(Mel Blanc, et al / DVD / NR / (1977) 2010 / Warner Bros.)
Overview: 'Bugs Bunny’s Easter Funnies' is the animated Easter special that features a star-studded lineup of all-time favorite Looney Tunes characters - including Bugs Bunny, Sylvester, Granny, Pepe Le Pew, Foghorn Leghorn, Yosemite Sam and Daffy Duck.
DVD Verdict: In 'Bugs Bunny’s Easter Funnies,' Granny tries to recruit a substitute for the Easter Bunny when he falls ill. Someone has to help deliver Easter baskets and so Bugs Bunny and his pals all volunteer.
So, Granny thinks Bugs Bunny would be a good substitute, so she goes down to the Warner Brothers Studio where Bugs is filming 3 minute segments to complete his cartoons. Here she must sit through the various filmings and screenings of Looney Tunes Cartoon segments to try to talk to Bugs.
Each character auditions for Granny. Which Looney Tunes character makes the best Easter Bunny? Portions of legendary Looney Tunes cartoon shorts are cleverly mixed into the plot of this delightful special including:
1) Knighty Knight Bugs
2) Hillbilly Hare
3) Bully for Bugs
4) Tweety's Circus (Tweety & Sylvester)
5) Birds Anonymous (Tweety & Sylvester)
6) For Scent-Imental Reasons (Pepe Le Pew)
7) Rabbit Of Seville
8) Foghorn Leghorn cartoon
9) Robin Hood Daffy (Daffy & Porky)
10) Sahara Hare
Aside from the special, the DVD will also include a bonus short titled His Hare Raising Tale and three menu-based puzzle games. This is a Full Screen presentation (1.78:1) enhanced for 16x9 TVs.
