"Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century" (an obvious parody of Buck Rogers) is a 1953 Chuck Jones-directed Merrie Melodies short featuring Daffy Duck as the eponymous Duck Dodgers, a cocky, spectacularly inept space hero who, with the help of an Eager Young Space Cadet played by Porky Pig, battles Marvin the Martian for control of Planet X, only known location of "Illudium Phosdex," the shaving cream atom.Also an obvious send-up of the Cold War (whether or not it was intentional is unknown, but most modern viewers will interpret it as such), with Earth representing the United States and Mars ("the Red Planet") the Soviet Union. The escalation of their conflict is a perfect illustration of the doctrine of Mutually Assured Destruction.The popularity of this short led to a number of subsequent Duck Dodgers adventures, including a Duck Dodgers cartoon series fifty years later and a video game titled Duck Dodgers Starring Daffy Duck.This short made it on The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie. |

Tempting Fate: When Marvin is about to shoot Daffy while the latter has a Disintegration-Proof Vest underneath his uniform, Daffy taunts Marvin. Unfortunately for Daffy, his disintegration-proof vest turns out to be the only part of him that is entirely immune to Marvin's Disintegrator Ray. |

Claiming Via Flag: Duck Dodgers is sent to find Planet X, last location of the shaving cream atom. Upon finding it, he stakes claim with a flag on behalf of Earth. Soon afterwards, Marvin the Martian arrives and stakes claim for Mars. The resulting battle lasts the rest of the short. |

Rogues' Gallery Transplant: Before that cartoon, Marvin The Martian opposed Bugs Bunny. This cartoon first picks him against Daffy. And as this cartoon later became the inspiration for the Duck Dodgers-series, Marvin is nowadays most associated with that role. |

Hypercompetent Sidekick: Porky Pig, as the Eager Young Space Cadet, is smarter and a lot more capable than Dodgers. He deduces a quicker and more easily navigable route to Planet X, saves Dodgers when he gets disintegrated, and manages to cause some pain to Marvin. |

Not Big Enough for the Two of Us: Dodgers delivers this line to Marvin the Martian. After the two blow up the planet during their Escalating War, it becomes quite literal. |

Martians: Duck Dodgers' arch-enemy Marvin the Martian is one of the more famous examples this side of War of the Worlds. NASA even used a depiction of Marvin on the mission patch for one of its Mars rovers (Daffy-as-Dodgers was on the mission patch for the other rover of the pair). |

Trick Bullet: Dodgers fires an Ultimatum Dispatcher at Marvin, which shoots a bullet that stops in mid-air, opens and out pops a written ultimatum. Marvin responds with an Ultimatum Answerer, which fires a bullet that stops and shoots a bullet of its own. Dodgers fires his Ultimatum Dispatcher again, and this time the bullet's message reads "Ouch!" |
