Marvin the Martian's debut...
11 August 2008
...Except he would not be called that for a few years!

Anyhow, this is one good cartoon! This cartoon is very impressive; it has a space rocket and a trip to the moon featured more than ten years before these things existed! If you watch the cartoon you will see what I mean. The only way you can tell that this cartoon was made before the famous trip made by Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin etc is because at the beginning there is a newspaper saying "Scientists Sent To Launch First Rocket To Moon" at the beginning of the episode. As well as all this good stuff about the cartoon, we have a good performance from Bugs Bunny, the first appearance of Marvin (who has an unfamiliar voice here), the first appearance of K-9 (who in ways is better than Marvin here), good plotting and good animation.

As I have mentioned before, a newspaper saying, "Scientists Sent To Launch First Rocket To Moon" to start off the cartoon. We then come to see the "eager" volunteer. Bugs Bunny is being dragged along by three men, crying out that he does not want to do this mission. Eager? Not likely! However, when he sees carrots being piled into the big spaceship, Bugs changes his mind and runs ahead to have some carrots. He is in for a surprise, especially when he lands on the moon...

I recommend this to anyone who likes Bugs Bunny, anyone who likes Marvin (and who would not mind his voice being different) and old WB cartoons. Enjoy "Haredevil Hare"! :-)
