Here's the Tiki Bob scene in "Big Eyes":

This shot from my laptop screen has no shadow detail, so I zoomed in on the many Tiki Bob's props in the shot:

There are THREE posters in the background showing the Tiki Bob cartoon and font

There's also a coaster on the bar:

  • all these, while using the correct drawing and font, are not based on original ephemera. One wonders why they used Harvey's Fogcutter mugs and not Tiki Bobs. The whole place is not that impressive, it looks like someone's home bar.

Nice A-frame home:

I was kinda underwhelmed by the movie, it's like a very straight forward bio pic. And why did they pic this German dude as Keane? He seems to fake it from the start.
