KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?

Thehibikiew Not even bad in a good way

Tetrady not as good as all the hype

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Edgar Allan Pooh " . . . stow the mizzen mast! Jibe the jib boom! Hoist the main sail! Lower the tatter sail! Look sharp, man! Pipe the starboard hatch on the leeward thwarts! Trim the scuppers on the port poop deck! (What a maroon!)" Bugs Bunny says these last three words to the camera, in the bloated guise of the Bounty's infamous Captain Bligh, as Yosemite Sam, a.k.a., Sea-Going' Sam, a.k.a., The Pirate Redbeard, a.k.a. Fletcher Christian, runs around like a French Queen with her head cut off, in this dramatization of the last minutes of Sam's ship, La Marie Douce. When Sam finally realizes that Bugs-as-Bligh's string of nautical gibberish has no purpose (other than to give him the run-around), Sam calls out the BUCCANEER BUNNY, cursing, "Blast your scuppers, you barnacle-bitten Landlubber!" Though most animation aficionados agree that "Popeye" is the best series of sea-going cartoons in film history, BUCCANEER BUNNY holds its own in the ranks of humorous salty tales (being much funnier than Warner's earlier Porky Pig outing, KRISTOPHER KOLUMBUS, JR., for instance). "Jibe the jib boom!" indeed!

John T. Ryan HAVING ONLY TWO characters on screen for the entire 6 or so minutes would likely seem to be problematic to most animators and their production teams. This was not so for I. "Fritz" Freleng in this mini masterpiece of the Art of the Theatrical Cartoon Short. All they needed in this Warner Brothers' LOONEY TUNES release was Bugs Bunny and their then new "Hot Property" of a comic foil, YOSEMITE SAM.IN THIS PICTURE, Sam is cast as a Pirate. Instead of a Western Cowboy-type Desperado, 'Yosemite' Sam, he is dubbed 'Seagoing' Sam. This is truly a minor point. as the character's quick temper, loud voice and manic discharge of energy ate all well served in his going to sea.ALTHOUGH ITS LENGTH and running time are about 6 1/2 minutes, it manages to cram in a good deal of gags which are representative of many categories. Multi cannon discharges (with Sam always being on the receiving end), a sequence of Sam's attempting to launch himself to the Crow's Nest seems borrowed fro the ROAD RUNNER & COYOTE Series and even a reference to MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY & Charles Laughton's characterization of CAPTAIN BLIGH abound.AS WITH MOST entrants in the LOONEY TUNES & MERRIE MELODIES series, there are plenty of nyuks inside. Just remember to suggest offering to share the titles with others; be they toddlers, teen-agers or grumpy old guys like m'self!

Cihan "Sean Victorydawn" Vercan (CihanVercan) Buccaneer Bunny features Yosemite Sam's second encounter with Bugs after their premiere in Hare Trigger(1945). In Hare Trigger Sam was more advantageous to Bugs, as a train robber, where Bugs was a passenger. Provided that with Buccaneer Bunny, Sam as a pirate, he has a lot to worry about. Sam's sore points give Bugs a chance to twit him every time.At the beginning, Sam was burying his pirate treasure to a deserted island, where he comes across to Bugs putting on the jewels taken out of the treasure chest. When Sam takes back his treasury from Bugs, he tends to carry the treasure to a different island. But Bugs never lets him to do so. Leaving Sam alone in the island, Bugs takes the oars of Sam's rowboat, and swims to the pirate ship. Following him, Sam swims for the oars. He takes back the oars, then swims back to the island to take the rowboat and to row it back to his ship. It was Sam's prevailing mastermind that he cares more about his rowboat than his treasure chest. Later on, Sam starts to worry about his pirate ship; he leaves the treasure in the island, and goes to ship for not allowing Bugs to cause any trouble.First stealing his treasure, then blowing up his pirate ship; Bugs plays Sam's biggest menace in a masterly manner. He takes Sam into his service as a call-boy, masquerading a famous captain. The memorable moments of this episode are how Bugsy hides cannon fires behind doors, behind cabinets, above conning towers, within rabbit holes... Wherever Sam looking for Bugs, he's having detonating cannon balls to his face over and over again.These must be the highest explosive effects in a Looney Tunes episode. More than half the length of the time Sam appears in charcoal dust. Every explosive effect brings a laughter effect beside it. This episode is available in the MGM/UA video of Starring Bugs Bunny and Friends (1990).

Mightyzebra Before I first watched this Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam episode, I already expected some of the jokes, because I had watched the remake, "Captain Hareblower". The remake is quite funny and very slapsticky, but not quite as good as "Buccaneer Bunny" which includes slightly better jokes among the slapstick and farce.Anyhow, in this episode, Yosemite Sam, starring, as he phrases it, "The best buccaneer on the Spanish Main", is digging a hole to bury a trunk-full of treasure. However, it turns out he has dug into the burrow/warren of Bugs Bunny, who, from another supply of treasure buried before, is adorned in expensive earrings, necklaces and bracelets: in other words, jewellery. The buccaneer is not pleased with having this bunny before him, especially as Bugs tells him he will know where Sam will bury his treasure. Cartoon chaos ensues...I like this episode because of the animation and the jokes in it, even some of the slapstick ones are quite funny and good to watch. Bugs Bunny is as good as he usually is, tricking Yosemite Sam a great deal of times.I recommend this episode to people who like/ do not mind cartoon slapstick, Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam. Enjoy "Buccaneer Bunny"! :-)
