Is the Roger Rabbit costume still in storage at WDW?
Goodbye, Me Bizarro is not Monkey Joe. Me Bizarro hates Disney parks so much.Hello
Probably. Disney never gets rid of anything. He's probably in storage hanging next to Orville. Unfortunate, too that the US can't have him come out to play anymore.
The employees should get him out for Halloween at the Magic Kingdom.Originally Posted by SorcererMickey
Amblin is no more.

Yes, there are lots of costumes that don't see the light of day... but are still around, just in-case. Roger is one of them.
What do you mean? Amblin is still alive and well as the production company for all of Spielberg's projects.

PPPPPPPPPPPlease bring me back!!
What's great is that as I read that, I completely heard it in his voice

The only way to revive Roger Rabbit is to get Spielberg on board. And I would suggest the best way to do that is to impress him with what they do to refresh/enhance the Lucasfilm properties in the parks (Star Wars and Indy), especially since Spielberg is the director of Indy 4, due in theaters May 2008. Beyond that, they should pitch some new ideas for Roger Rabbit animated shorts, especially since Lasseter is committed to reviving that aspect of the studio.

Spielberg doesn't use Ambline anymore at all. He uses Dreamworks which is owned by Paramount/Viacom.
p.s.
when are we getting a trip report, Piglet?

^^No, Amblin is still an active production company and Spielberg does use it. Dreamworks and Amblin are two separate things, and Amblin did not go away when Spielberg co-founded Dreamworks. The recent Fox tv flop, "On the Lot" was an Amblin Television production.
Regardless, the only relevance of this point to this thread is that Spielberg retains whatever rights he has over Roger Rabbit.

Isn't it funny that an elaborate dark ride can continue on while a cotton costume has to be banished?
Please consider the environment before printing useless emails
I have been screaming out for the return of Roger to the parks for ages! While recently at DLP, I spotted some new Roger merchandise (not enough to get excited about) but the fact that their WDS has a 'Toon Studios' with no sign of Mr Rabbit is preposterous!
WDW - 1987 & 1991
DLP - 1996, 2004, 2006 & 2007
DLR - October 2011
Don't give them ideas.

I saw an awesome Jessica (Rabbit's) Island Tours T-shirt the other day, think I'll buy it next time I'm there
You can see a HUGE Roger Rabbit in the 80's section of Pop Century, sadly this is all I usually see of Roger but neat none the less. :P
