- Who Framed Roger Rabbit Reaction is today's video! Hey everyone! Join me as I watch Who Framed Roger Rabbit for the first time!
Down-on-his-luck private eye Eddie Valiant (Bob Hoskins) gets hired by cartoon producer R.K. Maroon (Alan Tilvern) to investigate an adultery scandal involving Jessica Rabbit (Kathleen Turner), the sultry wife of Maroon's biggest star, Roger Rabbit (Charles Fleischer). But when Marvin Acme (Stubby Kaye), Jessica's alleged paramour and the owner of Toontown, is found murdered, the villainous Judge Doom (Christopher Lloyd) vows to catch and destroy Roger.

Fun fact, the person who played Betty Boop is the same person who voiced her in the old cartoons. It was her last performance as the character, and I think her last performance before her passing.
She still got it!
@@godabandonedthistimeline Yup, she does.
It’s still unfortunate the original inspiration for Betty Boop was never given credit or money for her role in BB’s creation. They shamelessly stole from a black woman, made BB a dog girl, and then once they saw ppl were attracted to her, made her a white woman.
Can’t see BB the same way since
@@ma.2089 Really? That’s interesting and unfortunate.
Mae Quetzel. Yup, she played Betty one last time here and passed away in 1998.
Fun Fact: This was actually the last film to have Mel Blanc reprise his role as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Yosemite Sam, Sylvester the Cat and Tweety Bird from Looney Tunes.
RIP Mel Blanc
The VO Legend and The Goat 🐐👑🎧🎙🐰
@@danielkingjr197 Yep.
He also did some Voice-Actor work at Hanna-Barbera, too
@@thefantasticretroreviewer3941
Yeah
I made a Petition for A Voice Actors Hall of Fame inducting VO Legends including Blanc, June Foray, Daws Butler, Grey Griffin, Tara Strong and many others
@@danielkingjr197 Really?
That was nice of you to try doing that.
For what I heard he could actually no longer do Yosemite Sam anymore since he is too raspy and he had gotten too old so this was the first time his current voice did him
The amount of negotiations that the production team had to do to get permission to use both Warner Bros. and Disney characters in this film was insane. Because of it, Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse could only appear together at the same time for the exact same amount of screen time. But it was worth it and led to a really great film. The piano duet between Daffy Duck and Donald Duck is one of my favourite scenes in the film.
And if it weren't for Steven Spielberg doing the negotiations, it never would have happened.
In the pan over maroon studios, you see bugs for a moment, and then when Mickey and bugs show up during the fall, Mickey pops up first for about the same amount of time bugs was alone earlier
"This is the last time I work with someone with a speech impediment!"
*Fun Fact:* There was a commercial on Daffy Duck's Quackbusters, before the movie starts, where Daffy's talking about merchandise, and when they put Donald's name on the screen, he said: "How could you confuse a star like me, with that other duck who can't even talk straight?!?"
Daffy and Donald as Dueling Pianists is one of the greatest scenes in the history of animation lol. As is Mickey and Bugs' scene.
Jessica's line "He makes me laugh" really sticks with me
Humor is powerful, the message of Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
@@fynnthefox9078 amen 🙏
@@fynnthefox9078Isn't the movie really focusing on racism? Eddie can be considered "Racist" towards toon characters, until he's forced to work with one, leading to him becoming more tolerating of them (Roger in particular).
LogaT547
Don’t overthink it. He just doesn’t like toons for the reason the movie said.
_Who Framed Roger Rabbit_ was a staple in my childhood, and I love seeing people react to it for the first time.
Same! This alongside The Wizard of Oz were some of my earliest memories of watching anything.
Me too
Me too!! It brings me so much joy watching others enjoy it as much as I have.❤️
Me too and I seen it when I was little and it's my favorite movie from my childhood and it's a good movie but not funny about this movie and it's still a good movie but not funny about this movie and who agree with me about what I say
This is one of Robert Zemeckis best films he’s ever worked on along with the Back to the Future movies and Forest Gump, this movie is way better than I remember as a kid, the cast was on spot on, the animation is amazing, a pretty good story that is strong and compelling, and pretty good villain that is terrifying and conniving and nowadays Robert didn’t get much love to his latter movies like the Pinocchio remake (2022) but this movie remains one of my favorites movies of all time and it does have a soft place in my heart.
I blame studio intervention for how bad Pinocchio was
It does feel kind of rich that Robert Zemeckis, who literally stated that he believed that his Back to the Future series should never get more sequels/ a remake/ a reboot, is totally okay with directing garbage remakes like The Witches and Pinocchio.
what i love is that jessica is seen as the lucky one, as she's a two bit lounge singer and roger is a major star. being hilarious is the standard of attractiveness for toons, and he's right up at the top. also, she adores him, and it's really sweet to see.
Me, it's when she says " I'm not bad, I'm just drawn that way " who shows she's more than a femme fatale
“Who Framed Roger Rabbit” is not a kids movie and was never intended to be. It was always meant to be for adults and is more about nostalgia for the audience that actually grew up on the older animated cartoons.
This movie is an example of a hard PG rating. Nowadays, PG just means near-swears and fart jokes.
Eddie: Seriously, what do you see in that guy?
Jessica: He makes me laugh.
Oddly enough, she never laughs in the whole movie.
@@zoppie Lots of circumstances where even a toon can’t find humour, and she was apart from him when he was funny most of the time.
@@zoppie True, though based on the "booby trap", she's got a sense of humor.
When Judge Doom is first introduced, the police detective explains that Doom spread a million "simoleons" around Toontown and one thinks he is using a nickname for dollars. Later Eddie explains to Roger (in the balcony of the movie theater) that he and his brother was investigating the theft of a million simoleons from the First Bank of Toontown when a safe was dropped on his brother.
I've watched the movie (and the many reactions to it) MANY times and only just got it. DOOM stole the simoleons and killed Eddie's brother to flee the scene of the crime, which is where he got the money to buy his election to be a judge.
same here, just caught that myself for the first time with watching this reaction
There's a poster in Maroon's office depicting a Toon, the Pistol Packin' Possum, whose fur is the same yellow colour as the colour on the rope of the safe that was dropped on Acme and the same colour of Doom's uncovered Toon hand. The Possum's eyes are also a very red colour, and the pistol he's seen packin' in the poster is of the same model as the pistol Doom used to shoot Maroon. The Pistol Packin' Possum's poster is even positioned in a way that makes his pistol point at Roger in a poster right next to it... So, who did frame Roger Rabbit? Doom weren't no rabbit, or a duck, or a dog, or a little wooden boy, or a sheep, or a wolf, or a woodpecker, or a cat... but he was definitely something alright...
@@redmoonbloodmoon3161 There's also multiple giveaway hints foreshadowing Judge Doom's reveal as a seriously disturbed Toon (perhaps the Pistol-Packing Possum, Baron Von Ruthless) wearing an elaborate Christopher Lloyd human skin disguise, such as Christopher Lloyd choosing to not blink whenever the character was on-screen, a mysterious gust of wind always blowing his black cape behind him even when there was no way for this to be possible beyond cartoon logic, Judge Doom wisely wearing gloves when he DIPS the Nancy Cartwright-voiced squeaky shoe, jumping aside when the fleeing Eddie Valiant & Roger Rabbit had knocked over the barrel of DIP which the weasel Toon Patrol had brought into the Terminal Bar -- seeing as how the Judge had planned to execute Roger at that point, until the private detective intervened on the innocent Toon bunny's behalf -- and the blanket statement directed to Roger by Eddie when Judge Doom used the "Shave & a Haircut" jingle to lure the victimized Toon out of hiding, "I don't know who's Toonier, you or Doom."
I really love this movie as it brought so much laughter for me as a kid that I laughed myself to death (not literally though)! Not to mention what they did with Jessica Rabbit's design was insane and probably the start for cartoon crushes for a lot of us. Loved the reaction Cody!
Considering how her character is like in the novel, I'd say she's even a much more improvement....
One of the rare instances where the movie is better than the book.
I'd say they're very different from each other to be considered their own works.
Even the author of the book liked the film (and wrote a lesser-known sequel book, based on the film).
@Fynn the Fox:
Nah, even the author of Who Censored Roger Rabbit admits that the movie is better, and when he was offered the chance to write a sequel novel, he based it on the movie version of the story instead.
@@Rocket1377 Exactly. That's where Judge Doom's origins as a concussed Toon who mistakes himself as a real villain named Baron Von Ruthless came from.
Lot of fun stuff about this movie.
This movie was the last project that Mel Blanc did the voices for the Looney Tunes.
Bob Hoskins’ son didn’t speak to him for two weeks because he thought his father worked with bugs bunny and didn’t introduce him.
The ‘Dip’ they refer to is essentially film dissolver, based on the ingredients listed.
The reason why alcohol affected Roger the way it did was because back in the day, animators would wash their brushes in alcohol.
When WB and Disney did this movie together, they made a deal that each of their popular characters would not outshine each other. That’s why Mickey and Bugs, as well as Donald and Daffy, have the same screen time and number of lines.
The toon villain is really known as Baron Von Ruthless, a toon gold in color that perfected disguises and played villains, earning the nickname ‘Toon of a Thousand Faces’. One day on set, the toon suffered a concussion and believed he was a real villain and began committing crimes.
Love this movie so much; I could go on with fun stuff. ❤
The facts about;
Mel Blanc
The 'Dip'
How Alcohol affects Roger
And the Warner/Disney deal are interesting.
The part about Hoskins and his son, and the 'Origin' of Judge Doom, are.... Unusual to me.
I have a fun piece of information for you: Hot Shots pokes fun at many movies, Top Gun mainly, and there's a scene Romada, wearing a red dress, comes out and sings during a beautiful piano song, which I think pokes fun at Who Framed Roger Rabbit (WFRR) "Why Don't You Do Right?" scene.
@@JadenMoon1475 The Judge Doom origin was from a comic. Personally, I think it misses the point, we're not supposed to know who Judge Doom really is. It's like telling the Joker's true origin story.
@@fynnthefox9078 That origin of Judge Doom was from one of the sequel books loosely based upon the film once the author of the original _Who Censored Roger Rabbit_ book felt that the movie did better than his original story, so he wrote two sequel stories based around the film rather than his original novel.
The mel blanc fact is incorrect. He voiced the looney tunes in at least 2 more things after this: daffy ducks quackbusters, which was the last movie he did, and was a compilation movie with new linking footage, and then he voiced them a final time in a TV special the year after.
The best thing about Betty Boops cameo is that they got her original VA for this movie, before she passed away
The one that voiced her in this movie did not die until 1998.
Something interesting you might notice if you rewatch this movie, Judge Doom never touches the dip. He wears gloves when putting the shoe in, and avoids it in the bar. It was a nice subtle hint of what he actually was.
Same with Christopher Lloyd choosing to not blink whenever Judge Doom is on-screen & a mysterious gust of wind blowing his black cape behind him, even though this defies the laws of genuine physics & only works using cartoon logic.
RIP Bob Hoskins
I wanna live in a world like this (cartoons with humans)
You and me both
Maroon says, a lot of the toons on screen are half the cast of Fantasia. It’s an early Disney film in which classical music is set to golden age Disney animation with minimal storytelling to give a visual experience to the music. The Dance of the Hours sequence involves animals like Hippos and Ostriches dancing ballet.
I wish he got the dinosaurs too
The reference to Harvey is based on the movie Harvey (1950) about a 6ft imaginary rabbit.
At 8:44 Donald actually calls Daffy a 'dog gone, stubbern little....' don't worry a lot of us thought the same thing XD.
One of my all time favourite films.
I've always love how this movie mixed-up the live action and the cartoons and made it so believable, more incredibly made before the CGI age. I don't think any film has matched this ever since.
Who Framed Roger Rabbit won four Oscars for Best Visual Effects, Best Film Editing, Best Sound Effects Editing along with head animator Richard Williams winning Special Achievement Award.
Even today in the industry they call it “bumping the lamp”, a reference to the handcuff scene, when they talk about making details consistent so the interaction between animation and live looks realistic. Just watch the shadows in that scene. It’s honestly impressive
Unlike Space Jam, here the concept of animated cartoons makes sense in the context of the universe, in particular Eddie's views and motivations. In my opinion, the sequel to Roger is Zemeckis' most desirable project, the script of which has been repeatedly rewritten.
True
Yeah, in Space Jam... They just exist.
The huge thing about this movie was that Disney and WB only agreed to have their cartoons in the same movie if they had the exact same amount of screen time.
That's why we get scenes with Mickey and Bugs together, or Donald and Daffy Duck
And also _Peter Pan_ fairy sidekick Tinkerbelle (she was used as the mascot for _The Wonderful World of Disney_ Sunday movie re-airings of classic Disney films & as the visible representative for the Disney theme parks) and stuttering pig Porky (whose iconic "T-t-hat's All Folks!" tagline often ended several _Merrie Melodies_ / _Looney Tunes_ cartoon shorts).
Judge Doom’s gloves weren’t so he could keep his hands clean when he killed the shoe. It was so the dip didn’t hurt him.
Not many know this but the stuff in the dip is also toxic to humans.
@@charlieretro It burns, yes, but it's not fatal to humans like it is to hand-drawn Toons, because DIP (acetone, turpentine, and benzene) is paint thinner & ink remover.
A noir murder mystery set in a world where toons are real and live and work alongside humans... one of those ideas that must've sounded even crazier when it was proposed. The concept later got adapted into an entire animated series with Bonkers. Judge Doom definitely scarred a lot of young minds back then; an evil homicidal toon who hates laughter and wants to wipe out his own kind.
I'd love a Roger Rabbit animated series. With Charles Fleischer returning as Roger himself. We did get some shorts, but that's it.
His name is Yosemite Sam he is/ was one of me and my grandfather's favourites I'm proud as a 21 year old to have been showed the cartoon oldies by my grandpa.
And note that the case with the gun and bullets was a gift from Sam for keeping him out of the 'hoosegow'.
@@majkus Ha I knew it was from him but I did not know why lol love his slang and thank you for telling me.
Roger was a nice character to me laughter is a great thing, the one thing catcher then sadness is laughter.
Who Framed Roger Rabbit is an absolutely iconic masterpiece! especially because it's one of the few films made that was a collaboration between Disney and Warner Bros!!!
One thing I love about this movie is how much they tell you without even saying anything. In the opening scene when Eddie watches Roger film his latest cartoon they show us a lot. 1. Eddie angrily saying toons shows he has a dislike for toon characters. 2. Eddie taking a drink from a flask shows he has a drinking problem. 3. Eddie putting the drink in his gun holster shows he cares about his drink more than his own life. and 4. Eddies whole disposition shows he doesn't want to be at Maroon Studios unless he absolutely had no choice to be there.
Ah man, it been two months since I rewatched Roger Rabbit! This granddaddy of live action and animation will never go out of style. The Rescue Rangers film proved that not too long ago.😉
I remember watching this movie as a kid man did I get a laugh when my mother and grandpa watched it with me and I can hear them muttering 'This is a kids movie?" especially when Jessica Rabbit came on the scene this is one of my favorite Robert Zemeckis films next to Back To The Future I can watch them all day and month given the chance lol great reaction Cody seeing you watch this was an absolute joy thanks for starting my week off with a bang my man
Hearing an adult say 1988 was before he was born... I feel old... and I was 2 in 1988.
😂 I was 4! So by the time this was on VHS, or rather, by the time we recorded it onto a VHS with our VCR.. it became one of my brother and I's favorites. Of course half the jokes went over our heads, but we loved it anyway! But yeah, always makes me feel old when younger people react to stuff from the 80's and 90's and mention that they weren't even born yet!
I was 6! I saw this in the theater with my parents, and after we recorded it off the Disney channel, we used to watch it all the time.
I was 28! This movie came out shortly after I met my wife, but before we started dating.
Lol I too was 2 in 1988
No.. it wasnt a kids movie. It was for the baby boomers that grew up with these cartoons, both on TV and shown in theaters. But kids like me loved it, became we got not only the cartoon references but the Noir tropes.
This was released through Touchstone Pictures, Disney's sub-studio in the '80s and '90s for movies with an intended adult audience. They also did movies like Splash, Good Morning Vietnam, Dick Tracy, What About Bob, Ed Wood... and The Nightmare Before Christmas, which Disney now retroactively sticks their own logo onto every time they re-release it, as if we won't notice 😆
A love letter to noir mystery films and the golden age of animation.
Fun fact Doom’s glasses are so reflective that you can’t tell that he doesn’t blink
2:16, He's a Cartoon Character (or TOONS as they are called in this film), so it is possible for him to try stretching his Limbs and Ears like that.
This is my big brother's favourite movie. Even got a tattoo of Rodger.
Always fun to watch. I've read comments on other channels that mention that the judge never actually blinked his eyes open and closed. Hinting that his eyes were fake. As well as his teeth and face.
Charles Fleischer actually showed up to the set in costume so people could visualize Roger better
As well as turning into a car when visualizing Benny.
@@fynnthefox9078 Someone's seen the Nostalgia Critic video
I'm not bad, im just drawn that way. such a classic line.
This movie is a true marvel for one thing it's one of, if not, the only movie to have both the Warner brothers iconic cartoons and disney cartoons on screen at the same time
Who Framed Roger Rabbit is a classic, breathtaking, and nostalgic mystery suspense thriller with an added dose of comedy that shines brightest thanks to the antics of the animated characters and their chemistry with the flesh-and-blood actors, and it's on of the only few instances where some of the most beloved and iconic cartoon characters from Disney and Warner Bros were actually able to appear on the same screen together in a crossover movie long before Marvel and DC even started to hit the ground running with their characters. Thanks for uploading it, @TotallyCody !
This movie firmly set in my mind just how dangerous a Toon can be. Judge Doom was a frightening opponent.
Fun fact: This is the first time Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny interact with eachother
Before there was Space Jam, Cool World, Looney Tunes Back in Action, Cartoon Network's Re-Animated (not to be confused with the Horror Movie with a similar name), Out of Jimmy's Head, Space Jam 2: A New Legacy (still better than the first Space Jam film), and Chip & Dale Rescue Rangers The Movie, we had Who Framed Roger Rabbit!
And seriously, who would be CRAZY enough to hate this movie right now?
I Know that I don't.
Someone with no sense of humor?
@@fynnthefox9078 Makes sense
Donald say "Gosh darn stubborn little..." the n in stubborn kind of blurs with the i in little.
"That's a tire! What?" He asked if either of them had a spare. So Buggs literally, gave him one. It's a hilarious pun.
Apparently, the reactor hasn't seen enough cartoon shorts to recall the classic Toon gag.
My dad told me it was from Tex Avery.
I always loved Jessica Rabbit’s scene when I was little…Now as a RAGING 14 year old Bisexual,it turns out I was actually attracted to her😂😂😂😅
I mean who wasn't? 😂
I’m a firm believer that those who are unsure of their sexuality should watch her performance. I guarantee they’ll know the answer by the end of it.
@@popsiclecheese4256 just cos you fetishize something doesnt mean everyone does
@@whatismylife8100 Me
@@whatismylife8100 Most guys had sexual awakenings thanks to Roger's buxom wife. Girls being attracted to her too is a surprise, but not an unwelcome one.
I remember seeing this movie when I was wayyyy to young to be seeing it. It came on the tv and my mom saw and just shrugged it off and walked away 😂
I love this movie so much it's one of my top 10 films!! I love Roger & Jessica rabbit. The ride in Disneyland is fun & I have a Jessica rabbit pin. I know people are over Disney doing unnecessary movies & sequels but I can't wait to see Jessica be a detective and be the main star.
The toon in 13:19 is called Yosemite Sam
this is also the first time Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse share a screen, and it was only allowed if they got the same amount of lines and screentime
Seeing how the title of the movie is " Who Framed Roger Rabbit", I would have to say that it would have to be Roger who is they think did the murder. That character was Yosemite Sam by the way. Also The shoe is voiced by Bart Simpson.
No. Yosemite Sam is the western Toon villain with the oversized mustache & southern accent ("My biscuits are burning! Fire in the hatch!"). He was the one who gave Eddie valiant his Toon gun and the stereotypical caricature bullets as a thank you for the alcoholic detective rescuing him from prison ("Thanks for busting me out of the hoosegow!").
Yes, the title "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" gives away the fact that although Roger's buxom wife Jessica was forced by boss R.K. Maroon to take those saucy "pattycake" (clear-cut euphemism for sex as well as a literal visual gag) pictures to blackmail the owner of Toontown Marvin ACME into selling Toontown to the studio head to keep Toontown from getting destroyed, because Cloverleaf (featuring Judge Doom as its primary stockholder, this eponymous business purchased the preexisting public transportation system & entered a short-lived partnership with R.K. Maroon in an attempt to acquire Toontown, but when that failed, the Maroon Studios boss was shot dead whilst Eddie was interrogating him) deliberately bought out the Red Trolley Car in order to dismantle it (effectively pressuring Los Angeles residents to buy their own cars once the public transit was no more) and wanted to own Toontown in order to DIP it away & subsequently pave over its land with the Route 66 freeway.
THE live-action/animated hybrid film that showcased animated characters beyond Disney. It also proved it’s an 80s classic with its Academy Award wins from the very rarely used Special Achievement category.
Bob Hoskins is a legend as Detective Eddie Valiant as well as the versatile Christopher Lloyd as the formidable foe Judge Doom.
This movie is extremely funny Roger rabbit is also very funny. There are some characters from the fantasia movie in here along with some characters from Warner brothers studios.
Jessica Rabbit reminds me a Red Hot Riding Hood from Tex Avery’s animations.
She was possibly inspired by Red
There will never be another movie like this one.
Cody's reaction to this movie is so freaking hilarious 😂😂😂. When I saw he was watching this movie, I had to watch this!
There oughta be an omigod counter in one corner.
Yeah, Cody really thought this was a kid's movie. Just because there's cartoon characters that doesn't mean it's necessarily for kids. The strong sexual innuendos, the deaths, the jokes, the tobacco and alcohol use.
"This is Scary and Funny!" | Goosebumps Reaction | Slappy is Terrifying
The thing about this movie is there are some references and motifs used here that was also used in Robert Zemeckis’ other film Back to the Future. For example:
- the use of a magnifying glass to look for a hidden item in a photograph.
- the disappearing ink fading out is the same “ripple effect” used whenever someone is being erased from existence.
- the tunnel to Toontown was used again in Back to the Future Part II.
- Christopher Lloyd stars in both films and even mentions a significant speed of a vehicle.
The movie is rated PG. The language isn't really edgier than in Back to the Future, or Forrest Gump; it's just that because it involves cartoon animated characters, people tend to expect a movie that's a bit more kid/family friendly.
14:52 - the sugar daddy WAS the guy with the hand buzzer. He's the one who was killed.
Yeah, Marvin ACME.
And again, this movie like those are examples of hard PG.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but the one in charge of the animation was the one who did Thief and the Cobbler? Man was/is amazing. I think he might’ve died. Even if he never got to finish his magnum opus, his work on Roger rabbit is truly amazing.
Richard Williams
I love this movie, but watching that little shoe get dipped scarred me as kid
I always wondered what happened to his twin.
this movie so ahead of its time its amazing even holds up well today.
40:00, this was nightmare fuel for kids back in the 80's!
I remember the first time I saw it. Those eyes were revealed, I was scarred for life.
So many little details
You knew what to expect Eddie’s character to start as within ten seconds and one word.
You wonder why and get an answer, but it’s not made an in your face exposition.
You see how the story uses the toons as an allegory for racism. The ink and paint club is the best example. How many patrons are toons? How many employees are human?
You see that despite hating toons, he’s still polite and nice to Betty.
You see why that is when they pan over his brother’s desk, as his brother kept a Betty boop doll.
You see just in that transition, no words needed, that he used to love working with toons, and bits of his past.
It keeps going on, and you see plenty of chekov’s guns established. You see how much effort the animators put in, how much the actors did to help make that effort worth it…
I’m rambling, but this movie compacted a lot into it, was a marvel and to a degree still sets a standard of quality, and really emphasizes how much can be done with ‘show, don’t tell’
And through a few lines, they convey what qualifies as attractiveness in toon minds. The super attractive drawn toons are usually lower, if they can’t act as funny. Jessica is the lucky one in the relationship to get married to such a funny guy as Roger. But Roger does genuinely love her back, considering he was willing to run into a desperate situation armed to save her
Omg my favorite movie as a kid!😮
One of my favorites Cody! 😊 what a treat!! ❤
12:55 that timing tho
Dip is a combination of benzene, acetone and turpentine, which when combined make paint thinner.
Paint thinner & ink remover.
This is my favorite movie!!!
Without this, I would not be a big animation fan as I am today
Edit: The Looney Tune you were blanking on is Yosemite Sam
My dad recorded this on VHS with PREDATOR and Honey I Shrunk The Kids.
Before Bob Hoskins played Eddie Valiant, Harrison Ford, Kevin Costner, Michael Douglas, Tom Hanks, John Travolta, Bruce Willis, Richard Gere, Charlie Sheen, Emilio Estevez, Tom Selleck, Jeff Bridges, Nick Nolte, Kurt Russell, Sylvester Stallone, Matthew Broderick, Sean Penn, Kevin Spacey, William Hurt, Mickey Rourke, Christopher Reeve, Michael J. Fox, and Eddie Murphy were considered for the role.
David Bowie, Tim Curry, Sting, Peter O'Toole, Christopher Lee and Eddie Deezan were considered for Judge Doom.
The film was a box office and critical success making $330 million dollars against a $50 million dollar budget.
It won 4 Oscars:
Best Visual Effects
Best Sound Editing
Best Film Editing
Best Achievement Award for Animation.
I was so excited to see this come up, I grew up with this movie! But I had to pause after you said you are in Denver. I'm an hour away! What a small world, love your vids!
This movie is in my Top 10 films of all time. So amazing at leaving context clues for the users to find and classic cartoon gags as plot devices. And of course the amazing casting and massive library of famous cartoon characters.
No, this wasn't a kids movie. It just had kids characters in it.
Dude! This is basically my all time favourite movie I really have a thing for crossovers
When Christopher Lloyd says, "I'm looking for a murderer.", it is reminiscent of Elmer Fudd saying, "I'm looking for a wittle gwey bunny wabbit."
He even approaches the sound of Elmer's voice but stops short so it is less obvious.
Fun fact: Warner Bros. allowed Disney to let them have their characters in this film too, but the catch was they had to have the Disney characters have the same amount of time in the film as the Warner Bros. characters did. That’s why every time you see Mickey you see Bugs and every time you see Daffy you see Donald.
Noticing a lot of you don’t get the point of a catchy title? 😂😂 like it’s a PG movie and I thought it was for kids y’all need to chill out it’s not that serious 😅
There are evidence of how Doom was always a toon in disguise and if you closely you can see that he moves weird, his face looks fake, he doesn't blink, he avoids the dip and the fact that wind comes out of nowhere when it's blowing his cape
It’s alright. We understand
It's okay 👍👍👍👍🤩🤩
So glad you watched this! Was a childhood favourite 😁 x
The subplot of dismantled public transportation is actually true. It was discovered decades after it happened that the automobile companies bought up the red cars in Los Angeles County forcing everyone to buy automobiles. Since so many decades had passed, all the people responsible had passed away so no one could be punished.
If you've never seen Honey, I Shrunk The Kids there's a mini Roger Rabbit cartoon in the beginning, before the actual movie starts.
Here's an interesting fact:Tim Curry was originally going to play Judge Doom, but he was deemed to scary. And if Lloyd's Judge Doom got the reaction it did, I legit SHUDDER at what Curry's would have been like
Fun fact: Tom Hanks was optioned to play Eddie Valiant, but was busy doing other movies. 6 years later he plays Forrest Gump which was also directed by Robert Zemeckis
This is such a awesome movie
The scene where Valient hits the lamp is famous among animators. The scene was incredibly difficult to do because the light source swinging constantly affected the amount of light on Roger, as well as changing his shadow. The scene didn't have to happen the way it did--Valient could have not hit the lamp--but the directors wanted the cartoon characters to interact with the real world and physical objects as much as possible to make them feel as if the characters were real themselves. Therefore, the scene was done with the swinging lamp. There's now even a term among animators called 'bumping the lamp', which basically means going above and beyond with small details in animation, even if the audience will likely never notice it (like Roger's changing shadow).
Something Interesting is that Jessica Rabbit (who’s not a rabbit, she married a rabbit) is seen as the one who married someone out of her league since he’s funny. Toons should be funny, and Jessica isn’t (or at least it’s not her forte)
hey Cody i was thinking about try nightmare before , the parent tarp and maybe theTwlight breaking dawn 1 and 2
32:07 The only time in film history that Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny have appeared in the same movie together.
As a kid, the fact that Baby Herman had a ponytail with pink bow really confused me. Damn you, cartoon shorthand!
My favorite movie as a kid. I had Roger Rabbit themed birthday party when I was 6 with a custom Roger Rabbit piñata.
Judge Doom couldn’t untoonify his eyes. eyes are the window to the soul
To answer your question in the title.... NO, this is actually NOT a kid's movie, and it never was.
The movie was released on Disney's "Touchstone Pictures" branding line, which at the time was their subsidiary for more adult-themed releases. From the choice of novel they picked to adapt (and it's a very loose adaptation at that) to the obvious film-noir tone and setting, this is not a kids movie. Unfortunately by assuming it is, you seem to be falling into the "Animation Age Ghetto" trap of assuming that anything animated is for kids by default. Which is just a wrong line of thinking in general.
You know what’s funny is that besides the cartoon fantasy part this movie is basically historically accurate because they really did remove dismantled the street cars and trolleys all over LA and replaced them with highways and intersections just to save whatever it was and have more people as well
Great choice bro 😎😎😎
Yosemite Sam
Crazy how animation can be mixed with real settings and people
Two of the movies I remember VERY clearly from my childhood was this and Dick Tracy.
Bob Hoskins was also in actor for Mario in the Super Mario Bros. Movie from 1993 while John Leguizamo was Luigi.
How can you not remember Daffy Duck, Yosemite Sam, Twenty Bird,and Bugs Bunny from the Looney Tunes franchise
Maybe cuz I didn’t watch the looney toons franchise? 🤔
@@ItsTotallyCody okay. That makes sense.
@@ItsTotallyCody Doesn't matter. They're the mascots of the Warner Brothers animation division. EVERYONE should know who they are by default. Same with the classic Disney characters, too.
I was 8 when saw this movie in theater, everyone was so impressed.
They never did something like this ever again.
Space Jam, 8 years later, was pathetic compared to this movie.
5:00, You were expecting maybe Horton the Elephant or Undercover Elephant?
Just kidding.
Thanks for seeing this movie for me Cody love you! I requested this 💜💞
I personnaly think Who Framed Roger Rabbit is an adult comedy, but that's just my personal opinion on this movie. I work in animation and I don't really enjoy that people assume that animated movies are stricly made for kids. The first cartoons like Tex Avery and even the very first Mickey shorts were made for adults. There were tons of sexual and adult jokes in them. Nowadays animation is for everyone. There are tons of animated movies made for a more adult audience with deep and mature themes and storytelling (Princess Mononoke, Persepolis, Mary & Max, The Illusionist, or again The Congress). Unfortunately they are victims of the general opinion that animation movies are "kids movies"...
I wish people would think differently about it... 😔
Anyway, loved you reaction video and enjoyed your discovery of this masterpiece 😊
Me and my friends would talk about how much we loved this movie back in school
