Hi guys!

I, too, am a big Roger Rabbit fan! This release will be great once it's finished. It actually made me join the boards! (Though I came to poke around looking for what original version and DC fan preservation Blade Runner DVDs I should try to get- It's so confusing!)

However, you guys talk about uncensoring the scene where Jessica is thrown from Benny.. but don't talk at all about the bigger censor- The scene where Baby Herman gooses the girl under her dress. (He goes 'Excuse me, toots!' in that scene.) They talk about it in the commentary. The first DVD was pretty censored I read, but apparently the Vista release is less censored. Though I believe they remove his finger or somesuch.

Both of these scenes are on the old VHS (boo VHS!).

Anyway, to get to the point- I have mad experience in graphic design and such. I'd be willing to redraw the Baby Herman frames if someone gets a clean copy of them from the Vista Release, as well as a decent recording from the VHS (so I have something to go by.) I actually have the VHS, but I don't think I have a working VCR.

I would also be willing to redo the Jessica frames, too, if someone has the original DVD release. But that'd actually be a lot easier considering it would just require recoloring the frames from white to skin color.

EDIT: I feel dumb offering after reading through OCPMovie's Thief and the Cobbler thread. If he's working on this, he's more than capable of fixing that scene.
