"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?"

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.

@shadowfirebird -- all of those are strong episodes, particularly "Rabbit Fire."

And I do have a soft spot in my heart for the ancient Egyptian god of frustration.

Sorry, but I think he's ruined it. I prefer the original.

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.
