| Russian Rhapsody | comment |
"Russian Rhapsody" is a Looney Tunes Wartime Cartoon directed by Bob Clampett, released May 20th, 1944.When the German Luftwaffe faces difficulties in reaching Russia, and reports of Gremlins being responsible start popping up, Adolf Hitler takes it upon himself to bomb Moscow. While enroute, his plane is steadily beset by and slowly disassembled by a group of Russian "Gremlins from the Kremlin" (mostly caricatures of the animators), singing a merry tune while at work. When the Fuhrer finally discovers them, the Gremlins outwit him and succeed in bringing down both him and the plane. | |

Bizarre Alien Biology | |
| Russian Rhapsody / int_1161fb48 | comment |
Bizarre Alien Biology: Unusual resemblances to Warner Bros. cartoon artists aside, many of them possess weird anatomy and abilities, such as having saws or screws for noses (which helps them immensely in sabotaging the plane), being able to duplicate into smaller versions of themselves by walking into propeller blades, and even got onto the plane to begin with by walking in thin air from the clouds. | |

No Celebrities Were Harmed | |
| Russian Rhapsody / int_1282bf4f | comment |
No Celebrities Were Harmed: The gremlins are caricatures of the animators' staff at Warners: Chuck Jones (the dopey, fat blond onenote though most viewers have claimed that the small blond one with big eyes is supposed to be Chuck Jones. The DVD commentary done by Mark Kausler revealed that the dopey, fat blond one trying to hammer the Friz Freleng gremlin's head in is, in fact, Chuck), Bob Clampett (the skinny, pink naked one with the long nose and the pompadour), Friz Freleng (the balding, green one with orange freckles), Melvin Millar (the fat one with the tack on his head who keeps trying to jump to stick Hitler in the butt), Michael Sasanoff (the one with the box of "Termiteskis"), Tedd Pierce (the one with the Gag Nose who pops between a fat gremlin's legs, making him look like he has a Raging Stiffie), Leon Schlesinger (the chubby-faced one in the blue suit hammering the screw heads off and hitting Ray Katz with his hammer), Henry Binder (the buck-toothed yellow one with the V-shaped hair chewing on parts of the plane, and later seen sleeping and nearly getting his hair sawed off), and Ray Katz (the one with the big eyes getting hit with Schlesinger's hammer). Binder, Freleng, and Katz are also namedropped during Hitler's rant in the beginning. | |

Failed a Spot Check | |
| Russian Rhapsody / int_21e5b9c7 | comment |
Failed a Spot Check: Hitler repeatedly fails to notice the Gremlins' sabotaging of his plane in-flight, whether they are loudly tearing apart the interior behind him in the bomber bay, swapping a logo in the front windscreen, to even hiding in his hair. It took one Gremlin poking his rear end with a nail to finally make him realise the gremlins were onboard. | |

Standard Snippet: When Hitler is speeching "Oh du Lieber Augustin" plays in the background, a melody often used whenever Germans are depicted in old cartoons. The song "We Are Gremlins From The Kremlin" is sung to the tunes of the Russian songs "Ochi Chyornye" ("Dark Eyes") and "Eh, Uchnem" ("Song of the Volga Boatmen"), the most typical tunes used to evoke a Russian atmosphere. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Russian Rhapsody / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: One of the gibberish things Hitler rants about during his speech is "Chattanooga Choo-Choo", which was a popular song at the time. The gremlin who says: "I'm only three and a half years old!" is a reference to the character Martha (played by Billy Gray) on Abbott and Costello's radio show. The line "How do you do?" references Bert Gordon's radio character "The Mad Russian". When Hitler's plane has crashed, he pops up looking completely goofy and says: "Nazis is the craziest peoples!" This is a reference to then popular comedian Lew Lehr, whose had a film series where he talked over footage of animals in the zoo and when monkeys came in view he would say: "Monkey's is the cwaziest peoples!". The ending of this cartoon was referenced in the South Park episode Osama Bin Laden Has Farty Pants, where Bin Laden is also defeated and puts on a goofy expression, while saying: "Terrorists are the craziest peoples!" In Looney Tunes: Back in Action a gremlin from this cartoon is shown hanging in a picture on the restaurant wall. | |
