. . . that just because you fall in love with something doesn't make it RIGHT! For instance, Elmer Fudd as the title character here notices that a bulldog is harassing a cat, so he pumps a Love Connection Arrow into the canine's butt. The mutt immediately adopts the accents of Pepe LePew when that skunk is wooing Penelope. However, Rover's feline victim is NOT amused, as she's shown well on her way to shooting herself in the head the nine times necessary to commit cat suicide once and for all. The rest of Elmer\Puck's Forced Matings are equally tragic misfires. Notice that Warner did not title this lesson as BRILLIANT CUPID, or even SILLY CUPID. The Looney Tuners went out on a limb to make an editorial judgment here: Elmer's insistence on trying to pound square pegs into round holes makes him a STUPID CUPID! Warner is preparing America for a day when that DSM Cookbook at Psychology Today is taken over by the Man-Boy Love Connection (an actual group numbering many shrinks among its members). On that day, Americans will realize that they've been totally bamboozled to "grow" toward tolerating, accepting, and abetting a moving target of "inclusion" which finds them dipping a toe into the Lowest Circle of Hell by the 21st Century. Like frogs in a pot brought to a slow boil, we failed to jump out as the water warmed until our goose was cooked! Just don't say that we weren't warned here by Warner's STUPID CUPID.

I really enjoyed The Stupid Cupid. Admittedly it is a little on the bizarre side, but it is quite funny as well. The cartoon does start off a little slow, but there is a lot that more than makes up for it. The story is simple but fairly effective. The animation is very nice, with lovely colours and good character features. The music is my favourite asset though, it was put to perfect use and quite pleasant and quirky to listen to. The dialogue particularly that of Daffy's is funny, while there are some interesting sight gags such as the cat shooting herself and we see her shooting each of her nine lives and Daffy falling in love with a chicken. Elmer's facial expressions were pretty funny too. Elmer is still dim-witted and clueless, and while he looks and sounds different(being voiced by Mel Blanc rather than Arthur Q. Bryan) he is a good foil, while Daffy is lots of fun as always.Overall, an enjoyable cartoon, not perfect but worth watching. 9/10 Bethany Cox

I really enjoyed this Daffy Duck and Elmer cartoon (with Elmer as Cupid in a nappy). It has cheerful animation, good music, interesting themes and entertaining storyline and I love the references to "The Henpecked Duck", a cartoon which had been made 3 years before this and is one of my personal favourites. This cartoon is also one of my favourites, but I would like it much more if it did not have its mainly boring, silly, slapsticky beginning which is only worth watching for people who do not know about Cupid and need to understand what Cupid does (but not why, that is never explained...).Anyhow, in this cartoon, Elmer, as Cupid, is just about to randomly shoot Daffy Duck when the little black duck spots him and complains about the last time he was shot, how he fell in love with a horrible wife (like in "The Henpecked Duck") and had too many children for him to cope with. However, later, Cupid re-shoots him anyway. Daffy falls in love with a chicken, of all people, who is already in love... Crazy capers commence...I recommend this cartoon to people who like fun, old Looney Tunes and who like a romantic, maniac and crazy Daffy Duck. Enjoy "Stupid Cupid"! :-)

"The Stupid Cupid" is an excellent Daffy Duck/Elmer Fudd cartoon directed by Frank Tashlin. Elmer plays the Stupid Cupid, complete with diapers and a tiny derby, shooting love arrows at various animals while having a devilish smile on his face! Daffy becomes one of his helpless victims.Highlights from this cartoon include the following (but don't read any further until after you have actually seen it for yourself). Elmer opens the cartoon by running & skipping all over the countryside and interrupting the "Voices of Spring" musical accompaniment with a few laughs. When he shoots a horse in the rear with an arrow, the horse goes absolutely bonkers after smooching a mare! Daffy goes through some of the strangest bodily contortions when he warns the mischievous Elmer to back off. Elmer shoots a gigantic arrow at Daffy, causing him to crash through numerous barns, a fence, a silo, and a tree; Daffy then amorously rushes over to a hen while his heart pounds to a Latin percussion rhythm. In order to make peace with the hen's jealous husband (a muscular rooster), Daffy proves he's a family man himself by rushing out of a barn, driving by the barn with his wife & assorted kiddies stuffed in the car, and rushing back into the barn, all within the limited space of a few seconds! And finally, we have a terrific visual AND audio effect when Daffy gets shot in the rear by Elmer after making peace with the rooster."The Stupid Cupid" is a brilliant cartoon! Director Frank Tashlin stops at NOTHING in order to induce loud laughter from the wildest sight gags. Never mind any crude animation or the rather abrupt ending; "The Stupid Cupid" is quite a gem in the Warner Bros. library of cartoons.
