Idiot. DISNEY has rabbit characters, why wouldn't they just use them?

I am going to give "Lisa" the benefit of the doubt and believe it was just temporary confusion. Now, if she wrote back with something like "Of course he is Disney! He was with Mickey Mouse in 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit'", well, then she would qualify for SG status. :cat1:

Several years ago, when eating at a restaurant at DLR, we noticed the manager was wearing a Bugs Bunny tie. We asked him about it, and he said it was legitimate as Bugs had been in a Disney film (Roger Rabbit).

An interesting this about that was the contract with Warner specifically stated Bugs would have at least as many words spoken as Mickey would have.

Ah, you don't think of the contract woes that animated characters have to put up with... :rolleyes:
Like Happy the Hedgehog!

Now my other question would be, who animated Bugs for Roger Rabbit?


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

This reminds me of the time when Disney posted this picture and question on Facebook, and one of the first comments was "you can find it in the movie SHRECK"

(you probably have to be signed in to actually see the comment)

He was there to help show the idea that all (or most) "Toons" lived in "Toontown", not just the Disney characters. So, you had Bugs, Daffy, Porky, and others show up. To ease company rivalry, Bugs shows up with Mickey, and Daffy does a piano duel with Donald, just to make things even.
