Quote #4
BETTY BOOP: Work's been kinda slow since cartoons went to color. But I still got it Eddie. Boo boo bedoo. Boop!
VALIANT: Yeah, you still got it.
It's easy to write off an entire group as being identical, but there are differences between people within a group. If Roger Rabbit were a different movie, it might explore the tension between the black-and-white Toons and the color Toons, who exist on different social levels because of their coloring. Even without this deep exploration, we still notice that there's a sense of loss from the old style to the new. Do the color cartoons in Roger Rabbit now feel this way that computer animation has taken over?
Quote #5
LT. SANTINO: Just like a Toon to drop a safe on a guy's head. Sorry Eddie. Ahem. Better wait here, all right?
Even the police harbor stereotypical attitudes toward Toons as a whole. It's difficult to treat a group fairly when the police are prejudiced against them in this way.
Quote #6
ROGER: No wonder you hate me! If a Toon killed my brother I'd hate me too.
Roger is sympathetic toward Eddie's attitude, which makes Eddie warm up to Roger in exchange. Many people harbor prejudicial attitudes out of ignorance, and they start to question them and change them when they get to know people from the race they are prejudiced against. By getting to know a Toon, Eddie softens up his attitude against Toons.
