Title: Zootopia
Post by: J on April 16, 2016, 11:54:40 PM
Fuking hell.... This movie is consuming my life. I clearly need help.

Movie has been out for a while now- Whatever.

Discuss the movie that secretly makes you regret watching it, knowing full well you'd go and randomly make a topic on it/expecting a bunch of bullsh** from other members

Oh, and the whole movie is really fuking adorable.

=D

Because the ERUPTION is enough to put MLP to shame and the MLP fandom is a RIPOFF of the furry fandom anyway and I think that Zootopia will take its place or the TOON that one person will constantly spam to the point where it loses its BEAUTY that some people used to think of it.

And I hope someone got the joke I made with the bold words

The reason why MLP was allowed to get as cancerous as it did was because it's a long running series. Same thing happened with Steven Universe. It was good bants for a season or 2 before the whole "haha I'm watching a show for little girls, isn't that so ironic?" joke got old.

Zootopia is a single movie, so it's likely not going to get it's foot in the door as much as MLP did.

All I've seen for this is a trailer and I have no clue what it's supposed to be. The only other thing I've seen is the quick video YourMovieSucks did on it. He referred to it as "The Furry Movie" (which imo seems about right) and he said the film was decent.

...I kinda have nothing else to add; I don't really know anything about this movie.

I'll see it when it comes to DVD.
The DVD version plans to include bonus footage, and otherwise cut content. Or something like that.
I mean, the whole movie itself has a really interesting backstory to how things were originally intended, and that is partially why I'm so fascinated with it; I want to know more about the older versions of the film, but the best we got is just bits and pieces in this documentary:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hiu3qJi0aPY (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hiu3qJi0aPY)

...And it really makes more of the movie stand out.

OK... But they're not adding anything whatsoever. There's no reason to post those other than "I really like the movie." We could be drawn to that conclusion from about 1 or 2 gifs in the same post.

Also, if you're gonna keep posting gifs, be careful of anything spoiler-y or anything. I had a Fire Emblem Fates gif in my signature that I realized was a slight spoiler to an in-game event and I didn't want to spoil anything, so I removed it. I assume you wouldn't want to spoil anything for anyone either.

In all seriousness he's trying to say that it's best if these obsessions are kept to yourself, or at the very least, aren't shoved in other people's faces.

I was turned off from watching Big Hero 6 because Baymax is clearly Disney pandering to people with an inflation fetish.
I was turned off from watching Wreck-It Ralph because Disney is clearly pandering to basement dwelling neckbeards.

Dude, your fussing over the movie, over a reason that isn't even related to you, nor does it effect you, in any way/shape/form. Just enjoy the movie for what it is, and leave it at that O,o

On topic, this movie seems interesting enough for me to at least watch it illegally online. However, one thing I keep hearing is "Really good worldbuilding", if that's it's only selling point then i'm a bit worried. I want to be proven wrong, however.
What they mean by this, is the fact they play around with the scale of things throughout the whole movie.
This scene for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiWz1l0GarQ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiWz1l0GarQ)
(It's basically a trailer, shoosh)

It's a chase scene through a fukin' mouse city, and Judy tries not to step on anyone/anything.

Went to watch this with a few 16-18 year olds. We all liked it.

I felt like there was something missing though. I think I wanted a bit more dialogue.

Also, the movie picked up the pace really quickly about half-way through and I didn't expect it; threw me off entirely.

Anyone is allowed NOT to watch a movie if they so wish and you don't have to get mad over it if they don't agree with your opinion.
If they don't like it because they think it because they think it panders to furries then that's their opinion.
Also if they keep on saying they DON'T wan't to watch it over and over then persuading most likely won't help.

I'm afraid it's not a valid argument to use opinion when Red said it so matter-of-factly. He was imposing his opinion, not stating it, by insinuating that there was clear pandering to furries. It's fine for him to dislike a trailer if he believes there is pandering to furries but he shouldn't be stating it as if it's an objective fact.

I'm afraid it's not a valid argument to use opinion when Red said it so matter-of-factly. He was imposing his opinion, not stating it, by insinuating that there was clear pandering to furries. It's fine for him to dislike a trailer if he believes there is pandering to furries but he shouldn't be stating it as if it's an objective fact.
Kinda' sorta' what I was getting at.
The movie only seems like its pandering, but it honestly isn't.
Hell... Disney has always made movies about anthro animals/etc. Dunno' what makes those any different from Zootopia.

Literally any movie that has talking animals could be pandering to furries.

I have no issues with anthropomorphic animals, unless:

-it becomes creepy
-it becomes fetishized
-fans of anthropomorphic animals bring them into unrelated forums/discussions
-fans of anthropomorphic animals stir sh** and drama about other people not liking them

some people in the forum may recognize what i am talking about

Of course, this looks like typical mindless cute, feel-good stuff, so nope.
pretty much my opinion on MLP fans:

-You're a fan of it? alright
-You have an avatar of it? ok
-You feel the need to post your pony stuff everywhere and see references in things that clearly aren't references? get out.

I could do a comment here about how Red's argument is not valid and how he's just seeing something negatively(possibly because he thinks that something he dislikes is something everyone in the fandom does?) but I'd rather not risk my reputation.

As for the movie, haven't watched it yet but I do plan to do that somehow, looks like a good movie which only has the problem of each movie, limited time, so expect a slow intro and then for it to suddenly start and get into action with the usual movie negative and positive events.

Yeah, the musical score kinda carried that movie...
I'm probably gonna see Zootopia, actually. I think it looks rather well made.

I like this thread so I'll probably like this movie. Seen it on my Kodi box / Exodus / Stream All The Sources, going to have to check it out.

I have been a fan of this GIF already:

So in conclusion.. zootopia is to furries what sausage party is to foodies? and > ponies and frozen?

I was coloring with my girlfriends children the other day...

Since this seems to be hawt rite nao, I may as well figure this out: Jonzu, could you get me a (preferably unedited) picture/gif of the scene where madame rabbit and dr. fox are arguing about the pawpsicle being "Red Wood" vs "Redwood"? I have some research to do...

Sadly I do not have this gif, neither know does one exist. I recommend looking from 4chan's /co/ and /b/. that's where you find zootopia threads.
