My favorite part about this Zootopia Honest trailer is that Screen Junkies seems to be having a hard time finding a lot of stuff to snark on. Zootopia is just that good!
The trailer does riff on how the movie delivers difficult messages about class, race, and systemic injustice in a package that’s undeniably appealing for kids, but in my opinion, that’s one of Zootopia‘s biggest strengths. Screen Junkies also touches on Zootopia‘s appeal to furries, the way the movie reinforces some animal stereotypes, and Zootopia‘s potential to make a great Law and Order spinoff: Paw and Order, brought to you by Dick Actual-Wolf. Screen Junkies also ask the hard questions about all the animals’ anatomy (or lack thereof), and whether or not Nick and Judy are romantically involved with each other at the end of the movie (a definite no, in my opinion).
Zootopia comes out on DVD tomorrow and stars Ginnifer Goodwin, Jason Bateman, Idris Elba, and Jenny Slate. You can check out a synopsis below:
From the largest elephant to the smallest shrew, the city of Zootopia is a mammal metropolis where various animals live and thrive. When Judy Hopps (Ginnifer Goodwin) becomes the first rabbit to join the police force, she quickly learns how tough it is to enforce the law. Determined to prove herself, Judy jumps at the opportunity to solve a mysterious case. Unfortunately, that means working with Nick Wilde (Jason Bateman), a wily fox who makes her job even harder.
