The second “30 Second Bunnies Theatre Troupe” is out! Check out [“The Shining”](http://www.angryalien.com/0504/shiningbunnies.html) in all its glory.
Since I’ve never seen the actual movie, anyone care to spoil it for me and explain the ending of the cartoon?

The movie ends with a shot of a group photograph from the '20s (the period from whence the hotel’s hauntings seem to originate) that shows Jack Nicholson’s character present at the hotel’s new years eve party. This ties into a scene earlier in the film when one of the hotel ghosts (that of a previous caretaker) tells Nicholson, “You’ve _always_ been the caretaker, sir.”

I didn’t find it as funny as the Exorcist one.
What are some good films they could do in the future? Some that came to my mind are:
Silence of the Lambs (Hannibal-Bunny!)
Pulp Fiction (Bunnies doing the twist and getting medieval on each other)
Fatal Attraction (OK, there’s already a bunny in that one…)
Full Metal Jacket (Bunny voices shouting, “This is my rifle, this is my gun!”

Oh, and **Kingspades** , I don’t know if you knew this already or not, but the ending you ask about bears no resemblance whatsoever to the novel. It’s a Kubrick original “twist.”

I think both _Kill Bill, Volume 1_ and _Volume 2_ would be excellent if done “in 30 seconds, re-enacted by bunnies.” The Bunny-Bride would rock!
😃
Anyhoo…

Okay, the _Amy’s Diary_ is pretty funny too.

Thanks for the link! That was great.
Okay, now let’s see them do “Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World”.
Or should that be “… Far Side of the Meadow?”

I want to see her take on _Full Metal Jacket_. There are so many great lines to imagine in the voices of the bunnies.
“Five foot nine? I didn’t know they stacked shit that high!”
“Me so _hooo_-ney!”
“If I’m gonna die for a word, it’s gonna be _poon-tang_.”
