    The deal between Warner Bros. and Disney was that there had to be an equal number of their characters with an equal number of lines. So for every WB character you see, you'll see a Disney one, too. During the battle of the ducks, Daffy has an answer to everything Donald says. Same during the conversation between Eddie, Mickey Mouse, and Bugs Bunny. It's the one and only time characters from the two studios have been onscreen together, yet another way this movie was groundbreaking. By the way, every effect in this film was practical - there was some computer work for the animations, but the rest was real. The FX guys rigged up all kinds of odd little frames and machines to film the real-life stuff that would interact with the toons, like the handkerchief that Jessica rubs over Acme's head during her song, or the splash when the weasel hits the water in Eddie's sink with his paw. Fascinating stuff was done to make this film come to life. :)

    One thing that just recently struck me about the handcuff scene:
    "You could have taken your hand out of that cuff at any time?"
    "Not any time. Only when it was funny!"
    If you consider that Roger is bound by Cartoon Physics, it's very plausible that he literally COULDN'T take his hand out of the cuff until such time as it would draw a laugh. He wasn't just being a smart-ass, he was limited by his nature.

    Fun Fact: The voice actor for Betty Boop was actually the same voice actor as the original Betty Boop from the 1930's, Mae Questel. 50 years later. She also did the voice of Olive Oyl in the Popeye cartoons.
    Also, Jessica Rabbit is the "lucky girl" because cartoons value humor, not good looks. Jessica Rabbit even says when Eddie asks what she sees in him, "He makes me laugh." That explains a lot of the differences in reactions throughout the movie of toons vs humans and why Roger Rabbit is so highly thought of in the toon world.

    "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).

      Yes, the making of this movie was so ahead of it's time, and it really is a beautifully shot movie. Looks better than the superhero, crap, CGI movies made today. It feels real. I've always thought movies from the 80's and 90's looked better than any other era. The animation in this movie just served to compliment the real effects and live actors and sets. Now movies completely lean on CGI. Quite frankly, I think the creativity of movie making is gone. CGI is farmed out and is a crutch. Movies back then were mostly physical effects, which took a lot of talent and creativity.

    So, aside from the interaction between the cartoons and the real life actors, the truly groundbreaking aspect of this movie was bringing so many intellectual properties together in one project. Disney Studios, as a prime example, stayed exclusively within their own walled garden and NEVER leased rights to their properties for any reason. This movie really got the classic animation studios into cooperation for the first time. Just seeing Donald Duck and Daffy Duck, or Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse, in the same scene together was entirely mind-blowing at the time.

    Droopy Dog was the dog in the elevator. Robert Zemekis was the director from Back to the Future..you were right-Doom was Doc Brown. They did all go in for the movie to show how Toons all are the same. It’s got so many one-liners that definitely go over the heads of kids which is why it was so much fun to go watch with your kids-it had humor and memories for the parents and was silly enough for the kids!

    "The Dip" is a nod to the production practices of many studios in those days. The final art for animation back then, was a painted transparent sheet called a cell. It took 12 to 24 frames / cells to make a second of animation, so they used a lot of cells, and cells cost money. The studios, as a money saving practice, used to wipe the cells of older animation clean for reuse. What did they use to do this?... A terpentine concoction, cleverly nicknamed "Dip" for the movie. Hence "Dip" kills toons. As for the Disney / WB situation... this was not produced by either of them, but the contract with them to use the characters was a bit crazy - the lead characters of both had to have the exact same amount of screen time - this is why Daffy and Donald were is the same situation together and same with Bugs and Mickey. It was animated by Richard Williams and his company. Williams is likely the greatest the animator of his generation and this product proves it.

    Great reaction. This film never seems to get old. The collaboration to put Disney and Warner Bros together was a long hard fight of negotiations. These animated film companies were somewhat bitter rivals since they were basically a duopoly of the industry. So each pushed hard to try and get a deal that would give them control or a financial edge. It almost didn't happen. There were a lot of celebrities doing the voices for the toons. David Lander(Squiggy from Laverne and Shirley) was the voice of the leader of the weasle squad(His character Is actually named "Smart-Ass")

    This movie is such a favorite of mine, especially when it came out. Even my parents liked it. It's like the cartoon version of Sesame Street and The Muppets. Bob Hoskins was so good in this movie. I didn't even know he was British until I saw him in Hook. He did such a great job with his accent. RIP Bob Hoskins 💖
    Also the voice of Jessica Rabbit is Kathleen Turner. She was in a lot of movies back in the 80s. The ones that I loved her in were the ones she did with Michael Douglas. "Romancing The Stone", "Jewel Of The Nile" and "War Of The Roses". Those also starred Danny De Vito. Maybe you both can react to those. 😎👍

    I remember some documentary on the telly about this movie, around the time the movie was released. This was a 3 year labour of love for Robert Zemeckis and the team. Needless to say, there wasn't a sequel - it was a huge undertaking for its time (and this project was sandwiched between the first instalment of Back to the Future, and the last two, Zemeckis clearly relished the challenge). The plot is not much to write about, but history was made with merging the cartoon characters of two major studios together. The Kingdom Hearts video game series is the only other I can think of that has done this.

    YAY!!! One of my all time favourite movies! Going for the popcorn now....😍🍿
    This movie was a Disney production but Steven Spielberg was an executive producer who managed to convince a bunch of animation studios (who owned the rights to all the cartoon characters in this movie) to let him "borrow" the characters. There were very strict stipulations as to how the characters were going to be used but they managed to get some of the greats! Just as an aside....that sparkly dress Jessica Rabbit wore in the musical number took them months to animate as all the little "sequins" were done by hand one by one. For its time the special effects in this movie were brilliant.

    Price and Seaman wrote two drafts of the script before Disney brought in executive producer Steven Spielberg and his production company, Amblin Entertainment. Zemeckis was brought on to direct the film while Canadian animator Richard Williams was hired to supervise the animation sequences. It was a very rare partnership. I know part of the contract was Donald Duck and Daffy Duck had to have equal airtime. It was the same with Mickey and Bugs Bunny. I love this movie. It one of my favorite movies.

    This was one of my favorite movies growing up. It's a real one of a kind, nothing was made like it before, and due to technology nowadays, we'll never see another movie like it again! I fantastic mostly kid-friendly detective-noir period piece about the real world dismantling of the trolley car system in Los Angeles to further the growth of the automobile industry.

    Christopher Lloyd played Judge Doom and was darn scary to boot. Great reaction as usual Asia and BJ!! Bob Hoskins (he played Eddie Valiant) also should have been nominated for Best Actor at the Oscars (he was awesome in this) and the film should have been nominated for Best Picture. It was a breakthrough and very creative ( and fun) movie. Thank you so much for reacting to this. This is one of my favorite movies.

    Often times, when movies are pitched that include other studio's properties, they usally just have to ask for permission. Most of the time they allow it as long as nothing negative happens to them, like getting hurt or killed. I think thats why you didnt see Mickey or Bugs around the Dip. Love watchin you two react to all these movies. Cant wait for the next :)

    Loved your reactions to this - BJ was on fire today! He was cracking me up with his one-liners ("She's not a rabbit"; "More like a fox") :) By the way, no discussion of this film is complete without acknowledging the work of Richard Williams, who was the driving force behind the animations. Richard passed away a few years ago and was a legend among animators. He and his London studio did so much work on commercials in the 1970s and 1980s that at one point you'd see their hand-drawn animation in pretty much every ad break on TV (at least in the UK, but it was known in the USA too I think).

    This was a film that was a once in an eternity deal where all the stars aligned and Warner Brothers actually agreed to have their characters appear with Disney characters as well as some characters owned by MGM, Paramount, and King Features Syndicate. It will probably never EVER happen again. It was truly an amazing time where everything just clicked and they actually said YES. This film was even selected for preservation by the Library of Congress.

  • @griffalo1013

    Betty Boop in the '30s and '40s was voiced by the same actor who did her voice in this movie - and you got to see her sing the National Anthem in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation!
    Robert Zemeckis previously directed Romancing the Stone starring Jessica Rabbit (Kathleen Turner); and the Back to the Future trilogy; and afterward, Bruce Willis, Goldie Hawn, and Meryl Streep in Death Becomes Her; Jodie Foster in Contact; Harrison Ford in What Lies Beneath; Sir Anthony Hopkins in Beowulf - and the following films, all starring Tom Hanks: Forrest Gump, Cast Away, The Polar Express, and Pinocchio (2022). The dog in the elevator, BTW, was Droopy.

    1. First time I saw this was in the middle of the ocean. My ship (USS Tripoli LPH-10) was doing a Tiger Cruise. That's where crew members could bring "male only" family/friends to join us from Hawaii to San Diego. There were displays set up on the hanger bay. For entertainment there was an area to watch movies. This was one of them.
    2. There had to be equal time for Disney and HB characters.
    3. LOVE the adult inuendo😈
    4. Christopher Lloyd as the heavy. 😎
    5. One of the cartoon bullets is the voice of Pat Buttram. He played Mr. Haney on Green Acres.
    6. This was Mae Questel's/Betty Boops third to last gig. Her last was" Christmas Vacation". (RIP)😇

    One of the funniest parts of this movie is, to me, the way they used old Film Noir terminology and turned it on its head. "Playing pattycake" was a euphemism for fooling around/cheating on your spouse, but in this movie, the term is literal because THAT is what would crush Roger. Lol!
