[edit] Music

Is all the music based on Wagner? I thought there was quite a bit of Rossini in there as well, and maybe some others (it's years since I saw it). Maybe I'm thinking of a different cartoon, though. --Camembert

I think there was a Barber of Seville cartoon too. Ortolan88

That'll probably be it. Ignore me, I'm losing it. --Camembert

That would be the Rabbit of Seville. Another classic --Steve Rapaport 18:29, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Availability

It's now available for purchase in the iTunes Store for $1.99 as part of the Bugs Bunny, Vol. 1 collection. But because it's paired with another episode titled "Bugs Bunny Gets the Boid", it's the second show on the track and doesn't start until 7:26. It's nice to have it on my iPod though. --71.9.124.21 (talk) 09:50, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Elmer's reaction

Why is Elmer sad for "killing the wabbit" when that was his plan the entire time? He was the same way in The Old Grey Hare, when he shoots Old Bugs. NBK1122 (talk) 01:49, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Other than asking those that conceived and created the character of Elmer Fudd and his personality, one has to assume that since this is a cartoon, and reality isn't a factor, aside from deep psychological evaluations, it's just funny. Elmer is the "mighty hunter" who turns out to be a softy once he actually accomplishes his "misson". "Hunter's Remorse" perhaps, which is the twist that makes for the humor. The once overly armed hunter with his shotgun, or in this case, "spear and magic hewmet" which is infinitely more powerful than his standard firearm, having taken his revenge, now weeps pitiously over his victim.

[edit] "enormously fat" (the white horse)

Isn't that redundant? NBK1122 (talk) 01:51, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
