Film number 21 in the 1001 movie challenge was 1988's "Who Framed Roger Rabbit." This film clocks in at 104 minutes (1 hour 44 minutes) but doesn't feel like it. None of the scenes dragged. I enjoyed everything and had a lot of fun re-watching everything. Now the first time I was this, I was a little young and when I was Judge Doom turn into the evil cartoon version of himself (SPOILER!) that really scared me. Now that I'm older, it doesn't really scare me. I just look at it and find it cool how they made Christopher Lloyd's eyes cartoon looking. This film went on to win 3 Oscars for Best Film Editing, Best Effects/Sound Effects Editing and Best Effects/Visual Effects. Would highly recommend to everyone. Watch it with the family! Why not?
