Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Despairing over his inability to catch Bugs Bunny in his own time, Elmer Fudd is suddenly thrust forward to the year 2000 AD, courtesy of God (making a rare movie appearance). After catching up with the latest news headlines ("Smellivision Replaces Television"), the ancient, wrinkled Elmer grabs his trusty Buck Rogers Lightning-Quick Rabbit Killer and finally manages to bag the equally elderly Bugs ("What's up, Pruneface?") As he lays dying, Bugs recalls the first time he and Elmer met as babies, then tearfully buries himself in his own grave...or does he? The closing gag is a blast!
