The Misadventures of Merlin Jones The Misadventures of Merlin Jones is a 1964 Walt Disney production starring Tommy Kirk and Annette Funicello. Kirk plays a college student who experiments with mind-reading and hypnotism, leading to run-ins with a local judge. Funicello plays his girlfriend (and sings the film's title song written by brothers Robert and Richard Sherman).
Rabbit Seasoning Rabbit Seasoning is a 1952 "Merrie Melodies" cartoon, directed by Chuck Jones, and starring Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck. It is the sequel to "Rabbit Fire", and the second entry in the "Hunting trilogy" directed by Jones and written by Michael Maltese. (The only major difference in format between them is that "Rabbit Seasoning" takes place during the spring, while "Rabbit Fire" takes place in autumn. The third cartoon, "Duck! Rabbit, Duck!", takes place in the winter.) Produced by Edward Selzer for Warner Bros. Cartoons, Inc., the short was released to theaters on September 20, 1952 by Warner Bros. Pictures and is widely considered among Jones' best and most important films. In Jerry Beck's 1994 book "The 50 Greatest Cartoons", "Rabbit Seasoning" is listed at number thirty.
