Just sayin.

Maybe they will just reveal that Peter Griffin and Homer Simpson are played by the same Toon actor.

How about these duel ideas featuring animated characters!

B.O.B from Monsters Vs. Aliens has a keyboard duel with Mike Wazowski from Monsters Inc.

Bender and Lumiere the candleman try to out suave and out chef each other for Jessica Rabbit’s affection.

Robot Santa and Jack Skellington have a sleigh race to take over christmas.

The Jetsons and The Flintstones try bowling.

Homer Simpson and Peter Griffin participate in a beer drinking contest with Hank Hill as referee.

okay-how bout this? since cartoons don’t age, you set it in the present or the not-so-distant-past, at a time when the 3d’s were just starting. you can still keep your classic characters but mix in your newbies. maybe that could even be the plot, kind of a conflict between generations. let eddie go down in history as the hero he was, maybe highlight all the great things he did after saving roger and start with a new hero, possibly his son or even grandson. maybe even give a classic like betty boop a 3d makeover, like it could be all the rage, like our liposuction or facelifts. by the way, rodney, you’re doing a great job keeping up all these posts. you and john seem super-busy, but the site still looks great.

The movie had a lot of satirical jabs at present day hollywood. It was an excellent script, I look forward to seeing where they go with the second one. I also love their dialogue about talking up the “freeway”

Incorporating the 3-D characters with 2-D characters is a great idea, but it doesn’t make sense if the movie takes place in the same time period as the original. And I’m not sure if Who Framed Roger Rabbit makes sense in the present day, so I’m not sure that idea should be pursued.

People shouldn’t forget that as awesome as the film was and as cool as “toon town” felt, the film was, aside from it’s fictional elements, not a horrible period piece! The film would not have been anywhere near as interesting if it wasn’t so good at mixing the reality of when those characters were first made with the cartoon toon town.

To this day, I love the gag from the beginning of the film when Hoskin’s character boasts about how awesome the LA public transportation system is and how people would be crazy to want to get rid of it. For those who knew how great LA’s public transit was way back when, compared to what it is today… that’s a really funny line. I’m an urban politics geek, so I think I’m in the minority of people who actually got that joke =p

Eddie Valient was a pretty physical character…I don’t know if Hoskins is able to do it again at his age. I predict the pairing of a young detective like what was done with Labouf and Ford in Indiana Jones. Maybe Valient has a son with Dolores?

I wonder if anyone from Polar Express, Beowulf, or his new Christmas Carol will show up.

I think the need the popular cartoons of today. And they happen to be 3D. Maybe they could do a story where the 2D charecters are being forgotten and show how they react to that. The villain could go around killing 3D charecters.
