Roger Rabbit - Get!

I'm going to be straight-up honest. I love Who Framed Roger Rabbit?. It's easily one of my favorite movies of all time. The blend of animation into live-action is nothing short of awesome.

While the Vista Edition DVD was released last week, I wasn't able to get it until now. I've yet to watch it but I will review it later for Nerv. However, I felt like commenting on the packaging and slapping out some pics for anyone else interested in the DVD.

The set (currently less than $16 at Whale Mart) contains 2 DVDs. One for fullscreen, labeled 'Family Friendly' and the second is the widescreen version marked 'Enthusiast'. Undoubtedly the latter will be played most as I dislike fullscreen.

The packaging is nifty. You get a slipcase with the standard cover (Eddie, Roger and Jessica in Benny the Cab). Inside you've got the disc holder which is made up to look like a leatherbound case. You've got both DVDs in plastic trays on the right and a pocket on the left which contains two 'signed' pictures. One 'from' Roger and the other, Jessica. Also contained in the pocket is a little teaser for the special additions to the discs, a $5 rebate if you purchased earlier versions and a coupon for 35 tokens at Chuck E. Cheese. I threw the last two in the trash.

In any case, here are a couple of snaps of the packaging. I look forward to the actual viewing.

Damn..That's a nice set-up.

Great Movie, I loved it. I saw it with a buddy of mine back in grade School, I should check it out again to see if it stands the test of time.

Excellent movie. I'll have to pick it up this summer when I actually have a job/money to afford it. Thanks for the pictures!

Wow, that is one kick ass set. I might just have to get that (Read: I'll always say "Hey, I want this" but never buy it)

Wow... brings back memories of the Fantasia VHS box set from waaaay back when for some reason.

I'm so getting it.

Me want! Roger Rabbit issch a good movie.. I have the old VHS and we watch it all the time... this DVD is defenately a must buy...

Got it Friday at Wacky Wally's and I verymuch enjoy the packaging as well as the extras.

Picked it up the day it came out at Best Buy. They were offering a special, if you bought another Disney DVD with it you'd get $5 off, so I got Nightmare Before Christmas SE with it for only $9.99 :D

Who Framed Roger Rabbit was one of my favorite movies as a child, still remember seeing in the theatres when I was 8 (man I feel old) and loved every moment of it. Seeing Mickey Mouse & Bugs Bunny on the screen simultaneously and actually interacting with one another is still one of the most incedible things I have ever witnessed to this day. Honestly, I think I still remember the day I saw it in the theatre there were actually kids AND parents with their mouths hanging wide-open seeing that on screen :)

I love this film as well. Cool looking dvd set too. I knew it was coming out, but havent actually seen how it looks. I will be definately picking it up sometimes soon.
