>Jessica is an evil slut that helped get roger killed
>Roger is the bad guy all along and his own murderer
These are both wrong. Jessica had nothing to do with Roger's death, and Roger didn't kill himself.
Roger was killed by the genie he accidentally summoned. The difference between Jessica in the movie and in the book is in the movie she's in love with Roger, in the book she only married and stayed with Roger because she was influenced by the genie's powers. She's not evil, she just left a relationship where she actively disliked the guy, but was forced to stay with him and act like she loved him due to magic. In her own words, she thought Roger was "a turkey", and left the moment the magic was no longer controlling her.
Roger wasn't a bad guy, even if he originally planned to commit a crime. Both Roger and Eddie had a lot of respect for each other by the end. The genie was the bad guy, he killed multiple people and only wanted to kill more. Roger isn't evil for magically claiming Jessica either, since he was completely unaware he was summoning the genie, and genuinely thought she had fallen in love with him.

How would you feel about a Roger Rabbit remake that covers the book more?
