In a twist onJack and the Beanstalk, Bugs Bunny finds himself in a giant's realm in the sky, where he angers the dim-witted giant by chopping down carrots in hisvictory garden. Bugs spends the movie evading the giant, even challenging him to a duel. In the end he tricks the giant into falling from the sky-land to earth, leaving a canyon-like hole in the ground from which he delivers the final line: "watch out for that first step, it's a lulu."
Jack-Wabbit and the Beanstalk is a parody of thefairy taleJack and the Beanstalk. It should not be confused withBeanstalk Bunny (1955), another parody of this story starring Bugs Bunny,Daffy Duck, andElmer Fudd.
