If it helps any,
Salzmank ,I remember it and liked it and still like it. The ride at Disneyland was fun too !
Thanks, Bat! I suppose I like it so much because I went into it not expecting anything special, at least besides silly cartoon antics. But, besides the obvious novelty value of seeing both Disney and Looney Tunes characters in the same movie, it's actually a great movie.
Not in the "well, it's a great kids movie," or "animated movie," or so forth, but in an actual cinematic, I-am-unashamed-to-say-that-it-is-great way. Or, in other words, if, heaven forbid, the animated parts were removed, people would be applauding the lighting, acting, directing, writing, etc.
The late Bob Hoskins, in particular, is superb as private eye Eddie Valiant. It's a grand performance.
Naturally, me being me, with my love with the '30s and '40s, I love the atmosphere.
And I know well that it's still a beloved little film by many, but
fangirl1975 's comment worried me because many people nowadays may just not know it or, indeed, have forgotten about it and have no interest in showing it to their kids.
Probably shouldn't worry me so much, except that it's a part of the general trend of "gee, my kid wouldn't be interested, that's an old movie"--yeah,
some "old movie," being from '88!
