It's official: Who Framed Roger Rabbit' Sequel Script is Complete - Polidicks

[QUOTE]Speaking to MTV, Robert Zemeckis, director of the original film said, “I’m happy with the script, it’s very good. It’s written by the original writers.” Now he is just waiting for Disney to approve the project before they can commence shooting, saying, “[Disney] is still thinking about it.” Regarding the production of the movie, Zemeckis stated, “If I were to do the sequel, it would be done just like the first one. It would look the same way, but we would present it in 3D in its release.” The filmmaker also added, “I would do all of the animation hand-drawn; 2D, but using 3D tools. It wouldn’t be like Pixar 3D. It wouldn’t look like that … this would again be another period movie.” Who Framed Roger Rabbit? is set in a world where cartoon characters live alongside human actors, and interact freely with them in an area near Hollywood, named Toontown. The plot revolves around Bob Hoskins‘ Eddie Valiant, a private investigator who hates toons but is hired by Roger Rabbit, an A-list toon, who has been framed for the murder of Marvin Acme, but the film takes an unexpected twist as Valiant’s investigation progresses. When it was released, the movie was regarded as a groundbreaking masterpiece, as it combined live film with animated characters. Zemeckis has also discussed re-releasing a 3D version of the original.

Mixed feelings. I know they've got the original writers on it and everything, but I'm on the fence on how this could turn out.

How can a sequel to this exist? It ended just fine.

Many a kids' first boner.

I thought the project was abandoned in 2006, there was even leaked artwork that they were going to have CGI for the cartoon characters. Here is what Roger Rabbit was going to look like from the art leak: [IMG]http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b196/Starmenclock/roger_rabbit.jpg[/IMG]

[i]"Regarding the production of the movie, Zemeckis stated, “If I were to do the sequel, it would be done just like the first one.

Though at the same time the original Roger Rabbit did have alot of moments where if 3D were used it would look amazing so I guess maybe if it's like then it'll be fine

No. Just... no. What sequel? I have never heard of one, nor will I admit that one will ever exist.

Seeing Jessica Rabbit from that angle makes her look like a deformed titty monster. I'm not going to give an opinion until I know what it's about, though.

While the idea of a sequel makes me nervous, I like the thought of a new movie following the classic style that Roger Rabbit had. It would be a nice change of pace from the type of movies we currently have.

Please don't suck ass. Please.

Bob Hoskins said he would return as Eddie Valiant if there is a sequel

[QUOTE=Katatonic717;38696531]How can a sequel to this exist? It ended just fine.[/QUOTE] Been a while since I watched it, but it doesn't seem like it ruled out a squeal more than any other movie. It's not like making another Lord of the Rings book where they all decide to turn the boat around and have another adventure,

[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;38696707]Bob Hoskins said he would return as Eddie Valiant if there is a sequel[/QUOTE] Really? He refused for them to use his likeness during the Roger Rabbit comic book run.

2D Animation for rodger rabbit and the main characters or kill the movie now

This thread reminded my I want WFRR on Blu-Ray, and it seems like it's releasing next year for the 25th Anniversary. Betting we hear more about the sequel then if it progresses any further.

If they use CGi, they have to make it look 2D - like the characters were drawn.

Does anyone else find it interesting how this info was released right after Wreck It Ralph came out? They're both full of cameos.

Animated or no deal.

[QUOTE=T.F.W.O.;38697891]If they use CGi, they have to make it look 2D - like the characters were drawn.[/QUOTE] Cel-shaded, then? Like they did with the "Rocky and Bulwinkle" movie?

Originally Disney wanted a story abour Roger Rabbit finding his father who was actually Bugs Bunny. They planned to do the animation in 2D, but place CG over it. Here is the original test: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1QC2KMJndw[/media] Personally I think it lacks the same charm as the Richard Williams animation of the original. If they do a sequel I would love to see 2D return.

The fact that it was 2D cartoons is what made it special.

Not great, but not terrible either. Really though, I see so few traditionally drawn animated movies anymore, it'd be a shame to waste such an opportunity on CGI. I mean, for real though, why are there NO traditionally animated films anymore?? Look, I love CGI, but the market is so oversaturated. The last two films Disney did that had hand-drawn animation were Princess and the Frog, and Enchanted, which only had certain scenes with animation. I remember seeing the animated scenes from Enchanted and being open-gob astounded at how good the animation looked, because it wasn't since early in the past decade that Disney even touched it, and the technology grew leaps and bounds without anybody fucking seeing its full modern capabilities. Hell, Wreck-It Ralph had an amazing little animated short in front of it, and THAT looked even BETTER. What fucking gives, film-industry??? Why is a well-aged and perfected art-form now abandoned, and somehow RARER to see in feature-films anymore than fucking STOP-MOTION???

I really hope they don't do this with 3d CGI, the 2d drawing was part of the charm of the first one.

Also, remember that that test says it is from 1998.

The stigma against 2d animation is annoying as hell.
