Just perfect...

best movie i've ever seen.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

This is a Bugs Bunny short produced by Warner Brothers. There will be spoilers ahead:This is a Bugs Bunny short with a one shot nemesis, a Texas oilman whose temper rivals Yosemite Sam's. The short starts out on a series of signs which play off one another (Deepinaharta TX, for example) with the last, Deepinahola TX, pointing down to Bugs's hole. An incredibly long stretch limo driving down the highway carries the oilman and he's heard calling his driver ("long distance" through an operator switchboard in the middle of the limo). The oilman orders his driver, a silent cowboy named Maverick, to stop the car, as there's a hole on his property "ain't a-gushin' oil outen it!", which is impossible in Texas.Maverick dutifully stops and gets on a motor scooter to drive to the passenger compartment to get his boss and they check out the hole. After an oil derrick is built by Maverick, Bugs comes out and has words with the oilman and the battle of wits is joined. Silly oilman apparently hasn't seen any Bugs cartoons or he'd get back in his limo and leave.Bugs gets the better of the oilman repeatedly and then sends Maverick down the hole after Bugs. That doesn't work at all, so the oilman goes down, not realizing that Bugs is impersonating Maverick even when Maverick runs up to him in the hole.After the ground is literally packed with dynamite, the oilman does something incredibly silly which leads to a thoroughly hilarious and improbable ending, anywhere but Texas, that is.This short is available on the Looney Toons Golden Collection, Volume 5 DVD and is well worth getting. Most recommended.

While not the best of the canon, Oily Hare is a fun and worthwhile Looney Tunes. The animation is colourful and vibrant with interesting character designs, and the music is fun and authentic. The dialogue is great and filled with clever puns, while the sight gags are funny and the story doesn't fall into the trap of being predictable. The ending is also effective, and Bugs and the Texan are fun individually and together, coupled with superb voice work from Mel Blanc. The cartoon is a little too fast at times but overall, it is a very good and perhaps under-seen cartoon.8/10 Bethany Cox

While "Oily Hare" has its plot, the idea of a Texas oil well is what catches my attention. The unctuous - or should I say "oily" - tycoon here is exactly the type who would have forced the Cajuns off of their land in Louisiana, just as he tries to do to Bugs Bunny. And we see how much the oil industry affects policy today.Of course, I've probably gone too far in analyzing this cartoon. I'm sure that it was intended as crazy entertainment, and it certainly entertains. When they start playing Raymond Scott's "Powerhouse" is when you know that you're in for something really cool, and boy are you! Anyway, a pretty funny one.

In this decent Bob McKimson short, Bugs' hole is mistaken for a oil well in Texas by a rich Texan and his mute sidekick.One of the strengths of this short is the pantomime of the sidekick, Maverick. A decent character that could have been brought back on occasion, like Mugsy.Definite must see if you never have. 8/10
