The things that they accomplished in this movie were not just groundbreaking, they were ground shattering. I would even argue that no one has done it as well as they did to this day.

[@DonovenGrey]

So was Cool World like the poor mans Roger Rabbit 😂🤣🐰

I mean, someone COULD argue with you about that.. but they'd be wrong.

[@northernpunx1978]

This is a masterpiece and a brilliant execution.

[@feintcircles]

I 100% agree with you, but I gotta say that the new Rescue Rangers is a very good effort on this style. I hope they decide to explore the concept more.

[@someTransChick]

@@DonovenGrey It was actually supposed to be a horror movie, but Good Ol' Corporate Meddling™ "fixed" that.

That cartoon shoe getting killed in the dip still upsets me to this day.

Such brutality inflicted upon innocent toon footwear. Absolutely horrific.

[@fynnthefox9078]

This movie is basically a love letter to the golden age of animation.

[@BigGator5]

"You don't know how hard it is being a woman looking the way I do." "You don't know how hard it is being a man looking at a woman looking the way you do." "I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way." Drink it in. You will never see another movie where Tinkerbell, Porkie Pig, Donald Duck, Daffy Duck, Micky Mouse, Bugs Bunny, and many others come together in one movie ever again. This movie is also a technical marvel. The hard work in filming live-action scenes and then animating them, is legendary. It's also beyond the scope of this comment. Fun Fact: Bob Hoskins said that, for two weeks after seeing the movie, his young son wouldn't talk to him. When finally asked why, his son said he couldn't believe his father would work with cartoon characters such as Bugs Bunny and not let him meet them. Real Science Fact: The dip that kills the toons is made of turpentine, acetone, and benzene. All are paint thinners used to remove paint and images from cels. Pause Button Opportunity Fact: When the toon train hits the Dip Machine, each window shows a murder or death taking place (if viewed frame-by-frame).

[@Anibunny]

I'M SCREAMING RIGHT NOW! Omg. I love pointing out to people that "Dumbo" HAS a name and I am so excited to hear you make that exact same point!

[@GenXDaddyO]

“Shave and a haircut, two bits!” is the famous 7-note ending riff used for comedic effect (hence why Roger couldn’t resist it). It’s also the famous door knocking sequence you use when you roll up to a friend’s door. Dat da da dat dat…dat daaaat! Also, nobody catches the joke that Valiant’s girlfriend drops at the movie theater, “I had to shake the weasels” which was a guys’ euphemism for taking a piss.

[@ShaunRF]

I was today years old when I realized this about the weasel joke. You ever take 30 years to get a joke? Because I did lol.

[@JStryker47]

Two bits is also a term that means 25 cents, which in those days, was what a shave and haircut would cost at the barber shop.

This was heavily promoted to kids, I remember bugging my dad to take me to see it. Dad explained all the adult jokes too. I thought the bear trap in Jessica's dress was funny as hell as a kid, but then dad tells me how that was a "booby trap" and I left my innocence under my seat with all that old popcorn that day.

“Oh, this ain’t made for kids, is it?” Not so much, no! Although when my sister and I saw it at a mid-week matinee (we were both out of work at the time and could go then), we were the only adults in the theater unaccompanied by kids. For so many of the jokes, we were the only ones laughing, since they flew way over the kids’ heads and the moms were too horrified to even giggle.

[@redpillfreedom6692]

After filiming ended, Bob Hoskins started having hallucinations because he spent so much of his screen time speaking to characters who are not actually there.

[@Wholesomewebs]

Jessica Rabbit had me feeling odd as hell as a kid. This film is great and underrated imo. The script is lively and the comedic timing doesn’t disappoint.

[@straker454]

Richard Williams was the director of animation for this and it's part of the reason the animation was so gorgeous.

[@SigRho1429]

I’m super ready for this one. The best blend of live action and animation EVAH! The lengths they went to when combining SFX and real sets is incredible.

[@rjbalbuena7789]

There are 3 other Roger Rabbit cartoons that you can still watch if you're ever interested in more. They're 10 minutes each but they all took years to make. Richard Williams was known for being such perfectionist with his animations that's how the movement is so fluid and the lighting is near realistic. And never will we get another legendary mashup like this again. Studios weren't beefing then and weren't caught in their own self righteousness when they made this. Also you can see Eddie Valiant as a drawn cartoon in just a few frames during the taxi chase scene ( :

[@secondbestjojo1300]

I think the studios were pretty much the same way they are today just that they weren't doing so hot back in the 80s especially Disney so they probably couldn't be too picky

[@drewbear1969]

LOVED this reaction! Roger, Jessica, Baby Herman, and Benny were original for this story, but the rest were either existing licensed characters, or generic characters made for the film. And kids went to this, but it wasn't marketed to kids, a lot of those adult jokes and comments were in the commercials, like "I got a 50-year-old lust and a three-year-old dinky." I doubt there'll ever be anything like this. As a teen who still appreciated animation as a medium, this was definitely pure joy to watch in the theater. This film was so revolutionary, it took franchise crossovers and the combination of animation and live action to a whole new level, as well as reinforcing that animation wasn't strictly for children's entertainment while paying homage to the animation pioneers. Zemeckis said he wanted Disney's animation, Warner's characterization, and Tex Avery's humor. It really was made for an older audience at that time, not just the more grownup themes, but the nostalgia factor too.

[@gamesmoney1025]

Really? I didn't know those 3 made their debut in this film. I thought they were already existing characters

[@philliplozano7587]

Like heck it wasn't marketed to kids. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3yVZKGYe9iYadE

[@legionaireb]

Roger, at least, originated from the novel this movie was based on. Although the Weasels are original characters, they were heavily inspired by the weasels from Disney's The Wind In The Willows.

[@drewbear1969]

@@legionaireb Right, Roger, Jessica, and Baby Herman were characters in the novel _Who Censored Roger Rabbit?_ although it seems like Benny's character actually wasn't in the book, or at least wasn't a cab. That part I'm pretty sure is unique to the film. It's been a very long time since I read the book.

[@jflaugher]

To answer your question about the "Shave and a Haircut" song. "Shave and a Haircut" and the associated response "two bits" is a seven-note musical call-and-response fanfare riff popularly used at the end of musical performances, usually for comedic effect. It is used melodically or rhythmically, for example as a door knock. And "two bits" is a term in the United States and Canada for 25 cents.

[@Cre80s]

This entire film was a late-80s love letter to the golden era of cartoons. It was amazing that they were able to get all the studios to agree to pitch in, like they KNEW what it was going to be. It was for us Gen-Xers all the way up through the Lost Generation, since they were the old fogies in the early cinemas who saw cartoons being born. It was a loving tribute to the entire era, set at it's peak in the 40s, and wrapped up in a film noir-esque who-dun-it. It's so cool that you were legit wondering if Roger was an an actual cartoon from the real past, which shows how successful they were at creating a generic "all in" lead cartoon character. And if this movie was marketed directly towards kids, yes and no. I don't think the ads and promotions the studio created were, they were aimed at us Gen-Xers, and kinda our parents. The fact kids were sucked in was more the overall hype machine and word of mouth. There were lots of kids in the theater, and yes, they were scared here and there, but the 80s was the time of "kids can take it." I was a teenager by the time it peaked, so of course I loved it, but even when I was a kid, I appreciated shows directed at me that expect me to take a little bit more than I was comfortable with, to flex me. I think many, many Gen-Xers felt the same. Like Jim Henson said, he felt that children liked the idea of being scared and that this was a healthy emotion for them with which to deal. I can't imagine how boring childhood would be without all the images of things that scared me in the moment. This movie is not only an endearing tribute to the golden age of cartoons, it also is a marker when they were all finally dying, traditional animation. Just a few more came out, and even those had key moments of computer animation, which was regarded as "cheating", which I found unfair. Good is good, bad is bad. There's been plenty of shitty traditional animation and worthy computer animation. It’s a case-by-case basis, and computers are just a fancier pencil, and the hands in control of it is what counts. Anyway, great reactions to a great film of a great tribute to a great time in yet another great time.

Charles Fleischer, the voice of Roger Rabbit was Terry in Back to the Future 2. The old dude in the future who gave Marty the idea to get the sports almanac when he mentions going back to place money on the Cubs. He was also the mechanic in the past who cleans the manure out of Biff's car.

The novel is called "Who Censored Roger Rabbit" and in that Roger is a professional comic character and Jessica is a very lifelike commercial actress who people feel challenged to emulate rather than insulted through her physical approach toward human perfection.

[@MrJoeym78]

Roger Rabbit was absolutely groundbreaking for an animated film in 1988 and helped create new paradigms for the entire movie industry, impacting how live-action and animated films alike are made today. JL, as always you reaction was hysterical and pure. Hell, there was even a jump scare that I didn’t know even existed. You even managed to throw in the classic “dirt sniffer”.

10:10 The theme of the toon world is that being funny matters more than anything else. Making people laugh is more important - and attractive - than looking good. That's why Jessica praises Roger so much.

Roger Rabbit is an original creation for the film. The use if ACME in the opening cartoon is an easter egg, since the movie is a tribute to classic cartoons. Disney and WB characters in the same movie. The movie also pays tribute to 1940's nior. Holds up beautifully.

NOTHING like this could exist today. they wouldn't spend so much time and money for one thing.. and they would never make a movie with cartoons in it that has a plot that's centered around a toon killing a human; by dropping a safe or piano on his head no less (which is a brilliant writing touch btw). i mean maybe they would but they sure as hell wouldn't have mickey mouse or bugs bunny in it.. much less together

21:55 "Shave and a haircut, two bits!" This is the tune that you hear at punchlines in old cartoons. Bump, bada bump, bump... Bump bah! It is a comic song performed by Milton Berle in 1939--Shave and A Haircut, Shampoo--and refers to the price of a visit to the barber before World War II. Two bits is a quarter--people used to cut coins in half to have that value of money: a hay penny would be half-a-penny and one bit would be half-a-quarter, worth 12.5 cents. A pre-war shave would traditionally cost 15 cents and a haircut would cost the same, 30 cents altogether. Get a shave and a haircut at the same time for a quarter and you save five cents. I read a book from the 1950s many years ago, I don't remember what the book was, but a kid sings "Shave and a haircut, six bits!" which indicates the rising cost of living after World War II.

[@flubber1557]

I like to think that the bad guy judge doom was a weasle toon under the mask. Thats why he had the same crazy red eyes. I think he was supposed to be like the most deadly weasle but his voice got in the way so he wore a mask and changed his voice when he spoke. You could hear it when he told the detective how he spoke when he killed his brother. I think as a toon in general, plus with his voice no one would ever take him seriously so he deemed the disquise and made the dip to get revenge. He wanted success outside of being a toon hence the want for the freeway achievement.

[@pleutron]

one of my little brothers was about 6 or 7 when this came out on VHS. oh dear god, we had to watch this movie EVERY DAY for like a year before he "grew out of it". I liked it the first couple of times. But then I hated this movie for about 10yrs. Now I enjoy it now and then... like today :)

They had to get permission to use the toons from all the different companies to allow all of them to be in the same film. The only stipulation was that they had to share screen time with each other. That is why you see Daffy and Donald and Micky and Bugs Bunny in the same one as well with each other. This won several awards including best actor for the main character who played the detective who was the drunk who cracked the case. It was a masterpiece

Excellent reaction to this, it was a classic in my house growing up. I have to agree with people in the chat that Cool World should definitely be on your list in the future. God bless you with excellence!

Bob Hoskins had one of those "every man" faces. He was also extremely British, which blew my mind then, and continues to today. The only other movie I can think of, that he was in, is Hook. Of course, he was a very well-known actor, on both sides of the pond, at the time of this movie's release.

This movie was the very first date I went on with my wife back in 1988. And no, it was not marketed as a kid’s movie. 😂 And it practically swept the Oscars that year. It was pretty much a perfect movie. And keep in mind they didn’t have CHI back then, so the actors literally had to interact with nothing but air whenever they were interacting with a toon. Great movie and reaction. 👍

R.I.P. To Bob Hoskins

I saw this when I was five, the only part that messed with me was the weasel clinging to his soul leaving his body to stop himself from dying. I saw it on Thanksgiving day while having some pie. It's a nice memory Needless to say, making this movie was a minor miracle, getting all the licenses lined up and everybody being cool with each other. It was a once in history film To note, the Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers movie that came out last year takes place in the same universe, though it is not nearly as good as this and has many modern sensibilities, but was still a fun watch

34:03 Definitely nightmare-inducing, especially for an 8 year old. Even at 56 I find this genuinely terrifying. What a great villain, though, huh?

House with a secret passage? I see you are a man of culture, as well; that has long been one of my life goals. It'll happen one day, even if I have to commission an urn with a false bottom in it to dump my ashes in. It's a secret door, it counts.

Anyone else visit Disney World when they had the Roger Rabbit footprints leading to the ACME warehouse? 😊

This film is the only movie in cinema history where we get to see Mickey Mouse AND Bugs Bunny on screen together.

I watched this when I was little and it was disturbing. The poor little shoe that Doom killed, Doom being rolled over and then him melting, WHEW! It was scary but I still loved the movie and watched it repeatedly. This may have been one of the first movies that turned me into the horror-thriller buff that I am and its a weird thing to realize that now.

[@fynnthefox9078]

That shoe hit a cop in the crotch. May have been unintentional, but still, assaulting an officer.

[@collinmiller4721]

The death of that shoe… is one of the most traumatic things ever put onscreen. Like… it messes me up every time.

This movie was the first VHS tape I owned. Before that Christmas, VHS tapes were sold to rental stores only and the prices were crazy high to match the amount of money the tape would make over time. I remember seeing an ad in a magazine selling the movie Ghost for $100 on Valentines day. This movie and Batman '88 were sold for the low price of $20, which made them an affordable Christmas gift. Watched it so many times I wore the tape out.
