I like how Gideon very obviously went to some sort of therapy by the time we see him later in the movie. It was a clever twist on the cliche bully character
I REALLY like that the writers included Gideon using clearly "therapy-ish" language and not using it as the basis for a mean-spirited joke. Like, it's a little funny as a subversion of the stock bully character, but he still gets to learn and make amends and end up kinder and happier.
Alright so why the heck were judy's parents planting plants that make predators turn crazy?
In the film it’s explained that they also act as a type of insect deterrent/insecticide
(At least that’s what I can remember, I haven’t seen the movie since it came out and that was a while ago)
@@whiskey-4208 Considering what it does to animals in general, wouldn't it actually do the exact opposite?
@@Lordo-kt6fu who knows tbh
@@Lordo-kt6fu | Insect anatomy is wildly different from mammal anatomy, and what works on one only really works on the other if it's dead simple (like basic poison.)
Therefore the plant presumably evolved its drug to dissuade hungry animals, and scent to ward off hungry insects.
@@Lordo-kt6fu did you know that caffeine (yes that stuff in your daily latte) is an insecticide? The key here is the dosage. For a teeny tiny bug, a bite is enough to kill them but to us a few hundred times more massive it makes our brain feel good lol
Just to clarify for everyone, I really do enjoy this movie. I might have come off as more harsh or dismissive than I intended for the sake of humor. ALSO, when I said Judy was the "only herbivore in the police force", I had Beastars on the mind. I meant she was discriminated due to her size. I finished Beastars season 2 right before making this video, so it completely bypassed my double check of the script. Apologies, and I hope you all enjoy.
Don't beat yourself over it, your right. Its like everything else you watch as a kid. I remember He-Man being this end all, be all of my childhood to watch it now wondering, "This is garbage by garbage standards" then find out this sweet story about how the animators were trying to keep the studio alive. Being an adult doesn't make you less appreciative of it, you just get more data and just because a story is generic doesn't mean its not well executed.
You were 14? I was 16. Damn, it feels weird when a UA-camr is younger than you.
It really does nigga
@@benjaminwatson7868 that sentence is beautiful
I was, um... 31, and in Russia
Damn, I was 18 at that time
Get used to that. They keep coming and you're not getting younger.
"being the only herbivore in the police force"
pans to a buffalo.
I thought that. The film specifically says "the only bunny", and maybe we can imply that means she's the only herbivore of her height class in the police service? As a tangent, I really like how the film plays with the varied heights of animals, unlike us boring furries who all are human scale because people want fursuits.
"Cartoonishly evil" they're exactly like the kind of kids I knew growing up.
"Worst scene, movie made me angry" that's the point.
The fact muzzles exist that civilians can buy kind if implies they are sex toys, like pink, fluffy handcuffs are.
Keyword: you. Almost every other person I've spoken to agreed on one thing; bullies are not as dumb and shallow as movies make them seem. They knew how to emotionally and psychologically scar their victims without putting themselves at risk of being called out and turned on by the others. They knew how to subtly insult us and make us feel small, all the while hiding it under the guise of "compliments" or "small talk" so that any 3rd party would consider us sensitive or delusional if we tried to call it out. But they made sure the victim got the message and never got peace. So yeah, movies watering it down to "bunch of mean jocks push you, crack an immature joke, laugh about it and then leave you" is something victims can and will be angry about. Bullying is almost never full-on casting someone out and refusing to interact with them, it's usually allowing them near enough to you but making sure they know you don't like them and think of them as subordinate to you and your friends.
You missed something. Judy's not the only herbivore on the force. She's the only bunny. They discount her because she's so tiny. There are several other herbivores (rhino's, hippo's, elephants, the chief is a bull...)
"The only herbivore" *pictured, judy punching the shit out of a rhino*
I was about to comment the same thing, but then scrolled through the comments to see if he acknowledged that.
He did.
one comment up from me seeing this is the cursed judge saying "yea i messed up cuz the anime" basically
It's a bit odd to say that there are too many "false utopia" stories since that's kinda the point of *any* utopia story. If you don't like utopia stories, think they're overplayed or whatever, that's totally fine. But framing it like the dark reality hidden under the glamour is the problem is like saying dystopian stories should stop being about rebellion because it's overplayed. That's kinda where the entire plot of those kinds of stories come from. Like it's not an aspect of the trope that's the problem, you're just tired of the trope as a whole. Which, again, is totally fine, it's just a difference worth recognizing
Exactly, if you actually have a Utopia, you don't have a story.
Stories need conflict.
Utopias are a society where there is no conflict.
@@PlanetZoidstar I mean arguably it doen't remove conflict as long as there is a world outside the utopia, that the utopia is a part of a larger world then a utopia can be a facet of the worldbuilding and narative rather than encompassing the whole. My personal favorite being the Culture series, although there is an argument to be made that it too is a false utopia, if not due to some shady underworld, seacret police or seacret govenment, but in the centeral politie's, delegation of power to AI and it's military interventions which while statistically reduce sentient suffering are still not without violence, disaperances and a general hint of not neciceral being the will of the people.
To accentuate you point further, it is worth pointing out that Utopia/false utopia stories aren't a trope, but a genre. Though, I'm not entirely sold that Zootopia _is_ a false utopia story. The crux of the genre is the fact that utopia is literally impossible, so the author sets up a supposed utopia and asks "what goes wrong with this one." They are, in essence, dystopias in disguise. In a utopia, the public believes the world is perfect and the leaders either believe the world is perfect (utopia) or pretend the world is perfect (dystopia).
In Zootopia, Judy believes that Zootopia is an idyllic city, but this is treated as a naivety, a character flaw. Many characters openly acknowledge that it has flaws, including the chief of police. Even Judy doesn't believe it is perfect, otherwise she never would have joined a police force to protect the people from an evil that must clearly exist within them for them to need a police force.
In a false utopia, the antagonist is the leader(s) and government acting within the rules of their society (even if those rules aren't fully known to the public [e.g., The Giver]. In Zootopia, the villain is an authority figure, but she is acting outside of the established rules of her position and is a candidate for arrest once exposed. Her lackeys are criminals who also act fully outside of the established rules of society. She does not represent a failure of the system, but a failure to maintain the system.
In a false utopia, there is something fundamentally broken about the foundations of the society. In Zootopia, the foundations of society remain intact (and attempts to disrupt them are treated as wrong by the protagonists and the film itself). The conflict is not that the world is broken, but that some people hold bad principles: which is true of any film. Victory is not dismantling the government, but returning to the status quo, which would be a tragic ending in a false utopia story.
So really, the issue here is not with the trope or the genre, but with something even more foundational: the form of conflict. Every story needs conflict, and there are really only four kinds (man vs. self, man vs. nature, man vs. man, and man vs. society). Man vs. society is the standard in Utopia and Dystopia, but it is also the most common type in modern American media, so it makes sense that one might get burnt out on it.
Uhhh. You can definitely have stories where a Utopia, or something close to it, is threatened and it's up to the characters to prevent escalation or to fix it. Not every Utopian story needs it to be "oh no it's actually NOT an utopia", just seems pessimistic if that was the case.
The whole intrigue of putting conflict in an (real) Utopian setting is because the setting and the people in it seem so unfamiliar and unprepared for the conflict but they are not fighting against "all the odds" like they would in a controlled state dystopia/false Utopia but instead the state and the population themselves both want to solve the problem, or in the case of Zootopia, one needs to help the system despite itself.
I don't think Zootopia is a false utopia tho it just seems like TheFansOfFiction said, the whole plot is about prevent the Utopia from falling apart even if given real world context the ending would probably not have fixed much.
I never even got it that Zootopia was supposed to be an Utopia I thought it was just a regular place.
Love this channel and this particular video isn’t written to be objective, he’s analyzing what interested him and what put him off. Like the comments on utopias, the whole video follows the trend of him pointing out tropes he’s tired of, often giving reasons why he is.
7:00 I always though it was due to the fact that Nick was watching Judy get met with the same treatment he got when he was a kid, and he was stepping up to the be the person he wished he had when he was a kid, thus why he opened up about that exact experience in the next scene
Beastars ost still slaps harder than dad
What dad, weeb?
Zootopia feels much more recent to me than Inside Out. If you had asked me I'd've said Zootopia came out in 2018 or something. 2015 for Inside Out feels about right though.
That fox apologizing to Judy with such elaborate vocabulary was a small glimpse into the regret he felt for treating her so poorly. It was well rehearsed so he’d obviously been feeling that way for a while and planning his words
I don't know if you missed it or didn't think it to be important, but the traincar druglab was pretty much a reference to breaking bad. It's a traincar instead of an RV, sure, but the gas mask, the setting, the synthethising of some chemical all point to that. Not to mention, there's dialogue which says "Woolter and Jesse are back".
And the cook is a sheep
breaking baaaaa-d
I was surprised he didn't mention that
Still hilarious that pretty much everyone missed the breaking bad references with the drug lab and the names of the rams who ran it
True! I didn't even watch BB, but I got it!
My thought on why Nick defended Judy from getting fired was simply that in the beginning it was oh a missing otter, whatever, this isn't that serious. To holy crap this dude just attacked us, has now disappeared and the police don't believe me or Judy. And we are the only two who know about it.
Having all the employees at the DMV be sloths works great because it gives a reason why the place is slow that kids can understand without having to know what a DMV is.
6:43 accidentally describes one of the many major problems with Bioshock Infinite.
It's not that everyone sucks. It's that anyone may or may not suck regardless of their race. That's why the lion wasn't as bad as he seemed, the sheep was plain evil, & the former bully just needed to learn to deal with his emotional damage in a healthier way that's not harmful to the people around him, which he eventually did. It also shows that any race can cause a member of any other race to act out when racism is being flung in all directions.
so happy this channel moved on to game analysis, wayyyy better at that then movies lol
True. This video was mostly for fun though to be honest
I rewatched it too,
about 4 times.
"It's for children" isn't an excuse but at the same time, there are only so many times we can make anything before it's been done to the point it becomes infair to compare it to past iterations.
If we wanted to get nitpicky on that level, almost every story is just derivative of what we consider basically the 7 roots of all storytelling and nothing is unique.
That doesn't make everything bad, and after a couple hundred thousand years of humans telling stories to eachother, originality is naturally scarce.
Also, just because something has animal characters and is animated, that doesn't necessarily mean it's "made for" young kids.
Its not the fact that it has animals and is animated, it's the fact that it's a Disney movie. They primarily market their movies to children, because that's where they get the most profit. They secondarily make parts that appeal to older ages in order to get some of the runoff and make it tolerable for the parents to watch.
Your opinion is ok, but your pfp is a furry, so it's worthless
@@gabrielbarros493 💀ur watching a zootopia video what were you expecting
@@William_Nowin I was expecting kids, not people who *think* they're kids
fuck hell, I just reliased I've got to the age, when some good youtubers are younger than me, instead of all of them being older
This is like my favourite video ever. An adult contemplating his life choices after watching Zootopia, this is the stuff I live for 💪😎
tbh I want them to make a sequel to this movie where they explore those "tame collars" they had in the initial concept for it. I always found that story interesting, even as a little kid.
maaan the beastars music is so iconic after watching the show
I would really love to see a similar video about the sequel of puss in boots. That film was stunningly well made and the characters all had their own thought out personalities. Even thopugh it was also made for kids it was extremely well made and had a deep storyline. Great video!
Local cop starts race war
Fun fact, Zootopia is called zootropolis in the uk
And in several other countries, it seems. I think there was an actual zoo in, I want to say Denmark, that already had a trademark on the name. Of course, what trademarks exist in other countries never stops the Americans, just look at The Avengers or Apple Music.
The Avengers had to be renamed Avengers Assemble in the UK to not clash with a serial TV programme called The Avengers. Apple Music... apparently Apple Computers had fuck-off money to pay lawyers and the label that published The Beatles didn't? I really don't know how that one survived...
"I was 14 when this movie came out"
Oh no. I am old.
Same.
@Twix the Fox
Name and avatar are fitting, oh whoa!
@@jameswalker199 Yup! After the artist I worked with and I were done designing the sona, we all decided on Twix, and it fit because! Plus it's also my favorite candy bar :3 Been using Twix since 2015 and have no plans on changing :D
I have my own fursuit of him too! Just a pizza lovin' chubby dood :P
Dw, not all furries have fursuits.
This is the best video watched by far!
Idk if this will show up post premier but this was made pre premier.
"Being the only herbivore in the police force..." then goes on to show a Rhino and African Buffalo...
Two persona / shin mega I references. (One is with music) you had me hooked before. Now you’ve reeled me in!
Nice video! Unlike in the movie, my favorite parts were the little quips like the one at 3:57. Looking forward to more of your stuff!
I love how you used the beastars soundtrack for this video
AYO BEASTARS
Wait, Zootopia only came out in 2016?!?
Boy, does it feel like forever ago. I was seven at that time.
dude, are you born in 2009?
@@ananasik986 2008, but close enough
I was 17. To me it feels like it's a fresh new thing like no time has passed at all
i fucking love this channel, hope to see more.
Great video, but i think i slightly diaagree about the press conference scene. Judy is a rookie cop at this point with probably zero media training, suddenly thrown into the spotlight. With no real answer to the question she's asked, she speculates on stage and regresses to her unconscious biases (which were engrained in her at a young age by, among probably other things, the bullying by Gideon) in doing so without really the experience to know what her words will do. This happens in real life all the time and, speaking for myself, I found it very relateable.
Also, the movie was called Zootropolis in my country, so it's interesting the idea of the capital being a utopia was kind of lost there, and it makes me wonder if that was intentional in the first place.
Oh Damn I guess most of your vids use the beastars ost! Love it!
Ok. I need to watch this film... but the "this is irrational behaviour" actually sums up most humans I know. XD
4:17 "being the only herbivore in the police force" while showing a rhino
A false utopia is literally a dystopia. It's not a trope, it's a genre.
Honestly, everything could be a false utopia if you think about it. The grass is always greener on the other side, all that glitters is not gold, probably lots more turns of phrase have come about to describe the phenomenon of "thing that looks good from afar has bad things on closer inspection".
Not really, Utopia and Dystopia are both extremes, there is a middle ground where place isn't a real Utopia but still isn't awful enough to be a Dystopia, I'd even argue that Zootopia is that exact case - the system is undeniably flawed, but it's far from an oppressive totalitarian regime akin to 1984
That being said false utopia itself is definetly a genre, you can't really have a story about real utopia since there's no story to be had in one, so i still agree with your point for the most part
Dystopian fiction is a very tired and overused 'genre,' to the point that you could make any environment seem like a dystopia. Even the United Federation of Planets from Star Trek could be a dystopia in someone's eyes, despite the fact that living in such a society would essentially be paradise. Anyone's ideal view of civilization could be someone else's nightmare, hence why dystopian fiction is so immense as it is amorphous, uninspired, cliched, and idiotic.
ayo don't clown on my boy gideon he bettered himself through therapy and channeling his emotions into constructive pursuits like baking
This was a fantastic video, loved it
So glad!
No one:
*Mat Pat watches this movie*
also mat pat: and I took offence to that
I'm glad parts of the fanbase are adjusting parts or completely rewriting the entire film, though the original film definitely got me interested in themes revolving around political issues way back then. Just hope Zootopia 2 (as writers have announced on Twitter) fixes some of these issues (which it likely won't considering Disney's/Pixar's recent films).
Man I fear they'll baby-fy it to the max T .T
Something something at least they won't do it to the Tarzan remake?
I've never seen this movie but the rul34 for it is fire
How is Judy the only herbivore in the police department? Togo is a buffalo! Francine is an elephant! Also, lions don't have stripes.
the critique also kinda depends on what you look for. want a movie in intriguing dialogue and not a plot as generic as can be? then Zootopia is not for you. you want just a fun movie and not think of it too much? Zootopia's pretty great
You knew exactly what you were doing when you used the Beastars soundtrack as the background music
She's very obvoiusly not the only herbavore in the PD my man
My tea her in middle school made us watch this anytime we couldn’t go out for recess
Bro i watched this when i was like 8 or 9 it scared the shit out of me in the jungle scene
I really love it when the subtle adult jokes are just thrown in there in a blink-and-you-miss-it sort of deal, like the part Mr Big implies Judy is a stripper.
The panther scene gave my sister nightmares for weeks.
im crying
amazing
oh I watched this already
just got to the end too alright
The reason they made Jenny (The Ewe) the villain at the end is to show that even the innocuous and generally nonthreatening can be just as if not more maliciously malevolent. It's not the appearance of the individual but the integrity, honesty, and heart of their character.
Also she's a good example of why you never trust people who call 'themselves' you're friends. Think about it a little boyo.
it was good
I’m sad that you didn’t mention that the drug lab near the end was a breaking bad reference
Damn, I was 14 too when this movie came out.
1:16 And that’s how I found out I’m the same age as Cursed Judge, and Jesus Christ what am I doing with my life 😂
I did it too
I did it three
I did it four
Have you ever read the deleted script, with the shock collars and the underground amusement park? Its much more interesting
Oh hey I watched that inside vid .... No idea how I got a hold of it but I had a copy downloaded on my desktop
Think I downloaded it by accident I do that sometimes
Wait, this movie was released how long ago? Oh god.
*How to feel old 101*
Wait when? Like what 2 years ago?
@@CertifiedWTRPerson it was released in 2016
i'm not sure how they got away with making the twist villain an ewe

"it's been copyrighted 19 times in a row"
Classic youtube bullshit.
11:25 it's... breaking baaaaa-d
get it?
you should review the original story of zootopia
am i 2 years late to the watch party?
omg, you are my age. Don't know what to think about that. Also pretty cool review with rational criticism
WHAT THE HELL I NEVER KNEW THAT THE FILM WAS ACTUALLY CALLED "ZOOTROPOLIS" AND NOT "ZOOTOPIA"
4:15 She's not the only herbivore in the police.
Have you ever noticed how there are no monkeys?
4:23 shes not the only herbivore shes just little
As a 14 year old I can relate to your 14 year old safe. Uptop
Ah yes crack cocaine
What are you, like...10 years old?

that's basically just the spongebob theory
@@TheCursedJudge oh i never heard of that
I can
Damn, I guess I got lucky. Watched the Bo Burnham special before it got copyrighted.
Question
WHY SCIENTIST DIDN'T FOUND OUT THAT THE VICTIMS WERE UNDER THE EFFECTS OF A DRUG
LIKE DID NO ONE THINK TO DO A BLOOD EXAM!?
It is an interesting question, but I'm not certain you can find a specific drug unless you test for that specific drug, and this one was novel at the time of the incidents
@@TheCursedJudge You can't find the specific drug, but you can generally see that there's something weird going on. That being said there are substances that are untraceable after just few hours, so it could just be one of the rare cases
In case anyone wanted to watch it, EA play is today
this is the exact moment The Cursed Judge became a furry
I can't stop getting a uh a uh uh uhh uuhh uhh
wtf I’ve never even heard of zootopia how is it that successful
It's a Disney film, of course it's that successful, how'd you not hear of it or see it in shops for sale/cinema on release? I assumed Disney has control the world's entertainment after nearly a century so every country got everything.
@@Roadent1241 You see, despite the success of the movie, disney barely bothered to make merchandise nor do anything with the IP up until now with Zootopia+ and the sequel announcement on a fucking earnings call of all places. All we got post 2016 was a couple of comics made by dark horse on 2019 and a mobile game based on those crime files games that got canned in the middle of it's story because the studio who made it went bankrupt (which I have to say, the writing and the characters there absolutely carried that thing despite being your average trash object finder mobile game, it's painful to me that those characters are gonna be forgotten, rip Chuckles my beloved)
This thing does not apply to Asian countries though, they REALLY liked the movie and got pretty much all the merchandise and even got the Zootopia theme park on Shanghai iirc.
Oh my god the Owl movie. I remember watching it. But I completly lost the content.
Ga'hoole?
oh mannn I forgot that mc had my name, this feels weird to watch lol
LOL
not a fan of furry stuff but zootopia and beastars are pretty gud
So... Yeah. You are a fan. Those are literally furry contents
Bro you clearly live somewhere safe if you think that don’t happen cuz of racism
No. It doesn't. You just live in a bad place if it does
