Lola Bunny is a Looney Tunes cartoon character portrayed as an anthropomorphic female rabbit. She is Bugs Bunny's girlfriend. She was created as "female merchandising counterpart" to Bugs Bunny. She first appeared in the 1996 film ''Space Jam''.〔Sandler, Kevin (1998). (''Reading the Rabbit: Explorations in Warner Bros. Animation'' ), p. 9. Rutgers University Press. ISBN 0813525381〕 ==''Space Jam''== Lola first appeared in the 1996 film ''Space Jam''. She is shown with tan fur, blonde bangs, and wears a purple rubber band on both ears like a ponytail. She has aqua colored eyes. Lola is voiced by Kath Soucie in the film. Lola's basketball skills get her a spot on the Tune Squad, in which the ''Looney Tunes'' characters battle the villainous Monstars for their freedom, with help from Michael Jordan. Although she initially has no interest in Bugs, repeatedly turning down his advances, her feelings shift from platonic to romantic after he saves her from a belly-flopping Monstar, getting himself painfully squashed in the process. Acting on these feelings, she kisses him and near the film's end, becoming his girlfriend. Lola was created to serve as a romantic interest for Bugs. While Bugs expressed "heterosexual desire" in previous films, his sexual orientation as described by Jonathan Romney involved polysexuality.〔Sandler (2001), p. 141-143〕 Lola has a "curvaceous body", wears tight clothes, and poses seductively when she first appears on screen. In response, Bugs is instantly smitten and several other male characters ogle at her.〔 〔The male characters involved in the scene are nearly the entire male cast of the Looney Tunes Filmography.〕 Lola demonstrates her basketball skills and then the film makes use of a Tex Avery-style gag concerning the libido of males: Bugs floats up the air and then crashes to the floor. The scene is reminiscent of "Wolfie" from ''Red Hot Riding Hood'' (1943), a character defined by his lust for females. The effect serves to reduce Bugs and his fellow characters to stereotypical "guys".〔 This adds to the film a sub-plot typical for the romantic comedy of whether there will be romance between Lola and Bugs. Lola does have a feminist catchphrase, ''"Don't call me doll"'', and her athleticism is not a typical feminine trait. But these traits are contradicted and undermined by the "rhythic swing of her cottontail" while showing off and the accompanying music.〔 As Tony Cervone explained, the animators originally had in mind more "tomboyish" traits for her, but feared that she would appear "too masculine". So they ended up emphasizing her "feminine attributes", and turned her into "a heterosexualized object".〔 The romantic sub-plot of the film concludes with a conventional resolution. Lola is nearly injured by one of the opponents in the basketball game, and Bugs rescues her. Bugs receives her grateful kiss during the game, and kisses her back following its end, with Lola reacting in her own Tex Avery-style gag on libido.〔 Lola's personality is a combination of the Hawksian woman, tomboy and femme fatale archetypes.〔 She is a tough talking, no-nonsense woman who is extremely independent and self-reliant. She is highly athletic while also incredibly seductive in her behavior. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lola Bunny」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
