The Roger Rabbit video game...An underrated classic?

Does the Who Framed Roger Rabbit video game deserve the reputation as one of the worst games in history or is it actually not that bad? One reviewer has taken a closer look at it and see if the hate is warranted.

Roger Rabbit board game reviewed.

Roger Rabbit's video game wasn't very impressive, but is the board game any better? Not that much according to Boingboing.net. But fans of the film might wanna check it out anyway.

The Who Framed Roger Rabbit Bluray release

Daniel here.


I preordered the Blu-ray for Roger Rabbit in February, hoping for bigger things in store, not just the definition, but new things. I was hoping for everything to be sunnier in Toontown, hoping that with the movie back on store shelves, it would bring new fans. I still hope that.





But, there's some bits that you should know. If you want to know the special features besides the Hi-def versions of the three Roger Rabbit shorts, there's also the Before and After of Toontown feature, a thing explaining the Toon-stand ins, a commentary recorded years ago, and a few other things also from the 15th anniversary DVD set. Basically, the only difference is that it's in a better quality, the shorts were restored, and they put new menus and a loading screen with Roger's bowtie spinning.

And if you have both the 15th anniversary DVD set and the Blu-ray DVD pack, you basically have the same thing. The DVD for the Blu-ray is the first disc of the 15th anniversary set repackaged without the film reel look.

I have not lost faith in this set. Because of it I saw a few things I didn't notice before. Like, when Eddie Valiant is in the elevator, and it's speeding up, in one shot you can see an outline of The Road Runner, and a few seconds later you can see an outline of Wile E. Coyote.


With news of The Stooge, I hope they will do more with the characters of Roger and Jessica. But right now, it looks a little bit lessened.

The Dvd shelf movie reviews: Roger Rabbit

An in-depth review of our favorite film has been posted over at The Agony Booth. And this must be one of the best ones I've seen so far. In addition to expressing his love for the film, David Rose also go on to tell us about the making of it in great detail. A very enthusiastic video made by someone with great admiration for the film.

CineMassacre reviews “Who Framed Roger Rabbit”

James Rolfe from CineMassacre does a great review of “Who Framed Roger Rabbit” that has been going all around the tubes, gathering a lot of attention and positive comments.

Yeah, another WFRR review which praises the movie, big deal.

Well, in fact… IT’S ACTUALLY A BIG DEAL.

Maybe the name James Rolfe doesn’t sound familiar to some of you, but maybe his alter-ego will strike a chord in your memories: The Angry Video Game Nerd.

Yes, this is the guy who crucified Roger Rabbit (of course, the almost unplayable game made by LJN for the Nintendo Entertainment System). So we learned he actually has nothing against Roger and the gang, but instead he acknowledges that WFRR still holds up great after all those years, and it’s worth the watch mainly because the nostalgia factor and all those double-entendre jokes aimed to adult audiences.

Check this review: maybe after watching it you’d like to enjoy “Roger Rabbit” again :D

Until we win

I came across this at the Nostalgia Critic website and figured I'd share it with you. I never had the displeasure of playing this game myself, but it seems to be a pretty frustrating and difficult thing judging from this video.

Bolt

characters_bolt

Some weeks ago I watched the newest animated feature from Disney: Bolt. And I must say I was very pleased at the end of the movie. It’s a really sweet and funny movie, maybe it’s not Pixar caliber, but it’s still good on its own.

The characters have a lot of charisma and it’s impossible not falling in love with Bolt, Mittens, Rhino or Penny; maybe there’s a couple of them that are just playing their roles without adding anything else to the story (for example, Rhino the hyperactive Bolt fanboy and the pigeons that can’t figure who Bolt really is) but as a whole they work together very well.

As every Disney movie, Bolt has a lot of messages about friendship, believing in ourselves and keep going even if things are against us, and the moral of the story kinda ruins the ending of the movie since it’s a little too sugary and sweet. But the action sequences -in which Bolt don’t realizes he’s just playing a character in a TV show- are frantic and awesome. And some of the gags are funny as hell (fortunately, there isn't a gag abuse as in many other recent Disney features, and they help to keep the story running).

If you haven’t seen Bolt yet, you can still try to catch it at your local cinema, or wait for the DVD release until April. If you decide to wait for the DVD and you’re living in Mexico, then go to your nearest Blockbuster Video store, because they’re giving cute little Bolt plush keychains with every preorder (you can secure your copy of Bolt with just $60 pesos, less than $6 dollars):

Don’t get fooled by the pictures: it’s somewhat huge for a keychain ;)
