CARTOON EVOLUTION #25 - LOLA BUNNY
I take a look at the history and evolution of Lola Bunny, the fierce and feisty Tune with a strong will, and a no-nonsense attitude! First appearing in 1996’s Space Jam, Lola is, currently, the newest character to be introduced to the core cast of Looney Tunes characters, having become a fan favourite almost immediately. Originally depicted as a sexy and seductive femme fatale, Lola’s appearance and personality have undergone major changes over the years
I discuss how Lola has evolved over time, alongside other Looney characters such as Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, and the Space Jam franchise! I also spotlight how animators changed her look, appearance and personality over time. Here's my look at Lola Bunny (and her predecessor, Honey Bunny) through the years!

While I really love her in the Looney Tunes Show, I think Rabbit Run is a nice balance between her personality in the LTS and Space Jam. She's a little airheaded but independent and really desired to make a name for herself.

The Lunatics world takes place in a distant future (2772). Even if Lexi and Ace ARE Bugs & Lola's descendants, they'd be too far off to even be related at this point.

I always loved how she evolved from “sexy girl bunny” to “quirky, wacky, funny girl bunny”.

I've actually liked the Lola incarnation from Space Jam. She's a girl, but she's the kind who isn't a stereotypical "Dumb Blond" or the kind who just follows guys around like a puppy. She's a strong, independent character who's great at sports, but still has a good heart and love for her friends. I've actually read that Lola's gonna appear in the upcoming Tiny Toons Looneversity series, where "Babs Bunny will met her mentor, Lola Bunny". If that happens, then to satisfy both old and new fans of Lola Bunny, I think Lola's personality should be a mix of the two from Space Jam and Rabbit Run. Funny like Babs Bunny, but intelligent, fierce and tomboyish like Lola's Space Jam counterpart. OH! And can we get Kath Soucie to reprise the voice of Lola, please? ^^ EDIT: Accidentally spelled Kath Soucie's name wrong. My bad!

@benmalsky9834 3 года назад

Ehhhh... I get what you're getting at, but Roger Rabbit's plot did kind of hinge on Jessica being sex object-y. He was framed by Judge Doom who planned this massive conspiracy around making it look like Jessica was playing Pattycake with Marvin Acme, in order to give Roger a motive to kill him. Not that Jessica wasn't a tough character who stood by her convictions and would do anything to save her Honey Bunny, she was designed more to be a Torch Singer stereotype. She's not bad, she's just drawn that way. Seriously, how great is Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Little Mermaid nothing, THAT was the sign of the Disney Renaissance.

Yes the people who create it could do it as representation but also to grab attention and use her as fan service for creeps. I do appreciate that they made her fierce, bad-ass and doesn’t take crap from no one, i don’t see that a lot with animated female characters.

@lyokian 3 года назад

Think what Lola needs is balance; subtle female features no matter if she's in modest clothing or a crop top and shorts, a personality that allows her to be both a confident or, in my way of thinking, the 'straight bunny' of the Looney Tunes bunch but in her own adventures or even with Bugs can let out a wackier side.

This, unfortunately with them having Melissa duck in the picture more prominently, it seems they basically store her sensible side and gave it to her. It would now look redundant unless Melissa is a one off for just the looney tunes show.

Also, in one article, she was labelled as Bugs' ex wife. Why? Dunno, I wasn't born in the thirties. But my theory on Lola's history, is that she's a modernized version of Honey Bunny.

Also what's funny, is that in the original Space Jam movie, Bugs clearly had a lust for Lola as soon as they met in Basketball training. And after he saved her from being crushed, she started to love him, giving him a kiss. And at the end, they formed a romantic relationship. Whereas in Space Jam A New Legacy, it's like Bugs and Lola are just friends. And that's all they ever were. Despite the fact that this was a sequel to the first one. (Not that I'm really angry about it, it was just a little disappointing.)

To me, The Looney Toons show was the one that sold me on Lola. It was the first time I saw her as a character and not a "Strong woman" which basically translates to one dimensional boring stereotype.

You can make a character sexy if you want, I don't mind, I mean there are 'hot' people in real life (or atleast I've heard thats true) Just don't have others ogling them the whole time like its a character trait. Except Jessica Rabbit, she subverts it with her actions. Even teaching viewers you can have all the looks, but if you don't find someone that makes you happy then it doesn't matter.

@sasamichan 3 года назад

Kind of odd how McDonalds insisting that sexier = Appropriate age lead to her being sexualized and objectified which lead to her getting a less sexualized body. But I hear this a lot from Audiences when I draw art. If I draw an adult female character and I don't give her large breasts, obvious cleavage , and lots of curves in the legs and hips the audience will assume the character is younger. Lust like how if I don't draw lines to put a character in shirt and pants they appear naked to a lot of people and even hair styles go a long way in to conveying to your audience race and gender when you present a work that's not collared in. over all culture wants to represent and diversify but fans resist change. While both points are valid I think a body type should reflect that person's life style . Lola would naturally have an athletic build. In the case of the She-Ra reboot that original cartoon was based every one looking the same because the toy company was lazy with the doll and used one mold for all the characters. Diversity adds realism. In the case of the Powerpuff Girls reeboot, Wonder Woman, Batwoman, Batgirl and Super Girl changing changing the body types takes away from the message that sexy can still also be powerful if ANY body type is OK, why are we shaming girls who can't help but be curvy by nature? You're telling young girls that its wrong to work out, wrong to eat healthy and wrong to want a curvy figure. Also Fat doesn't work on a super hero since some one who runs and jumps and fights a lot should be staying in shape. Not taking a break all the time to catch there breath. Miss Bellum is an intelligent character who doesn't deserve to be written off. and Supper Girl and Bat Woman have multiple people who can take up the mantle. They don't need movies creating a brand new character just to represent.

It’s more the problem of, ALL SUPER HEROINE CHARACTERS ARE BUILT THE FUCKING SAME! I get it if a few are curvy,but all of them are carbon copies body style wise they all have the same size breast they all have the same long ass waists and big hips, there aren’t any flat chested ones, lanky tall skinny ones, short and curvy ones, they ALL look the same. No one is saying that girls should be ashamed of being curvy in fact, Society promotes it! the thing that messes it up is that Society doesn’t promote it as a whole great you’re happy with yourself thing, It’s oh wow now I can sexualize you because you have more to look at, you’re now more worthy. You’re now the beauty standard, then that leaves a message for all the girls that don’t look like that that they aren’t good enough, they aren’t pretty, they aren’t appealing they’re not what society deems as beautiful. It’s rough on both ends it’s either your curvy so you’re sexualized, or you feel bad because you’re not. That’s why there’s so many women getting butt implants and breast implants. Even in the video it’s stated that you’re more “ womanly” if you have a more curvy form. Like you’re talkin about there not being any fat women, THEN WHERE ARE THE MUSCULAR ONES!? I’m not mad at you I’m just upset when people think body positivity and sexuality is only directed towards fat and skinny people, no it’s all people who don’t look like the predetermined view of beauty. Cause when i look at a cartoon woman on screen, I don’t see any that look like me either! Bc apparently healthy isn’t the only beauty standard.

People are actually upset that Lola isn’t as “sexy” in the new Space Jam? Don’t y’all got better things to do? Like dang the original is still there and like this video demonstrated, her major appeals aren’t so much focused on how attractive she is. Plus they are all wearing the same uniform

As a woman I greatly admired the original Lola. She was a woman and looked like one. That’s just how she looked. She didn’t have crazy disproportions like no waist or breasts bigger then her head. She was drawn feminine for sure but for her being a cartoon rabbit she seemed to have similar proportions to some women’s actual body types. She also didn’t dress in just a bra or lingerie but literally just wore what I’d wear working out (a comfy athlete crop top and short shorts). She was just naturally pretty by societal standards. And (as all to often happens) that was the first and only trait men saw when they initially met her. The male characters seemingly at first only saw her for her looks as is often the case in real life. Women (and people in general) receive snap judgments on their outward appearance and are treated accordingly. That’s life. It sucks and is unfair but thems the cards especially when you’re a woman. She recognized that. And found issue with it. (I also want to add her immidiete offensive response to being called “Doll” rather then being taken off guard and fumbling a bit hints she has likely dealt with that sort of shit before.) She then immodestly corrected them when she felt they were out of line. She then would proceed to SHOW them just how their judgment was wrong and that she had skills and wouldn’t put up with their shit and the males quickly respected her. As a teenager I would have cringed at her character but now in my twenties and having dealt with men having similar (if not less cartoony) sexist first impressions and interactions I can only admire her. She is strong willed and independent. She is confident in her body and her sense of self. And as heartbreaking as it is, I think young girls need to see men make those sort of immediate judgements and comments and see how to respond to them. Because they will likely deal with it themselves one day.

An interesting and funny idea is what if Lola was a drag king or liked putting on a more masculine look/act sometimes just to be silly and fool others. It would parallel with Bug’s drag Queen reputation and they would always compete against each other to see who can pull it off better. Edit: I also think they should make “Honey” into her middle name so as to pay an homage to her predecessor. It would have a nice ring to it.

@lianaverwood9810 3 года назад

The main issue is that Pepe has a personality _solely_ based on him being so romantically aggressive he crosses the line into serious Sexual Harassment and Stalking. Yet to remove that aspect of that personality literally neuters the Character entirely! You can't have *Pepé Lé Pew* without him being a forcefully hopeless romantic, as he's just a General French Stereotype otherwise! Meaning it's either accept him as he is, or remove him to protect yourself from Lawsuits (Yes, people are stupid enough to sue WB over animated groping!)...

I think the compromise is that you can have a character be sexy just don't make a big deal out of it. Like don't make the other characters stare, whistle, and hoot at her or make the camera focus too hard on her anatomy when she moves or speaks. Lola could've had her physical appeal and her wacky humor but for some reason director's can't have a woman with a sexy figure without making a big deal for some reason.

@sonicguyver7445 3 года назад

Honestly Lola was what drew me to the Loony Tunes Show. I was a kid of the 90s and have no shame admitting I thought Lola was sexy in Space Jam. But she felt more like a Loony Tunes character in the show. Her ability to go off the mental track to the point she even confused her self was funny. I think she made for the best episodes of the show in fact. I think she did come off as attractive too but not in the overt sexualized way she did in Space Jam. And interesting side note is that her mother, Patricia Bunny, looks closer to Lola from Space Jam then Lola herself in The Looney Tunes show. Patricia actually has the eyeshadow that Lola did in the movie.

Here is something that has always fascinated me. Lola wasn't a Loony Tune in Space Jam.

At least the way that I see it, she has always been a brave and selfless person.

@dankwaifu2093 3 года назад

Honestly, I think TLTS/Rabbits Run Lola, and to a lesser extent, the one from the DC comics, were the only ones that really made this character fit in with the rest of the cast. The Lola from Space Jam and A New Legacy are built from poor molds. Let's leave fanservice and merchandising aside for a sec; '96 Lola and her "don't call me doll", no-nonsense attitude combined with her more serious display of basketball skills make her very role model-like. And I'm sure there are people, girls, or boys, who saw her as such. The new movie, in that regard, isn't much different. She's still being presented as this character to look up to or respect, only she's less sexualized. Lola definitely has a lot more going on in the new Space Jam, but in a way she's just as bland and unfunny as the Lola from the original, because she's still falling into this role model, family movie kind of characterization. One I feel is completely at odds with Looney Tunes.

To those who said that doesn't make any sense, pretty much girls when playing sports wear sport bras to avoid their breasts bouncing off, and Lola just wore a uniform everyone else is wearing to match or either to wear less revealing smh- Lola still looks normal to me, just wearing less revealing clothing. I feel bad since most people think that Lola is just 'sexy' or something but the new movie showed that she was selfless and strong and had other character traits than being seductive, sexy, etc.

I always felt like the ideal iteration of Lola would be a combination of her Space Jam and The Looney Tunes Show personalities - still athletic and competitive, but not afraid to be goofy about it. Sort of like Bugs in the Cecil Turtle cartoons, only not so easily bamboozled. Though I also liked what the DC comics did with her, where she was aware of how demeaning her delivery job was and usually started every story with an attitude of "ugh, I'm so done with this crap". It got kind of meta, actually, sort of like she was aware of how people in the audience only saw her as sexy and didn't think she could run with the Looney Tunes superstars. Then she'd turn around and prove that, yeah, she totally could 😄
