Fun fact, the two leads were drunk most of that movie because, well, because they were the two leads in that movie.

The directors, yes two of them, were horrible to work with according to pretty much everyone that worked on it.

To be fair to Morton and Jankel, they had never directed a big budget feature film before. All of their experience was in TV

Spare a thought for the animatronic Yoshi who remained stone cold sober for the entire shoot.

That thing was so cool, and disappointing, at the same time. We didn't care though, we were kids. It was awesome.

I like to imagine Bob Hoskins was a fun drunk

I’d sincerely like to think so; between Mario Bros., Hook and Who Framed Roger Rabbit - Bob Hoskins is a foundational part of my childhood..

I picture him as a fun cross between Capt Hook and Eddie (from Roger Rabbit) when drunk. Im down for it.

I wonder if he was still dabbling in water colors.
