Timeless animation legend
The first time Bugs said his legendary catchphrase, "What's up, doc?", audiences were
floored. Here was a rabbit with a
shotgun in his face, and his first instinct is to make a casual remark. People expected the rabbit to scream, or run away, or do
anything but that.
It's so ingrained in our popular culture that we forget how subversive it was when it was first used.
