the Droopy and Dripple shorts and "Mystery Lady" in Calaboose Cal. As in the original MGM cartoons, Red plays the "damsel in distress" while the Wolf (here known as "McWolf") and Droopy compete for her affections. Red appeared in the Tom and Jerry direct-to-video movies like Tom and Jerry Meet Sherlock Holmes, Tom and Jerry: Robin Hood and His Merry Mouse, and Tom and Jerry's Giant Adventure (voiced by Grey DeLisle), where she was a primary character to the films' plots; the Wolf also made a few appearances, even becoming her groom in Meet Sherlock Holmes. The chase sequence through a Toontown hi-rise in the 1988 film Who Framed Roger Rabbit is heavily inspired by the Wolf/Grandma chase sequence in Red Hot Riding Hood, including several gags (ex: the door that opens to the outside of the building) directly lifted from the short. The Wolf from the short was planned to have a cameo in the film, but was later dropped for unknown reasons. Red made a cameo appearance in the 1998 Warner Bros. animated film, Quest for Camelot, where she appeared briefly during the third verse of "If I Didn't Have You" with Cornwall, before she turned into Devon's head. The Coco Bongo scene in the 1994 film The Mask, was based on the cartoon, with the Mask, completely acting and sometimes looking like the wolf. The Mask was banging himself in the head with a mallet, and ends up dancing with Tina. Stanley Ipkiss also has a tape of this cartoon and watches it in his room.
