And while every director put his own spin on Bugs Bunny, they all agreed on one thing: Bugs was never to be mean-spirited. According to Linda Jones Clough, the business parter and daughter of famed animator Chuck Jones, Bugs rocketed to fame because he was “character driven, rather than gag driven,” Jones Clough says. Unlike Disney’s Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, who came with their own set of physical characteristics but lacked any hint of personality, Bugs was defined by his wiseacre attitude and witty banter. The “Looney Tunes” and “Merrie Melodies” films came out of the Warner Brothers animation studios, where a team of artists, directors and voice actors collaborated on the classic cartoons.
