Talk:Cecil Turtle

message: Is that bit at the end of the Tortoise wins by a hare accurate, or just vandalism? I live in the united states, and so for all i know it could be true, but i just find it hard to believe that they would include mass suicide in a cartoon. 12.218.144.63 01:20, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Tortoise Wins ending

message: An earlier edit using language like "they all look identical to Bugs" was changed because turtles don't look like rabbits. I intended to say that they appear identical to each other to Bugs, who enters the episode unfamiliar with turtles. But I'll grant that Wahkeenah's "they all look like Cecil" is probably better wording. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 05:49, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Setting the wording straight 

message: ...is a shorthand way of saying that the film ends and a black circle comes in and closes out the picture (much like the iris of the eye, or of a camera). Many films and cartoons end this way. The term is used in various film books, such as the Beck / Friewald book, Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies, a highly detailed encyclopedia of the WB cartoons that is a secondary source for much of the material in wikipedia about the WB cartoons.

thread_title:  Iris-out... 

message: I fixed the order of some of the plot points in "Tortoise Beats Hare." The old version had Cecil phoning for help right after making the bet with Bugs, but he actually makes the call after the start of the race. I also removed references to the other turtles as Cecil's cousins/relatives, since they are never referred to that way in the cartoon. (Maybe all turtles just look alike to us, as well as to Bugs?) 96.252.89.97 (talk) 05:19, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: But is it even Bugs, or is it one of his relatives? Is there any evidence in the film or in any secondary source that the rabbit of Bugs's species with a voice identical to that of Bugs is in fact Bugs? Someone changed all instances of "Bugs" to "Speedy", allegedly the only name that can be verified within the film. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 02:53, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Plot of Tortoise Beats Hare 

message: The article needs a pic of Cecil with his shell on. Can anyone with a TV-in box and a video of "Tortoise Beats Hare" get a pic of the scene where Cecil phones Chester? You can adapt the rationale from the existing "naked Cecil" pic. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 00:08, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
