These Looney Tunes look-alikes can't fool anyone — can they?

 Warner Brothers

Looney Tunes creators are some of the most creative folks in the business. They have a knack for taking an idea and getting absolutely wacky with it, hence the lovable rascals we know today (here's lookin' at you, Bugs Bunny!).

When it came to their 1941 cartoon "Hollywood Steps Out," there was no shortage of creativity and hilarity. In this part spoof featuring some of the biggest names in the biz at the time, Hollywood's finest attend a delightful soirée.

The eight-minute short shows the stars arriving, greeting one another, and settling in for a night of revelry and fun. Many of Hollywood's finest are easy to spot, and others are a little trickier. Let's see if you can name them all. Can you recognize the cartoon versions of these A-list Hollywood elites from the golden age?

* Perfect Score! Knew most but guessed right on a few!

13/13. I grew up with a dad from the 1920s who loved Edward G Robinson movies. They should have a bonus question: Who is the actor kissing Groucho Marx. I am sure everyone here will know the answer!

Nailed it. One guess and one by elimination, others were easy.

Who the hell is "Zappo" Marx?
Zeppo Marx was the fourth Marx broter. He played in a few of their movies usually as a straight man to the other three. He didn't wear a costume as his brothers did. He later went in to the production end of the movie business.

Yes, Zeppo was the fourth Marx Brother...but Zappo was used twice in this quiz. There was no ZAPPO Marx.
KellyO CraigGustafson 16 months ago
There was no Zappo. Unless he is the twin of Zeppo and they hid him under the stairs.

The Grapes of Wrath was NOT his film debut.

"You got 10 out of 10
Wowee! That's an impressive eye for stars you've got there. Well done!"

What's really "impressive" about this score is that I got 3 wrong! I guess that's a nice change from choosing the right answers and being told I picked something else.

Same here. "Cary Grant" looked nothing like him, so I missed that one, and I never heard the "Oomph Girl" nickname, so I missed that one too.

I missed the one with Ann Sheridan but I was in a hurry.

By the time this syndicated 1940's cartoon aired on TV many of us baby boomers didn't get all of the jokes such as the reference to Bing Crosby's horse. ☺

The fun's in looking it up.

Irving Berlin's name is misspelled. 13 of 13 but no score given after taking the quiz - a fun one, though.

It said I got 10/10 and I clearly missed at least 2. Also more than ten questions but who am I to judge.
