gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 3sMy theory is it's deliberate, the company has a vendetta against the species ever since one gnawed the laces off of Walt's shoe. 000
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 56sContenders. Oh, they COULD be champions, but they have policing to do and can't be off the job too long. 000
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 4mZootopia is half subverting stereotypes, half embracing them for comedy. 100
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 10mRiver otters are water kittens, but sea otters... don't let them fool you. 000
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Don't forget her friend, Brianca, she has cheese earrings. 030
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 14/10/2026People say you can be whatever you want to be, but that's not true. You can be what others LET you. People fight the world, and rarely, they win. But not you. Never you. Not giving up on a dream will only end up with you going to your grave unfulfilled. 000
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 13/10/2026'That snake looks Jewish' amused me. Meanwhile Zootopia had to be retitled twice because someone had already used the name (multiple times) and someone else had used 'Zootropolis' too. 010
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 11/10/2026The world needs more weasel paws, given his relationship with donuts, Duke getting stuck somehwere is a certainty. I expect Nick & Judy are already locked in. 100
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Boss is an uncaring pig, customers yelling, can't wait to get off work. Sam is everyone in retail. 010
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Broadening his voter base I see, probably by appealing to weighty matters. He may have mass appeal, but let's hope he hasn't bitten off more than he can chew, or he'll get his just desserts. 020
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Fitting too given how cast members had their names given to characters such as Fabienne (G)Rowley. 010
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 11/10/2026I'm betting they somehow lost to Weaselton in a game of strip poker. Stu Hopps will tell you, those weasels play a mean game. 020

gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Germany calls it Zoomania, I don't know what that says about them. 100
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 05/10/2026But did they know who Nick was, or did you have to clarify he was a fox? 000
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 03/10/2026That's Clark, mouse police officer and partner to an elephant. Despite not having any voice lines, he's in a surprising amount of merchandise. 010
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 03/10/2026The comics took note of that plot point! 010
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 03/10/2026In my country this actually had legal ramifications. According to amendment 34 of the Mercantile Act, ratified 2017, purchasing items for scalping is illegal. If you don't believe me just google 'Zootopia rule 34' for details. 120
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 01/10/2026A delightful break from the real world where villains insist their victims are evil and deserve what they're getting. 000

gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 01/10/2026For me it was 'Who first looked at a cow and thought "I think I'll drink whatever comes out of those things when I squeeze them"?' 010
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 28/09/2026It doesn't HAVE furry racism, it IS furry racism. 010
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Zootopia as it played to a bigger audience, but it couldn't have existed without Robin Hood going first. 000
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Only one of those movies has Thunderbolt in it. There was never any doubt. 000
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 24/09/2026It was literally the center of the movie's original plotline until reactions like yours convinced everyone that perhaps a less soul-crushing story was called for. 000
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 20/09/2026"The subject was sacrificed atop an altar made of antlers." "Dear God..." "We think so, yes." 010
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 18/09/2026They also have corrupt politicians that are excused if they're not the final bad guy, so they're clearly up for quick fizes only. 100
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 18/09/2026After most of the story was worked out, they completely abandoned it, even changing who the main character was. Something similar happened with the sequel, so late that the novelization is different. 000
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 17/09/2026The genre? Background noise for studying and such. The specific video? Hopping on a popular trend. 020
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I also just learned that now. What the hey? 110
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 14/09/2026'Here is a movie containing a minority that is not coded in any consistent fashion, and in fact majority characters reference IRL minorities and also suffer discrimination.' 'The predators are all POC.' 020
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Two criminals from opposite sides of the social divide, bridging the impossible gap through their mutual dislike of the Big mafia crime family. 011
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Plus, any money you spend on HP usually goes right to JK and her cause. She's made things more direct than a large nebulous corporation. 010
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 08/09/2026When you're a snake, all your French Girls are just noodles. It's much more difficult to draw something with limbs and hands and stuff. 131
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 04/09/2026He stole night howlers BULBS, which Chief Bogo thought were moldy onions. Judy tries to correct him ('they're a Class C Botanical') but Bogo doesn't listen. 000
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 04/09/2026No, Nighthowlers are both a natural pesticide and a variety of crocus, so likely ornamental flowers in their own right. They wouldn't be the first pot plant that's toxic. 100
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Few stick anymore. The last one I think was Loona. Even new pokemon don't make a splash anymore. Soon it'll all be nostalgia. 010
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 04/09/2026As well as ignoring the other film references the movie contained. Fun times. 010
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 03/09/2026They have very carefully been stepping back on what little there was, you can see them backpeadal in real time. 000
gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Hard to say though, it's not like reptile sonas have seen a massive rise, though lynxes got a bump. 000

gareth-dean.bsky.social @gareth-dean.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Too many worlds are 'Like real life, but people look a bit different'. I have to embrace any worldbuilding that stops to think about what nonhuman species would actually NEED. 010
