Every Time "Hooray for Hollywood" Was Used in Classic Looney Tunes

[@looneytunessongs-xr5fs]

Something interesting is that in A Star is Hatched and Porky's Five and Ten, they sing "Go on and try your luck/You might be Daffy Duck!". Of course, the original lyric is "Go out and try your luck/You might be Donald Duck!" but it's interesting since Daffy's only appeared three times up to those points and only named in one of them.

What's also interesting is that the line is "Donald Duck" and yet it was featured in the WB film _Hollywood Hotel._ I guess WB was fine with the mention of Donald in live-action, but in animation, it was a no-no to give recognition to the competition.

Every time “William Tell Overture” was used

Looks like Mel Blanc, at 2:04, was doing the Woody Woodpecker laugh long before Walter Lantz hired him!

[@fromthesidelines]

Ben Hardaway directed "Porky's Hare Hunt", and created that rabbit. When he became head of Lantz's story department in 1940, he and Walt created Woody.....based on that "screwy rabbit"......with essentially the same voice {Mel's}.

[@jasobres]

Mel actually used to do that laugh a lot when he was a boy, and used that laugh for "Happy Rabbit", the early version of Bugs, before using it for Woody Woodpecker.

One of the most prominent instances of cross-promotion with WB feature films, as Hollywood Hotel came out a year before A Star is Hatched and was a prominent song in that film. "Hooray For Hollywood" also happens to have the distinction of being the very first song played in the first Tiny Toons episode that aired (after the title card, I mean). Anyway, my favorite use is What's Up, Doc?.

Pertaining to the boxing fishes, there actually is a South American cichlid called a Jack Dempsey.

[@looneytunessongs-xr5fs]

The tune was cut out of the Blue Ribbon version of the cartoon which is the one we have available so I physically couldn't include it.
