"What's Opera, Doc?" to a Modern Beat


(Video Link)


Eighteen years ago, professional animators voted the classic Bugs Bunny cartoon "What's Opera, Doc?" the greatest animated film of all time. I would certainly agree that it and "The Rabbit of Seville" are the greatest Bugs Bunny cartoons ever. Here's dj BC's quick-paced remix that adds hip hop beats to "What's Opera, Doc?"

They're good. They're very good. But not the best.

There is, of course, the ineffable Duck Dodgers in the 24 1/2 Century.

There is the indescribabable Duck Amuck.

There is Rabbit Fire. ("Rabbit Season! Duck Season!")

And I'd like to offer up a personal favourite, Compressed Hare (probably the best of the four Bugs v Wile E Coyote cartoons.)

My 10c.

I am having mixed opinions.
Does this suck?
Or does it blow?

Part of the original humor was the use of Wagner's opera in a cartoon setting.
The "hip-hop" overlaying merely distracts.

I have been watching this since say, October... such a catchy tune. I always use it to cheer me up! <3

check out the user's other videos as well... equally cute and hilarious!

Well, of course it sticks in your head; it's insipid. That's why I can never understand people who use "catchy" as a positive term. Catchy is incredibly easy to write and annoying to anyone with any sense of musical taste.

I'm just amazed that anyone could find that rubbish catchy.

Maybe I'm just tired of the endless spew of cute animal videos accompanied by crappy songs. Maybe we need some real animal situations.

There's a bulldog squatting on my lawn.

It's a sack, full of kitty cats. And they meow, meow, meow, and they splash, splash, splash.

OK. That was undeniably cute. Now pass me the ear bleach. The "Demon DJ" in my head is going to get a lot of use out of that little tune...
