To Duck or Not to Duck (Restored)

[Tacticalsniper32]

i think the referee was coming on to daffy

[Haurko01]

3:20-3:37 Looks like Elmer Fudd and Laramore both just got the John Cena at ECW Arena Threatment.

[emptysoul25]

4:49 Laramore is awesome.

or whatever his REAL name is...

[SegaMario]

1:49-1:57

Internet tough guys in a nutshell.

[thoof2001]

This particular cartoon is one of my all time favorites, particularly for Mel Blanc's bravura voice work. I know, he's always entertaining, but this one seems to be a particularly great performance, as Daffy, Larimore, and the referee, not to mention the crowd(!).

[xccaae]

Thank you so much Uploader.. for giving me my childhood back!!! :D

[Marbles471]

Early Jones at his best.

I've always loved this one's unexpected ending. It's hilarious how Elmer comes out on top at the very last minute. (apparently without even really realizing it.)

[Hulavuta]

2:16 Daffy the Nazgul

[schwei56]

OHHHHHHHHHH BROTHER!!

The scoring at 5:01-5:05 is one of Stalling’s sweetest gestures ever. I can also see this as a prequel to the immortal Bugs/Daffy/Elmer works from Jones in the ’50s.

[TeamRocket2010]

Elmer disliked this.

[SenhordoBonfim]

Really nice quality. Thank you for posting it. This is one of my all-time favorites. So many great moments including the music at the end of the fight (Captain Of the Clouds). Great stuff.

[hotplaye999]

everybody hate white man smh!

[DarkGreen2000]

4:16-4-22

4:54-5:00

I can see courage the cowardly dog was inspired by this cartoon lol.

[themizchris1]

hahhahah hdaffy duck im like 14 years old and damn its so funny XD

[TheUltimateCondom]

@themizchris1 im 17 man and i love this stuff :D age doesnt make a bit of difference

[themizchris1]

@TheUltimateCondom hell yea children for ever X)

[Haquize]

@TheUltimateCondom The LTs weren't really made for children in the first place.

[TheUltimateCondom]

@Haquize i know thats the point i was making to the 15 year old who thought he was weird because he watched these. as i said age makes no difference, all ages enjoy these. but your right, they were originally never intended for children

[D4ddyf4ts4ck244]

ducks can fly?

[mbson]

Duck Hunt!

[bflat86]

Yeaaaahhhh, mmmeaaahhhh, you don't like that do yaaa? Noooo,, nnaaaaahhh, meahhhh, hmmffff, you don't like it naaaaahhh, hmmmff, hhheeee, hooo, you don't like it!

[bflat86]

Man those old public domain cartoon vhs' had AWFUL picture quality. I remember this short was just a mess of faded red and brown on the video I used to have as a kid.

[realseoul]

"heelllo." rofl.

[capnbarfy]

lol @ 4:10  - Daffy family reunion.

[MrCocoaNinja]

Haven't seen this one in years. Troll face at 2:00

[Bonestonecrusher]

@GunsRike99 who dosent, i know i do :)

[zatchfan202]

4:10 oooooooh brother!

[ryudragon7]

Believe it or not, I didn't realize his name wasn't actually Larimore, it's Wawimore 1:15

[Fierball360]

his poor dog "hooray!' BAM SLAP POW

[anman90000]

1..3..9..10 your out lol

[ancilodon]

2:39- Fudd's ass. I'd forgotten how damn funny these cartoons are!

[DiscosDeFama]

Best fight intro ever !

[GotekDarkSamurai]

3:30 to 3:36 had me in tears laughing, you can't get better than these classics

[cobrien706]

Great restorations BUT! Someday I'd like to see the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies without the edges cut off. ALL movies from this time converted for TV have their edges cut off (yes, I'm talking about before widescreen.) With live action you don't notice because the action is focused in the center. But with animation they use every inch of the frame, so you notice it all the time. Feet get cut off, sight gags get screwed up, that sort of thing.

[hunniejairplanesj]

Daffy Duck say: hoo hoo hoo hoo! i find it funny!

0:49

[jimmyjamm93]

1 3  9 10 Your out!! LOL

[alphab1]

@jimmyjamm93 hahaha...CLASSIC! i've used that to ref some of my nephews when they box or wrestle and they stand there stunned and confused as to why i counted that way. they're too young to remember these cartoons!

[KillerKowalski7]

@jimmyjamm93

You mean you're, not your.

[1Webbman9]

Duck shot, woohooowhooo!!!

[zombiescarnage]

Someone should send this to Sarah Palin.

[xDXPxJOEx456x1]

i loved these cartoons when i was a kid and i still love them

[Adastra14]

humph! hamph! hrmph! hrumph!

[TheAssasin2525]

I never get tired of seeing these classic cartoons!!!

[OroborusFMA]

How is this "public domain" given the copyright at 0:05 ?

[checkeredgeek]

@OroborusFMA Because that copyright expired a long time ago.

[Marbles471]

@OroborusFMA

WB sold all of their pre-1948 cartoons to a television syndicator in 1956. Eventually, many decades later, access to the original negatives ended up back in WB's hands, but by then the copyrights had expired.

[DrHasslein]

The dog sounds like Ray Romano.

[1Webbman9]

@DrHasslein Everybody loves a Raymond

[cafecitojcv]

This is my absolute FAVORITE Daffy Duck cartoon!

[superbreadgirl05]

we need more of this heaven today...

[cwk12782]

Why do I keep imaging Elmer as Rocky and Daffy as Apollo?

[MrTESLA05]

Hilarious !!!!

[elyusai1]

Why are the ring's garters, pink?

[elyusai1]

How could the referee say: "absolutely...uh...uh..."? That's perfectly legal in boxing!

[YouAreNotGonnaLike]

1,3,9,10 Your out,the winner and new champion daffy duck!

LMAO Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo fucking funny man!!!! These are real cartoons!!! Not the shit that is around these days

[jeste4187]

@YouAreNotGonnaLike Hell yea, nothing can touch these cartoons. Bullshit that they have today is the product of people in focus groups, laboratories, and public experiments. Back then, so much simpler.

[TheTrueSaggitarius]

"Starts Laughing", What a dog, YOU CAN HAVE'EM!!!! XD

[MDthornton83]

Elmer Fudd gets his revenge!

[Burnarama]

4:25 - 4:45 thats my funniest part

[Rush718]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! HOORAAAAY! *throws garbage*

[MzTinaTechnicolor]

i used 2 watch this when i was little

[apocalypticaluvr]

i never understood why the referee had a laughing fit when he introduced elmer but it was always my fav part so i don't care lol.

[wisethirtyseven]

"Marquis of Queensberry rules...thats different eh...yeah thats somethin else again"...that whole tirade is classic.

[apocalypticaluvr]

referee: and in this corner, a duck who needs no introduction. that outstanding expolent of clean sportsmanship, that champion of champions, your friend and mine, our own, our beloved, Daffy good-to-his-mother Duck.

[killbilly69]

"What A Tramp"

[Emubirdproductions1]

will you do i wanna be a sailor please

[Joemamma69000]

If The Looney Tunes Show is anything like this, I'd watch it everyday for the rest of my life.

[skrapdiggy]

Poor Larrimore. LOL

[frostneedle]

I love that part where the referee had a laughing fit introducing Elmer, cracks me up every time hahahaah

[melbatunes]

Daffy Duck, one of the most underrated comedic talents of our era...or any era

[apocalypticaluvr]

@melbatunes the daffy and bugs cartoons were always my fav so i appreciated him but all my friends hated him which i always thought was a little mean *shrug* oh well...

[chosenone234]

i guess elmer went on a

"Duck Hunt"

[arandomperson3]

That would be hilarious if Daffy burst into an NRA meeting! XD

[Jackstar769]

and all kind of stuff like that there!

[MrVideogreg]

This cartoon is, w/o any doubt, is by far........

THE HIGHEST QUALITY I HAVE SEEN ON YOUTUBE OR ANYWHERE ELSE.

(I'm yelling because I don't believe anyone understands the miracle of this restoration- but if you do, give some credit)

Some others I have seen looks like it was recordedwith a telephoto lens of a VHS cam through a screen door. 'Nuff said.

[Marbles471]

@MrVideogreg

ROTFL! That's a great mental image.

And not an inaccurate description of bad film prints, either. XD

[DoomBeat]

2:00 "Problem, Daffy?" *trollface.disneyjpg*

[TheChicagoguy]

This is my all time favorite daffy duck cartoon

[kristosphere]

hahahah i used to have this on a vhs that i used to watch as a kid alll the time.

great quality! thanks for uploading!

[Bladepaw18]

@6:20 karma's a nasty old girl, ain't she? lol

[spartanrifle34]

3:57 this dude gay

[StFidjnr]

@ 4:02 BOO!! *crash*

[StFidjnr]

@ 3:33 one biased fan of Elmer Fudd.

[TheTebo1994]

@StFidjnr Hooray!! *crash*

[cwk12782]

Elmer Balboa vs Apollo Duck?

[Henryduckfan63]

I remember watching an INCREDIBLY poor quality copy of this when I was little,it's wonderful to see such a wonderful copy. 5/5

[KillaEfhjj]

*Ding* "1,3,9,10 the winner and new champion Daffy Duck" lmfao

[KillaEfhjj]

ud think the dog would just learn to stop sittin on the very top of the bleachers right?

[imprintstudios]

1,2,3,9,10 your out!

[mxyzptlk2010]

This is fantastic quality especially when compared to those public domain prints.

[9r2e5i3k]

wetwieve 'em, wetwieve 'em!

[jajaNEEHU]

LoL!! XD

[teencomment]

The ref and Daffy so deserved that at the end.

[chica476]

early Black Power sentiment

[Haurko01]

3:35 Looks like Laramore got the John Cena at the ECW Arena Treatment.

[t3amtomahawk]

1:30 See Laramore???

WTF?! Hahaha! I like crazy, off-the-wall Daffy best.

[SenhordoBonfim]

Thanks for posting this. Beautiful quality. The music at 6:06 I believe is the title track from the movie "Captain of the Clouds" with James Cagney (1942). It became the unofficial song of the Royal Canadian Air Force.

[hackensac]

In that corner...(snickers) oh shit (or at least I think he said that.) in that corner (chuckles) he's a dog! (laughs) You can have him!!! (Laughs) What a Tramp!!!!!! (Laughs Hysterically)!!!!!!

[ILoooooveCamels]

@hackensac no, he definitely didn't say that.

[spartanrifle34]

@hackensac dude at 3:07 it does sound like he said shit

[LopezMelendez]

And a very, very great, great restoration too, THIS one makes the OTHERS look BAD, I hope you get the most subscribers, because they could either buy or rent the collection, good example, this served me up as a breath mint and a breath of fresh air.

[AarHan3]

Daffy Duck's first encounter with Elmer Fudd. 8^B

[AarHan3]

Absolutely, uh-uh!

[PhillT1988]

Daffy good to his mother Duck

[SilverZeo88]

I love that "Can't do that" bit.

[RockMusicChannel25]

awesome!

[ACcountryFan]

in my opinion a hilarious cartoon with Daffy and Elmer...the boxing spoof is also hilarious with the referee and the rules of "none of this, none of that, like so, like this, etc etc."

"A gweat, gweat sportsman, heh heh heh".
