JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . Daffy Duck exclaims at the close of THE WISE QUACKING DUCK to Hitler look-alike "Mr. Meek," who's just attacked Daffy with a hatchet, shot off all his feathers with a long gun, and shoved the denuded carcass into an oven. QUACKING came out in 1943, by which time the many Jews in Hollywood had heard about Hitler's "Final Solution" Death Camps through the international grapevine. Since the American Rich People's Party (ARPP) held enough Congressional seats to block any Humanitarian Response to their philosophical soul mates, the Nazis, by the United States, ships full of Jews were being sent back to the ovens from the "safe havens" of U.S. ports with less Public Outcry than that arising from ONE Black Lives Matter death Today. The frenetic action of QUACKING, which finds Daffy frequently kissing Mr. Meek and literally morphing into a female human stripper at one point, reflects the Looney Tuners inability to fathom dozens of Unconstitutional ARRP "Red States" politically dominated by Hitler's American enablers, such as Michiganders Henry Ford, Charles Lindbergh, and "Adolph's Radio Priest" (the Rush Limbaugh of his day), Father Charles Edward Coughlin. Combined with the gas additives exported from Texas to Germany by Prescott Bush, much of the Third Reich Madness originated here in America, QUACKING informs us.

Mightyzebra This Daffy Duck episode stars the crazy (and luckily not very greedy) Daffy and a weedy, pathetic (pathetic at first and then a bit less later) man who is trying to hunt him, because his wife forced him to (luckily she does not appear in any part of the episode). The hunter is searching for a duck and he quickly comes across Daffy eating seeds. Daffy is not to be easily killed however...I enjoyed this episode because Daffy, who is very unconventional and off-the-wall here (entertainingly so), is so good and because of the animation, the plot-line and the man who tries to hunt Daffy. The humour is also very good, fun and wacky. It is a bit odd for Looney Tunes humour, but will appeal to a great deal of viewers. A good deal of the jokes are old fashioned as well (like the kissing one, which I like for some reason, which ccthemovieman pointed out), stuff that would not be made today, for anyone's viewing, which is another highlight to the cartoon.I recommend this to people who enjoy old Looney Tunes and to people who like Daffy Duck, especially when he's CRAZY. Enjoy "The Wise Quacking Duck"! :-)

Lee Eisenberg Once again, a dimwit unsuccessfully tries to do away with Daffy Duck. In this case, soft-spoken Mr. Meek has to cook a duck for dinner or his wife will cook his goose (heh, heh). Some of the gags here have appeared in so many cartoons that I easily predicted them (namely the one about lumps). But the highlight here is Daffy's striptease; it reminded me of what Jane Fonda did at the beginning of "Barbarella". If we in the 21st century find that scene wacky, just imagine how it must have looked to moviegoers in 1943! Anyway, this is a true display of Daffy's talent back when his first name actually described his personality (it was after WWII when he became a sociopath under Chuck Jones's direction). OK, so we could also be cynical and say that Bob Clampett gave Daffy a too vulnerable rival, and so Daffy didn't have to do all that he could. Well, I still say that "The Wise Quacking Duck" is a really funny cartoon. And I don't think that any live-action actor would have dared do that striptease.

Chip_douglas The opening shot in this Clampett cartoon is a beautiful panoramic reveal that gives a real dept to the surroundings. It introduces us to the Meek farm where the man of the house has been ordered by his wife Sweety Puss to kill a duck for din-dins (or she'll cook his goose, if you know what I mean). In a scene that seems a bit drawn out (no pun) by today's standards, Meek creeps up on Daffy while his animators take great care animating his shadow. Then they discards it like Peter Pan's once it has served it's purpose (very convenient). How's this for useless trivia: this timid character shares the same voice and wife as the Love Bird from Sylvester's debut 'Life with Feathers' (1945). He does however get to utter that one line that elevates any film to instant greatness: "Wat have I done?" (two conditions: it has to be said earnestly, and variations that are not in the first person don't count). Daffy shows us how to do a gruesome headless duck routine with the help of a ketchup bottle and a built in turtle neck sweater. Then he takes the fight into the Meek household giving this poor guy the pie, some tongue, the Daffy drawn on the wall bit and finally the big bang boom razzmatazz routine (it was wartime after all). At first we think Meek and his Puss must be quite well off, judging by the size of their furniture. The oven, where a lot of the gags take place, is especially monstrous. But when you realize Mr. Meek is really not much taller than the average duck, it becomes less impressive. Daffy sure had a habit of repeating himself in the early days (he even mentions it himself). In this one he sneaks in the old gag about reading the bumps on your head twice. At that point the meek can't stands no more and goes all Popeye on him. Daffy's last stand involves an uncomfortably long strip-tease. (I am not sure if this was what the G. I.'s were hoping for). Meek sure enough falls for it, but then of course we're glad never to find out what his 'Sweety Puss' looks like.5 out of 10
