Opera Torture
23 May 2004
Warning: Spoilers
Quite happily playing the banjo and singing on the edge of his Rabbit hole, Bugs is rudely interrupted and his banjo broken when a huge, bullish Opera singer called Giovanni Jones throttles him for bugging him during opera practice. Of course you realize, this means war.

Bugs goes to his Opera and disguises himself as top conductor Leopold Stokowski (from Disney's Fantasia). Jones easily falls for the disguise and Bugs proceeds to torture him with the most difficult and straining Opera conducting ever. And it serves him right.

The cartoon reaches high and mighty levels of insane humor when Bugs forces Jones to maintain a huge, high note for several minutes, bringing on almost death. Once Jone's voice, and confidence, has caved in, Bugs brings his banjo back for a quick strum and last laugh.

Don't mess with the Bunny.
