Alternate versions for
Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988) More at IMDbPro »

• A shot, allegedly animated by two Disney practical-jokers (who were subsequently fired), of Jessica's vagina during her dance sequence was inserted into the first laserdisc print.
  
  
• The infamous scene where Jessica rabbit and Eddie are thrown out of the cab and Jessica's vagina is visible for several frames was altered for the VHS release: Jessica now has white panties on.
  
  
• In the broadcast TV version, Baby Herman laments "I got a 50-year-old lust in a 3-year-old body" instead of the original "I got a 50-year-old lust in a 3-year-old's dinky" though the original line was heard in TV commercials for the film's theatrical release.
  
  
• The original film had a scene of Betty Boop where her dress was drawn too low in the front making her look topless. The scene was edited before being released on video.
  
  
• When Eddie Valiant approached a gorilla, who was guarding the entrance door of a lounge, he said, "Nice monkey suit." Then the gorilla responds, "Wise ass." On TV, the line was changed to "Wise guy", to make it more appropriate. The change was pretty noticeable, because the new voice was different from the gorilla's original voice.
  
  
• For the 2003 Vista Series DVD release, the scene where Jessica and Eddie are thrown from the cab has been altered yet again. In this version of the scene, Jessica is actually entirely re-animated for several frames and falls much more gracefully, with her nether regions staying carefully hidden by her dress.
  
  
• In the edited TV version, the punchline "Nice booby trap," was changed to "Nice goin', Jess."
  
  
• Several brief scenes were cut after the initial release:
  • The gorilla picking up Eddie by the lapels after the line "Who are you calling a chump, chimp!"
  • The beginning of Roger's reaction as the weasels cross the road to Eddie's office
  • A brief dialogue exchange between Eddie and Smartass while Roger is hiding in the sink
  
  
  
• Some versions, including the television version shown on Fox, have an extra scene: After leaving Roger with Dolores, Eddie Valiant attempts to break into Jessica Rabbit's dressing room and encounters an angry Judge Doom and Gorilla. He is then kidnapped by the weasels and taken into Toontown, where they give him a "Toon-a-roo" (paint a cartoon face over your real one, in this case a pig). Eddie goes home and, using turpentine and paint remover, washes the pig-head off in the shower. During this sequence, Jessica enters his apartment (and the bathroom) and begins a conversation with him, the second part of which (after Eddie is partially dressed) is in the theatrical cut of the film. The theatrical cut tries to cover-up the missing footage by placing a toilet flush on the soundtrack as Eddie exits his bathroom. This deleted scene is included as a special feature on the DVD.
  
  
• Originally, the Alyson Wonderland graffiti in the bathroom was followed by a phone number, rumored to be either Michael Eisner's or Jeffrey Katzenberg's home number. For later video releases it was replaced with "The best is yet to be!".
