    Matching and mis-matching of Wagner to Warners. Elmer is the hunter as the demigod Siegried, Bugs in drag and blonde wig as the Valkyrie Brunhilde atop an obese horse.
Best Moment:
    The love song that Bugs and Elmer sing to each other (if it weren't so ludicrous, it would be a lovely song):
      Elmer: Return my wuv, A wonging burns deep inside me.
      Bugs: Retoin my love, I want you always beside me.
      Elmer: Wuv like ours must be
      Bugs: Made for you and for me
      Duet: Return, won't you return my love. All my love is yours!
