finally done the story of the “virgin” mary and her immaculate conception for my sequential art final. very happy with how this came out/that it’s finished.
this is beautiful, good job!
This is actually how I said it probably happened.
I just laughed myself into space
“yea someone ‘came upon you’ but i dont think it was the lord” is the best line ever written in the history of anything
This is so disrespectful and disgusting I honestly can’t believe this has 75000 notes go fuck yourself what the hell
Wow…
“she can’t be bisexual! she’s in a relationship with a man!”
Perfect use of that gif. Thank you.

I feel like there are probably too many people just scrolling past this so let’s go through everything that’s going on here.
1. With Roger’s voice actor standing off camera, Bob Hoskins acts into empty air and frantically sawing at his handcuff, continually looking up and down at different visual marks of various depths. Look at the slow pan up of his eyes in gif 4, and then the quick shift to his side. Think about how, on set, he was looking at nothing.
2. Starting in gif 2, The box must be made to stop shaking, either by concealed crew member, mechanism, or Hoskins own dextrousness, as he is doing all of the things mentioned in point 1.
3. In all gifs, Roger’s handcuff has to be made to move appropriately through a hidden mechanism. (If you watch the 4th gif closely you can see the split second where it is replaced by an animated facsimile of the actual handcuff, but just for barely a second.)
4. The crew voluntarily (we know this because it is now a common internal phrase at Disney for putting in extra work for small but significant reward) decided to make Roger bump the lamp and give the entire scene a constantly moving light source that had to be matched between the on set footage and Roger. This was for two reasons, A) Robert Zemeckis thought it would be funnier, and B) one of the key techniques the crew employed to make the audience instinctually accept that Toons coexisted with the live action environment was constant interaction with it. This is why, other than comedy, Roger is so dang clumsy. Instead of isolating Toons from real objects to make it easier for themselves, the production went out of its way to make Toons interact more with the live action set than even real actors necessarily would, in order to subtly, constantly remind the audience that they have real palpable presence. You can watch the whole scene here, just to see how few shots there are of Roger where he doesn’t interact with a real object.
The crew and animators did all of this with hand drawn cell animation without computerized special effects. 1988, we were still five years out from Jurassic Park, the first movie to make the leap from fully physical creature effects to seamlessly integrating realistic computer generated images with live action footage. Roger’s shadows weren’t done with CGI. Hoskin’s sightlines were not digitally altered. Wires controlling the handcuff were not removed in post.
Who f***ing Framed Roger f***ing Rabbit, folks. The greatest trick is when people don’t realize you’re tricking them at all.
I could watch this movie the rest of my life and never get tired. Enjoy it for the story, enjoy it for the unheard-of-at-the-time level of cross-company cameos, enjoy it for its technical wizardry.
Even with its occasional rough edge… this movie is a masterpiece.
I love this movie.
Well put.
It kinda bugged me in the wake of Bob Hoskins passing there was a lot of people saying “don’t remember him just for Roger Rabbit, he was in real films too.”
I have no doubt he’s good in a lot of those other films, and some of them are better and more important films than Roger Rabbit. When you look at all the technical accomplishments that movie accomplished and how Bob Hoskins had to act with less cues than modern actors do with CG characters you have to admit that it’s still a pretty notable movie on his resume.
when u get to sit next to ur friend in class
HEY THIS WAS ORIGINALLY A DORA GIF WHO CHANGED IT TO OBAMA WITH A DUCK
THAT IS NOT OBAMA WITH A DUCK
EVERYTIME I SEE THIS THERE IS A NEW GIF AND I HAVE TO REBLOG IT
I always thought it would be cool to juxtapose windows 95-era computer imagery with fantasy elements like magic and spirits.
SO, i give you: floppy disk demon. pretend the GIF compression is for thematic effect.
HELL YEAH THIS IS EXACTLY MY SHIT

Please give this a reblog, many artists out there may not know this is here.

LET ME SMOOCH YOU
GOODBYE RE-POSTERS
I have a mighty need to know why no one is talking about this extremely telling moment in HLV. (x)
John looks painfully insecure, confused, hurt, uncomfortable, and in that final frame, ready to push Janine down the stairs.
This is the man who, just hours before, woke up from dreaming about Sherlock, was rude to a neighbor because she wasn’t Sherlock, broke into a crack den, and beat up a junkie… all because he hadn’t seen Sherlock for a single month. He’s obviously missed him like crazy and got the ultimate slap in the face when he perceives that Sherlock didn’t miss him at all (because of Sherlock moving his chair out of the room) and has, in fact, moved on.
Everyone take note that this is how Captain John H. Watson looks when he thinks he is losing the person he loves but refuses to be with. This is how he looks when he thinks no one is looking.
All of this. That’s what you get for marrying someone else, John. You get to swallow down your jealousy because you’re the one who made the choice to not be allowed to be jealous.
SIGNAL BOOST!!!!
This video might be the most clever way to raise money for dogs in need, because all you need to do is watch it.
“Just by watching these puppies, you’re raising money for dogs in need,” says the narrator in the video above. “You see, if a video goes viral, YouTube shares the money they made from advertising with whoever made the video, and in this case, every dollar we earn will go toward feeding, treating and finding homes for dogs who haven’t been as lucky as us.”
The video comes from The Pedigree Adoption Drive, and ends by imploring viewers to share because the more views received, the more money will be raised.
So share this video. You know, for the dogs.
