Title: Zootopia
Post by: Avaitor on June 13, 2015, 06:27:40 PM
Disney's next animated feature, it's teaser has been released early. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9lmhBYB11U)

I actually have been avoiding this, to the point that I instantly paused the video when I hit the link. But it's about time that this has its own thread, which is why I'm posting it. But yeah, you'll see this when you go to Inside Out, even if you aren't checking it out yet.

Thoughts? The reception is pretty mixed, thus far.

I will probably have no strong feelings until I see an actual trailer and not a teaser. Though I did think it was kinda funny that they explained what the word "anthropomorphic" meant.

It looks pretty neat.

That "be-fur" pun is just awful, though.

Why have you been avoiding the teaser?

I'm looking forward to the movie.

I don't like watching teasers or trailers, at least not for movies I know that I want to see. I want to come in as unspoiled as possible.

She's a pop star voiced by Shakira.

I'm not joking.

Interesting that they went with a whole clip for a trailer, but it was pretty funny. Really like the voice acting and animation for the lead characters. The sloth gags didn't drag despite being as obvious as they were, and I especially loved the slow reaction the sloth has to the joke when his face slowly becomes a open-mouth smile. That was the funniest part of the clip for me. I'm looking forward to this one.

This and the Angry Birds Movie actually look funny so far.

So you guys probably know my stand on trailers. Basically, I'll just wait until I see Good Dinosaur before I catch this.

But I've heard this scene being mentioned as a highlight from the film before, so I'm not too surprised that they chose it as a teaser. And boy, does the reception seem to be mixed for it.

New trailer! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWM0ct-OLsM)

This time, we finally get a plot-focused trailer rather than more gags.

So an upstart with fluffy hair tricks the public into thinking the minority is the enemy using outdated biology and age-old racial fears, all in a bid to win a seat of power. I see what you did, Disney.

I liked it though.

This might be the best film of the revival yet.

Also, Walt and Jesse.

A couple of the people in the theater I went to laughed at that reference.

Man, what a good film about racism. Judy Hopps did nothing wrong, she is a victim of her upbringing and her parents' over protectiveness. :^) In all seriousness though, it's kinda clever that they used predator/prey relationship for races and all that, it made the whole thing ambiguous since you can't solely place what one racial trait on the predator/prey food chain.

PS Flash is best character despite his scene being used in trailers, but his other appearance man, it explains so much.

Here are my revival rankings to date:

1- The Princess and the Frog
2- Zootopia
3- Big Hero 6
4- Wreck-It Ralph
5- Frozen
6- Tangled
7- Winnie the Pooh

I watched TPATF again a week or two ago, and realized that while I really appreciate everything Zootopia accomplished, I still like it slightly more, but they both have so much to offer. And I can't wait to see what Moana will be like. And I'm pretty burned out on the other 2 princess movies (that's never been one of my favorite sects of Disney to begin with), but there's one or two things that I still prefer from Frozen over Tangled. They're about the same in my eyes, though. And if I was to add them, Meet the Robinsons would probably be around the middle, and Bolt at the end.

Anyway, we're getting the Blu on June 7, and I'm getting this version (http://www.target.com/p/zootopia-target-exclusive-blu-ray-dvd-digital-hd/-/A-51090296?clkid=4b668143N21d6693b40a1a499f5bc6a46&lnm=81938&afid=stitchkingdom&ref=tgt_adv_xasd0002). This release already has more bonuses than Disney's recent releases, but I'd gladly take even more.

I finally watched this movie for the first time... a friend of mine has been recommending it to me since it came out... and I never got around to it. Not because I was avoiding it, but it just went on "the list". We all know "the list", we all have our own version of "the list."

But I was just lying back on my couch, scrolling through Disney+, saw it there, said why not, and clicked play.

Wonderful movie. I think my favorite thing about it was the creative use of scale... that was delightful. I predicted the main villain fairly early on, no idea if it's because I am good at picking up patterns in screenplays or maybe I had it spoiled for me ages ago; but it was really, really well done.
