    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Since the movie was being made by Disney's Touchstone Pictures, Warner Bros. would only allow use of their biggest cartoon stars, Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, if they got as much screen time as Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. For that reason, they were always in pairs, such as the piano battle between Daffy and Donald and the parachute scene with Bugs and Mickey. This was continued with Porky Pig and Tinker Bell at the movie's ending.
    • Goofs
      Some of the Toons living in Toontown were not created in the real world until after 1947. In the movie's world they were already living in Toontown, and not "discovered" until 1949, 1953, and the other years when they made their specific debuts.
    • Quotes

      Jessica Rabbit: You don't know how hard it is being a woman looking the way I do.

      Eddie Valiant: You don't know how hard it is being a man looking at a woman looking the way you do.

      Jessica Rabbit: I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way.

    • Crazy credits
      Porky Pig closes out the movie telling the characters "That's All, Folks" and then saying the same thing to the viewers. Tinkerbell then appears fading the entire screen to black.
    • Alternate versions
      Some versions include an extra sequence (called the "Pig Head Sequence"): Eddie Valiant had gone into Toontown, ambushed by the weasels and had a pig's head "tooned" onto his. He went home and took a shower during which Jessica walks into his apartment. This scene was cut from the original release, but did appear in theatrical trailers and a television broadcast. A scene cut from the theatrical version where Jessica rolls up her dress to reveal her stockings as she sits cross-legged is included in this sequence.

    technical marvel and a great comedy

    Who Framed Roger Rabbit is one of the zaniest and smartest movies to come out in a long time..Directed by Robert Zemeckis who later did Forrest Gump and Castaway among others, it stars Bob Hoskins as a washed up private eye in the 50s who gets dragged into a murder investigation in Toonland to help unravel a mystery and prove the innocence of a toon Roger Rabbit.

    One of the real treats of the movie is Kathleen Turner who does the voice of Jessica Rabbit..She is a perfect choice with that sexy sultry voice. The movie is great fun for the whole family..there is a little innuendo but like Jessica says.."I'm not bad..I'm just drawn that way"

    A real treat! Holds the record for most credits at the end of a movie (937!) On a scale of one to ten... 9

    • When Dolores loans the camera to Eddie Valiant, she brings up that the film hasn't been developed since the trip to Catalina. Eddie says jovially "we should do that again." Delores however looks despondent (or mealcholy). Why?
    • Does Donald Duck say something distasteful to Daffy Duck?
    • Is there ever going to be a sequel?
