...Today those cartoons are deemed big art, and Roger Rabbit is big business. The film cost about a zillion simoleons (well, $35 million) and carries a humongous 739 names on the credits (not including Kathleen Turner, who lends her voice to Jessica). Something got lost in the move from storyboard to screen, and in the stretch from seven minutes to 103. From sad experience, Disney and Spielberg should know the perils of paying huge homage to modest genres, yet Roger Rabbit has the odor of a Toontown Tron, a 1941 for 1988.

According to the latest report from Video Storyboard Tests, a New York City firm that rates the ten most noticed print ads, Marlboro has been edged out by Calvin Klein, the designer whose suggestive series of underwear ads first appeared in 1982. Says Dave Vadehra, president of Video Storyboard Tests: "Calvin Klein has managed to do in three years what it took Marlboro 20 years...

...hands. The camera then focuses on the comic book as it lies in the front lawn garbage can, letting the wind-ruffled pages tell each story by segueing from animated stills to live film and back again.
