History WesternAnimation / AnyBondsToday

* AmericaWonWorldWarII: This is the message the cartoon wants to provide to its audience. Upon purchasing war bonds, of course.

* ShoutOut:
** The song "Any Bonds Today" was written by Music/IrvingBerlin and based on his own 1938 song "Any Yams Today".
** Bugs at one point sings in {{Blackface}}, imitating Creator/AlJolson's hit song "Mammy" from ''Film/TheJazzSinger''.

* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: The title card reads "Leon Schlesinger Presents Bugs Bunny", but it is commonly referred to as "Any Bonds Today", since this song is heard throughout most of the picture.

"Any Bonds Today?" is the fan nickname for a 1942 untitled WarTimeCartoon featuring WesternAnimation/BugsBunny, WesternAnimation/PorkyPig and Elmer Fudd and directed by Creator/BobClampett. With a total length of 1 minute and 38 seconds long it's the shortest officially released WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes cartoon of UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation.

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: Not only is this the shortest ever released Looney Tunes short from UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation, but it is also the only one where no actual story takes place.

This was one of the 12 Bugs Bunny cartoons banned by Cartoon Network for showing racially insensitive content, though, much like "What's Cookin' Doc?", this is one of the least offensive shorts on that list. At worst, the short comes off as [[UnintentionalPeriodPiece a product of its time]], thanks to the short scene of Bugs donning blackface and singing like Al Jolson (and, of course, the fact that it's a commercial encouraging viewers of the time to buy war bonds). However, it should be noted that Cartoon Network aired "Any Bonds Today?" as part of an early 2000s ''[=ToonHeads=]'' special about Warner Bros. studios' rare and obscure animated and live-action pieces and the worst they did to this short was cut Bugs' Al Jolson in blackface part by using a page-turning wipe effect, so the decision to ban it outright on the June Bugs 2001 marathon makes no sense at all.

* {{Bowdlerization}}: As mentioned above, when this cartoon aired on the Cartoon Network ''[=ToonHeads=]'' special about lost, rare, and obscure Warner Bros. works (both live-action and animated), the entire blackface part was cut by using a simple page-turning effect. It was also one of 12 Bugs Bunny cartoons to be banned for racially insensitive content.

With a total length of 1 minute and 38 seconds long it's the shortest officially released WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes cartoon of UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation. It's in essence a Propaganda film where the trio promote buying war bonds to finance the government's war effort.

* {{Blackface}}: Bugs at one point sings in {{Blackface}}. Many modern viewers assume he is imitating a black person, but in reality this is a shout-out to popular singer Music/AlJolson and his role in ''Film/TheJazzSinger''.

* PunBasedTitle: Bugs imitates Al Jolson's song "Mammy" and changes it into "Sammy", referencing UncleSam.

** During the opening scenes of WebOriginal/TheCinemaSnob's 2011 review of ''Film/HitlerDeadOrAlive'' Brad Jones uses footage from this cartoon, but cuts away before Bugs's face turns into {{Blackface}}. He lampshades this by saying:
--> ''Sure hope nothing horribly offensive happened at the end of that cartoon...?''

* NoPlotNoProblem: Bugs, Porky and Elmer sing and dance in order for the audience to buy war bonds. That's all that happens in this short that was only made for propaganda purposes.

* TimeMarchesOn: Nowadays it's only interesting a historical curiosity.
