Cartoons that NEED a live-action induction!

[Phoenix Gamma]

Lemme rephrase: Live Action + Preexisting Cartoon Series = NO.

Roger Rabbit was about cartoons and the real world colliding. They didn't take a beloved franchise and make it "real" (Garfield), they took new characters, and threw them into the real world as-is. This thread is really about taking cartoons that already exist and making them live action.

I guess if I had to use a metaphor, Garfield and Underdog were a Chemical Mixture, and Who Framed Roger Rabbit would be a Mechanical Mixture (yay science!)

And yes, Who Framed Roger Rabbit was amazing. One of my textbooks from last semester was written by one of the leading animators from the film, and it's great.
