Watch 8 Ball Bunny For Free

I'll tell you why so serious

Good concept, poorly executed.

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

I love 8 Ball Bunny, it was both funny and extremely cute. The animation is beautiful, very colourful and lively, with nice backgrounds especially. The music is rousing and sweet too, and the dialogue sparkles with wit and zest, Bugs has the best lines but the repeated line said by Humphrey Bogart sure was funny. The sight gags are like the cartoon, funny and cute, especially when the little penguin cried or clapped. The characters are great, Bugs is both caring and reluctant, but the penguin held my attention the most. Maybe it's because I have a thing for penguins, but this particular penguin was adorable and melted my heart immediately. Overall, wonderful, well worth watching I think for the penguin alone. 10/10 Bethany Cox

Chuck Jones's '8 Ball Bunny' is a terrific sequel to the excellent 'Frigid Hare'. It's the second of two shorts which feature a cute character who came to be known as Playboy Penguin. A mute baby penguin dressed in top hat and bow-tie, Playboy is a great character whose cuteness is played up for exaggerated laughs, unlike Friz Freleng's sickening cutification of Tweety, which was mostly played for unsuccessful "awwwwws"! 'Frigid Hare' had played out as a traditional chase film with Bugs defending the penguin from a grotesque Eskimo stereotype. '8 Ball Bunny' widens the scope, presenting us with an epic road movie in which Bugs must travel across half the globe in order to return the penguin to the South Pole. Along the way he gets into numerous scrapes and continuously encounters a caricature of Humphrey Bogart in 'The Treasure of the Sierra Madre'. Although it was probably a wise choice to retire Playboy Penguin after just two appearances, both the cartoons that feature him are brilliant and, with its epic adventure story, '8 Ball Bunny' stands out as the best of the two.

Bugs Bunny had gotten acquainted with a penguin once before (in 1949's "Frigid Hare"), but this time he goes all out. After a penguin gets left in a performance hall, Bugs agrees to take the little guy to the South Pole. The journey down proves to be quite far from what anyone expected, especially given the Panama Canal tax and encounters with a certain movie star."8-Ball Bunny" is far from the greatest cartoon. It seems like one of the shorts that they made to fill in the gaps between the really famous ones (1950 also saw the release of "The Scarlet Pumpernickel" and "The Rabbit of Seville"). But no matter, it's got some neat scenes, namely the penguin's tears freezing. Worth seeing, if only once.Hoboken. Maybe he knew Frank Sinatra.

I like this cartoon a lot. Much of it is probably due to just how gosh darn cute the penguin is who co-stars in the cartoon! Bugs is minding his own business asleep at home when a tiny penguin comes falling into his hole. The penguin missed his truck when the show he was in folded and Bugs feels sorry enough for him he vows to help bring him home. They go across the globe getting into some awful scrapes in order to get the little guy home. At one point, they have to fight off hobos who want to eat the penguin ("they taste practically like chickens"), headhunters and being shipwrecked! Finally, they make it to the South Pole, at which point the penguin gives Bugs a copy of a newspaper clipping indicating he was born in Hoboken, NJ!
