At this point we're going to get "Lineup for Who Framed Roger Rabbit?: The Movie."

I don’t think they can do anything with Roger Rabbit unless they get Spielberg on board. That’s why the character disappeared from the parks and a planned land in one of their Florida theme parks never happened, and why the original sequel never happened

I didn't realize there wasn't a sequel and it's kinda crazy there isn't. That movie was HUGE when I was kid.

Yeah it was a massive success, and the company went all in on Roger merchandise. Spielberg was interested in a sequel that JJ Abrams would write, but they abandoned his outline quickly. Another writer was brought onboard and they came up with a sequel that would take place during WWII but Spielberg left the project bc he didn’t want to satirize N*zis (a good call) The script got reworked but it just never ended up happening (the first part of this YT video covers the abandoned sequel: https://youtu.be/Rp2YBU0MTtE)

The director of the original mentioned a few years ago that some people were still writing scripts to pitch it and that the latest one was really good but that he didn’t think it would ever get made (and I mean I love Zemeckis but he’s not exactly a good judge of script lately lol the bit about the Eddie Valient’s ghost is just a weird idea to me): https://www.slashfilm.com/roger-

it's not happening. supposedly the script was good but disney didn't want to make a "dark" family movie so this one is going to be more comedic. :(

Welp, I wonder who passed on this.

And Tiffany was also being terrible in Clubhouse. She harassed a Black woman and almost drove her to suicide. :(

when the hell are we getting a Thunder Mountain or Space Mountain movie I'd watch the shit out of those

I thought at one point they were developing a Thunder Mountain show to go with the ride renovations in, like, 2015 or whatever, but that never happened

I dont get why they havent done a Star Tours movie or short TV series.

Especially since they own Star Wars now.

It could be loosely based on the ride (ideally more-so the original version).

An intergalactic travel agency, and the goings-on of that work.

Make it the WINGS of Star Wars.
