Battle of Funny Bunker Hill Comics
Bugs And Sam Fight It Out In 1776
Information technology'south 1776 and the Revolutionary War is on. No, it's non "Bunker Hill," as the graphic get-go shows. It'southward not "Yorktown," it'southward the "Battle of Bagle Heights." (Okaaay.)
Anyway, the "boxing" is strictly between two contestants, the only ones at each fort. Yosemite Sam, known in this film as "Sam Von Schmamm, the Hussion," battles Bugs Bunny.
Most of the cartoon features the 2 adversaries firing cannons at 1 another or charging each other with bayonets. Needless to say, ole Sam takes the worst of information technology on each occasion. Although information technology's strictly a one-joke cartoon, I enjoyed it. I laughed at some of the old-time clichés and expressions Sam used while yelling at Bugs, such as: "You ornery, fur-bearing rebel! Yous'll pay for this! You amend say your prayers, y'all flea-bitten varmit!"
Bugs has simply one answer: "Ah, your mother blows chimera gum!"

What you would expect from a Yosemite Sam and Bugs Bunny cartoon, but information technology nevertheless has its moments.
"Bunker Hill Bunny" has quite an erstwhile-fashioned appeal nigh it. It is 1 of the slightly older Looney Tunes cartoons and it is vaguely fix in 1776. The jokes are usual for a YS and BB short, just in that location is the occasional witty speaking or slapstick joke.
Basically, Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam are two separate sides of the "Bagel" boxing and they have their own forts and their own cannons and guns within their forts. Bugs Bunny, of grade, fights against Yosemite Sam and the consequences are non overly surprising, simply nevertheless pretty amusing to picket.
This cartoon moved forth a little slowly, which may put off certain viewers. Bugs Bunny was particularly good in this episode (normally he is anyway when paired with Yosemite Sam - sometimes he is not). Also, the residue between the slapstick and speaking jokes is surprisingly like. I might not watch it again, merely information technology was good for a single viewing.
I recommend this to people who like traditional Yosemite Sam and Bugs Bunny Looney Tunes and to people who similar a proficient balance of slapstick and speaking jokes. Enjoy "Bunker Colina Bunny"! :-)

"I'thou a Hessian without no aggression. If you can't trounce 'em, join 'em"
Not Bugs Bunny or Yosemite Sam at their all-time, simply everyone who loves the 2 characters whether individually or together will observe much to like here in 'Bunker Hill Bunny'.
A couple of the gags do drag on a piffling longer than they should practice, and every bit 'Bunker Loma Bunny' is pretty ane-joke it'south a tad repetitive (inevitable for i-joke cartoons). However fifty-fifty when Bugs and Sam were not at their all-time, they notwithstanding were always watchable and even their weaker cartoons (not proverb this is) are ameliorate than those of most other Looney Tunes partnerships.
The animation is as ever excellent, made during a period when Looney Tunes were at their peak in quality (which was a long time until they went into decline around the mid-60s). Every bit said in my review for 'Hare Elevator' from two years later, the blitheness is fatigued absolutely beautifully, the colours are vibrant but never garish and there is a lot of meticulous detail here. Both Bugs and Yosemite Sam are well fatigued and their movements move easily, Sam here being more kinetic in movement is a touch more than expressive.
Carl Stalling is my favourite of the regular Looney Tunes composers and ane of few cartoon composers to never put a foot wrong. His music score for 'Bunker Hill Bunny' is no exception. Equally e'er with Stalling, the music is supremely characterful and energetic, the orchestration is lush and clever and most importantly aside from that it's very memorable it fits with to the action and adds to information technology, Stalling as well showing his possibly unmatched power at that fourth dimension to enhance the activity, particularly when scenes get more energised and desperate.
If anybody is looking for good dialogue and gags in a Bugs Bunny/Yosemite Sam drawing, they won't be disappointed. There are some very witty and hilarious lines here, both from Bugs and Sam that evidence off their character traits brilliantly. Despite 'Bunker Loma Bunny' being a one-joke cartoon there is plenty variation in nearly of the gags to make them funny and most are timed very well, with Sam getting the worst of it. The office with the gunpowder in Sam's pants is just priceless.
Both Bugs and Sam demonstrate what makes them such bully characters in the first identify, and their chemistry is gleefully enjoyable. Mel Blanc provides some bravura voice work for both characters, specially as annoying Sam.
Overall, very solid, well-made and fun just not amongst the all-time Bugs and Yosemite Sam outings. 8/10 Bethany Cox

very fun
Yosemite Sam battles it out with Bugs Bunny in the niggling known "Boxing of Bagel Heights" in the American War of Independence. I've seen this one on Boob tube so ofttimes growing upwardly that I could quote the whole thing give-and-take for give-and-take by the fourth dimension I was nine. My caput tells me there are manner meliorate Looney Tunes shorts out there, but my heart tells me that this is one of the most fun. My middle wins out for the virtually part and this brusk never fails to bring a smile upon my face no matter what mood that I'thou in. This animated short can be found on disc four of the Looney Tunes Aureate Collection Volume i.

"You lot better say your prayers, you flea-bitten varmint!"
Alarm: Spoilers
1776. The American Revolution. And ii of the most unlikely characters ever to participate: Bugs Bunny and Sam Von Schmamm the Hessian (Yosemite Sam). This becomes the setting for "Bunker Hill Bunny", directed past Friz Freleng.
The truthful delight of this cartoon is the repetition of Sam getting himself blasted by cannon fire. Three examples that stand out are: Sam and Bugs repeatedly exchanging cannonballs; Sam charging inside Bugs' cannon, and then getting blasted into the air and landing back inside his own fort with another explosion; and Sam marching towards Bugs' fort while playing a snare drum, and so getting blasted by a cannon, turning around, and chop-chop marching back to his own fort with the drum cadency sped upwardly.
1 of the other advantages of "Bunker Colina Bunny" is Bugs' nonchalant attitude as Sam attacks his fort. This only adds to the humor of Sam'south ineptitude; Bugs ever seems to KNOW that he, Bugs, is in control and that Sam will never outwit him.

Patriotism equally it should be!
More of Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam facing off, this time ready during the Revolutionary War (in the Battle of Bagle Heights; become effigy!). Equally always, Sam - in this case his name is Sam Von Schamm the Hessian - tries to become Bugs but Bugs always outsmarts him. Much of the humor involves explosives (well duh, they're at war). I will say that some of the scenes drug on a trivial likewise long, but the whole end gag pretty much makes upward for whatsoever shortcomings.
So, "Bunker Colina Bunny" may not be the best Looney Tunes cartoon ever, but it certainly has its moments. It's not cannon fodder (pun intended) in whatever way.
"If you tin't beat 'em, join 'em." Well, there are sure groups whom I would never join.

Bunker Loma Bunny is another Bugs Bunny-Yosemite Sam cartoon
tavm 8 January 2008
Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam are at it again! This time, it'southward the Revolutionary War at the Boxing of Bagel Heights. The rabbit and the ornery short guy are the but people at their respective forts and neither wants to surrender their base of operations of operations. Equally they keep charging into each other'due south forts, flags saying "We" with a carrot (Bugs', of course) and "They" (Sam's) modify places inside each. They also accuse cannon balls at each other with the rabbit always catching his inside the cannon and Sam doing the same until Bugs plugs a cork on Sam'due south cannon. Wanna judge what happens when Sam pulls the cork from his? I'll stop here and say this was another funny cartoon short from Friz Freling. And remember, "If you tin can't trounce 'em, bring together 'em."

Bugs and Sam
Bunker Hill Bunny (1950)
*** 1/2 (out of 4)
Set during the Revolutionary State of war, Bugs Bunny must protect his fort from the hateful-spirited Sam Von Schamm The Hessian (Yosemite Sam). The two are constantly at battle but poor old Sam always finds a way to be out smarted. This is yet another winning pic that takes the Bugs and Sam characters and does wonders with them. The motion-picture show contains action from the opening to closing scenes and in that location are plenty of laughs sprinkled in also. I'm not sure what it is simply at that place'southward just something special about seeing poor Sam constantly getting diddled up. The toughness that his character talks just seems all the more funny because he's never tough enough to win. The scene with the gunpowder in Sam's pants is a classic.

"Ya improve say your prayers, ya flea-bitten varmint! I'm a gonna accident ya to smithereenies!"
Set in the Revolutionary State of war, this brusk pits minuteman Bugs Bunny against Hessian Sam von Schamm (Yosemite Sam). The two charge at each other a lot, exchanging cannon burn down and fifty-fifty swapping forts. It'south all fast-paced and funny. You know what y'all're getting from a Bugs vs Sam short and this one doesn't disappoint. The jokes and gags are all funny. Even the baseball gags, which are hardly fresh, are fun to watch. At 1 point Sam tells Bugs he has him "outnumbered one to one." I'thou not sure if that was the offset fourth dimension Sam used this line only it wouldn't be the concluding. My favorite bit was when Sam was carrying the barrel of gunpowder from his fort to Bugs' and not realizing it was leaking into his pants. You can predict what will happen adjacent simply it's nonetheless hilarious to watch.

When nuclear weapons are outlawed . . .
Warning: Spoilers
. . . but outlaws will have nukes, Warner Bros. argues with its animated curt, BUNKER Hill BUNNY. Bugs Bunny turns his giant cannon here into an "Atomic number 26 Dome" defense shield, catching all of Yosemite Sam's cannonballs and lobbing them back into the muzzle from which they issued. Sam is playing the part of a Hessian terrorist here, but he could only as easily be North Korean, Western farsi, or Kentuckian in this timeless tale. Warner'southward lesser line is that Bugs must fight burn with burn down, then why shouldn't America have a National Nuke Association (NNA) for anyone who can afford the dues? After all, nukes don't kill people--people practice. If yous're a corporate CEO making 10,000 times the median annual American wage, WHY should y'all need to pay 100 employees to guard your stuff with assault rifles? What if your security staff is attacked by 200 shotgun-wielding socialists bent upon income redistribution? BUNKER HILL BUNNY contends that if you lot can afford to defend your stuff with private nukes, who is the government to tell you "No!"? Bugs and Sam take their own individual cannons hither. You lot and I and Bill Gates should not be denied our nukes!

Nosotros.... They
(*Bugs Bunny/Yosemite Sam quote*) - "CHARGE!!!"
The year is 1776 and Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam (as Sam Von Schamm) are contesting it out from dissever camps on Bagle Heights.
As yous can well-imagine (among all of the bombing and blasting) some really outrageously comical situations take place between these 2 opposing camps.

The usual hijinks...
...only this time not up to the usual high standard. It's a one-joke drawing that kinda stretches it'south premise also sparse.
Bugs is his usual cocky only Yosemite Sam is now Sam Von Schamm The Hessian and during the American Revolutionary War they have a face-off in the Battle of Bagel Heights. Basically, this involves Bugs doing his usual outsmarting of Sam and torturing him, bravado him upward etc. Near of the time this never gets tiring.
Though some of the jokes drag on chip but the others have that sense of perfect timing only Looney Tunes are capable of. Not their best piece of work but however adept for a few silly laughs.

Neat entertainment value.
And that's all this cartoon has actually got for it. It'south highly amusing, Probably some of Sam and Bugs'southward Best jokes take place in this cartoon, but it's just a piddling apparently and elementary with that discarded, and to be honest Is really just bugs and sam fighting over and over again. Maybe I should accept watched this in History class!!
There's really not much to expand on this cartoon, just watch the Cartoon for yourself if you haven't seen it.

A well-rounded but occasionally dull cartoon
Friz Freleng's 'Bunker Hill Bunny' literally opens with a bang as a series of explosions frame captions informing u.s.a. that it is 1776 and our setting is the battle of Bagle Heights. Two opposing forts (with the beautifully satirical identifying flags "They" and "We") substitution cannon fire. The inhabitants of these forts plough out to be Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam a.k.a. Sam Von Schamme the Hessian. Then the scene is set for battle. As a child I always enjoyed these cartoons in which the characters fight from a altitude and I however remember it puts an interesting spin of the formula. Bugs has to do all his heckling beyond the constant big space between him and Sam. This results in a different style of comedy than in the majority of cartoons in which Bugs can be more hands-on. Unfortunately, it also results in a couple of lengthy dorsum-and-forth gags involving flags and cannonballs that quickly get repetitive and tedious. These moments aside (absolutely, the cannonball routine has a very funny punchline) 'Bunker Hill Bunny' is a reliably enjoyable if unremarkable short. There's enough good lines ("I've got you lot outnumbered one to i") and sight gags ("He Got It!") to counter the irksome or predictable jokes and go on most drawing fans contented until the neatly wrapped-up climax.
