Storyline
Did you know
- Trivia"8 Ball Bunny" has a double connection to Humphrey Bogart: 1) Bogart's character from The Treasure of the Sierra Madre shows up several times in caricature, begging money from Bugs. 2) Bugs sings a song in calypso style summarizing the plot up to that point. This exact song formula was used a year later for the Bogart and Bacall radio series, BOLD VENTURE, after the commercial break.
- GoofsWhen the ship leaves New Orleans, it steams into wide open water. New Orleans is a port on the Mississippi, a river that empties into the Gulf Of Mexico some 80 miles away. New Orleans is not a port that faces directly on the Gulf. When one looks from Jackson Square toward the port, what one sees is the Mississippi, the river's south bank and Algiers, not open water.
- Quotes
Bugs Bunny: [singing while playing guitar] Bugs Bunny came to Martinique / When he arrived he was pretty weak / His knees look like they would buckle in / His tribulations caused by a penguin / Now he's built a boat on which they both could leave / He hoped that fickle fate have nothing up her sleeve.
Bogart: Say, pardon me but, could you help out a fellow American who's down on his luck?
Bugs Bunny: [tossing him a coin] Hit da road!
[singing]
Bugs Bunny: If he should accomplish this daring thing / A miracle to Martinique Bugs did bring.

If you're like me, you'll fall in love with that cute little penguin (who can resist melting when he cries ice cubes?) and laugh as Bugs strains himself to help him out. Definitely a classic to love and watch over and over.
