  Yeah, this shit’s flawless. More goofy mysteries, please! I demand it! Bob Hoskins dancing is an all-timer. A critical piece of “annoying short husband/hot tall wife who likes him ‘cause he makes her laugh” representation.

  Looks great for the 80s but this would never happen in real life

  That scene with Donald and Daffy trying to kill each other is a landmark in cinema.

  The toons spit out real water.
  The toons reflect real moving light.
  The toons smoke real cigars.
  The toons tote real guns.
  The toons smash real plates.
  The toons look real people in their real eyes.
  These toons aren't just drawn on top of an empty space in an already recorded scene. They are interacting with and living in the real world.

  Completely, utterly groundbreaking. 100%, without a doubt, one of the most technically proficient films ever made. Pushes the boundaries of movie magic. Still jaw-droppingly impressive over 30 years later. This film is just pure craft and talent. Some of the best filmmaking I've ever seen.

  It also manages to be a fun noir with loveable characters, a love letter to cartoons, and family-friendly (even though Judge Doom scared the shit out of me as a kid) while keeping the adults entertained. I love it.

  save your breath scolding me for never having seen this and instead use that breath to scold me for thinking that her name is Jessica Rabbit, not because her married name is Rabbit, but because I thought she, too, was a rabbit, and in turn I spent half the movie being like, "okay, she's hot... but where are... the [rabbit] ears?" whatever. total technical marvel, a massive achievement in sound design, Hoskins is a literal genius. love the gag where he bends down to pull up his pants and knocks his head on Jessica's rack. a little too, uhh, for a lack of a better word, awooga-core(?) for me, but more than happy to finally fill this blind spot!

  if i had seen this at age 11 the Jessica Rabbit intro scene would’ve made me spontaneously combust. i would’ve imprinted on her soooo hard like thousands -maybe millions- of others. i could’ve been normal. instead, i watched Flushed Away, and now i’m married to a rat. call me BRAT RAT

  THIS is how you do horniness in a kid's movie.

  First time watching with an audience. All the Bob Hoskins stuff hit in a way that's easy to miss when you're watching it every day as a young child waiting for more of those evil weasels.

  Biggest laugh was during Jessica Rabbit's unbelievably sexually charged introduction scene when one guy in the crowd reacts to her and it sounds like he's actually cumming in his pants. It's amazing how fresh an audience can make a movie you've seen five hundred times feel. Wonderful night.

  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.
