the animation on who framed roger rabbit is some of the best ever so no, that wasn't the issue

yeah that's why it stuck in my mind. roger rabbit's animation director wrote that kickass animation book, he seems like a dude who knows his poo poo and he obviously took his job seriously with roger rabbit

and then chuck jones just comes and says "nah this is bad and wrong"

it seriously saddens me to see people who are genius like chuck jones and john k being so narrow-minded like this

On January 18, 2014 the Jamaican bobsled team qualified for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. They have described themselves as "Cool Runnings, The Second Generation." [10] In light of the team's qualification for the 2014 Olympics, Dudley Stokes, one of the original 1988 team and now general secretary of the Jamaica Bobsleigh Federation, said "I don't think the support for the team, like we've seen over the last three days, would have been sustainable without the ongoing appeal of the movie".[11] The team received funding from many sources, including one donation campaign held by the online community for the cryptocurrency Dogecoin.[12]

I like how they dropped this bullshit and now the rule of thumb is to just assume that every funny looking snake is dangerous as gently caress.

seriously there was a ton of people misidentifying false corals in the 90s. or they just assumed they were absolutely harmless idk

Fans of Sesame Street have complained that Elmo's prominent status has caused some older characters (such as Oscar the Grouch, Big Bird, Count von Count, Prairie Dawn, Grover, and Cookie Monster) to see greatly reduced roles.[11] Elmo has been referred to as the "Little Red Menace" by Sesame Street traditionalists[12] (cf. Red menace).
