Cartoons. It may be hard to believe, but before they were a stable full of dead horses being optimistically flogged by the Fox network, cartoons were once the masters of a vast entertainment empire linking the theater with the ever-important Saturday morning slot. Clearly animation has changed since the rule of Bugs Bunny and/or Mickey Mouse, but, thankfully, the past is beyond recovery, not review. That’s why today Magellans at the Movies will be reviewing Who Framed Roger Rabbit, a 1988 comedic mashup of animation and live action directed by Robert Zemeckis and based (sort of) on Who Censored Roger Rabbit? by Gary Wolf. Roger Rabbit was a big old hit for its nostalgic cartoon sensibilities and its groundbreaking special effects, and has gone on to enjoy a respectable share of nostalgia itself. What say the loony losers of the Midwest’s favorite film podcast? L-l-l-l-listen on to find out, folks!
