As part of stem cell research.
This just offers the possibility of soooo many bad movie titles, like Dawn of the Lepus (starring DeForrest Kelly’s zombi!), Bride of Frankenbunny, Shawn of the Lepus, and Dracula vs. Frankenbunny, to name but a few.
This will not end well. Didn’t any of these scientists see the last Wallace & Gromit movie?
Night of the Lepus, Tuckerfan! Night!
“Home . . . I haff no home. Hanted . . . despised . . . liffing like an animal – de jongle iss my home! But I vill show de world dat I can be its master. I shall perfect my own rice of rebbits – a rice of atomic superbonnies vhich vill conquer de vorld!”
Why oh why did I read this and immediately think of ‘furries’? shudder I’ve been on the interweb too long.
ObAnya:
bunnies aren’t just cute like everybody supposes
they got them hoppie legs and twicthy little noses
and what’s with all the carrots?
what do they need such good eyesight anyway?
bunnies, bunnies, it must be bunnies!

(or maybe midgets)
Uncanny. It is almost like Bela is here!
You should read me doing Patty Duke in Valley of the Dolls, it’s amazing!
I heard a scientist explaining this on the radio afew days ago. He said that anyone who thought there would be half man/half rabbit creatures simply didn’t understand the science. He said fortunately it will never happen because he, like everyone else, was terrified by the rabbit/man in Donnie Darko.
These’ll be no ordinary rabbits! They’ll be the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodents* you ever set eyes on! These rabbits will have a vicious streak a mile wide!
*Actually lagomorphs, not rodents. Well, half-lagomorph, half-primate, anyway.
Yes, I know, and given the subject matter of the thread (Frankenbunnies), and the late DeForrest Kelly starring in Night, I was riffing a sequel to it like the Night of the Living Dead. You know, Dawn of the Dead, followed by Day of the Dead, as well as riffing off of the various Frankenstein sequels.
The creature speaks …
“What’s up, Doc?!”
I love it when science catches up with Mad Science. I’m still waiting for a flying car and a robot butler though.
One robotic butler coming right up!
Still waiting for Kent Brockman to weigh-in on the frankenbunny matter, surprisingly.
It’s a great time to be alive!
“Look at the bones, man !”
I propose a moratorium on Frankenbunny research until Holy Hand Grenade technology has a chance to catch up.
I thought this was Frankenrabbit.
Run away! Run away! Run away!
