I guess science-fiction lovers will enjoy this 7-minute cartoon from over 90 years especially. Daffy is in space and fights Marvin the Martian for control over Planet X. I like that Martian character and I was surprised to see he appeared actually in quite a few films. I do not have much memory of him I must admit. However, the fact that he appears in one of Warner Bros' most famous cartoons of all time certainly makes him fairly popular I guess. Still, I have to stay, in terms of the story and of the jokes I am a bit surprised that this cartoon is so popular and famous. I am not saying it's bad by any means. It's definitely a solid watch, but I just cannot really see what the hype is about. Jones, Maltese and Blanc did a fine job here, but so they did on an uncountable number of other cartoons. Nonetheless, I recommend it and it shows that Warner Bros was still making pretty good movies in the 1950s as well and does not have to hide behind Disney. Thumbs up.

This Daffy Duck spoof of Buck Rogers in the Twenty-fifth Century is fairly funny, especially once he has met up with Marvin the Martian."Duck Dodgers" has been given the task of finding Planet X, the only remaining source of Illudium Phosdex (the shaving cream atom). He sets off with his side kick, eager young space cadet Porky Pig, and eventually finds the planet which he claims for Earth, a few seconds later Marvin arrives claiming it for Mars and the two of them have a stand-off involving Acme Disintegration Guns, Ultimatum Guns and finally they each attack the other with explosives that leave little of the planet intact.I found this to be pretty funny, Daffy usually amuses me more than Bugs Bunny due to his general incompetence and Marvin the Martian is always funny.

This isn't a cartoon you will find in a fairy tale book. This is Duck Dodgers, also known as Daffy Duck, when he is not a hero. Cut the crap, Duck Dodgers, everyone knows your secret identity! Duck Dodgers and Porky the Pig are on the search of a shaving cream atom known as Illudium Phosdex. Unfortunately, while searching on Planet X, an alien wants to get it first! Will Duck Dodgers get the Illudium Phosdex before the alien? The answer is, well. The whole planet destroys leaving only a little floating ball in space while everyone stands on it holding each other on the shoulders, trying not to fall off. Wonder why's that when before the planet seemed to have gravity because they could simply walk on the Planet and run away.I think this is a parody of the Planet X Jason Martell discussed about. Planet X is a planet claimed by some people to be a planet in our solar system we haven't found yet. X, I think, being a variable. It symbolizes a missing planet name, I think.I recommend this cartoon for Human children.

When the earth's supplies of the shaving foam atom run low, the scientific community turns to Duck Dodgers, the space travelling adventurer, to seek out a new supply. Dodgers travels to the unexplored planet X, rich in the atom, to claim it for earth; however a Martian is also on the planet to claim it for Mars. A battle ensues.For many people this is Daffy's best cartoon; it certainly seems to have stuck in many peoples' childhood memories, mine included. The plot spoofs the Buck Rodgers series of the period reasonably well and sees Daffy going to planet X and battling Marvin with a variety of funny weapons. It starts a little slowly but gets better when Marvin appears. The gags may not be brilliant but they have a certain imagination and energy to them that make it all work pretty well.I much prefer Daffy in his `crazy duck' personae rather than his later work, which is probably why I only enjoyed this film rather than loved it. Here he seems quite restrained and it is only occasionally when his character shines through the character of Dodgers. Porky has little to do but is reasonably amusing in his minor role, but it is Marvin that gives the best support in his rather one-dimensional role.It will stick in my mind because it is such a good little spoof but it isn't as good as perhaps it has been remembered. On top of that, I didn't see any of the Daffy I really love and that was a problem for me.
