History WesternAnimation / SeeYaLaterGladiator

* CloseCallHaircut: Daffy tries swinging his wooden sword at the lion, but ends up chopping off much of his mane, giving him a [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Bart Simpson]]-esque crew cut. Despite being the antagonist of the fight, the lion is not amused.

* LimitedAnimation: Which is one of the reasons why this cartoon is considered the worst in the original ''Looney Tunes'' series.

* OffModel: Daffy and Speedy frequently fall victim to this throughout the short.

* UsefulNotes/LooneyTunesInTheSixties

* TookALevelInJerkass: Whereas the previous two Daffy/Speedy cartoons had tried to pare back Daffy's {{jerkass}} qualities -- in "Fiesta Fiasco" he only went after Speedy due to a misunderstanding and made up with him at the end of the short, while in "Skyscraper Caper" Daffy wasn't antagonistic at all -- this cartoon turns them back UpToEleven, making Daffy seem excessively bad-tempered and vindictive even compared to the prior shorts in this series.

''See Ya Later Gladiator'' is a 1968 WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes animated short film starring WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck and WesternAnimation/SpeedyGonzales, who had been paired together in a series of cartoons from 1965 to 1968. This was their final theatrical pairing, as well as the final cartoon to star "classic" Creator/WarnerBros characters. After this short, until the cartoon division closed in 1969, new characters like Cool Cat, Bunny and Claude, Merlin the Magic Mouse, and a few one-shot cartoons made up all of WB's output.

This cartoon is generally regarded as the worst Warner Bros. cartoon of all time for its sheer laziness in animation, music, and story (though it can be argued that the final Warner Bros. short ''WesternAnimation/InjunTrouble1969'' is worse than this).

* BerserkButton: "You broke my fiddle! Now I'm gonna break your neck!"

* LimitedAnimation

* RearrangeTheSong: Bill Lava's strange atonal version of "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down" theme music gets an even ''stranger'' variation used in this cartoon, notably with brass horns and a piano accompany the "swirling lines" effects. It also got used on the next cartoon, Cool Cat's ''3 Ring Wing Ding'', before reverting back to the standard Seven Arts-era version of the opening theme.

* StockFootage: The same animation of Daffy walking to the lab window is used twice, with Daffy holding a broom in the first and without in the second.
