But people seemed to have no big issue with Jessica Rabbit. ![]() ![]() Maybe its the juxtaposition of humans and the near human that unsettles people. Also interesting is the fact that on this site and elsewhere there are a multitude of representations of humans in almost every conceivable way that are not rigidly realistic, but you don't often hear people objecting to that. I have seen a lot of negative comments varying from repulsion to disappointment and even anger over the representation. I suppose I must admit to a momentary episode of the "uncanny valley" when I first saw the character, but that was relatively quickly and easily overridden by the realization of the fact that she was deliberately not-quite-human. I have not seen the movie itself, either, but I have seen the trailers and stills. I find the reaction to the treatment of the character in the movie to be rather curious.
