The 1943 Bugs Bunny Cartoon "Wackiki Wabbit" is a little tiki-fied. Chuck Jones gives us some ahead-if-their-time (1950-ish) tapa cloth backgrounds, wears a mumu, gives out leis, gets down to some Polynesian rhythms (I think), gives us a Polynesian languange lesson (OK--that's gibberish) all featuring the lush tropical setting of Humuhumunukunukuapua'a'a'a'a'a Island. The best thing about this cartoon is Warner's foolishly let it slip into the public domain. Ha! I have the full, big-screen, 65megabyte, burn-to-DVR version HERE if you like Bugs Bunny. (If you don't , I don't wanna hear it!) I zipped it so people wouldn't watch it from my website. Please download the .zip file, unzip it and watch it in the comfort of your own home. |
