Bug’s Bunny’s 3rd Movie: 1001 Rabbit Tales (77 min)
Synopsis: Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck take to the road as two travelling book salesmen for Rambling House. They go their separate ways and experience many wacky adventures. Later, Bugs comes across Sultan Yosemite Sam's palace in the Arabian desert. Sam’s royal heir, Prince Abba-Dabba, demands that Bugs reads a sample of his wares – aloud. Now, to save his cottontail from the wrath of Sam, Bugs serves up an outrageous assortment of classic fairy tales featuring the Looney Tunes stars.
Cast: Mel Blanc (Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Yosemite Sam, Sylvester the Cat, Sylvester Jr., Speedy Gonzales, Tweety, Rover, Hassan, Hansel, Prince Charming, Big Bad Wolf, Genie, Beanstalk Giant, Elvis Gorilla, Stork); June Foray (Granny, Mother Gorilla, Goldimouse, Little Red Riding Hood); Shepard Menken (Old Storyteller); Lennie Weinrib (Prince Abba-Dabba); Bea Benaderet (Witch Hazel, Gretel); Arthur Q. Bryan (Elmer Fudd); Tom Holland (Slowpoke Rodriguez); William "Bill" Roberts (Michigan J. Frog - singing voice)
Directed by Friz Freleng
US Theatrical Release Date: November 19, 1982
US Home Media Release Dates: 1983 (VHS); July 3, 2001 (VHS); 2005 (DVD)
Trivia:
• This was the first Looney Tunes compilation film to use a completely original story and treat the included cartoon shorts as part of the story, as opposed to having the characters introduce the cartoons.
• This film was the first Warner cartoon compilation feature that used classic cartoon footage from more than one director.
• Many voice artists that were not credited in the original shorts are billed as "additional classic voices". For the first time, 23 years after his death, Arthur Q. Bryan (voice of Elmer Fudd) finally receives credit on a Warner Bros. production.
