The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie, originally released under the title The Great American Chase, is a 1979 Looney Tunes film with a compilation of classic Warner Bros. cartoon shorts and newly animated bridging sequences, hosted by Bugs Bunny. The bridging sequences show Bugs at his home, which is cantilevered over a carrot-juice waterfall (modeled on Frank Lloyd Wright's "Fallingwater" house in Bear Run, Pennsylvania).

Early on, Bugs discusses the wild villains he had co-starred with in his cartoons, which is followed by a tongue-in-cheek sequence depicting the history of comedy and a scene in which Bugs discusses his "several fathers". The latter scene was written by Chuck Jones as a way to debunk fellow animation director Robert Clampett's claims throughout the 1970s that he alone created Bugs, and Clampett's name is notably missing from Bugs's list, as a result of the conflict between Jones and Clampett.

All of the shorts featured was directed by Chuck Jones.

The combination of classic animated footage along with new animation would become the template for the theatrically released Looney Tunes movies for this film up until Daffy Duck's Quackbusters released in 1988.

Synopsis

Bugs Bunny, while giving a tour of his home, talks about some of the famous rivalries, battles, and chases from the Looney Tunes shorts, which serves as introductions to footage from the classic short subjects. The final segment of the film consists of an extended chase sequence between Wile E. Coyote and The Road Runner.

The film starts with a showing of the 1958 award winning cartoon Knighty Knight Bugs before going into its opening credits. This is followed up by Bugs narrating how Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies immediately replaced baggy-pants comedy before introducing us to "a warm-hearted humble little Introvert called Yosemite Sam".

The premise of the framing animation was a general parody of the popular 1970s/1980s television series Fantasy Island, with Daffy and Speedy playing caricatures of that series' principal characters, Mr. Roarke and Tattoo (respectively). They even wear the white suits worn on that show by Mr. Roarke and Tattoo.

Dans une forêt en plein hiver, Daffy enlève tous les panneaux de chasse au canard et s'en sert comme bois de chauffe. Elmer croise Daffy avec une pancarte de la chasse au lapin : il suit une ligne jaune qui mène au terrier de Bugs. Ce dernier se voit menacé par Elmer mais le lapin prétend être un « lapin fricassé », interdit à chasser sans permis. Daffy écrit une permission pour Elmer, mais Bugs lui fait écrire « saison du canard ». À chaque expression utilisant des animaux, Bugs sort un panneau indiquant la saison de la chasse de cet animal et Daffy se fait tirer dessus. Ce stratagème se répète trois fois. Le canard décide d'avoir un briefing avec Elmer : le chasseur tire sur un lapin en neige et rencontre Bugs déguisé en ange. Daffy, incrédule, se fait tirer dessus à deux reprises lorsque Bugs se déguise en canard (le bec de Daffy est plusieurs fois retourné ou démantibulé). Bugs, déguisé en garde forestier, finit par affirmer que c'est la saison du baseball et laisse Elmer tirer dans une balle de baseball qu'il lui a lancé. À la suite d'une question de Bugs Bunny, Daffy finit par révéler la véritable saison de chasse, et se fait alors instantanément massacrer par un groupe de chasseurs.

Satan, the Head Devil, loses his left horn, which is found by an elderly man in Britain (there are clues to the cartoon's location; the bin says "Keep Britain Tidy" and Rule Britannia is heard twice) who uses it as a hearing trumpet. Soon the man experiences a series of aural and visual hallucinations: A bug sounds like a locomotive; a butterfly causes him to see strange patterns; a short man in a pink suit makes mischief, at one point pulling a telephone from the horn and turning the phone's mouthpiece into a shower outlet. These hallucinations become steadily more strange and frightening before finally culminating in a "GIGANTIC EXPLOSION!" Having suffered enough, the gentleman leaves the horn behind in favor of his original hearing trumpet, which he had thrown out at the cartoon's beginning. After he leaves, Satan materializes and is glad to find his missing horn; he screws it back on and disappears. The cartoon ends with the moral: "The other fellow's trumpet always looks greener".

Nous découvrons Bugs en super héros. Il est super-rapide, super puissant et fait des sauts super haut. Le narrateur nous raconte comment Bugs est devenu Super-Lapin : un savant dans son laboratoire avait créé des super carottes donnant des super pouvoirs et décidait de les tester sur Bugs. Ce dernier, en regardant un article parlant d'un texan haineux envers les lapins (Smith la terreur), voulut lui donner une correction.

The cartoon starts with a brief narration describing a labor shortage that "became so bad" that compels employers to hire "anybody or anything". Daffy is a hotel bellboy and Elmer Fudd is the manager. Elmer tells Daffy to take a customer to room 666. The customer (voiced by Arthur Q. Bryan, in his natural voice), asks for peace and quiet, and suddenly threatens to punch Elmer in the nose if disturbed at any time.

Coyote laisse un téléphone au trou de son voisin, Bugs Bunny. Il appelle de sa caverne, demandant d'emprunter une tasse de carottes en entier. Les moustaches de Bugs se contractent alors qu'il regarde sarcastiquement la boîte aux lettres du Coyote (" Coyote - Genius"), et réalise ce qu'il affronte. Il se moque alors de lui: «Es-tu là, génie?
