This was the last Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies compilation film made up of loads of already made cartoons, concocted into a story. Basically Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck are working for a book selling company. They split up to sell books in different areas, however Daffy wants to head south to migrate. Bugs meets Daffy after mistakingly being given to gorillas by the Stork and chased by Elmer Fudd, and they both end up in Arabia. Bugs finds a kingdom run by Yosemite Sam. He is told to read his 1001 stories for his prince, or face being boiled in oil. This is obviously an excuse to use many good episodes involving fairy tales, e.g. Jack and the Beanstalk, Hansel and Gretel, a Pied Piper story, and a Singing Frog. Daffy Duck was number 30, Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies number 20 and Bugs Bunny number 10 on The 100 Greatest Cartoons. Worth watching!

After the creative team that made the classic Looney Tunes cartoons stopped making original cartoons, they made compilations of varying quality (after they all died, the cartoons turned into total garbage). "Bugs Bunny's 3rd Movie: 1001 Rabbit Tales" has Bugs and Daffy as book salesmen who go their separate ways to try and sell books. Eventually, Bugs arrives in the Arabian desert, where Yosemite Sam is the sultan and has a spoiled brat son. So, Bugs agrees to read to the boy, under the threat of bathing in boiling oil if he fails.I guess that overall, this compilation is pretty harmless. If nothing else, they still had Mel Blanc doing the voices. But are compilations really that necessary?

Another one of the quick-fix movies by the Warner Bros. studio to make some fast money off the famed Looney Tunes characters. Old cartoons starring most all the major characters are held together by an unfunny new cartoon that has book salesman Bugs Bunny telling stories to Yosemite Sam's young brat of a son in a palace in the middle of the desert. Naturally there is also Daffy Duck trying to survive the harsh desert environment. It is tough to survive this harsh cut-and-paste mess. Watch the Cartoon Network instead. 2.5 out of 5 stars.
