Edgar Allan Pooh . . . to warn America against computers with this animated short, TO HARE IS HUMAN. It turns out that Wile E. Coyote is an Early Adopter of the Univac Computer. However, before the conclusion of HUMAN Mr. Coyote gets blown up five times and crushed once. It develops that his Univac has been hacked by Bugs Bunny, turning Wile's life upside down. By the end of this episode, it's revealed that Bugs is Alan Turing (who won WWII by decoding the Nazi Enigma Machine), Edward Snowden, and the Dread Pirate Roberts, all rolled into one. A country that turns its financial system, record keeping, and national security over to computers deserves to be Terrorized back to Stone Age Anarchy by every pajama-clad Third World hacker clicking away in some tent, tee pee, igloo, or cave, Warner points out to America with HUMAN. However, tax dollars have been squandered for the past 60 years on public schools teaching fluff like sex and driver's education, rather than worthwhile subjects, such as Looney Tunes. Since you get what you pay for, Today's U.S. roads are clogged with bad drivers, our birth rate has never been lower, and computers lurk around every corner.
utgard14 Taking time out from his fruitless pursuit of the Road Runner, Wile E. Coyote tries to nab Bugs Bunny. He introduces himself with a card that reads "Have Brain, Will Travel." And yes, this is one of the cartoons where Wile E. Coyote (or "Coyotay") talks. Of course, Bugs proves to be too much for Wile E. to handle. So the coyote builds a Univac Electronic Brain from a do-it-yourself kit. It's a super computer and he consults it on the best way to capture Bugs. There's a fun little twist to this but, suffice it to say, Wile E. is screwed . It's a fun Chuck Jones cartoon with colorful animation and some creative gags. Love the Univac. Great voicework from Mel Blanc, as usual. Wile E. Coyote is a fun adversary for Bugs in the few shorts they did together.
slymusic "To Hare Is Human" is a Warner Bros. cartoon directed by Chuck Jones that pairs Wile E. Coyote with.......Bugs Bunny! Quite an unusual combination, but it works. Just add a distinctive voice of elegance for the Coyote, and substitute Bugs for the Road Runner, and you've got it made.My favorite scenes: I love the opening, in which the Coyote introduces himself to Bugs and offers a long scholarly explanation about the advantages of his own brainpower, after which Bugs plants an explosive surprise for him and dances back towards his hole while singing "Sweet Georgia Brown". While the Coyote attempts to burglarize Bugs' hole, Bugs (reading in bed while wearing a bunny-eared nightcap) tosses a banana peel for the Coyote to slip on. The Coyote throws a stick of dynamite in Bugs' vacuum; Bugs climbs out of his hole (his ears tied together like a kerchief), dances a jig toward a trash can (where the Coyote awaits), and dumps the contents of his vacuum."To Hare Is Human", and to err is Coyote!
rbverhoef In 'To Hare Is Human' we see a talking Wile E. Coyote trying to catch Bugs Bunny (both with the voice of Mel Blanc). The Coyote uses an elevator to go down in the rabbits hole, is actually able to catch Bugs but then he spoils it by explaining to Bugs who he is: Wile E. Coyote, Genius. After this Coyote invents a Univac Electric Brain that must help him to catch Bugs, but of course things do not go as planned.This is a nice cartoon. I like the talking Coyote although his silent one, from the Road Runner cartoons, is probably more fun. There are some good gags here. Especially the one where the Coyote asks his machine what to do next and the machine sends him to the real purpose of the Coyote in every cartoon is a great one. Recommended.
