Yosemite Sam is a cartooncharacter from the Looney Tunes. He is a cowboy, althought he has dressed as an Ancient Greco-Roman Legionnaire and a pirate in the past. He often plays the villain, althought he can be a good guy if the occassion calls for it. He first appeared in the cartoon "Hare Trigger". He is short, with thick red mustaches and a gruff accent. He appears in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit". There, when Eddie Valiant is going to Marvcin Acme's factory to investigate his murder, he walks past Sam, whose ass catched fire. Freleng created Yosemite Sam to be a more worthy adversary for Bugs Bunny. Until then, Bugs' major foe had been Elmer Fudd, a man so mild-mannered and dim-witted that Freleng thought Bugs actually came off as a bully by duping him. Sam, on the other hand, was extremely violent and belligerent, not at all a pushover like Fudd. Yosemite Sam (Picture 3). Yosemite Sam cartoon images gallery 3. Yosemite Sam cartoon pictures collection 3. Freleng compacted into a tiny body and 11-gallon hat the largest voice and the largest ego "north, south, east, aaaaand west of the Pecos". For over 19 years, except for one cartoon (Hare-Abian Nights in 1959) Freleng's unit had exclusive usage of Sam at the Warner studio. Though officially a cowboy, Freleng put Sam in a different costume in almost every film: a knight, a Roman legionary, a pirate, a royal cook, a prison guard, a duke (Duke of Yosemite, no less), a Confederate soldier, a mountain climber (climbing the 'Shmadderhorn' mountain in Switzerland), a hen-pecked househusband and even a space alien. The humor of the cartoons inevitably springs from the odd miscasting of the hot-tempered cowboy. However, some countries seem to prefer his pirate incarnation, as "Sam the pirate" is his official name in France and a frequent alternative name in Italy. While Sam's basic character is that of a cowboy, he wears a black mask (or actually, just a wide black outline on the outer sides of his eyes) to show that he's an outlaw. This is so associated with his persona that he wears the mask even when dressed as a duke, a riff, a pirate, or a Viking. Yosemite Sam (Picture 3). Yosemite Sam cartoon images gallery 3.
