Can't believe it's 36 years old.

Having originally (and repeatedly) watched it on scratchy video tape, it can't be worse than that lol

I've actually never watched this all the way through. Only bits and pieces back in the cable days where you'd start halfway through. Maybe I'll give it a go.

I literally just watched this YouTube video yesterday, comparing the film to the original novel it's based on (titled, Who Censored Roger Rabbit?). The original story is way different! Disney basically rewrote almost everything for the film, save a few characters' names.

Ohhh, interesting! Never read the book, but t yeah, very different. Makes me think it's time for a retelling remake made by Villaneuve.

I didn’t get it as a kid, but it’s so clearly a metaphor for the decision to build freeways through marginalized communities that happened in real life. Thanks for posting this here, I hadn’t seen this movie in probably 15 years, and it holds up really well. Too bad there wasn’t a real life Eddie Valiant back then.

This movies background is amazing. How they created all the effects was groundbreaking. I love watching the clips of the behind the scenes for scenes like the dish throwing where they created animatronics to handle the actual physical props, and then painted the cartoons over it.

It's also amazing to me that no one drew shadows on cartoon characters in films until this movie.
