You know what's up, but looking at the plot of the inspirational source, it makes sense to cast Mickey here.

Anyone with the screen name "Harry Potter" probably wouldn't know anything about good movies anyway

I wonder if there going to make his origin from the sequel script drafts canon....
that he's the
that he's the
illegitimate son of Bugs Bunny
Roger looks like he's on a meth high.
Look at those eyes, those are the eyes of someone who will kill for another hit.

Puh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-leaaaaase!
The film hasn't even been confirmed. Believe that it is just being proposed.

What does Lego Marvel Super Heroes have to do with WB??

Disney owns Marvel films and I assume he assumed all of Marvel.
They're missing the point. The best cameo moments were Daffy versus Donald, and Bugs being an ass to Mickey. Mickey himself wasn't a good point. They should try to get Warner on board. (It will also help with the international appeal of the movie, Mickey Mouse doesn't work as well abroad as he does in the US. Donald is bigger here.)
It's not even in development at Disney. These are all outsiders trying to pitch Disney a movie. There's a technical director at Disney who's interested in directing it, outside of him, everyone actually involved in this pitch works outside the studio and haven't been contracted to do anything.
Seems like a longshot to me. Frankly, I'm not sure Disney as a company is going to be big on taking an outside pitch as a major feature animation project.

Disney does own all of marvel. I thought he meant there were WB/DC comics charecters in Lego marvel and if that were true my mind would have blown

Who Framed Roger Rabbit is one of my favourite movies ever, cant wait if this movie is finally greenlighted. Lets hope.
Fun fact (that im sure most people that love the movie will know bu now), Mickey and Bugs had to appear exactly in the same number of frames, so if one entered a frame before (a feet for example like in the ending), the other character would dissapear a frame after the other had completly dissapeared. Thats why Bugs and Mickey appear exactly in the same scenes.
Same with Daffy and Donald.
I dont really know what GAGF is but this is funny becuase even if Steven Spielberg was the producer, the majority of talent that made this film were from Disney. And the shorts were made by Disney. And Roger, Jessica and Baby Herman are Disney property.
AAAAAND Donald's old shorts are usually more looney than the majority of Looney Tunes.
His scenes in the film are pretty well known and he was in several group shots...

I heard this a couple of weeks ago, but I'm skeptical.
It sounds too enjoyable.
It sounds too enjoyable.
I used to think it was weird seeing Daffy and Donald Duck in the same film.
Yeah its a wonder how they had so many iconic characters from different studios. Betty Boop, Dumbo, Donald, Daffy, Mickey, Minny, Donald, Goofy, Bugs, Sylvester, Tweety, Woody Woodpecker, Felix the cat... it's crazy how big of a crossover that movie is. Seriously how did this awesomeness happen? How the hell did Zemeckis get permission to use all those characters?
Mickey is perfect for it because he's the ultimate "straight man" to Roger's lunatic behaviour.
Basically, he's Ned Flanders to Homer Simpson.
His scenes in the film are pretty well known and he was in several group shots...
Bugs and Mickey are dickheads in the movie too.

That looks like fan art (Would Disney really use a stock Photoshop texture effect?)

People thought he said "nigger" in the piano battle with Daffy.

Adults? I dunno, do adults still care about Back to the Future, Ghostbusters, or The Goonies?
Kids? Well, I'd wager most kids don't know who Roger Rabbit is, but I guess they would if they'd made something with him in it over the past 20 years.
My 3-year old now knows who Roger Rabbit is thanks to the blu-ray.

Do an Oswald film.
It basically is fan art. It's a pitch being developed entirely outside of Disney.
I wish people investigated stories more before reporting and/or posting them. Too many false assumptions and dropped details in order to grab the flashy headline. Fucking Internet media.
IGN seems to have gotten this from a fan blog: http://blog.garywolf.com/
Disneyland had Toontown. Disneyworld had Mickey's Toontown Fair. I think that's been subsumed into the new Fantasyland now, though. The HISTA Movie Set Adventure is in Disney Studios.

It wouldn't be CGI. The animated characters would be 2D hand-drawn.
To be fair, though, the guy who made it and is pitching it is the same guy who wrote the first Roger Rabbit books. So it's not just some dude off the street pitching a Mickey/Roger movie to Disney.
He'll be in the new Mickey Mouse shorts Disney is doing.

I'd be all up for more Roger, but Mickey can fuck off.

Yep. They've done all kinds of tests too, both CG and 2D, or 2D with CG props. I think a video of one of the early CG tests leaked a little while ago.
