User blog:WalrusGuy/PG Proposal: Roger Rabbit

For my next proposal I decided to propose Roger Rabbit, who being a toon is regularly exposed to slapstick comedy, although strangely enough it doesn’t always happen whenever he’s on the set. He’s the title character of Who Framed Roger Rabbit. People thought he was a murderer, of course, but he didn’t actually do it. The plot of the movie is Valiant trying to exonerate him for the murder of Marvin Acme.

His reaction that his wife was apparently cheating on him was to...write her a love letter. He actually becomes friends with Valiant despite him not liking toons due to one of them killing his brother and sympathizes with him because of that.

Being the hero he is, he tries to save Jessica from Judge Doom. He fails, but it’s the thought it counts, right?

Admirable Standard Eddie Valiant isn’t exactly there since he doesn’t like toons, though he grows out of it by the end of the movie after he kills the toon that killed his brother. But I think Roger is. Considering that Betty Boop thinks Jessica Rabbit is the lucky one for getting to marry Roger, I think the toons love him. And of course Herman vouches for his innocence.

Final Thoughts I think he counts.
