Links: Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Tasha Robinson over at the A.V. Club compares Who Framed Roger Rabbit with its source material in a lengthy and enlightening feature called Book Vs Film.
Jeff Lange over at Jim Hill Media reminisces about Roger's ubiquity at the Disney Studios twenty years ago.
Well, it hasn't joined the pantheon of his Great Movies series but here is Roger Ebert's original four-star review from June 22, 1988.
Lastly, two weird bonus photos related to Roger Rabbit. First, some guy went to the trouble of envisioning what Jessica Rabbit would look like if she were real (his attempts at Homer Simpson and Mario are even creepier):
And a promotional image from the Walt Disney Company's 1983 Annual Report for the upcoming project:
