The Behind the Scenes Pic of the Day isn’t bad, it’s just drawn that way.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today’s Behind the Scenes pic! Stepping clear of the all horror/movie monster centric October run of BtSPotD we find ourselves with a rather interesting (and a bit risqué) picture from the filming of WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT? This particular title is bound to have plent of interesting behind the scenes potential due to the crazy technique used to bring the hybrid live action/cartoon worlds together. I have many fond memories of this film. In fact, it’s an early movie memory for me. I can vividly remember watching this in the theater with my mom. As I grew older the references became more clear, but I recall even at a young age thinking how different this movie was from others of its type. Jessica Rabbit was an unapologetic sex symbol, her animated cleavage causing more than a few young boys to see the light. Probably some young girls, too. I’m sure Jessica swings, so whatever floats your boat. The photo comes from reader Steve Abramson and was one of my top contenders for the recent Making of Empire Strikes Back book contest I just ran. He got it from Cinefex and makes sure to point out that the human stand in for Jessica Rabbit is an actress named Betsy Brantley. I hope you guys enjoy the image and make sure to click for the mega-version of it.

If you have a pic you think should be included email me. I’m looking for the iconic, the rare or the just plain cool behind the scenes shots to feature here. I think tomorrow’s pic is the start of a beautiful friendship. -Quint quint@aintitcool.com Follow Me On Twitter
