Is this a good place to put this? Maybe. Hear me out: Dead Money is the plot of Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988). The Dip is the equivalent to The Cloud, Roger Rabbit is Frederick Sinclair, Jessica Rabbit is Vera Keyes, Marvin Acme is Dean Domino. Similar aesthetics. Both stories follow a scandal involving adultery/a love triangle. Vera and Jessica Rabbit are both famous for being beautiful performers, and Sinclair/Roger are both in love with them (somewhat foolishly). Dean/Acme are both the threat, with Dean controlling Vera's actions and breaking her and Acme being part of the adultery scandal that threatens Jessica's validity. Although Roger Rabbit doesn't have nuclear fallout, the comparisons can be with the cloud and the dip. The Dip is questionable in legality and used to eliminate toons, but the only people who know about how terrible it is are toons. The Cloud is an experiment performed by Big Mountain scientists that is designed to be harmful, but the workers at the Sierra Madre who are exposed to it don't understand the effects of it (similar to how Roger Rabbit in his stupidity isn't sure what's going on for a while).
Anyways this is fantastic duh
