While a toon and a human try to solve a murder mystery, Bryan and Thomas are here to watch a modern masterpiece of a blockbuster! Yes, the penultimate episode of Cinema to the Letter's Blockbuster mini-series is all about the 1988 Robert Zemeckis film Who Framed Roger Rabbit! Together, our duo answers the crucial questions. Why could Disney only make this film at this specific time? How did Bob Hoskins manage to talk to invisible folks? What is the modern legacy of the Looney Tunes? Well, take Merry Go Round off the record player so you can listen to find out!
