Coonskin: Difference between revisions

* [[Fan Disservice]]: Just about every depiction of nudity and sex is intentionally repulsive. Except when Bakshi throws in his usual big-breasted women, of course. Though some of it can have a [[Misaimed Fandom]] in [[Fan Yay|gay men]] who like [[Chub|chubs]].

* [[Framing Device]]: Samson and Preacher are trying to bust Randy out of prison in a [[Great Escape]] while Poppy tells Randy stories about Brother Rabbit.

* [["I Am" Song]]: Satirically done in the opening credits song "Ah'm a Nigger Man."

* [[Keep Circulating the Tapes]]: Before it was released on DVD, it could be only be found through torrents and out of print VHS tapes.

** Not just any cockroach and rat, but [[Archy and Mehitabel (Literature)|archy]] and [[Krazy Kat|Ignatz]]!

* [[Roger Rabbit Effect]]

** A cockroach named Malcolm also appears in Bakshi's later shorts ''Malcolm and Melvin'' and ''Babe, He Calls Me''.

* [[Shown Their Work]]: Ralph not only did his research for this movie, many African-American viewers remarked that they couldn't believe that this was written and directed by a white guy, as much of it rang true for them in its portrayal of how blacks have been treated both in the United States and by the film industry.

* [[Ugly Guys Hot Daughter]]: The Sheriff and his daughter.

* [[Uncle Tomfoolery]]: Several of the background characters.
