Duck Dodgers is an animated science-fiction action comedy produced and directed by Spike Brandt and Tony Cervone. It is based on the meta-fictional character played by Daffy Duck from the Looney Tunes series and follows the plot of the television series of the same name. It is a spinoff of the The Looney Tunes Movie and serves as the third film in the Warner Bros. Cinematic Looniverse.
Synopsis[]
Duck Dodgers (Daffy Duck) was just a hapless waterboy for the Midstate University football team, so it was hard to imagine how much his life would change on one fateful day. After accidentally getting frozen for over three centuries, he finds himself freed by Dr. I.Q. Hi in the 24th-and-a-half century and claims to be a 21st-century hero. However, he'll get way more than he bargained for when the Martian military, led by the villainous Commander X-2 (Marvin the Martian), plans an invasion that will threaten the entire universe. With his Eager, Young Space Cadet (Porky Pig) by his side, Duck Dodgers will have to prove to the universe--and himself--that he can be the hero he made himself out to be.
