'''''Red Hot Riding Hood''''' is an animated cartoon short subject, directed by Creator/TexAvery and released on May 8, [[TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation 1943]] by MetroGoldwynMayer. It is one of Avery's most popular cartoons, inspiring several of his own "sequel" shorts (which really were just shorts with a similar plot and the same characters, though notably Droopy was involved with many of the other shorts Wolfie and Red appear in) as well as influencing other cartoons and feature films for years afterward.

* "Swing Shift Cinderella" (1945) -- Very much like the first short, only of course, based on Cinderella.

* "Little Rural Riding Hood" (1949) -- Essentially had a CityMouse[=/=]CountryMouse plot, with a hillbilly wolf and a sophisticated urban wolf.

* AbhorrentAdmirer: Granny is just as attracted to Wolfie as he is to Red.

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Whenever Wolfie first sees Red, he jumps out of his chair and stiffens his whole body in mid-air horizontally, kind of like a... you know...

* FollowThatCar: Wolfie tells a taxi driver to follow Red's car, and he does... without Wolfie inside the taxi.

* {{Gainaxing}}: Prevalent on Red's ample bosom.

* HotterAndSexier: ...and zanier too.

* NoGuyWantsToBeChased: Once the tables are turned on Wolfie and Granny is lusting after ''him'', he is terrified and does his best to run away, to no avail.

* NotSoDifferent: Through most of Little Rural Riding Hood, Wolfie's urbane cousin laments Wolfie's lack of self control around Red. He drives Wolfie back to the country, sees the country girl that was Wolfie's crush before Red, and... loses it exactly like Wolfie did over Red. Then Wolfie laments his cousin's lack of self control and sends him back to the city.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: At the start of "Little Rural Riding Hood", Red's country counterpart is delivering a jug of moonshine to her grandma, but we never see any sign of her grandma.

* {{Expy}}: Gets one in ''TomAndJerryKids'' called Miss Vavoom.

* DistressedDamsel: The shorts featuring Droopy tended to turn Red into this, in contrast to those without him, where she was perfectly capable of fending off the Wolf's advances herself.

* [[HelloNurse Hello, Nurse!]]: Wolfie's reaction to Red, and Granny's reaction to him.

* "Little Rural Riding Hood" (1949) -- Essentially had a CityMouse[=/=]CountryMouse plot, with a hillbilly wolf and a sophisticated urban wolf. It occupies the 23rd place on the list of The50GreatestCartoons, though it incorporates StockFootage of Red singing from "Swing Shift Cinderella."

'''''Red Hot Riding Hood''''' is an animated cartoon short subject, directed by Creator/TexAvery and released on May 8, [[TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation 1943]] by MetroGoldwynMayer. In 1994 it was voted #7 of The50GreatestCartoons of all time by members of the animation field. It is one of Avery's [[MagnumOpus most popular cartoons]], inspiring several of his own "sequel" shorts (which really were just shorts with a similar plot and the same characters, though notably Droopy was involved with many of the other shorts Wolfie and Red appear in) as well as influencing other cartoons and feature films for years afterward.

* LadyInRed: The singer/showgirl/stripper. She's even unofficially named Red, probably as much from her hair as her costume (which is white in several of the shorts).

* BigNo: Red rejects Wolfie very loudly this way, [[LarynxDissonance and in a man's voice.]]

* GrassIsGreener: Not as a song per se, but in "Little Rural Riding Hood" the hick wolf is happy to chase hick Red until he sees what he's missing in the city. [[spoiler: and City Wolf, who seems coolly indifferent to City Red, flips for Rural Red!]]

** Also the Wolves in ''Little Rural Riding Hood'' are attracted solely to their counterpart's version of Red, not their own.

** ''Film/TheMask'' contains quite a few shout-outs to this short in particular. The main character is even shown watching the short on TV.

* "Uncle Tom's Cabaña" (1947) -- An adaptation of ''UncleTomsCabin'' which featured Red. Wolfie doesn't appear, as here he is replaced by Simon [=LeGreedy=]. [[UncleTomfoolery It's not often shown anywhere in the United States.]]

* FollowThatCar!: Wolfie tells a taxi driver to follow Red's car, and he does... without Wolfie inside the taxi.

* {{Gainaxing}}: Previlent on Red's ample bosom.
* GlamorousWartimeSinger: Red was based off of these. In one of her later shorts she does sing a song with a wartime theme.

* LoveMakesYouCrazy: For The Wolf and Grandma
* LostForever: Although [[ExecutiveMeddling the censors demanded the original ending to be changed]] it was said that the uncut version of the short was made but only send off for the troops at War. Tex collected uncut versions of his cartoons, so it is clearly unknown if it would ever turn up.

* RevisedEnding: The short's original ending had Granny marrying the wolf at a ShotgunWedding (with a caricature of Tex Avery as the Justice of the Peace who marries them), and having the unhappy couple and their [[HalfHumanHybrid half-human half-wolf children]] attend Red's show. Granted, the ending they eventually settled on [[DrivenToSuicide wasn't exactly]] [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids kid-friendly either]] (which is why it has been edited on TV).

** ''Film/TheMask'' contains quite a few shout outs to this short in particular. The main character is even shown watching the short on TV.

** The line originally comes from a slogan for Old Gold cigarettes in the 1940s.

* SomethingElseAlsoRises: The Wolf's reactions to Red. In fact, most of them (like steam erupting from out of the Wolf's collar as he tugs at it) were considered too obscene to be shown by the Hays Office censors (by today's standards, the steam thing isn't that risque).
* TakeThat: It wouldn't be the last time Tex took a jab at the cute and cuddly animation that was popular in the 1930's.
* TheCatCameBack: When Granny chases after Wolfie, he just can't seem to get away from her.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: At the start of "Little Rural Riding Hood" Red's country counterpart is delivering a jug of moonshine to her grandma, but we never see any sign of her grandma.
