Watership Down/Funny

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The Running Gag of Bluebell starting some ridiculous poem only to have Hazel finish it with a biting final rhyme.

Bluebell: "Oh, to be a slug! Among the dandelions so snug..."
Hazel: "And feel the blackbird's sudden tug."

  • Speedwell's Story from Tales of Watership Down is pretty much one long Funny Moment with its complete surreal nonsense.
  • The movie doesn't really have much humor in it, though Kehaar's "You stupid bunnies!" rant is a very notable exception.
    • Don't forget - "Who said that!?" "No-one, sir".
  • Bigwig's take on the prospect of mating:

"Lot's of little Bigwigs, Hazel! Think of that and tremble!"
