It is amazing to think it has been 25 years since Who Framed Roger Rabbit first burst onto cinema screens, not only because I still have vivid memories of seeing the film as a child but because it hasn’t aged a day in all that time. Robert Zemeckis’ film is often remembered for its groundbreaking technical achievements and the novelty of seeing Disney characters rubbing shoulders with classic Warner Bros. toons, yet the real reason it has endured is simply because it is a great story brilliantly told. Technical wizardry and novelty gimmicks age quickly; great storytelling is timeless.
As concepts go Who Framed Roger Rabbit is a killer - set in a world where humans and much loved animated…
I've always struggled keeping an all time favorite film. It was something I realized around the time I started getting into the more mature side of film talk/viewing that, for awhile, I didn't really think about what my real, all time favorite film was. Like, the one set in stone.
Hell, even in the last two years of properly getting into the more underground side of the medium, my favorite film of all time shifted between literal months (going from "Monsters Inc", to "Pulp Fiction", to "Synecdoche, New York", to "Moon").
I don't know exactly why. I guess it's because my tastes keep evolving into new discoveries of different loves in various different types of films (especially during last year),…
This film really holds up, but I do not know why that woman thought Roger Rabbit would be a good babysitter. He's really well-intentioned, but patently unqualified for the position. That aside, it was quite swell.
Raise the roof movie fans for this groundbreaking phenomenon! For the first time ever Walt Disney and Warner Brothers cartoon characters shared the big screen in this technical marvel combining live action and animation!
I was tickled pink by its raucous and semi raunchy nature! When buxom Jessica Rabbit croons onscreen your eye's won't be the only thing going BOING!
Bob Hoskins was absolutely amazing in this!
Nothing like watching your favorite movie with some long time friends. Happy 30th Anniversary, Roger. Thanks for making us laugh throughout these many years and the many to come after.
This is, and always will be, my childhood in a nutshell.
As a kid, I used to watch this religiously. Not only was this one of the first films I'd ever seen, it's also one of the first films (might have been the first) that ignited my passion for cinema. I just loved everything about it and I still do. A lot of that has to do with just seeing all of my favorite toon characters in one film. Imagine how blown away my mind was seeing not only Daffy Duck and Donald Duck in one hilarious slapstick scene, but also seeing just two of easily the most iconic animated characters of all time, Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny. It…
O primeiro filme que teve sucesso ao misturar humanos e cartoons de forma realista.
A história divertida e os ótimos personagens também são destaque.
I know that this movie is a classic. That said watching this 30 years later there are a definite amount of cringeworthy moments in this movie. Bob Hoskins is fun to watch. RIP Bob Hoskins.
I forgot that the knocking song was "Shave and a haircut", replied with "Two Bits". It's so synonymous with knocking that you forget the origin. So at least I re-learned that. Thanks Christopher Lloyd.
And that Judge Doom death scene. Face palmy.
My childhood memories treated this film much better than my adult sensibilities.
30 years later this film still looks great. This possibly has one of the most convoluted plots for a children's film.
Créatif et ludique, WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT s'amuse énormément avec son concept et n'a pas peur de l'amener aussi loin qu'il peut.
One of the more bizarre Disney movies, and that's saying something. Nice blending of animation and live action (not that it hadn't been done before), kind of an adult storyline.
Nowadays,when we see this kinda films which combines 2D animation with real people,it's pretty extraordinary and interesting.And,this is the reason why this film truly impresses me a lot and I'm pretty willing to watch this film again and again.Just like Mary Poppins,Disney sometimes tried to make this kinda films.Use the technology which they made their animations before to make this kinda films,sometimes it's a pretty good choice.Though sometimes they will face some challenges,but if they make it,it'll be so special and attractive.
Hyped for Mary Poppins Return.
This was our secret movie for the Alamo Top Brass celebration. I am not a huge fan of animated movies, so I definitely would have preferred something else. Just not my thing.
