It's pretty much a verifiable fact by this point: Jessica Rabbit is without a doubt the hottest animated character ever committed to paper. She's like the Marilyn Monroe of the cartoon world, a sex icon to which all men are drawn to like moths to a flame. Is it any wonder that there are actual human women out there who have undergone extreme plastic surgery in order to more closely resemble the cartoon femme fatale? For those of you who have a thing for Lola Bunny, you'll find a certain kinship with Jessica, who is also attracted to rabbits. Who Framed Roger Rabbit is sort of a deceptive film, because it seems like just another goofy, childish Looney Tunes comedy. But it's actually a lot darker and more adult that that -- you need only think of the show's gruesome and terrible death scene. So it makes a certain amount of sense that this film would feature a cartoon character that just oozes sex. They accomplished what they set out to do, because anyone who tries to say that Jessica Rabbit isn't super mega foxy awesome hot is either stupid or lying.
