Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn the early 1940s Walt Disney was developing a feature film based on Roald Dahl's book "Gremlin Lore", and asked the other studios to refrain from producing gremlin films. While most of the studios complied, Warner Bros. already had two cartoons too far into production--this cartoon and Russian Rhapsody (1944). As a compromise, Leon Schlesinger re-titled the cartoons to remove any reference to gremlins. The original title was "Bugs Bunny and the Gremlin". Ultimately, the Disney film was not produced or released.
- GoofsThe Gremlin only starts one engine on the plane even though there are 2 engines.

Classic
I love Looney Tunes, and this is one of my favourites. It is very fast-paced without feeling rushed. It has a great and original story. The script is fresh and witty. The animation and settings look great, and don't look dated. The music has quirkiness and charm as well as a vast amount of energy. The gags are wonderfully timed and ones not to forget in a hurry. Bugs' mental breakdown is one of the best in cartoon history, and Bugs himself while different from his normal persona is just great. The gremlin is for me one of the most memorable foils/support characters in a Bugs Bunny cartoon, he looks cute but his actions suggest otherwise. Mel Blanc's vocals are superb. And not to mention, this is one of those cartoons where it does a very good job at keeping everything in sync, just hear how the gremlin strikes the bomb with his hammer in tune to the music, hearing that you'll probably agree that bit especially is very cleverly done. All in all, a classic. 10/10 Bethany Cox
