Jessica is considered by some to be the world's sexiest cartoon character since Tex Avery's "Red Hot Riding Hood".

Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jessica_Rabbit"

The above sentence is potentially weasely as it does not cite sources or specify who 'some' are supposed to be.

Would someone knowledgeable be able to clarify? does 'Some' refer to her fans? to fans of 'Who framed Roger Rabbit'? to an internet poll?

The line should be removed, it's obviously POV. She was obviously drawn to be sexy, but until we get a panel of experts on this, the line's gone.--Agent Aquamarine 00:51, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Response

I'd like to know that too. Who wrote the article, anyway? They forgot about The Little Mermaid when mentioning the sexiest cartoons. Nevertheless and notwithstanding, where I come from, a lot of men kept in their gem collection stickers featuring Jessica. I mean, some of them probably don't even know her name (That's probably due to the fact that the poeple who make those stickers don't even bother to keep Jessica's original colors), but if you ask them, they would answer without hesitation "She is the sexiest cartoon ever". Back to the article, "Some" is most likely to be an euphemism for "the author of this [Jessica Rabbit's] article". --Plavalagunanbanshee 15:35, 15 September 2005 (UTC) (Look at the post I made at T-x discussion!) Hey, I recently discovered a lot of truck drivers have Jessica (as a sticker, of course) pasted on the windows of their trucks. Turns out, Jessica is as traditional as that commonly seen image of Calvin (from Calvin and Hobbes) peeing (we don't actually see his penis, we see him from the back :P). Anyway, the Jessica in the stickers is not the same as the one in the movie. For the sake of those nasty truck drives, her secondary sex characteristics have been exaggerated (her boobs are way bigger), and also she's never drawn correctly (the perverts who draw her probably have no artistic training); the Jessica depicted in the article is not the one from the movie, it's the truck version. The colors are also big giveaways: The true Jessica wears purple gloves. I found another disturbing article on poor Jessica. [1]!

[edit] Article tone

Is it just me, or do most of the sections in this article seem to be written as if they're an advertisement, and aren't neutral enough for Wikipedia's standards?60.240.207.206 13:36, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

how so? i just ran through this the other day, didn't notice it. Bouncehoper 04:36, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] question about "frankenstein"

Ok, I can understand why that pargraph (Jessica is the Frankenstein of all these different actresses) might be considered POV, but if I remember correctly, there is in fact some truth to the statement--that the animators set out to pick the best features from old-time actresses to make one bombshell. Will sniff and see if I can find it--does this sound familiar to anyone else? Bouncehoper 04:50, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
