And outside of Brazil, Spanish language Zootopia youtube videos are also extremely popular, for some reason. Word of mouth, perhaps.

cannastop Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) Speaking of differing opinions on the Hopps/Wilde relationship: Source: http://goshdarncute.tumblr.com/post/149043212050/there-are-two-types-of-zootopia-viewers P.S.: Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde basically are Ginnifer Goodwin and Jason Bateman, right? Pretty much look exactly like them, too. Edited September 5, 2016 by cannastop 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannastop Posted September 13, 2016 Author Share Posted September 13, 2016 I've chilled. Now I think that $400m dom and $800m overseas should be the target for the sequel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edroger3 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Seeing the Zootopia section at Disney Store online it seems that the Mouse House isn't so interested to promote this brand, there are few products (many of them already discounted) and only two regarding the lead character. Plus, despite the lead character is a "female", we can find it in "boy" section. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morieris Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 There's not really anything to promote with it anymore. It'll get a banner with 'Oscar Nominated' slapped on it and that's about it until they make something else. Meanwhile we can buy a 70$ bracelet charm of Elsa's dress.

edroger3 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 And in European countries version (.co.uk, .de, .fr, .it) Zootopia does not exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zootopia isn't selling a lot of toys, which probably doesn't please the consumer products division. I don't know if there's anything they could do to make little kids demand the playsets, though.

Usually (I'm coming from many years working in toy market) what sells are the characters. The problem with Zootopia is that its characters, as singles, aren't so mind breaking (indeed, they are quite stereotyped: the rabbit is timid, the fox is crafty, the sloth is slow) but the "universe" around them is so well done that makes them fit into the movie, while Frozen, for example, is the opposite: it has an "universe" hundred times more simply and stereotyped than Zootopia, in which we find at least three characters that work well also in a empty screen (in my opinion one of them is, at least in term of merchandise potential, the best female fictional character ever made).

cookie Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 (edited) After finally seeing Zootopia today, I'll be stanning hard for the sequel. There's so much of the world left undiscovered. Edited November 12, 2016 by cookie 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, what do you think would have happened if it had Doctor Strange's or Trolls' release date? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannastop Posted November 13, 2016 Author Share Posted November 13, 2016 (edited) Now that Trump's, elected, I wonder if they will fast-track the sequel. Really, it could happen. They might start writing it in March 2017 and have a final draft in November 2018. They could start animation then and have the whole movie finished in October 2019, in time for Thanksgiving 2019. Disney's playing up the political aspects of Zootopia for its Oscar campaign. They might want the sequel to stay relevant.

cannastop Posted November 15, 2016 Author Share Posted November 15, 2016 Sounds like Byron Howard is working on a movie with Lin-Manuel Miranda. http://www.vulture.com/2016/11/lin-manuel-miranda-making-a-secret-disney-film.html So Rich Moore and Byron Howard might be busy with new projects. It remains to be seen if Byron Howard will actually direct this speculative project, though. I'm not against a sequel directed by neither Rich Moore or Byron Howard, though. Maybe Josie Trinidad could get a directing job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morieris Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 One of my favorite books takes place in an anthropomorphic world of rodents and involves a mystery surrounding the theater, including murder, falsified paternity, and a missing starlet. I'd be down with something almost like that that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannastop Posted November 17, 2016 Author Share Posted November 17, 2016 If it takes more than 6 years for a Zootopia sequel to show up, I have a feeling that it's not going to increase over the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
