*BatmanParody: The ACME Batman outfit. Though justified because Warner Bros. did not purchase DC Comics until 13 years after this short came out, and as a result, they could not obtain the rights to use the real Batman's outfit. Thus, were forced to make the suit green, remove the ears and replace the cape with bat wings. They also made the suit a full spandex instead of separate armor-based parts and it does not have a utility belt either.

* ColdOpen: The Coyote is standing behind a billboard on which the title is shown. As he starts the ChaseScene, he notices a truck coming (on which the credits appear) and promptly reverses course. Having been run over by the truck, the dazed Coyote tries to get up, but winds up being hit by a large crate on which the director credit appears. He throws it off completely, none the worse for wear, and resumes the chase.

The device then retracts along with the TNT and blows up not only Wile E., but also a huge chunk of the wall where the Wile E.-shaped hole was.

** Cut entirely was a scene where Wile E. shoots a rifle at the Road Runner, who so outruns the bullet that it becomes dumbfounded and stops and falls to the ground, which an equally dumbfounded Wile E. picks up, whereupon the bullet explodes in his hand.
** The scene of Wile E. trying to blow up the Road Runner with a stick of dynamite on a spring was partially edited to remove the last part of the scene: after Wile E. accidentally backs himself into a canyon wall, the dynamite recoils back at him and blows up.

''"Gee Whiz-z-z-z-z-z-z" is a 1956 ''Looney Tunes'' short featuring Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner.

In this short, Wile E's attempts to catch the Roadrunner include a gun, a sheet of Battle Steel Armor, dynamite, a green Batman costume, an anvil, a fake painting of a bridge being out (this being a reversal of a usual gag where the Roadrunner can "jump into a painting" and Wile E cannot), and a makeshift bicycle from handle bars and a jet motor. In the end, as he falls, the Coyote holds up a sign, requesting the cartoon end before he lands, and his wish is granted.
