankering for rabbit stew; "Goldilocks" goes feline as Sylvester swaps his porridge for suffering succotash on behalf of his bratty son. In the end, the varmint finds a way to vamoose, but, being a generous sort of bunny, he doesn't keep the address from his commission-hungry coworker. From there, the feathers fly, as does the rest of this feature, which is undiluted fun for fans of these cartoons from way back as well as those just getting to know the loopy Looney Tunes gang.

A definite classic You can't go wrong with this classic. My 3 1/2 year old loves this...as well well as I do!! Brings back great memories of childhood and what is real entertainment.
Bugs Bunny Road Runner Movie/1001 Rabbit Tales Bugs Bunny's best in two great movies! Great fun to watch over and over. Lots of "laugh out loud" entertainment!
Never gets old Who knew that Looney Tunes would remain funny after 50 years or so. Many of the best episodes are the oder ones. Many of today's cartoons are watered down since there is an atmosphere of 'offending people.' There's so many one liners and sophisticated jokes that these make cartoon watching hip. My kids love these cartoons as much as I did and I can't see that for many other programs. They are silly and bold without being gross.
Great Movies It's about time Warner Bros. put out The Bugs Bunny/ Road Runner Movie on DVD. This is a classic flick even if it is just a bunch of short's cobbled together with filler. The two best Looney Tunes films are Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie & The Looney, Looney, Looney Bugs Bunny Movie, which is unfortunately not included in this set. 1001 Rabbit Tales is not as good as the first film, but it is still a must have for Looney Tunes fans. I hope that Warner Bros. plans to release Looney...Bugs Bunny Movie in the future as well as some of the lesser movies such as Daffy Duck's Fantastic Island & Daffy Duck's Quackbuster's. It would be nice to have all of the Looney Tunes movies on DVD. The price tag on those golden collections is a bit high too while I'm at it. Any way, if your a fan of Looney Tunes or you have kids, buy this set... you wont be disappointed.
Bugs Bunny /Road Runner I purchased this DVD specifically for the cartoon "What's Opera Doc?". It is (and I know I am not alone), in my estimation, one of the finest pieces of animation ever created. I am delighted to own it!
