The fun thing about the "Traffic duty" thing is that, because of the setup so far, the audience is trained to see it as Judy being singled out for being a rabbit. But remember, this is literally her first day on the force. The precinct has no reason to believe she can handle larger cases yet, and she's not proved herself in actual police work, so of course she gets the lowest stake job
she’s also brand new to the city so it makes sense to give her a low stakes job that helps teach her the street names and stuff. it would be rather hard to respond to calls with no idea where youre going, even with gps
I think I would disagree is because the chief does say it in a way like the job is looked down on. Also they had the whole force on missing mammal cases in groups and that would also provide her with a training opportunity without needing to rely 100% on her. And when they tried to fire her over taking on a missing mammal case- that's illegal, she's supposed to get some internal discipline at worst.
@@demo2823 That's definitely a reasonable read on it. And that's what I like about it. It could be either. I lean towards my theory, naturally, but I also totally get where your read or it comes from
I think that they all show up because another cop could have been hurt. It also shows how much they do genuinely care about her at this point in the film. Because, like come on how many people do you need to control a fox, even though he went wild.
@@albertjessini3294Bellweather calls them and says that Judy is down so you’re at least partly right yeah, that and the Mayor being in immediate danger would probably warrant plenty of backup
The City Center square has City Hall, Police Dept., and Natural History Museum on 3 sides. That's why leaving the subway through the museum was a shortcut. The police only had to cover 100 meters or so after Bellwether called them. They were really diligent with the details on this movie.
@lolalo6344 most animals especially ones within the canidae or primate can rip our face off. We put all our survival points into brains, so we're weak compared to most animals, foxes are very adaptive animals on top of that and are what some would call a TRUE omnivore as they eat literally anything.
@@SusanaCanales1 It's a fun sort of easter egg - people who know about fennecs are going to be like "but that's like an adult-sized fox?" but people who don't are going to just think "aw, a baby!" Perfect little bit of storytelling if you ask me. :D
Mr. Big, the mafia boss is an arctic shrew. They are super vicious and often eats pray much bigger than them. Combine that with how much rodents seem to be in office jobs i.e lots of connections and how the smallest animals would go under the radar, it makes total sense that he would be a mafia boss. Not to mention that it's funny as heck.
It deals with a topic I think rarely gets brought up. Even open minded people like Judy can have it. We are a product of the culture we come from. The question is not whether we have it. The question is if we can overcome it
@@ruffboiALT I think it's much better that it's not a perfect 1:1 analogy. Stories like that often come across as clumsy and forced, whereas Zootopia feels like it makes sense in its own world while still delivering a message about ours.
Can we PLEASE STOP attacking Judy and the film as a whole for this? I DON’T GIVE A SHIT. If you don’t like Judy or what she does with Mr. Big in the film, then DONT WATCH IT.
I think the thing that gets me about Nick scaring Judy into starting to go for her fox repellant is that you can *not* tell me that Gideon only menaced her that one time we saw. That's not how bullies do. Which means she probably has some trauma response to "aggressive fox in my face", even if she intellectually knows better. It wasn't even that she doesn't trust Nick, which is how he takes it, it's that he triggered her.
Could be true hey. I remember Judy saying at the start though that she was “Nine, and Gideon grey was a jerk who happened to be a fox” maybe it was a reflex that stemmed from prejudice she carried for so long afterwards? Idk what you said makes total sense but narratively speaking it would undermine her entire arc as a character if it was just an accident.
@@thecocoacouch I don't think so, because I think regardless of WHY she did it, it was instinctual. She did not consciously think "I am being attacked, I will get the fox mace", she just saw "aggressive fox in her face" and her instinct was "go for defensive weapons bc you're being attacked". And regardless of if it's influenced by trauma, that's part of the point: how ingrained that sort of prejudice is, that even if it was partially or even largely a trauma response, it's still also feeding into prejudice. So it's a little dash of this but also a little dash of that, and that's how real life prejudice often WORKS.
Seconding this. Judy's definitely the fight back type who doesn't look/act like a typical 'traumatised bullying victim', but Gideon assaulted her then had her pinned to the ground insulting her. That isn't a mild thing, and isn't something he'd just jump to without previous escalation either. Biased or not, she's bound to have an ingrained response to a similar threat directly in her face
I can see your point, but that's not really shown in the movie so I can't take it as a fact I just wanna make myself clear, you saying "oh, Judy has trauma because of something that is explained in a book about how our brains work" is on the same level as "oh this superhero movie makes sense because of what happens in this or that comic book"
What I really love about this film is that it was made for a younger audience but I don’t think they knew all the adult themes incorporated into the story.
36:13 while muzzles remind Nick of his trauma, him pretending to attack her as well as say she’s dumb earlier on reminds her of her traumatic event from Gideon after him hurting her and saying she’s dumb as a kid
@@Aiveq no it is believed her being scared of Nick for a second when pretending to attack her with the “you think I might EATYOU!!” She got triggered by her traumatic events as a kid when Gideon was like that and attacked her. Hope that makes more sense Edit: idk what you mean by profiling him earlier cause that is not what I was talking about.
You are the sweetest, kindest, tenderest, most compassionate, funniest, most transparent person I have ever seen on RU-vid, I really like you a lot and although I don't know English (I write this with the translator) I totally understand what you say and convey, I hope to continue watching your reactions ♥ greetings from Chile
signs of budding abusers. if they throw hands casually, will surely throw intentionally. remember men, if she breaks your nose, you go to jail. be safe, not sorry
44:09 - What I love most about this movie is the internal consistency in its details. I knew even before the reveal that Nick hadn’t really been darted because his eyes hadn’t changed. Everyone else in the movie, when they got darted, their eyes changed to look more feral. It’s most noticeable on the panther driver, because his one eye he was keeping shut due to injury, and when he goes feral, he opens it and it draws your attention to that fact. And since Nick’s eyes hadn’t changed, I knew this was a ruse and so wasn’t completely freaked when he went for the neck!
fun fact, in the German Dub the two sheep, Woolter and Jessie, who are obviously a breaking bad reference, are actually voiced by the same guys who voice the REAL Walter and Jessie in the BB german dub loved that little easter egg in the german dub
I love how they managed to make their relationship unquestionably not romantic, even when they said they loved each other! It's just nice to see something different and well-executed like that. I think it's also neat how they showed two different responses to prejudice. Nick experienced it and decided to abandon his dream and lean into it, but Judy did her best, not necessarily to prove the prejudice wrong, but to pursue her dream despite all the prejudice.
AMAZING that at 3:34 you said the line of the theme song, "don't give up, don't give in". 😳🤩 Nick's "son" is a Fennec Fox, indigenous to Northern Africa and Saudi Peninsula. 👍🏽😁
this movie has so many callbacks and utilisation of characters, 'the hustle sweetheart', Fru Fru, Weasolton, 'blueberries', shakira app, parking duty, 'Ice em'. Gosh i love this movie
Yeah! And I just noticed while watching this video that while he and Judy are hiding from the rams (right before the mayor's assistant finds them) he offers her a blueberry. He had them on him this whole time
Not sure if anyone already said this. For us older folks, Judy’s name is hilarious. When 21 Jump Street first came out in the 80’s, the only female officer was Judy Hoffs. It can’t be a coincidence that the only bunny on the force in Zootopia is named Judy Hopps. Got to be a nod to 21 Jump Street.
My favorite Disney movie! Judy & Nick have an amazing chemistry, a bit more than friends I'd say. All the inside jokes & references on rapid fire were my favorite parts of this movie. Edit: I just realized I've been watching your reactions for like a year now, and not subscribed..! So here you go, +1 subscriber!
41:15 I think that's my favorite part when it comes to attention to detail. The look on the otter's face is so telling. You can tell he knows what hit him. He's not annoyed because he just felt hit with something, he is terrified because he knows what will happen.
Seeing the different ecosystems as she approaches the city center reminds me of the Hunger Games districts. I can't wait to see your reaction to Flash! The little fox is a fennec fox.
Can you react to "Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron"? It's a story about a strong, beautiful horse with a spirit that can never be broken. I cry every time i watch it! It's a INCREDIBLE film, and the songs are so cool! But it's not a musical and the animals can't talk. 😭💔🔥
The little white fox is from a species called Fenec Fox, usually they can be found in deserts and dry areas, usually harmless and timid but they're very territorial
So many fans put Judy and Nick into a possible relationship, but I'm really glad their friendship remained platonic. They have great chemistry together, but more of a brother/sister or best friend type of love. It really shook up the concept that all protagonists don't HAVE to have that romantic spark to be amazing.
The Mafia Boss is a shrew, and while he is tiny, the creators put a right animal in the right place! :) Shrews are extremely ferocious, fast, and many of the species are venomous( one shrew stores enough venom to kill around 200 mice!). Also the kicker, foxes don't usually like them, because they emit musk that smells very much like a skunk XD
Have been scrolling your older vids, just looking for something to watch with you, you are such a "feel good person". And then this pops up?? Best night 😊
Someone may have mentioned it, I know I'm a little late on this one, but at 14:26, the pig florist that comes to Judy yelling for help, he's played by her real-life husband. The two of them met filming 'Once Upon a Time' (playing Snow White and Prince Charming)
I just loooove this movie! I hope your days are happier and brighter. Thanks for making mine, so much better. It's been a delight just watching this with you and chilling. ❤
If you like stories where two characters on opposite sides of the law team up to solve crimes, then you should see White Collar. It's one of my favorite series ever and it's about Neal, a young forger and gentleman thief, who starts working (with a GPS anklet) for Peter, the only agent who has ever managed to capture him. Neal is a free spirit, he doesn't believe in rules, he is extremely charming and cultured; Peter, on the other hand, believes in the rules and the system, is a hard worker and a devoted husband. However, Neal and Peter have two things in common: they are extremely intelligent and love challenges. The dynamic they manage to establish on the show is incredible in my opinion.
Loved this reaction! And I completely agree with you. The progression from Nick begrudgingly going along because he has to, to him actually being invested in the case and wanting to help Judy just feels so natural. It never feels rushed or out of character.
I had the absolute best time watching this movie when it came out. The main character was just so likable and she had such tenacity and perseverance it was infectious.
I love that you're able to connect so much stuff, and notice details and motivations but still suspend your disbelief enough to not try and guess every single things thats gonna happen and ENJOY the movie, it's really refreshing to see!
This movie is so deep. This was one of the triple feature drive-in movies. We went specifically for a different one. This was so much better that I don't even remember the other two.
Thank you Oscar, I've been a bit down for the past few weeks (some health issues), but your vids, your infectious wholesome personality always put a smile on my face ♥️ and this is one of my favourite animated movies!!
I watch A LOT of reactors and this is by far one of my favorite channels your reactions are the best and make me excited to rewatch/watch all the best movies! I can’t to see what you watch next! Zootopia is by far one of my favorite newer Disney animated movies
This movie honestly feels like it should be mandatory viewing. The matters it touches on are quite serious and things we, as humans, ought to learn about. And I don't see these lessons becoming any less relevant for quite some time.
i just pulled an all nighter bingeing your avatar reaction series (so much fun!) and i was thrilled to see this pop up as an excuse to commit to the day !!
I always love the scene with Mr Big, because i understand it, that's pretty true in real life. You do a service for a member of the ruling family, and the mafia has your back from then on out
If you get a kick out of polar opposite characters interacting... you would LOVE the Buffy / Spike interactions in the series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" :D
I love this movie and it was so much fun seeing you react to it. Friendship stories are my jam, especially when they're opposites like this. It was so fun seeing Judy and Nick learn to trust each other, and I really liked how their banter increased as their friendship did. It felt completely natural. And you're definitely right about the worldbuilding - some of the best I've seen, and it really enhanced the story.
At my local DMV there’s a guy that always now dresses like Flash. When I had to renew my license he was the one helping me and I admired his cosplay (he also had a Flash coffee mug). Apparently the whole DMV went to see the movie together when it came out. Gotta love the sense of humor!
First of: I'm so excited for the video. I have a series suggestion for you though: Malcolm in the Middle. It's a sitcom centered around an absolute crazy, but lovable family, has great characters, comedy and drama, with a few problematic jokes sprinkled throughout, as to be expected from an old sitcom. I have written this comment in various formulations and I will continue so, till I see my favourite reactor, react to this beautiful mess of a series.
I just love this movie so much! "Destroying the stereotypes" fits perfectly for this. The comedy, the character development and the whole design is just on another level. I'm so glad there will be a 2nd movie in the Future. And i love the fact that judys voice actor is the same as snow white in the tv series once upon a time . Snow white is also so pure and optimistic! I wish more people could be like Judy
When talking about the evolution of Judy, even if it was acting, but trusting nick enough to have him bit her neck, quite a deal when you've been attacked by fox before...
I love this movie for so many reasons, I really think it handles the concepts of prejudice so well, because we see it happen through the eyes of our hero; how anyone can fall foul of it. There are so many characters that fulfil their stereotypes but also battle them - the cheetah being the stereotypical cop but also, the total opposite of what a cheetah is, is a great one. Poor fella gets demoted out of fear even thought its so evident he's not anything like his stereotype. Judy is the best female heroine in a movie from Disney, period, imo. The movie focuses on her career, personality and race, not the fact she's a woman. It's not the source of her weakness or her strength and frankly that's how you write a good heroine; as a PERSON.
OMG I'm so stupid 😂🤣😂🤣 as the Jaguar was turning savage in this video everything clicked! The otter was a florist, and the night howlers are also flowers and that's why the otter was saying the name of the flowers over and over again! Lol I'm so stupid! I had no idea that's why he knew it was the flowers😂🤣😂🤣 What's wrong with me
I’m so glad you started reacting. Seeing your video notifications pop up makes my day every time! I adore how sweet and intelligent you are☺️ if only we could know you irl
hi. i just wanted to thank you for creating these reactions. you are such a sweet person and your videos feel like a warm hug. i was in real need of a warm hug today, so thank you very much 😂
This is for sure my comfort channel on RU-vid. Always feels like watching a movie with a gentle friend and makes me feel better when I’m a little low 🥹 such fun reactions and fun movie choices!! Always a great time watching these cozy videos 💛
Love this film! Excited for Zootopia 2 next year. Have you ever seen The Bad Guys? It's like a heist film which also kinda deals a little bit with prejudices using animals to show it.
Yes, it was a lovely movie, so creative. Thanks for breaking it down with the logic of why the characters would do what they did. 😅 Can't believe l didnt catch the 'jude the dude' and it was in there twice. 😂 I thank God for such blessings. It was clever to find the one that knows around and is street smart. Real nice, even better after catching the amen, hallelujah, and the mention of the speaking in tongues spiritual gift! 💯 awesome!
The fox that is small is a Fennec Fox, they are a small and remain small and live in deserts, they have insane hearing with their giant ears. I love them so much.
I remember seeing this in theaters and at the part where the tiger jumps at the window the ENTIRE theater jumped and gasped. then laughed because we grown-ass adults got jump-scared by Disney. well played Disney, well played. Moments like those are what make seeing movies in theaters so fun
Easily, EASILY my favorite Pixar film from Disney. There are so many clever themes meshing together that without an in depth deep dive it’s impossible to list them all. It’s an absurdly brilliant concept that was executed masterfully. I truly, truly hope we get a sequel and get to see more of that world. Back in 2012 I was lucky enough to get to experience a big city thanks to my ex. While things didn’t work out, at all, I got to experience an entire new world thanks to him. I immediately bonded with Judy. Small town bunny from a farming community going to a major city. Her world literally bloomed in front of her. As bad as things got for my ex and I, I will always cherish those couple weeks where I got to see what life could be like somewhere else. This movie is extremely dear to me and hopefully, someday, I’ll get to go back to a big city and find a life there
Highly recommend watching The Legend of Tarzan! It came out in 2016 and had an absolutely stacked cast. Its not animated, but is almost sort of a sequel to Tarzan.
40:25 Wow I've seen this movie so many times but just now caught this but.. is this a Disney's "Frozen" reference? Like when they called the old man "Weasel-ton" and he said "It's Wess-elton?"
You really made my day, I was having a little bit of hard time today so thank you. And now, on to the spirit reaction (that's my absolute favorite movie)
can you just stop being so cute watching these disney movies? I need to sleep to work tomorrow morning, but this is my third video on a sequence cuz I cant stop!!!
