Robert McKimson, False Hare, USA 1964
Well, this is it. The last Bugs Bunny short.
The Big Bad Wolf, or Uncle Big Bad as he's called here, is hanging out his nephew and pitching him his latest idea; 'Club Del Conejo'. Basically they'll make up a fake club for rabbits and when they signup, BANG-rabbit stew!
Bugs happens by but yeah, he isn't fooled and proceeds to wreck Uncle Big Bad all throughout the picture.
Certainly not the worse short ever but there is a certain element of melancholy. The shorts department would continue on for a few more years but it would finally shutter in 1969. Bugs still had the Bugs Bunny Show but after this it would be a rerun program.
This wouldn't be the final word on Mr. Bunny but we'll get to that later.
