TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . that the Leading Man of CONFEDERATE HONEY (and actual title character) from Warner Bros.' always prophetic Animated Shorts Seers division (aka, The Looney Tuners) is none other than Red Commie KGB U.S. Strong Man Vlad "The Mad Russian" Putin's Puppet, Don Juan Rump. Warner Bros. fully exploited its Extremely Early Warning Cartoonists to alert We Americans of the (Then) Far Future of our impending Calamities, Catastrophes, Cataclysms, and Apocalypti. With CONFEREATE HONEY, they open with Rump Surrogate alleged "Attorney General" Beauregard Sessions (formerly of the KKK) auctioning off the U.S. Bill of Rights. "Sold-out Americans!" he concludes his auctioneer patter. Warner follows up this with a montage giving a blow-by-blow account of the Deplorable 2016 Rigged-by-Russia election, featuring several cameos by KGB spy (slated to become American Third Lady) Melancholia Rump. However, once Putin's coup is complete, Melancholia rejects the pathetic Rump's plea for her to park her derriere at America's once-hallowed White House, stamping Rump's forehead "Revoked!" This is Warner's way of informing America that IF we were ever foolish enough to let someone like Stalin or Putin have his way with us, THEN that moldy anarchistic Racist Suicide Pact Parchment from the 1700s would HAVE TO BE REPEALED AND REPLACED at a Constitutional Convention, resulting in the assets forfeiture and deportation of ALL the enablers of the permanently-banned Putin's Party, along with the banning of the Job-Killing Corporate Mafia, in order to rid America of the interchangeable Three C's promoted by Lucifer: Conservatism, Communism, and Capitalism!

Tweekums This Elmer Fudd short is clearly spoofing 'Gone with the Wind' with Elmer playing Ned Cutler a gentleman who has caught the eye of Crimson O'Hairoil. One day he is about to ask her a question, she and the viewer, assumes he plans to propose. However war is declared so he departs to do his bit for his country while Crimson waits for him to return. We also see something of the life of people in the state including, controversial in this day and age, the depictions of black slaves picking cotton and one acting as a horse parking attendant.This short isn't banned but I'm not surprised that it is no longer shown on television due to the depiction of the slaves; one in particular is depicted as being very lazy... if it hand just been a lazy farm hand it would have been funny but the racial overtones of making the character a black slave are obvious. Not all the gags involving black characters seemed offensive to be though; the sight of one parking Ned's horse in the way one might park a car was quite funny. There are enough funny moments to make this worth watching; including the final moment when we learn what Ned wanted to ask Crimson; just remember that some scenes may cause offence.

Lee Eisenberg OK, so Friz Freleng's "Confederate Honey" contains stereotypical depictions of slaves. The people behind the cartoon didn't mean any hostility towards African-Americans; it was just that they didn't know any other images. This over-the-top parody of "Gone with the Wind" casts an early Elmer Fudd as opportunistic Red Cutler, trying to win the heart of southern belle Crimson O'Hairoil during the Civil War. Seeing the sort of gags that the cartoon contains, it surprises me that Tex Avery didn't direct it.It's worth noting that this is the early incarnation of the cartoon world's most famous hunter. He evolved from a character named Egghead, whose appearance changed over the course of about two years. In 1940, they permanently turned him into Elmer Fudd (the name had first come up in "A Feud There Was", with Egghead as a peacemaker named that), but he still looked like Egghead. "A Wild Hare" introduced not only Elmer's recognizable form, but also Bugs Bunny's recognizable form.Anyway, a really funny one.PS: The scene with "The British are coming!" appears to have been lifted from Chuck Jones's "Old Glory".

tedg Spoilers herein.Many of the cartoons from this era were built around making fun of specific popular items: books, movies and such. The whole idea was to show everything in the most ridiculous light.Some of these, like this one (and scores of others) tread on matters of race. Either they deal with WWII Asians, or Blacks of some ilk. They are all now in `collections of shame' in various institutions, and deemed unsuitable for viewing. Racist.In the States, racism is the big taboo, so these are considered too offensive to watch because of the role of blacks, their minstrel-like appearance and the resulting stereotypical behavior. Never mind that in many cases the non-Blacks are portrayed in much the same way - ostensibly because as oppressors a spoof of themselves cannot be oppressive.This particular instance makes fun of a film (then fresh) rather than society at large and is in a special category, which to my mind puts it on the acceptable side of that great dividing line. Its the film that's racist, this most popular film in history. Pointing that out humorously seems to me in the best tradition of the Waylons, and that's a good thing.Ted's Evaluation -- 2 of 3: Has some interesting elements.
