But being in this space many times before, there's a comfort I find with it.So tonight in preparation for that New Chip N' Dale movie, I decided to rewatch another Live Action/animated hybrid (in fact, arguably the best one), Who Framed Roger Rabbit starring the Late and Great Bob Hoskins, AKA Happytime Murders but done right, and.well, I'm not going to spend too long on this because, it still holds up extremely well.

And then there's other things that we thought 'no, that's too crazy' but then you found 'oh wow, it actually worked out perfect.' So it's just kind of a little bit of trial and error. There were a lot of things that we thought might try or thought that might work. We were just constantly trying.' 'This is kind of the world of comedy to a certain degree, and family films, where you just have to kind of figure out as you go along.

But luckily I had an amazing cast who understood what we were making and understood how to take it to a level of fun without losing the simpler reality. There were things we tried where we felt like we were being a little too realistic and we needed to embrace the zaniness of cartoon animals and cartoon characters.

'You're able to do comedy and then you're able to take two characters that I literally grew up watching and take those characters and bring them into this world.

'I went back and watched most, if not all, of the original Hanna-Barbera shorts and that's kind of where I left it. So that was the main thing.' 'And then the other thing I went to was the original shorts,' he added. We wanted to be sure that we always kept these two existences, as you might say, separate and let them have their own set of rules.

'I must admit, in the world we were trying to create, which many hybrids haven't done recently, which is to try to recreate the 2D animation with 'the human world' or 'the real world,' and that's exactly what we were trying to do. ' was the main one that I went back and checked out,' Story explained. IGN spoke to Tim Story about working with legacy cartoon characters, bringing these famous frenemies into the world of mixed live-action, and how Roger Rabbit provided the perfect template for humor, drama, and action for a world where humans and animated characters co-exist in fantastical harmony.
