A real blast from the past

Rating: 7/10 (1 May 2001)

After "concerned" parents groups(censors) succeeded in completely neutering television cartoons for adults(and for any child over the age of five), because "they were on when children could be watching", it was only natural that movies would eventually take up the slack (with highly varying degrees of success).
"Roger Rabbit" was probably the most successful attempt of bringing back the sophisticated wit and cartoon "violence" that earlier cartoons were famous for.
I only hope that television can break the grasp of government imposed censorship and cartoons "like the good old days" could return.
