^ I wouldn't be surprised to find out one day that he secretly did the voices of Mickey Mouse, Scooby Doo, Goofy, Daffy Duck, and Bugs Bunny.

It's like the reverse of one of those Bugs Bunny cartoons.

"You will leave", "I will not leave"
"You will leave", "I will not leave"
"You will leave", "I will not leave"
"You will leave", "I will leave"
"You will not leave", "I will leave"
"You will not leave", "I will leave"
"You will not leave", "I will leave"

or that anthropomorphic sources exist in relevant volumes.


Anthropomorphic? Isn't that like when you give human qualities to animals? Then I totally agree! I don't think Bugs Bunny is responsible for global warming at all! *goes back to watching cartoons*

My mother claimed that she knew of someone who had a "crabbit" and I couldn't convince her otherwise. Of course, such a thing is impossible. (Shades of the jackalope. . .)

Pprt is correct. I once owned a Manx that I named Bugs (after Bugs Bunny) for the very reason that he had large hind legs (six toes on each paw) and this peculiar way of walking and running that was reminscent of a rabbit.

According to Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucia_di_Lammermoor#Trivia, it's been used in;

The "Lucia Sextet" (Chi mi frena in tal momento?) was recorded in 1908 by Enrico Caruso, Marcella Sembrich, Antonio Scotti, Marcel Journet, Barbara Severina, and Francesco Daddi, (Victor single-sided 70036) and released at the price of $7.00, earning it the title of "The Seven-Dollar Sextet". The film The Great Caruso incorporates a scene featuring a performance of this sextet.

The "Lucia Sextet" melody is best known to some from its use by the American slapstick comedy team the Three Stooges in their short films Micro-Phonies and Squareheads of the Round Table, sung in the latter with the lyrics "Oh, Elaine, can you come out tonight...." But the melody is used most dramatically in Howard Hawks' gangster classic "Scarface": Tony Camonte (Paul Muni) whistles "Chi mi frena?" in the film's opening sequence, as he guns down a ganglord boss he has been assigned to protect.

It has also been used in Warner Brothers cartoons: Long-Haired Hare, sung by the opera singer (Bugs Bunny's antagonist); Book Revue, sung by the wolf antagonist; and in Back Alley Oproar, sung by a choir full of Sylvesters, the cat.

The "Lucia Sextet" melody also figures in two scenes from the 2006 film The Departed, directed by Martin Scorsese. In one scene, Jack Nicholson's character is shown at a performance of "Lucia di Lammermoor", and the music on the soundtrack is from the sextet. Later in the film, Nicholson's cell phone ringtone is the sextet melody.

The Sextet is also featured during a scene from the 1986 comedy film, The Money Pit.

In the children's book "The Cricket in Times Square," Chester Cricket chirps the tenor part to the "Lucia Sextet" as the encore to his farewell concert, literally stopping traffic in the process.

An aria from the "mad scene," "Il dolce suono" (from the 3rd Act), was re-popularized when it was featured in the film The Fifth Element in a performance by the alien diva Plavalaguna (voiced by Albanian soprano Inva Mula-Tchako and played onscreen by French actress Maïwenn Le Besco). A loose remake of this film version of the song was covered by Russian pop singer Vitas.

The "mad scene" was also used in the first episode of the anime series Gankutsuou (in place of L'Italiana in Algeri which was the opera used in that scene in The Count of Monte Cristo).

The "mad scene" aria, as sung by Inva Mula-Tchako, was used in an episode of Law & Order: Criminal Intent involving the murder of a young violinist by her opera singer mother (who performs the song right after the murder).

The "mad scene" was released as a music video by Russian male soprano Vitas in 2006.

Among other selections from the opera, the "mad scene", "Verranno a te sull'aure", and "Che facesti?" feature prominently in the 1983 Paul Cox film Man of Flowers, especially "Verranno a te sull'aure," which accompanies a striptease in the film's opening scene.

The opera is mentioned in the novels The Count of Monte Cristo, Madame Bovary and Where Angels Fear to Tread and was reputedly one of Tolstoy's favorites.

"Regnava nel silenzio" accompanies the scene in Beetlejuice in which Lydia (Winona Ryder) composes a suicide note.

A portion of the opera is also used in a key scene of the film The Fifth Element, written and directed by Luc Besson.

The ending was lame.. A Bugs Bunny TNT charred smoking head ending would have been funnier.

This is the "before" footage of Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny. Then the hair tonic prank occurred, and things went very, very bad...

You can blame Bugs Bunny for 'maroon'.

Same thing happens in the US from what I've heard. There are always a couple of thousand votes going to "Bugs Bunny" and such. I wonder why those people even bother voting in the first place.

I also hope people realized that putting "Darth Vader" on any ballot in the US counted as a vote for Dick Cheney's ticket in the last 2 elections.

If I had to make an educated guess, I'd say it's an add-on piece that was animated to bridge together classic clips that were used to make the first Bugs Bunny & Roadrunner Movie. The animation definitely looks 70's, and you can hear Blanc's voice is a lot more mature for the characters.

A 1957 cartoon short in the Merrie Melodies series, directed by Chuck Jones for Warner Bros. Cartoons. The film features Bugs Bunny being chased by Elmer Fudd through a six-minute and 11 second operatic parody of 19th century classical composer Richard Wagner's operas, particularly Der Ring des Nibelungen (The Ring of the Nibelung) and Tannhäuser. It is sometimes characterized as a condensed version of Wagner's Ring, and its music borrows heavily from the second opera Die Walküre, woven around the standard Bugs-Elmer conflict.
Originally released to theaters by Warner Bros. on July 6, 1957, What's Opera, Doc? features the speaking and singing voices of Mel Blanc as Bugs and Arthur Q. Bryan as Elmer (except for one word dubbed by Blanc). The short is also sometimes informally referred to as Kill the Wabbit after the line sung by Fudd to the tune of Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries," the opening passage from Act Three of Die Walküre (which is also the leitmotif of the Valkyries).
In 1994, What's Opera, Doc? was voted #1 of the 50 Greatest Cartoons of all time by 1000 members of the animation field.

Reminds me of Chester and Alfie, the big and little dog from the Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show.
