This movie takes place in 1947 and all the cartoon characters represent those up to that point. The story is supposed to be a political satire on an actual historical event, but Disney washed out most of it. Have to take a step back to understand. Originally travel by horse-drawn vehicles was not much faster than on foot, and a lot more bone-jarring. (Cobblestone paving, although expensive, was a BIG improvement over dirt and mud.) With the development of railroads in the early 1800's came street railways, with horse-drawn vehicles, riding on smooth rails. By the end of the century, these street cars had been electrified - in other words, trolleys. This revolutionized traffic within populated areas and allowed the development of the "modern" city. Trolleys traveled roughly 10-15 times faster than carriages or on foot. So instead of taking an hour to get five miles to the downtown, the downtown could drawn on an area 100x greater. With this potential influx came all sorts of activities that required a big customer base - department stores, giant theaters for vaudeville and then movies, professional sports events like baseball games, restaurants which served a la carte. The problem is that the trolleys were all privately-owned, and therefore paid taxes and had to make a profit. In the 1930's, GM, Standard Oil, and one of the tire companies, set up holding companies in different cities to buy up the different trolley systems. Los Angeles had their well-known "red cars" as accurately depicted in the movie. The intent was to force the trolleys out of business so people would use buses, or better yet, individual autos. This is not fringe conspiracy theory - in the 1950's, this cartel was found guilty, but only fined $2,000 - basically one car's value. But by then the damage had been done. Robert Moses and other city planners of the 1930's deliberately used the new highway system to cut off the downtown area from impoverished minority areas, often called "coontown" as a pejorative insult, where those "crazy people" lived (in the film, Toontown). (Other examples of this racist development, overpasses were made too low to clear buses.) Hence Judge Doom's desire for a freeway, which around WWII, was unknown, along with its resulting urban sprawl. The downtown where people gathered because it was "the place to be" (as sung by Petula Clark - "Downtown" - in 1965) became the neglected abandoned "inner city." (In Back to the Future, the bustling 1955 downtown of even a small town like Hill Valley was replaced with marginal businesses, in favor of shopping malls.) A good book to discuss this is "The Geography of Nowhere" by James Kunstler, who begins it by saying Roger Rabbit is "based on a true story." Despite the happy ending in this film, in reality, Judge Doom's plan was put into place.
Wow thanks for that! What an extensive explanation of the correlation between the themes in this film and the real history of city planning and transportation at the time! I appreciate you laying this all out for me! I enjoy that there was a whole other layer to this film I wasn’t aware of!
Makes me think of a George Carlin bit, where he was talking about how "only a nation of un-enlightened half-wits could turn this beautiful American landscape into what it is today... a shopping mall. Mile after mile of mall after mall"
One might notice how Doom acts very theatrically throughout. A toon in human disguise, he has to constantly suppress his frantic toon impulses and adopt what to him must seem like very understated modes of expression. But there's always something that isn't quite right about him -- a strangely stilted way of talking, and sometimes maybe even a peculiar way of moving. Inside the disguise there is an evil toon that is constantly struggling to get out, and yet also constantly struggling to restrain himself enough to be passable as a human. But in the end he does release his true nature, and we learn how creepy a "funny" toon can really be.
You’re right there was definitely something off about him throughout the movie. I also noticed later in editing that when they are in the bar, after he tries to dip Roger, they spill the dip all over the floor and Doom quickly backs away so he doesn’t get it in his feet. I thought nothing if it at the time but in retrospect, he was a toon and would have melted!!
6:53 - THANK YOU for laughing at that line. I think the "dropped a piano on his head" is one of the most hysterical lines in the movie, and nobody seems to appreciate it. 😆
I love WFRR. I lost count how many time I watched it way back in the 90s. "Shave and a haircut...... TWO BITSSSSS!!" The old guy collecting money for the Hill Valley clocktower in 2015 BTTF part II and as a young guy who cleaned Biff's car in 1955 did Roger's voice. Plus in 2015 there's a Roger Rabbit doll in the antique store. R.I.P. Bob Hoskins (Eddie Valiant)
There was a character mentioned during this scene 21:21, I think, when Judge Doom asked the barfly about Roger and he replied something about "Harvey" and had is arm up around an invisible person. In case you didn't get that one, "Harvey" (1950) was a popular, Academy Award winning comedy movie about a 6 ft. tall invisible rabbit! Maybe! Josephine Hull won a well deserved Best Supporting Actress award playing Jimmy Stewart's older sister, and she was very funny. It's a movie you might enjoy and was so popular back then that "Harvey" became kinda iconic, and Harvey was also referred to in "The Shawshank Redemption". Shawshank is one you should definitely do a react video too, if you haven't seen it yet. This was a most interesting movie alright! If you'd like to see Christopher Lloyd in his very first movie check out "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" (1975) starring Jack Nicholson. Enjoyable video you did here Tara. ✌😎
I did end up cutting that little moment out of my RU-vid cut for time, but I do remember the man at the bar joking that Harvey was there and motioning to an empty seat! I did actually know that this was a reference to an old film about an invisible rabbit, although I have never seen it, I think it must have been a huge success because it’s something I just remember knowing about as a kid haha I should add it to my list!
@@TaraTunesIn be sure to bring tissues and to check if you don't suffer from anxiety, that particular movie doesn't hold its punches when depicting depressing or stress inducing moments.
Did some googling. Jessica Rabbit in real life would be 6′0″ in three inch heels (5′9″ without heels), have a 19.5 inch waist, 40FF chest, 38 inch hips, have a ridiculous waist-to-hip ratio of 0.53 The penguins at the club were from Mary Poppins
Hahaha wow!! She would probably break in half at the waist and fall over… good thing she was a cartoon!! I thought they might have been! Love those guys!!
Awesome reaction! Something that came to mind with the scene with Donald and Daffy Duck was how much of a mindblow it was to see a Disney character and a Loony Tunes character on screen together and interacting. It's not as unheard of now, because Disney owns so much now and can put just about anybody together and kids probably wouldn't bat an eye. When this came out, it was like a kid's imagination come-to-life. Oh and your expression at 29:10 was hilarious! lol
🤣🤣genuine shock at that woman’s face loll I can imagine how exciting it was to see al these characters come together!!! I found it remarkable even now!! Thanks for watching with me! I’m glad you enjoyed the video :)
@@TaraTunesIn One BIG part of the deal to be able to get the iconic characters from both studios was that none of the character from one studio could have more screen time than the other, so you always see them in pairs (Donald & Daffy), (Mickey & Bugs), (Porky & Tinkerbell). etc. [Tweety and Yosimite Sam were alone, but so were Fantasia character at the beginning and the Goofy movie playing at the theater.]
There is a "making of" this movie out there somewhere, I remember seeing it when this came out. It was very interesting, seeing how they achieved all the tools interacting with the real physical things.
@@TaraTunesIn the one specific thing I remember about it was the penguin (I think) serving drinks in the club where the tray of drinks was real, was done with a metal pole that was bent like his arm so they just animated over the pole. I hope you get to see it somewhere. It *might* be on RU-vid, not sure.
@@zmarko that’s so awesome, I will be searching for it shortly! I love learning how they improvise things in movies!! I’m often surprised at how makeshift things are haha
HeyTara, so glad you watched this classic and took us along for the ride. The more you watch Rodger Rabbit, the more you realize just how incredible and mind blowing the effects work is. You notice all the little things they do to help fully immerse these cartoons in the 3D world. They specifically focused on highlights and shadows to match any cartoons were in with reality. A dude hands Roger a real glass of alcohol. Jessica Rabbit physically touches Eddie and *moves his coat* and *slides his necktie*. I mean this movie is simply a master class in animation and lighting technique.
I agree it was pretty incredible the way they melded reality and cartoon! I did comment on it during the scene in the bar when Donald and Daffy are having a piano concert/fist fight - Donald shoots a cartoon cannon and blows a real hole in the piano and it made me start watching for moments when real and animated are seamlessly intertwined! I had to cut the comment because if time :( but it’s in the full-length reaction on Patreon :)
The shoe that Doom dipped was a criminal in Doom's eye. It did kick the ambulance attendant in a very bad region to be kicked in, causing the gurney to collapse
Trivia: The tunnel to ToonTown is the same tunnel that Biff and Marty go through in Back to the Future II. It's been in several other films. The tunnel is on Vermont Canyon Rd. in Griffith Park in Los Angeles, CA., less than a mile from the location of the Bat Cave from the 1966 TV show.
One misconception about this movie was that Disney Animation was responsible for the animation. While they did start the project, and assist heavily on the production, it had been in development hell for years. When Spielberg and Zemekis took it over, they realised that Disney wasnt equipped to handle the style.of animation they had in mind.. which was a combination of Warner Brothers, MGM (Tex Avery) and Disney styles. Richard William's, a Canadian animation prodigy, had his small studio in England and has been doing commercials and movie title animation for years... and had been privately making his own elaborate feature film, the Thief and the Cobbler for over 20 years at that point. The roufhcut of that film got Williams in the door (the animation in it is mind blowing), and his experience with animation over live action (with a moving camera) cinched it. Most movies with animation had a non moving, locked down camera so the perspective of the action stayed the same. Richard told them to shoot it like a regular film and he'd figure out the perspective.. they said "won't that be a lot of work".. he said "yeah.. its gonna be a ton of work... but I'm not lazy.. this is what I do". It still blows my mind that a tiny indie studio beat out the behemoth that Is Disney Animation.
Director Robert Zemeckis has publicly said there was never a Roger Rabbit sequel because some Disney executives hated the Jessica Rabbit character's representation of women. Political correctness killed Roger Rabbit's cinematic future.
Walt Disney did live action/animation blending as early as the 1920s (check out The Alice Comedies) Roger Rabbit's such a huge technical achievement because it's so convincing, and the talent of the actors like Bob Hoskins are a big part that, and the directing. It's worth noting the inferior knock offs that came later like Ralph Bakshi's 'Cool World'...which is like a b-budget demented twin of Roger Rabbit with an M rating. Then there's Space Jam, which is big budget and well polished but also pretty bad.
No film has mixed animation and live action this well, before or since. However, there were earlier films that mixed animation and live action (such as Mary Poppins, as you noted) and also later ones. Most notable among the later ones is Space Jam (the original 1996 version with Michael Jordan). Space Jam isn't the same sort of masterpiece that Who Framed Roger Rabbit is, but it's still fun.
I have heard of Space Jam as well but it’s not one I ever watched! I know it was a big hit among my friends as a kid though, so I should probably add it to the list!! Thanks!
Robert Zemeckis is doing a live action/2D show for HBO Max called Tooned Out about a guy who goes looney and starts to see cartoons. It was announced when HBO Max launched in 2019 but no official word about it since. Hopefully it won't be too much longer.
9:26 Good question - I agree w the fan theory that toons value being funny as the most attractive quality in another toon, not how 'beautiful ' they are. That's why he's so popular -- and why Betty Boop unexpectedly says to Eddie about Jessica Rabbit: "what a lucky girl!"
Omg! I had no idea this was a book!! I looked it up immediately! That’s pretty cool!! I always wondered who was responsible for orphaning Bambi!!! That explains it 🤯
Actually, Warner Bros refused to let their cartoon characters appear under the Disney label - so, Disney released the movie through Touchstone Pictures (which Disney owned) in order to please Warner Bros.
It's a real shame we'll likely never get another Roger Rabbit film, or another movie like this in general (and even if we did, it likely wouldn't be as good as this) due to how Disney is now. This film will go down in history as one of the greats.
Watching your reaction to this movie Tara was simply captivating. It's like you became a little girl again. Your eyes just filled with such wonder, just as my eyes did when I saw this movie back in 1988. Thanks for watching and giving us your joy.
Thanks for watching with me, and for your lovely comment :) Honestly, I love watching these lighthearted films! It’s fun to open my mind and really experience it for the first time, it allows me to feel like a kid!! :) I’m so glad you enjoyed the video!
@@TaraTunesIn I'm sure you do. we were all blown away when this movie came out. Hey to build your channel, why don't you do a cross-channel movie watch with your sis and amazing reactor, Jen. I watch her stuff all the time.
Lovely reaction, Tara. Things to know: Everything Roger says is true. Everything. The whole buying up of the Redcar in order to shut it down actually happened at this time. Disney only agreed to allow their characters in this movie because they had been virtually bankrupted by the film Black Cauldron - incredibly expensive to produce and an utter flop (it's pretty bad). Popeye isn't in this because King Features refused to take part. There'll never be another Roger Rabbit.
In an ideal world, The Lego Movie franchise would be a place for mixing characters from different studios together again. It only has DC superheroes, but obviously Lego also has Marvel sets, and it would fit the theme of how kids mix together things that don't normally go together. I suspect that a line from The Lego Movie 2, "Marvel won't return my calls," suggests that they really wanted to. Curious that the first movie included some Star Wars stuff. Maybe that had already been arranged before Disney bought Star Wars.
Live action and animated movies. 1977 Pete's Dragon. 1992 Cool World. 1996 Space Jam. 1995 Casper. 2003 Looney Tunes: Back In Action. There have been several movies that have combined live action and some type of animation. Casper would be considered CGI and not animation though.
8:37 "Oh, _she_ knows what she's doing." Oh, yeah. Like they say in showbiz, always leave them wanting more. Jessica is _extraordinarily_ good at that.
There is a theory that the toon underneath the Judge Doom mask was former Maroon Cartoon star "The Pistol Packin' Possum", perhaps driven to insanity by jealousy that his spotlight got taken over by Roger Rabbit. Though the only credence to this theory is the fact the pistol is the same, and the Possum's eyes were also a shade of red. Plus there was only one Possum poster in RK Maroon's office, while there were several Roger/Baby Herman posters, implying the Roger/Herman duo became far more popular. But again, this is just a theory, and has not been confirmed by Spielberg, Zemeckis, Disney (and its subsidiary, Touchstone Pictures) or Warner Bros.
@@TaraTunesIn indeed it would, especially when you see just how many Roger Rabbit/Baby Herman posters there were in that office. In fact, I highly recommend a second watchthrough of this film just to catch all the easter eggs :D
@@k1productions87 oh I’m sure I will rewatch this one at some point, there was sooo much to look at and so much happening in the background, similar to the back to the future movies!
Holy crap the bed, batman! I saw the movie when it came out, I've rewatched it once or twice in the last 35 years, but now I've watched and rewatched different reactions. Joanna Cassidy deserves a lifetime Academy award for her performance in this film. She absolutely inhabits this world, her character's humanity, and her love for Eddy Valiant. The story is so finely crafted, and the performances by the humans are immaculate. Rewatch this movie and pay attention to Joanna's performance. Incredible.
Hi Tara really enjoyable reaction to a very fun movie although I haven't watched it in years, anyway the actor playing Eddie is British actor Bob Hoskins who has starred in some fantastic films such as Mermaids 1990 with Cher and Winona Ryder, Hook 1991 with Dustin Hoffman Robin Williams and Julia Roberts as Tinker Bell, Hook is the reimagining of the Peter Pan story but is a lot of fun to watch, he also starred in another animated film directed by Robert Zemeciks called A Christmas Carol it stars Jim Carrey Gary Oldman and Colin Firth, but that film is fully animated there is no live action in it at all, Bob Hoskins was a very versatile actor and starred in many different genres of films.
Thanks so much for the info!! I have seen Hook actually, I loved that movie as a child, but I didn’t put together that Eddie is the same actor as Smee!! This makes me love Bob Hoskins even more! I love that he was in so many whimsical and fun films :) I suppose I should check out Mermaids and A Christmas Carol! Thanks for watching!!
Bob Hoskins worked hard in this movie. He said that it left him in a very weird mental state afterwards - he spent so much time in the movie talking and interacting with characters that weren't actually there.
One of Charlie Fleischer's (Roger, Herman and Benny) earliest acting gigs was a recurring character on the 1970's sitcom WELCOME BACK, KOTTER, playing Carvelli, the antagonist rival of the other students.
I love this movie too and I seen it when I was little and it's my favorite movie from my childhood and it's a good movie but not funny about this movie and it's still a good movie but not funny about this movie and do you agree with me about what I say right
This film was ground breaking for its time especialy considering all the cartoons are hand drawn not computorised as they are now. Its small little things that you miss the first time. Like when Roger goes to sit in the chair as he lifts himself up his hand wipes away the dust on the back rest. when a cartoon weasel splashes Eddie with real water. Also Roder smashing real plaes on his cartoon head. Genius.
funny thing, the vaudeville act Eddy put on, a slight foreshadow came in back when they panned over his' brother's desk, the reveal they were kids of a circus clown.
Keep in mind all the FX here are 100% analog. No computers. They shot this movie twice... once with puppet and paper stand ins, and once with "nothing".. this was not only for eyelines but also for shading references... since every single frame of animation had to have shadows and lighting added (again, painted by hand). Bob Hoslins (Eddie) had to use his imagination while acting to nothing so much in this movie he started to hallucinate toons.
@@TaraTunesIn there are several great docs about it on RU-vid.. but heres a quick before and after for the Toontown sequence. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-u_VnHAy1Vdc.html
Great reaction, Jen's sister. One of my favourite films, cos it's absurdly silly, just like me. LOL. A little bit miffed that we didn't get a 'Great Scott' outta you at Christopher Lloyd's appearance.
1. First time I saw this was in the middle of the ocean. My ship (USS Tripoli LPH-10) was doing a Tiger Cruise. That's where crew members could bring "male only" family/friends to join us from Hawaii to San Diego. There were displays set up on the hanger bay. For entertainment there was an area to watch movies. This was one of them. 2. There had to be equal time for Disney and HB characters. 3. To make it as realistic as possible they sometimes had to hand paint the shadows. 4. One of the cartoon bullets is the voice of Pat Buttram. He played Mr. Haney on Green Acres. 5. The tunnel going to toon town is the same one used at the end of Back to the Future II. 6. This was Mae Questel's/Betty Boop third to last gig. Her last was Christmas Vacation. (RIP) 7. "One too many edibles man" 🤣 8. Favorite character is the Baby🤣
The voice actor for Betty Boop in the 30s and 40s reprised the role--you can also see her in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, where she recites the Pledge of Allegiance and sings the National Anthem.
Among the many references, when Roger is entertaining in the bar, and at the end when Eddie puts on that musical number, the name of the song (as seen on the machine) is "The Merry-go-round Broke Down" -- which is, in fact, the track name for the Looney Tunes title theme song. (The other well-known theme song, used for Merry Melodies, is called "Merrily We Roll Along")
15:11 "How the hell did _you_ get in here?" "Through the mail slot." "Anybody know you're here?" "Nobody. Not a _soul_ except, uh..." _"Who?"_ "Well, you see, I didn't know where your _office_ was." 🤔 You couldn't look in the phone book?
Greetings from New Jersey. I remember seeing this one. My sister took me to see it. It was the summer of 88 and the year I started 4th grade (Man, I’m Old….LoL). This is indeed a classic and still memorize the dialogue from beginning to end. And yes, I do remember kind of having a crush on Jessica Rabbit, which is still weird. LoL. Glad you finally got to see this one. And May I just say; how absolutely gorgeous and lovely you get in every one of your reactions so far. Keep up the great work 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️
@@jarrodnewman0514 Yes, of course! I LOVE Mary Poppins! And I know there were some other films that combined animation and live action before this one as well, but I felt like this film just made it look very real! Maybe it was just the difference between Mary Poppins having the people enter an animated world (like when Eddie goes to Toon Town) vs having animated characters existing in the real world that made it look so different? I imagine both films were considered groundbreaking for their time, but I do see your point considering Mary Poppins was decades earlier!
Go watch an old Gene Kelly movie called"Anchors Away". I think it was the first live action movie to incorporate animation and live action elements. The Dance/actor Gene Kelly acted and danced alongside Jerry Mouse. That movie was done back in the 50's. I loved that there were cartoon characters across the whole spectrum of different franchises. If you are a fan of Christopher Lloyd go check out Star Trek II "The Wrath of Khan" he played a klingon.
@@TaraTunesIn Hope you get a chance to see some of the behind the scenes featurettes. It’s a technical marvel Zemeckis pulled off here. And to think he’d pick _Back to the Future_ right off where he left it the following year is insane. He was unstoppable in the 80s. (I also highly recommend _Romancing the Stone_ with Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner.)
Why would a Toon want to kill every other Toon? Answer: Because he wasn't as funny or popular as all the other Toons, and he wanted to eliminate them all so that he would be the only Toon people would notice and love.
38:34 "I have not seen another film, except for _Mary Poppins,_ that melds together live action and animation..." You may want to check out _Bedknobs and Broomsticks._ 🤔 And the original _Pete's Dragon._
This was definitely on of my favorite movie as a kid, we had the vhs 📼 the movie was funny and and then scary when the judge brought out the Dip thing got dark.
When this movie came out traditional toons on the big screen were dying and Zemekis saught to give the genra once last hoorah. He even hired tons of former Disney animators to work on the movie. They knew it was threir last chance at glory to everyone went all out to make this an epic masterpiece. Including had drawing all the cartoon character in all the scenes. Which was mind blowing to even comprehend.
@@TaraTunesIn It did take ages to make. Probably 2 years of animaton, but Zemeckis hired a thousand Disney animators to make everything happen at 10X speed. Plus tons of them werre out of work so they were thrilled to be brought into the experience.
8:51 "Man! _That's_ probably the sexiest cartoon character, ever." You may want to look up _Cool World_ from 1992. It's not quite as popular, but that's not saying a whole lot.
“All the times ya yanked my ears?” My sister and my favorite line after seeing this in the theater. We went to a mid-week matinee where we were the only adults unaccompanied by children
And we were the only ones laughing at most of the jokes, because they went over the kids’ heads and the moms were horrified at the adult humor. For the rest of the summer, we would use that line out of the blue.
Great choice for Easter! The Jim Henson company (famous for the muppets) made fantastic films around the 80’s. There is an unofficial trilogy of movies I’m suggesting to all the reaction channels I watch everyday, the first two are famous films and the third is a hidden gem. The Neverending story (1979), Labyrinth (1986) and the secret hidden gem, Mirror Mask (2005). While technically The Dark Crystal (1982) could be considered in the same style, using puppets to create magic worlds can be a lot for a young person to enjoy during our modern age of cgi. These first 3 are more like ‘Alice in Wonderland’ stories, while The Dark Crystal (1982) is deep sci-fi and a little slow to follow but super cool to watch.
Hi there! Thanks for these suggestions! Unfortunately, I have already seen the movies you mentioned! I watched the Never Ending Story a lot as a kid, although I may do a rewatch of it sometime as I can hardly remember it! The Labyrinth and Mirrormask I saw as an adult, both good, but also very strange movies!! I have never seen the Dark Crystal. It may be something I visit on the channel down the line! Thanks for watching! :)
I think cartoon attractiveness has to do with humor. You're attractive as a cartoon if you're funny and Roger is the best of the best, so Jessica is seen to be lucky to marry him. To human eyes, human attributes are attractive but I suppose that Jessica wouldn't be a very popular cartoon in toon town because she isn't funny and looks more human. That's why she's popular at her job in the HUMAN showing. She's loyal to Roger because he respected and loved her before she became popular with humans. No one probably trusted her too because of how shes drawn. So she'd dump her career if it meant that her husband's name is cleared.
Aw that’s a great point!! I never considered that if toons consider comedy to be the most respectable thing, Jessica may not have been a very good catch at all to them! Almost like Roger was marrying down.. very interesting!!
Great reaction. There is another movie with Michael Jordan in it called "Space Jam". If you have not see that you might have fun doing a reaction. Humans and toons together like this was.
If you like Christopher Lloyd as a villain, you might like to watch Star Trek III: The Search For Spock. It is, however, sort of the middle of a trilogy, as II, III and IV hang together.
Yea!! I was going to suggest this one to you. So glad you did it, very fun. Hey, check out Dick Tracy from 1990. It feels very much like a comic book but it’s live action. They went all out on makeup to make a lot of the mobsters look cartoonish, it’s awesome. It stars Warren Beatty as Dick Tracy along with Al Pacino, Dustin Hoffman, Madonna, Mandy Patinkin (from Princess Bride, the Spaniard), Dick VanDyke, Cathrine O’Hara and so many more.
Ah I remember seeing this film when I was little and to this day I'm still wondering how they managed to get a load of different cartoons like Disney ones WB ones and a whole lot more I've probably never seen another film like this accept for one called space jam. Hi Tara hope you had a good Easter I saw the egg at 20:12 glad you enjoyed the movie sorry I saw it late I had computer issues and feeling a bit ill but luckily I still managed to see the new vid.😊👍
I’m so glad you were able to come by and watch it and I hope you feel better soon!! Good eye on the Easter egg!! I really liked this one and I do think it’s one of a kind, you’re right, there will probably never be another film like it!
Bob Hoskins said the film really affected him mentally - the exertions of playing against someone who wasn't there As for Easter Christos Anesti ("Χριστός ἀνέστη" )
@@TaraTunesIn No. Scottish ancestry. Australian. But Greek Orthodox convert hence the user name based on John Chrysostom - meaning 'golden mouth' because he wrote so much good stuff The late Bob Hoskins was such a versite actor
This is a great reaction. You seem a lot more perceptive to a lot of things in this movie than most reactors, and I love it. One thing, and trust me its minor, but im the kinda person where when i notice something i cant stop noticing it, is that throughout the video i can hear a fan, maybe its a desk fan, a room fan, maybe not a fan at all. Whatever the whitenoise in your background is was driving me crazy once i noticed it (which was near the end of the video, so it didnt ruin my experience) id recommend investing in a better noise canceling microphone if and when you can afford it. A minor complaint, overall a great video though. Edit: Youve only got 10 vids and under 1k subs, so i cant blame ya for it at all. Just a future investment if you plan on doing this for awhile. I didnt even notice you were such a low sub channel because of the quality i just assumed you were bigger. The mic is literally my one and only complaint
Hi there!! Thanks for your comments, and for watching with me!! I do appreciate your advice about the fan. It is actually the fan in my laptop. I watch the movies on the laptop, and have nothing else running, but my laptop is SO old and slow that it chugs along loudly through the whole thing. :( Trust me, I’ve noticed it too, and have tried to edit it out in post but I know the solution will be better equipment. You’re right, my channel is pretty new so I haven’t worked up to getting new stuff yet! But that is probably the first thing I will do; noise cancelling mic and a new laptop!! Someday :):) but as long as you all can stick with me through the background noise, I’ll get there!! :)
21:45 You are the first reactor, I have seen, who recognizes this reference. 33:13 Bob Hoskins is great in this movie....he does not look like but physical comedy is one of his type of acting...recommend my guilty pleasure Super Mario Bros and many other his movies...can you imagine, the most of his screen time he acted with nothing around himself?
