Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


.I have one and I still wonder about this, WHY WOULD BUGS BUNNY HIRE HIS ENEMIES ELMER FUDD AND YOSEMITE SAM AS TEACHERS AT ACME LOONIVERSITY!?! I mean those are his enemies and the worst part is that they carry guns and guns shouldn't be allowed in school in the first place. It would be like if Batman started a school and hired his very enemies to teach in it... at least the Scarecrow would be qualified for the job since his alter ego Professor Johnathan Crane was a College Professor before he started his life of crime as the Scarecrow.

  • The whole idea of the ACME University is that toons are more like collegues (actors and actresses if you will) who do what they do for the sole purpose of entertainment. How they achieve this is of course dependant on the Theory of Narrative Causality, with each of them playing their respective roles. That's their life, that's what they were made for, and behind it all they are more like Worthy Opponents rather than enemies.
  • So the Looney Tunes are actors turned teachers huh? Well Would the idea of Batman having a school where his enemies work as teachers still work though? Some of them carry guns like Elmer and Sam as well.
    • Okay, wow, that's not even comparing apples to oranges. Batman and Looney Toons are not nearly close enough for that comparison to work. You're comparing apples to, I don't know, basketballs.
  • The premise implies that all of the Looney Tunes characters are actually actors. It's just that Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam always play either a villain or a foil to Bugs Bunny, and neither seem to mind. Bugs hired them because they were the best actors to play villains and foils that he knew.
