What’s up, Dark Knight? Before Bugs Bunny celebrates his 85th anniversary in July, the hare extraordinaire is marking another milestone: 65 years of the Annecy International Animation Film Festival. In a trailer for this year’s event, which runs from June 8 through June 14 in France, Bugs introduces a cavalcade of cartoon characters from Warner Bros. Animation’s storied history. “Here with me to celebrate animation is everyone,” says Bugs, voiced by New Looney Tunes and Looney Tunes Cartoons voice actor Eric Bauza.
