Scheherazade: [performing the film's title song] Give me a modern man who knows how it has to be / Not some old miser who's guarding my chastity / Treating his woman as though she were some kind of chattel / It's unnatural / Give me a born true fighter who'll willingly tilt for me / Not some poor flower who'll suddenly wilt when he's hard / Pressed, right in the thick of the battle / Oh for a knight for my nights! / Oh for a knight for my nights! /

Rabbit Hood (1949)

Actors: Mel Blanc (actor), Mel Blanc (actor), Mel Blanc (actor), Errol Flynn (actor), Edward Selzer (producer), Michael Maltese (writer), Carl W. Stalling (composer), Chuck Jones (director), Treg Brown (editor),

Plot: While unwittingly trespassing in the royal gardens in search of carrots, Bugs runs afoul of the Sheriff of Nottingham, who tries to apprehend him for poaching. The royal grounds are, in fact, amply posted with "No Poaching" signs (one reads "Not even an egg"), but Bugs either didn't see or ignored them. Of course, Bugs sets out to endlessly turn the tables on the hapless sheriff, at one point talking him into building a six-room Tudor home in the middle of the King's gardens. The dueling pair are periodically interrupted by a fat, dopey Little John who proclaims, each time he appears, "Don't you worry never fear, Robin Hood will soon be here". In the end, the merriest of merry men does appear and it's...it's...oh, see it yourself. Bugs goes in disguise as the King, who then knights the Sheriff ("Arise, Sir Loin of Beef...").

The very air abounds in kings.

You're standing on royal ground!::Bugs Bunny: Royal ground? You mean to say that this ground is better than that ground over there?::Sheriff of Nottingham: Yes, it is.::Bugs Bunny: Oh, I don't know.

Well, where is he?::Little John: Aw, you should not talk mean like that, because there he is!::Robin Hood: [Appears in live-action footage] Welcome to Sherwood.::Bugs Bunny: [Bugs stares in astonishment for a moment] Nah, that's silly.
