Animation studio closed in 1963, \u201cFalse Hare\u201d is a dull, cheap-looking mess that fails at every level. <\/p>\n<p>B.B. Wolf and his nephew (who refers to the elder villain as \u201cUncle Big Bad\u201d) were dismal creations last seen in the 1958 mediocrity \u201cNow, Hare This,\u201d and it is baffling that director Robert McKimson and writer John Dunn would dig them up again for a series of tiresome and predictable slapstick gags. Even more bizarre is having Foghorn Leghorn in a gag appearance at the cartoon\u2019s denouement, as the gregarious rooster never had any connection to the Bugs Bunny adventures.<\/p>\n<p>Mercifully, Bugs Bunny was not among the characters included in a new series of cartoons created when Warner Bros. restarted its animated shorts output in 1964. Those post-Golden Age cartoons \u2013 which featured the disastrous pairing of Daffy Duck and Speedy Gonzales plus a revival of the Road Runner-Wile E. Coyote antics \u2013 gave new meaning to the word \u201catrocious.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>For the rest of the 1960s and into the early 1970s, Bugs would be confined to television, where repeated broadcasts of the Golden Age classics ensured his superstardom to new generations of cartoon lovers. <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"\/\/ok.ru\/videoembed\/7086242466382?nochat=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>False Hare (1964) Directed by Robert McKimson Story by John Dunn Animation by Warren Batchelder, George Grandpr\u00e9, Ted Bonnicksen Music by Bill Lava B.B.
