Is that a rabbit in your pocket or are you just happy to see me? Valiant: Cut the comedy Dolores.

 Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988)
In this book, Roger hired Eddie Valiant to investigate whether his sexy wife Jessica was having an affair with Clark Gable, one of Roger's rivals (another rival is Baby Herman) for the lead role of Rhett in the musical comedy version of Gone With the Wind.
In the shadows of the set after witnessing the flawed take with the zany rabbit is a brown-suited man [in the next scene identified as Eddie Valiant, played by Bob Hoskins] with a beat-up fedora (and looking like a composite of Peter Falk of TV's Columbo and cartoon character Elmer Fudd).
Valiant is dumbfounded and his jaw drops as he gasps: "She's married to Roger Rabbit?!" Betty Boop replies dreamily: "Yeah - What a lucky gurrll!" Betty reaches over and closes Eddie's mouth.

 JoBlo's movie review of Shrek 2: Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz
I also liked seeing the old crew back in action, especially Eddie Murphy's Donkey, which is pretty much the only thing Murphy seems to have done right in the past few years, as well as the cute side-kicks a la Pinocchio and the Gingerbread Man, who all make valiant "cameo" appearances nearing the film's conclusion.
JoBlo's movie review of Shrek 2: Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz
The new addition that really took this film to another level though was the introduction of its latest star, Puss 'n Boots, voiced brilliantly by Antonio Banderas, and featuring one of the more unforgettable animated character "sad faces" of all-time.

 The Wallabies: Valiant in defeat
EDDIE JONES: Well, they certainly controlled possession, and possession in those conditions is everything, and we struggled to get our share of possession, got more in the later part of the game which allowed us to certainly put a lot of pressure on them.
EDDIE JONES: Well, exciting thing for us is that if you look at the squad, there's probably 70 per cent of the squad have got their best rugby ahead of them, so we're in a pretty positive stage.
EDDIE JONES: He's been fantastic — you know, his percentage is over 80 per cent and, particularly, the last two goals he kicked under enormous pressure were just a tribute to the dedication and hard work and his ability.

Private eye Eddie Valiant is hired by Maroon Studios.
Quieter scenes dealing with the reluctant friendship between Eddie and Roger or in Eddie's problem overcoming the bottle, tend to be regarded as less important filler material.
With Roger the prime suspect, hunted by the Toon-hating Judge Doom, Eddie reluctantly grants him sanctuary and sets about trying to prove his innocence.

 Memorable Quotes from Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988)
Eddie Valiant : Save your money for a pair of elevator shoes.
Eddie Valiant : That lame-brain freeway idea could only be cooked up by a toon.
Baby Herman : The problem is I got a fifty year old lust and a three year old dinky.

 Benny the Cab
Benny becomes Roger, Jessica and Eddie Valiant's mode of transportation and like most toons, Benny is capable of some amazing, but whacky antics.
In the movie, when the producers needed to show the "live action" character of Eddie where he is driving around in Benny, the animators had to have actor Bob Hoskins drive around in a little go-cart, then animate Benny over it.
One example is when Benny has to jumg up onto a bridge, so if you freeze frame the video you can tell that it's really an animated Eddie.

 Van Halen - III Music Review
In addition to his phenomenal guitar stylings, Eddie took part in co-producing this record, and even sings lead vocals, while accompanying himself on piano on the impressive ballad "How Many Say I." This honest look at interdependency, is a valiant effort for Eddie--moving and lyrically inspiring.
The energy constantly flows with remarkable tracks such as, "From Afar," "Year To The Day," and the epic "Once." VH III proves beyond a doubt that Eddie can still make the band Jump.
The long overdue and highly anticipated Van Halen III is finally here--and along with it is the big question --will the material hold up to the hype?

An early possibility for the class was Valiant but that was changed.

Eddie Valiant, Roger, Jessica and Baby Herman are still here, but only their basic character traits (Eddie's alcoholism, Jessica's buxomness) are the same.
What you've already read in the reviews is true.Who Censored Roger Rabbit is nothing like the movie, "Who Framed Roger Rabbit."In fact, its one of the few stories out there that vastly improved, when they made it into a movie.
For all its tragic flaws, however, it is a worthwhile read, especially if you are a diehard "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" fan and would like to compare between the two.

With the law on his tail, Roger turns to toon-hating detective Eddie Valiant to find the real culprit and clear his alliterative name.
The special features are completed by a deleted "Pig Head Sequence" a brief feature about the giant rubber "Toon Stand-Ins" used for blocking and pacing purposes, an interactive gallery in "The Valiant Files" and a before-and-after comparison of raw footage to finished film.
The real innovation of Who Framed Roger Rabbit (104 minutes, Touchstone Home Entertainment, rated PG) was the sense of life conveyed not only by the characters (be they flesh or paint) but also by the film itself.

 slant // magazine.com: DVD Review - Who Framed Roger Rabbit
The story takes place in Hollywood in 1947 and follows the exploits of private detective-turned-lush Eddie Valiant (Bob Hoskins), hired by Maroon Cartoons head R.K. Maroon (Alan Tilvern) to snoop on Jessica Rabbit, the allegedly adulterous wife of Maroon star Roger Rabbit.
The bitter and reluctant Valiant, whose brother/partner was killed by a mysterious 'toon years earlier, catches Jessica Rabbit in a game of patty-cake with Marvin Acme, owner of Toontown, and subsequently exposes the plot of one Judge Doom (Christopher Lloyd) to destroy the cartoon city and build a massive freeway from Los Angeles to Pasadena.
Not only did the filmmakers flawlessly bridge the gap between humans and cartoons—the titular "hero" casts shadows, moves objects and tugs on collars—but the film provides both slap-stick humor for kids and clever satire and social commentary for adults.

 DVD Verdict Review - Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Even the hard-hearted Eddie Valiant covers for the hapless Roger, at least when Doom's weasels show up.
Doom smokes Roger out of hiding with an old Toon trick, but Eddie saves the day with a double shot of bourbon.
Judge Doom has a comparable amount of screen time, but is pretty much a one-dimensional (dare I say, cartoonish?) villain—which is not to detract from Christopher Lloyd, who does convey a powerful, chilling sense of evil.

He mentions Blackjack Lanza but skips his managing of the Blackjacks (Lanza and Mulligan), which included a feud with Bruiser and Crusher that culminated in a gruesome cage match at Chicago's Soldier Field (where Heenan actually vomited in the ring).
