Added 2024-04-19 16:00:17 +0000 UTCHere's the full length reaction to Who Framed Roger Rabbit! I don't think I've ever seen a movie immediately win a poll quite like this one did (and now I see why it won). I had so much fun with this movie! Enjoy!

Between both ROGER RABBIT and COOL WORLD, I hated both of them, but I leaned more toward COOL WORLD even though I know it's a worse movie. I think I was too old by this point to care about cartoons or hybrid movies like these.

2024-05-11 16:58:31 +0000 UTCPoor Jessica, she didnβt want to be bad she was just drawn that way. I think what really makes this movie work is the makers clearly love classic cartoons as well as LA noir detective movies like Chinatown and The Big Sleep. It doesnβt skip out on either genre.

2024-04-21 10:01:29 +0000 UTCEvery time I watch this, I'm impressed by how well it was done. Especially when the toons interact with real life stuff. Plus, the crossover of Mickey and Bugs, Donald and Daffy was pretty mind-blowing as a kid.

2024-04-21 00:04:41 +0000 UTCThe physical interactions between the toons and the people was so well done. I've loved this movie for years, and I'm so glad you enjoyed it π

2024-04-19 23:55:50 +0000 UTCMy first Friday off in a long time and I get to watch this with you!! The live action and cartoon interaction was ahead of it's time for this movie. "Maroon Cartoon" They used to say maroon instead of moron as a gag in older cartoons. So we basically get to watch a Moron(ic) Cartoon. Yosemite Sam's line, "My biscuits are burnin'" was used in Toy Story 2 by Stinky Pete when he tried to put out a fire with his butt. You're not the only one who felt bad for a cartoon shoe getting dipped. All of us did! As Eddie was trying to saw through the cuffs Roger frees himself.... Eddie: "Do you mean to tell me that you could have taken your hand outta that cuff at any time?" Roger: "No. Only when it was funny." This scene takes me back to A Muppet Christmas Carol where Rizzo has climbed to the top of the fence and then jumps. After he's on the ground he gets his jelly beans by going through the bars. Gonzo: "You can fit through those bars?" Rizzo: "Yeah." There is our funny moment. "tap tap-tap-tap tap" ..... Most of us finally find out that "Shave and a haircut, two bits" are the words for that thing everyone does and waits for the reply. two bits was equal to 25 cents. My favorite jokes from this movie are.... The PROBATE joke, I was rolling again. The "Booby trap" joke. You had a laugh at that one. After Roger and Jessica got down from the hook they said... Jessica: "Oh, honey bunny." Roger: "Oh, love cup." L O L Such a fun and funny movie!! Thank you, Addie!! I hope you have a wonderful weekend!!

2024-04-19 20:06:42 +0000 UTCSpeaking of James Stewart, I also suggest Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) & Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window (1954). #MoreJamesStewartForAddieCounts

2024-04-19 18:58:36 +0000 UTCThis one is fun. I love the attention to detail as they mix animation and live action. My favorite bit is when the weasel splashes the water while Eddie is hiding Roger. Love that bit. (That weasel is voiced by David Lander, who is probably best known for playing Squiggy on Laverne and Shirley). Consider checking out Harvey (1950), starring James Stewart. They reference this film in the scene when Angelo looks like he might rat out Roger.

2024-04-19 18:16:11 +0000 UTCEh, "Coming to America" (which came out the same year) was almost certainly a much better fit for him. I don't think he would've brought the same gravitas to the role that Hoskins did.

2024-04-19 17:21:47 +0000 UTCIt's always fun to see a reaction to this one. It never gets old to me. The making of this movie is just as entertaining. All hand-drawn animation with practical physical effects made this a really difficult shoot. Not to mention the copyright agreements to get all the different cartoon characters from different studios in one movie. We have Steven Spielberg to thank for that. And to this day, Eddie Murphy says he feels like an "idiot" for turning down the role of the private eye Valiant. He thought a movie with animation mixed with live-action actors would be a flop. Oops!

2024-04-19 16:55:40 +0000 UTCShe has already seen that movie, according to her Letterboxd account. But I'm also throwing in Looney Tunes: Back in Action (2003) with Brendan Fraser as well. #LooneyTunesBackInActionForAddieCounts

2024-04-19 16:47:46 +0000 UTCYes, that tunnel looked familiar. That's the Mt. Hollywood tunnel at Griffith Park.

2024-04-19 16:45:45 +0000 UTCYo Addie (In Rockys voice). Another movie that has real life characters mixed with cartoons just like this Is a very fun movie called "Space Jam" want to request it for you for a future reaction. I always watch this along side Who Framed Rodger Rabbit. You'll love it.

2024-04-19 16:43:26 +0000 UTCDid that tunnel leading into Toon Town look familiar? Robert Zemeckis used it again the following year for the scene where Biff chases down Marty after getting back the sports almanac in "Back to the Future, Part II."

2024-04-19 16:43:20 +0000 UTCSpeaking of Christopher Lloyd, I also suggest The Addams Family (1991) & Addams Family Values (1993) for Halloween, as well as Disney's My Favorite Martian (1999) with Jeff Daniels and Nobody (2021) with Bob Odenkirk. #MoreChristopherLloydForAddieCounts

2024-04-19 16:20:11 +0000 UTCHappy Friday, Addie! π RIP always to Bob Hoskins(who played Eddie Valiant)! I love this movie so much! I've always loved the combination live action and animation. Christopher Lloyd's Judge Doom has always been one of my favorite movie villians. He plays that roll so well. And that last few minutes when we see Doom as a toon used to scare me when I was younger. It still freaks me out a little. LOL! Two other good movies with Bob Hoskins that I highly recommend is the 1991 "Hook"(if you haven't already seen it) and the 1990 "Mermaids". And three great movies with Christopher Lloyd that I very highly recommend: "Clue" from 1985, "Angels in the Outfield" from 1994, and the animated "Anastasia" from 1997. Have a great day today, and a great weekend! π

2024-04-19 16:07:02 +0000 UTCHappy Friday, Addie. I'm so glad that you enjoyed Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988). This is one of my favorite Robert Zemeckis movies alongside the Back to the Future trilogy and Forrest Gump (1994). This is also the ULTIMATE cartoon crossover ever, especially when Mickey Mouse met Bugs Bunny. The animation & live-action hybrid make a really nice combo.
