Barney Frank In Salary Negotiations For Elmer Fudd Role
The Daily Rash ^ | 11/28/2011 | Mark Donahue

Posted on 11/30/2011 1:33:54 PM PST by mojito

DreamWorks Studios announced today that they are in the final stages of salary negotiations with Massachusetts Congressman Barney Frank for their new Looney Tunes Bugs Bunny movie. Frank is slated to play Elmer Fudd in the five hundred million dollar, two part, six hour movie epic. The Congressman expressed interest in the role when he heard that Bugs Bunny was going to be played by an actor who has expressed conservative political views in the past. We talked with Congressman Frank over brunch in the West Village where he was visiting a friend.

“It was wight before our summer wecess,” he recalled, “and Hawwy Weid took me aside and infowmed me that the character of Bugs Bunny was going to be played by a wacially insensitive wight wing wepublican!”

The Daily Rash attempted to contact Steven Spielberg of Dream Works, but our emails and phone calls were not returned. Several people that we asked, that are affiliated with the project, are mum on the identity of the so-called “politically conservative actor.”

“It’s a bit pwemature at this point to say that I have the woll wapped up,” the Congressman said, as he voraciously gnawed at a double-decker roast beef sandwich with a side of ham, bacon and sausage fritters and a stack of blueberry pancakes. “Although, I have been in negotiations for quite some time.”

Elmer Fudd has more intelligence and class than Mr. Frank.

I don’t think Barney has the slightest idea what to do with a gun.

Now we know why Elmer Fudd never refers to his wife in any of the cartoons.

I like Elmer Fudd.

I loathe Bawney.

Even as sarcasm, the mere thought of that “thing” being anywhere close to my beloved childhood cartoons is...”hurl-a-riffic”.

Well, they’d have to rewrite “What’s Opera, Doc?” so that Elmer could play the Brunnhilde role...

Mel Blanc would be spinning in his grave. I grew up on Looney Tunes...to have him feature in any way in a movie would be the ultimate sacriledge.

>>>Elmer Fudd is not a homosexual either.

Elmer & Bugs both cross-dress in any number of Warner Cartoons...
