Daily reminder that, canonically, the Looney Tunes characters are actors in-universe. This is consistently shown throughout the franchise, like in the short "You Ought to Be in Pictures" or the time Elmer Fudd literally tears up his contract with Warner Bros. because he’s tired of always losing. The same idea carries over into Looney Tunes: Back in Action, which also presents the characters as actors playing roles. So when characters like Bugs Bunny or Elmer Fudd appear to take control of a cartoon, it’s likely with permission from the original director, they're stepping into a behind-the-scenes role. Take Duck Amuck, it starts with a medieval setting, which was probably the cartoon’s original plot. But Bugs changes it, just to fuck with Daffy. That’s why Daffy is so confused. Of course, feats like Bugs Bunny surviving the moon exploding are still valid, since it’s established that Looney Tunes characters perform their own stunts. However, "meta" feats, like Bugs cutting the film strip, don’t really count as reality-warping. That’s not Bugs cutting reality itself; it's just him editing the ending of the cartoon he didn't like.
