| Gorilla My Dreams | comment |
Gorilla My Dreams is a 1948 Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Robert McKimson.Bugs Bunny is, for some reason, adrift in the ocean in a barrel (similar to how "Bugs Bunny Nips the Nips" started). He happens to wash up on the island of "Bingzi-Bangzi", which has a large population of very anthropomorphic gorillas. A lovesick female gorilla finds Bugs and immediately adopts him as her baby. Bugs, who sympathizes with a crying woman, plays along. However, her husband "Gruesome" is not at all happy at adopting a rabbit, and tries to get Bugs away.Remade in 1959 as "Apes of Wrath". | |

The Cameo | |
| Gorilla My Dreams / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Tarzan comes swinging through the jungle, calling his classic call. Gruesome himself appears as a minor boss in the video game Bugs Bunny & Taz: Time Busters and a boss in ''''Looney Tunes Collector: Martian Revenge!''. Daffy Duck appears at the end of "Apes of Wrath", delivered by the stork to Bugs as his "new baby". | |

Jungles Sound Like Kookaburras | |
| Gorilla My Dreams / int_2f36acf1 | comment |
Jungles Sound Like Kookaburras: The trilling kookaburra noise, which of course in Real Life would not be heard in any jungle and definitely nowhere near where gorillas live, is heard as the cartoon fades out. | |

Vocal Dissonance | |
| Gorilla My Dreams / int_3a88a563 | comment |
Vocal Dissonance: This is a rare short in which Mel Blanc voices a female character, in this case Mrs. Gruesome. She essentially sounds like Mel doing a poor falsetto voice. Subverted in "Apes of Wrath" where the mother gorilla is voiced by June Foray. | |

Butt-Monkey: Bugs, unusually for him, in both shorts, due to being dragged into playing baby for a gorilla and her ferocious husband. Especially so in "Apes Of Wrath" where he is violently shanghied into such by the drunken stork, and later even Daffy gets a final punchline on him for once. | |

| Gorilla My Dreams / int_7eb73553 | comment |
Bullying a Dragon: In "Apes of Wrath" Bugs goes along with it just to annoy Elvis for his own amusement, especially since Elvis's wife won't hesitate to clobber him if he tries anything. Once the Stork finds and delivers their real baby however, Bugs realizes just how much trouble he's in. | |

Standard Snippet | |
| Gorilla My Dreams / int_a3f1531b | comment |
Standard Snippet: Hey, it's Warner Bros., what do you expect? They have to make use of their songbook. In the beginning, Bugs carelessly sings, "Down Where the Trade Winds Play" and "Someone's Rockin' My Dreamboat". During the chase sequence, Raymond Scott's "Dinner Music for a Pack of Hungry Cannibals" plays at a faster tempo. | |

Gentle Gorilla: In contrast to Gruesome and despite a sign claiming the island is inhabited by "ferocious apes", the other gorillas are considerably friendlier, particularly Gruesome's mate. | |

No-Sell: In “Apes of Wrath�, when Bugs tells his pursuer to not cross a rope bridge to the mountain he’s standing on, lest he cut the rope, the ape has none of it and simply pulls at the rope—dragging Bugs’ mountain along with it. Bugs is appropriately cowed. | |

Abusive Parents: Gruesome is one to Bugs, due to being a Child Hater. His first reaction to his wife bringing home a baby is to "take Junior for a walk", playing rough with him, and then when Bugs fights back, he goes into a murderous rage. | |

The Not Catch: Gruesome throws Bugs very high in the air, poses to catch him, then scoots out of the way at the last second as Bugs plummets to earth. Elvis in the remake tries the same thing when kicks Bugs high in the air. Only for Bugs to land on his head. | |

Child Hater: Gruesome can't stand babies, which is why he and his wife don't have children. Zig-Zagged in "Apes of Wrath". Here, Gruesome (renamed Elvis) WANTS to be a father but when the stork substitutes Bugs for the missing baby gorilla he was supposed to deliver, Elvis wants no part of it, and is only angered more when Bugs trolls him in response. | |
