~ Hitler announcing his plan to personally pilot a plane to bomb Moscow. |
Adolf Hitler is the German leader of the Nazi army and an antagonist in Looney Tunes.
He was voiced by the late Mel Blanc, who also voiced Daffy Duck, Sylvester, Yosemite Sam, Marvin the Martian, Wile E. Coyote, Taz the Tasmanian Devil, Nasty Canasta, Elmer Fudd, Beaky Buzzard, Gossamer, and Rocky & Mugsy.
Biography[]
In contrast to Disney, who depicted Hitler as an unseen demonic evil, Looney Tunes generally depicted as an evil but fairly incompetent buffoon, akin to a used car salesman. He is shown as immensely egotistical and not as intelligent as he thinks.
In "Daffy the Commando", after Daffy hits him with a mallet, Hitler whines for the help of Nazi soldier, Schultz just as Von Vultur did earlier. In "Herr meets Hare", it is revealed that Hitler chews on carpets (similar is shown in Scrap Happy Daffy) and that the gold medals he awards Goering with are all cheap forgeries.
He is also shown as afraid of Stalin in both "Russian Rhapsody" and "Herr meets Hare", referencing Soviet Union army's advancing towards Berlin at that point.
Looney Tunes[]
Adolf Hitler has appeared in thirteen Looney Tunes cartoons and is occasionally the main antagonist of a few episodes he appears.
He occasionally appears in a caricature form and typically faces a few Looney Tunes characters, the most prominent one being Daffy Duck, who he addresses as "Non Aryan Duck" in "Scrap Happy Daffy".
Since Hitler died in 1945 in real life, it's likely that he died in the Looney Tunes universe as well, since he never appeared in Looney Tunes again.
