In this Looney Tunes review, we dive into the 1949 cartoon 'Daffy Duck Hunt,' directed by Robin McKimson. Joined by my friend Manny Cruz, we explore the humour and trivia of this classic short, which features an iconic duo, Porky Pig and Daffy Duck. We discuss its potential connections to 'Porky's Duck Hunt,' its animation gags like the 'Do Not Open Until Xmas' bit, and the quirky world of Looney Tunes with 31 days in April. We also highlight Mel Blanc's vocal talents as he brings the characters to life, and the music of the era, such as the Latin melodies from Gold Diggers in Paris and the German 'Silent Night.' 00:00 Welcome to the Looney Tunes Review 00:37 Introduction to Daffy Duck Hunt 01:02 Plot Summary and Trivia 02:02 Comparisons and Gags 04:40 Character Voices and Animation 11:07 Musical Highlights 16:45 Final Thoughts and Ratings 17:34 Closing Remarks
