So does anybody actually like bugs the most?

I know he's meant to be like the main character but I swear nobody actually likes him the most.

Pic related seems to be who everyone actually likes.

I used to hate Daffy Duck as a kid. Bugs was alright but Roadrunner was my favourite.

These days I'd say Daffy is ok though. So maybe he just appeals less to kids?
>>
I prefer Plucky.
>>
>>77661124
Weird, I couldn't stand Bugs as a kid. Daffy was funny and spastic, Bugs was just a droll asshole.
>>
Early sadistic Bugs is the best.
But he just doesn't work on his own.
>>
I guess everybody hated Bugs because he was a faggot and a Mary sue.
>>
>>77661112
I liked both equally. They had a similar duo charm along the lines of Martin and Lewis and Abbot and Costello. Difference is, both could stand on their own. Neither was really a Martin or a Lewis.
>>
Daffy is God-tier.
>>
>>77661177
Why does everybody have to hate one?

I don't think there's a Looney Toon I don't like. Hell, even that annoying as fuck red riding hood had dank tits.
>>

>>77661124
I never met a kid who actively hated Daffy.
>>
the thing that always bothered me about daffy is that he always seemed to act out of character whenever he was around bugs

like daffy would always act like a pompous dickhead if bugs was in the same cartoon, and he just came off as annoying

solo daffy cartoons are amazing though

donald a shit
>>
I figured I was in the minority of liking Daffy more than Bugs. Daffy's literally me.
>>
>>77661235
Donald in comics > Daffy in animation> Donald in animation
>>
I enjoy Bug's cartoons more than Daffy's, or at the very least can think of more that I've laughed at off the top of my head.

Robin Hood Daffy and Duck Amuck are fucking amazing though.
>>
>>77661112
Woah! Who is that character? He's literally me!
>>
>>77661112
Daffy cartoons were more consistently great, IMO. Bugs had many great ones too, but also plenty of boring ones.
>>
>>77661177
>mary sue

This trope doesn't really apply to slapstick, though.
>>
>>77661293
Bugs had more than 3x as many cartoons than Daffy, so that could be partly why its easier to remember his ones.
>>
>>77661320
It really does.
>>
>>77661326
Bugs featured in 155 cartoons, Daffy featured in 133 cartoons
>>
>>77661350
Yes, but the majority of the cartoons Bugs featured in, were specifically his cartoons. Daffy's featured in plenty of Bugs cartoons and Porky cartoons, too.
>>
>>77661235
Any duck/rabbit season episode was automatically based as fuck, though.
>>
>>77661342
It literally doesn't. Slapstick isn't about telling a gripping story. It's about making people laugh. If people are laughing, then it works, regardless of whether the character causing the laughter is well written.
>>
>>77661350
The key word here is "featured". Daffy played opposite Bugs in a shitload of those. Hell, Bugs was even in Duck Amuck.
>>
They are two very different characaters who were often put in very different themes. It's hard to compare them.

Bugs was often a little more witty. Which had the drawback of his episode being easier to fail. He was often the straight man in a crazy world, but was self aware of this.

Daffy is just the crazy man in a crazy world whose antics would often put him in trouble and then we'd see the fall back of him getting into trouble.
>>
>>77661427
>bugs
>straight man in a crazy world
>daffy
>crazy man in a crazy world

Great example.
It's clear that both bugs and daffy know that they're in cartoon show and therefore know that ridiculous shit is going to happen to them. The difference is that Bugs keeps a clear head and outsmarts the writers; knowing he's the main character probably doesn't hurt either. Daffy, knowing he's a bit of a fall guy anyway, consistently loses his shit.

this. fuck the idea that their personalities today are just based off the hunter trilogy
>>
>>77661405
And if slapstick worked just by two guys hitting each other without context, Looney Tunes wouldn't be special at all.

People laugh because the story provides context where it's funny. A mary sue beating up on characters isn't funny.
>>
>>77661817
Chuck Jones really is overrated.

He turned Tom and Jerry into the fucking Roadrunner cartoons (a series that was a parody of Tom and Jerry cartoons originally)

Daffy is probably the most 3 dimensional of the lot, not that being 3 dimensional matters much in Loony Toons, but still.

Same. Never liked that smug asshole Bugs when I was little. Loved me some Daffy though.

Not counting the Original Looney Tunes, this show automatically shits on anything Bugs Bunny has ever been in.

Try to prove me wrong.

When I was young I used to like Bugs more.

Now I am literally all Daffy

I like more Daffy that Bugs when he is totally crazy and bothers me when is a loser. I do not know why the extreme changed of personality.

Anyway, her classic crazy laughter is the perfect representation of the madness.

I'm really curious what your native language is.

Yeah, but the creators embraced that. On the other hand, Bugs has continued on as the face of Loony Tunes.

I never liked Bugs, he was always such a smug asshole who never got any comeuppance (except in that one cartoon with the tortoise).

Daffy a best.

That's kind of adorable.

It's a Han Solo situation, where you have a main star that has to abide by certain rules, and a rouge wildcard that just does what he wants. Everyone loves Han, but you need Luke, otherwise the whole setup doesn't make sense. You need Bugs so that Looney Tunes is not just over-the-top crazy assholes and wannabe rapists. Same thing happened with Mickey and Donald.

>>77661929
Holy shit all this pleb.
Everyone who gives half a shit about Looney Tunes should watch what this dude has to say:

Chuck Jones was a butthurt faggot who was jelly that Daffy was superior to Bugs in every way.
>>
>>77672031
No, Chuck was butthurt because Clampett's version of Bugs and Daffy were better than his.
>>
>>77671834
No hes right Chuck Jones is boring as fuck, theres maybe 10 - 15 of his short that can grip me. This man really was never meant to be an animation director, he shouldve just been an animator since he was one of the better draftsmen. When you let boring conservative directors like him and Freleng you get dozens of cartoons that are excatly the same. Clampett, McKimson, Davis, and hell even Tashlin were all much better directors than Jones
>>
>>77671834
Why do I have to watch this? I already know what I think of Chuck Jones from watching his cartoons. I'm not the same as the other guys, I like him, What's Opera Doc, etc., but I think Clampett's Daffy was better, and overall I like Clampett better.
