Fresh off the long Thanksgiving weekend, Jim and Lauren crawl out from under their leftover Pilgrim sandwiches to talk about Zootopia 2 absolutely owning the holiday box office, how that might shape Disney's sequel strategy, and the must-have merch that is already slithering into the parks. They also dig into McDonald's massive 70th anniversary Happy Meal promotion, Disney's official holiday book guide, and a couple of doorstop tomes that are now living in the Hersey household. In the back half, Jim takes Lauren on a whirlwind tour through nearly 80 years of Disney's talking-animal history - from Song of the South all the way to Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde. NEWS • Zootopia 2's Thanksgiving opening pulls in a projected 156 million dollars domestically and around 400 million dollars overseas in just five days - more than half a billion total and one of the biggest Thanksgiving hauls ever. • How those numbers stack up against Wicked for Good and last year's Moana 2, plus why Universal probably is not panicking while it waits for the inevitable Wicked sing-along edition and a newly announced Galinda prequel novel. • The debut of Gary the Snake - a gloriously weird Zootopia 2 sipper at Disneyland - and Jim's crusade to track down Nog the snow seal pup plush that was gifted to Disney Television Animation staffers. • McDonald's 70th celebration Happy Meal, featuring 70 different Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and classic character toys with two figures per box - plus online grumbling over who made the cut (hello, Clarabelle) and who suspiciously did not (sorry, Cinderella). • Disney Parks Blog's holiday book guide, from deep-dive art and history titles like the X Atencio tribute and John Landau's memoir to Moana's “What if she stole the heart?” Twisted Tale, kid-friendly atlases, scratch-n-sniff adventures, and the giant Holiday Magic at the Disney Parks and Bring the Magic Home books currently threatening Lauren's fingernails. FEATURE • A crash course in Disney's history with anthropomorphized animals - starting with the animated sequences in 1946's Song of the South and why so many artists remembered that era as their happiest time at the studio after returning from World War II. • The rise and fall of the abandoned Chanticleer project, the “Roy's Boys” money feud with Walt, and how that detour accidentally sent Mark Davis to Imagineering where he helped create icons like Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion. • How The Aristocats, Robin Hood, and even The Jungle Book paved the way for modern animal worlds - including the infamous animation recycling in Robin Hood's “Phony King of England” sequence that sharp-eyed fans still spot today. • The long development path from the shelved spy thriller Savage Seas, starring Jack Savage, to the fully realized animal metropolis of Zootopia - including John Lasseter's notes, Jared Bush's CIA family background, and the last-minute decision to swap Nick Wilde out for Judy Hopps as the true lead.

Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde are on the case when a snake threatens to steal a book valuable to the history of Zootopia. There's more than meets the eye, however, and much adventure ensues.
Min 5: NUREMBERG (3 estrellas) 'Nuremberg ', dirigida por James Vanderbilt y protagonizada por Rami Malek en la piel del psiquiatra militar Douglas Kelley y Russell Crowe como un inquietante Hermann Göring, plantea un thriller histórico que convierte los juicios más determinantes del siglo XX en un duelo psicológico sostenido más que en un simple repaso académico. Basada en el libro 'El nazi y el psiquiatra', la película se concentra en las entrevistas carcelarias donde Kelley intenta evaluar la salud mental de los acusados mientras descubre que el mal que encarnan no reside en la locura, sino en una mezcla de cálculo, narcisismo y capacidad para manipular. Min 11: PUÑALES POR LA ESPALDA: DE ENTRE LOS MUERTOS (4 estrellas) 'Puñales por la espalda: De entre los muertos', dirigida por Rian Johnson y protagonizada por Daniel Craig como el incombustible Benoit Blanc junto a Josh O'Connor, Cailee Spaeny y Kerry Washington, recupera el espíritu juguetón del whodunit contemporáneo y lo desplaza hacia un terreno más oscuro sin perder la ironía marca de la casa. Johnson arma un misterio que se abre en capas, con una muerte que parece más teatral que real, un elenco de sospechosos que van revelando el tipo de grietas morales que sostienen a los millonarios modernos y un detective que, entre bromas, sigue desentrañando la estupidez humana con la lucidez que lo hizo célebre en las dos entregas anteriores. Min 16: COARTADAS (2,5 estrellas) 'Coartadas', dirigida por Martín Cuervo y protagonizada por Jaime Lorente, Adriana Torrebejano y Leo Harlem, convierte la idea de una empresa especializada en fabricar excusas perfectas en el punto de partida de una comedia de enredo que funciona como retrato ligero, pero reconocible, de la cultura de la mentira cómoda. Cuervo, que se apoya en el modelo de la francesa 'Alibi.com', estira la premisa hasta el límite cuando el dueño de la agencia se enamora de una mujer que detesta a los mentirosos y descubre, demasiado tarde, que el padre de ella es uno de sus clientes más fieles. Min 18: SINGULAR (2,5 estrellas) 'Singular', dirigida por Alberto Gastesi y protagonizada por Patricia López Arnaiz y Javier Rey —con la aparición de Miguel Iriarte como elemento detonante— traza un thriller psicológico con matices de ciencia ficción y drama familiar, en el que la frontera entre la pérdida, la culpa y la esperanza se vuelve difusa. Gastesi plantea una reunión traumática: doce años tras la muerte de su hijo, Diana —especialista en inteligencia artificial— y Martín se ven obligados a volver a su vieja casa junto al lago, un escenario que debería servir para cerrar heridas y acaba convirtiéndose en un territorio de fantasmas emocionales cuando un joven con un inquietante parecido al hijo muerto irrumpe en sus vidas. Min 20: ZOOTRÓPOLIS 2 (3,5 estrellas) 'Zootrópolis 2', dirigida por Byron Howard y Jared Bush y protagonizada en su versión original por Ginnifer Goodwin y Jason Bateman como la agente Judy Hopps y el astuto Nick Wilde, retoma la energía de la primera entrega con un enfoque más ambicioso que mezcla sátira social, buddy movie y un toque de thriller urbano. La secuela desplaza a sus dos protagonistas hacia un caso que desborda lo policial y pone a prueba la frágil convivencia entre especies, un terreno donde la película brilla al combinar humor físico, guiños pop y una lectura adulta sobre el miedo, la desinformación y los prejuicios contemporáneos. Min 24: LA VOZ DE HIND (4,5 estrellas) 'La voz de Hind', dirigida por Kaouther Ben Hania y protagonizada por Saja Kilani junto a Motaz Malhees y Clara Khoury, reconstruye —con una crudeza conmovedora— el último grito de auxilio de una niña de seis años atrapada en Gaza tras un ataque aéreo, utilizando la voz real de la víctima para prolongar su súplica en el tiempo y colocar al espectador ante la evidencia de un horror que muchos prefieren ignorar. Alberto Luchini se deshace en elogios ante la que considera una de esas películas que trascenderá en el tiempo y que considera imprescindible. MIn 28: "BLUE MOON" (3 estrellas) 'Blue Moon', dirigida por Richard Linklater y protagonizada por Ethan Hawke como el letrista atormentado Lorenz Hart, junto a Margaret Qualley, Andrew Scott y Bobby Cannavale, pone sobre la mesa la angustia de un artista que ve su ocaso profesional y emocional justo cuando el mundo celebra a su antiguo colaborador. La película transcurre en una única noche —la del estreno de 'Oklahoma!' en 1943— y convierte un bar de Broadway en un tribunal de musas, ego y desencanto. Min 32: "SOLO PIENSO EN TI". DOCUMENTAL. 3,5 estrellas Auspiciada por CMM y el gobierno de Castilla-La Mancha, 'Solo pienso en ti', dirigida por Hugo de la Riva y centrada en la historia real de María José y Emilio, dos jóvenes con discapacidad intelectual que en los años setenta desafiaron prejuicios familiares, médicos y legales para vivir juntos y formar un proyecto de vida, propone un documental que combina rigor histórico, emoción contenida y una mirada profundamente humana sobre la dignidad y el derecho a amar. El director manchego nos deja un mensaje muy especial para animar el visionado del largometraje. Min 35: "FLORES PARA ANTONIO". (3 estrellas) 'Flores para Antonio', dirigida por Isaki Lacuesta y articulada en torno a la figura del cantante Antonio Flores, reconstruye la trayectoria breve, intensa y frágil de un artista que convirtió su dolor en una voz propia y terminó devorado por la presión familiar, la exigencia pública y sus propios fantasmas. Lacuesta esquiva el biopic convencional y opta por un documental que mezcla material doméstico nunca visto, grabaciones de estudio, diarios, entrevistas actuales con familiares y músicos cercanos, y una puesta en escena que ilumina tanto la energía creativa de Antonio como la sombra emocional que lo acompañó desde joven. Min 40: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON JULIÁN LOMINCHAR En la entrega de hoy nuestro invitado es Julián Lominchar, dibujante y animador toledano que ha vivido un año decisivo tras formar parte del equipo de Robot Dreams y ser admitido (esta misma semana) en la Academia de Cine. Un reconocimiento que confirma su proyección dentro de la animación española. Lominchar habla con la mirada limpia de quien se ha criado entre lápices, papel y sueños posibles, y por eso no sorprende que su elección para La película de tu vida sea el 'Pinocho' de 1940. Min 42: BSO: "DRÁCULA", de Danny Elfman (4 estrellas) La banda sonora de 'Drácula', compuesta por Danny Elfman, es un ejercicio de poderío musical en el que el autor recupera su faceta más gótica y sinfónica para construir un paisaje sonoro que respira deseo, amenaza y tragedia a partes iguales. Elfman articula el score como una sucesión de impulsos emocionales: cuerdas que se retuercen como si fuesen un hilo de sangre, metales que irrumpen con una gravedad casi litúrgica y coros que oscilan entre lo sagrado y lo profano, recordando por momentos la sensualidad oscura de 'Sleepy Hollow' y la teatralidad operística de su etapa más expresionista.

Walt Disney Animation Studios has had a rough couple years (to be nice), so it should be a surprise to absolutely no one that I had very little anticipation for Zootopia 2, yet another nearly 10-year late sequel from one of the House of Mouse's big animation studios. I felt this way despite being a kid at the prime age when Zootopia came out, just like I was with Moana and Pixar's Inside Out. But, when I opened social media a few days ago...

BEFORE ZOOTOPIA 2!! Zootopia Full Movie Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects Zootopia Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review! Greg Alba & Tara Erickson dive into Disney's Zootopia (2016), the hilarious, heartfelt, surprisingly mature animated adventure starring Judy Hopps, Nick Wilde, Chief Bogo, Bellwether, Mayor Lionheart, Flash, Clawhauser, Yax, and the entire ZPD squad. We break down all the iconic scenes — the DMV sloth sequence with Flash, Judy & Nick's first meeting, Mr. Big's “ice-'em” moment, the Night Howlers twist, the Gazelle concert, the train chase, the cliff fight, and the emotional “Try Everything” finale. We also revisit the most popular quotes (“It's called a hustle, sweetheart,” “Let it go,” “We are in a really big hurry!”) and the deeper themes about prejudice, stereotypes, identity, ambition, fear, and community that made Zootopia one of Disney's smartest films ever. With Zootopia 2 releasing THIS WEEK, we compare world-building, character arcs, the return of Judy & Nick, the new mystery storyline, and what Disney has confirmed for the sequel. Expect full commentary, fun tangents, Easter-egg breakdowns, analysis of Michael Giacchino's score, and a whole lot of love for this universe.

Zoomania 2 | Wenig anders, aber tierisch gut In „Zoomania 2“ (ab 26. November im Kino) führt ein Einsatz die ungleichen, tierischen Cops Judy Hopps und Nick Wilde auf eine rätselhafte Fährte, die die vermeintlich gut geordnete Säugetier-Metropole ins Chaos stürzt. Die beiden müssen sich undercover in bis dahin unbekannten Vierteln behaupten, in denen neue Regeln gelten und ihre noch junge Partnerschaft stärker ins Wanken gerät, als ihnen lieb ist – nicht zuletzt, weil eine Schlange auftaucht, die es in einer Stadt wie Zoomania eigentlich gar nicht geben dürfte. Schlangen sind zwar auch beim Tele-Stammtisch seltene Gäste, dafür haben sich Schlogger und Stu das Sequel zu einem der erfolgreichsten Disney-Filme der vergangenen Jahre angesehen und erzählen nicht nur, ob sich der Kinobesuch lohnt, sondern auch, welche Tiere sie selbst wären, wie sich der zweite Teil atmosphärisch und erzählerisch vom Original unterscheidet – und natürlich, ob Schlangen wirklich so unsympathisch sind, wie ihr Ruf vermuten lässt.

As 2025 comes to hurling toward an end a new attraction arrives at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Zootopia Better Zoogether is now in the Tree of Life Theater and offers something new for this park which begs for more guests. And at a great time to do so, as this time of year is the best time of year to visit the park, which is free of heat, humidity and exhaustion. The new show replaces "It's Tough to Be a Bug" which premiered with the park, and was based on "It's a Bug's Life", the second film created by Pixar after Toy Story. This new show is based on Zootopia and Zootopia 2 and brings you into the dynamic world of Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde. We look at the origins, then experience the show during early previews, where we walk the queue indoor and out. Then it's on to see the show where we offer a spoil-free synopsis, with a comparison of what works and what doesn't. Beyond this, we look at what could be next for Zootopia and for Disney's Animal Kingdom.

In a city of anthropomorphic animals, a fugitive fox con artist and a rookie rabbit cop must work together to uncover a conspiracy. The modern mammal metropolis of Zootopia is a city like no other. Comprised of habitat neighborhoods like ritzy Sahara Square and frigid Tundratown, it's a melting pot where no matter what you are, from the biggest elephant to the smallest shrew, you can be anything. But when optimistic Officer Judy Hopps arrives, she discovers that being the first bunny on a police force of big, tough animals isn't so easy. Determined to prove herself, she jumps at the opportunity to crack a case, even if it means partnering with a fast-talking, scam-artist fox, Nick Wilde, to solve the mystery.

Senior executives and heads of digital banks across Asia Pacific discussed how innovation across service offerings and embracing a culture of transformation is key to growth and profitability, amid heightened competition. With more challengers entering markets, digital banks can differentiate themselves with the technologies brought in and how efficient data is used to enhance stickiness of products. Kevin Lam, head of TMRW and Group Digital Banking of UOB; Bryan Carroll, CEO of TNEX; Gunneet Singh Bally, senior vice president and group head of retail channels of Security Bank Corporation; Voranuch Dejakaisaya, executive chairman of Kasikorn Business Technology Group (KBTG); and Nick Wilde, managing director in Asia Pacific at Thought Machine discussed the profitability of a digital-only business and how cloud-native technology stack help banks and financial institutions (FIs) build the operating models of unique experiences. Carroll said the main competitive advantage of digital banking is the ability to sum up all customer interactions, and the opportunities for value propositions. Bally discussed the increase in products and services offered due to “commoditised personalisation.” Lam talked about the need for close partnership and collaboration in the industry. Voranuch explained the process of innovating into the new digital core banking to support the digital requirements of today's marketplace.

Zootopia is an animated film released in 2016. It is set in a CGI world of anthropomorphic animals. In the movie, bunny Judy Hopps joins the Zootopia Police Department and uncovers a huge conspiracy with the help of shady red fox voiced by Jason Bateman, Nick Wilde. Zoom now to 2022, Nick and Judy are not so significant in the follow up show, Zootopia+ that was released November 9th. It contains six 5-7 minute shorts that are tangentially related to the original movie, but they're independent stories. Similar to The I Am Groot, Disney presents these shorts as somewhat of a companion track to the feature story. Tune in to hear our thoughts and welcome to Today's Episode!

Zootopia: Come for the cute, fluffy bunny and the Shakira song, stay for the lessons on the harms of stereotyping and why you should never call a bunny “cute”! This week, the Dummies are learning a thing or two from Judy Hops - that's Officer Hops to you - and her new friend Nick Wilde as they embark on a mission through a world where animals can surprise us (and them!) at every turn. The post DD55 – Zootopia (2016) appeared first on PodCavern.
Nick Wilde, Judy Hopps, and Dancing Tigers! Join us this week on talking everything Zootopia!
Mother, I'd like to fuck
May 2, 2021. In today's sermon we learn more about the story from Acts chapter 8 of Philip and the Ethiopian Eunuch — the foreign, dark-skinned person who does not conform to gender norms — and ask what is to prevent us or anyone from being baptized. Readings: Acts 8:26-40, John 15:1-8 *** Transcript *** In the relatively new, but definitely classic Disney movie “Zootopia,” bunny Judy Hopps has always been… different. In a world that claims to be inclusive — where anyone can be anything — Zootopia is still largely divided into predator and prey, and you are expected to fit in to whichever group you are born into. So it is assumed that Judy the bunny will do what her entire bunny family has always done — farm carrots. But Judy knows she was born to be a police officer. Her passion for making the world a better place gets her into trouble with bullies, who want to knock her down, and her parents, who wish she would settle for the easy road and not make things so hard for herself and them. In spite of the challenges, Judy does become a police officer, but finds that her colleagues don't take her seriously, and her chief relegates her to parking duty. As the story unfolds, Judy stumbles onto an unsolved case, and in trying to solve it, she becomes friends with Nick Wilde, a fox. Judy unwittingly hurts Nick deeply when her own tendency to see all predators as dangerous “others” gets the best of her. She realizes that while she has struggled to claim her place as a bunny police officer, Nick has been rejected his whole life because people didn't believe a predator like him could ever belong anywhere — and Judy herself wasn't as ready to embrace Nick the fox as she had thought. In the gospels, Jesus often calls people to recognize the walls they have put up between them and others. He shocks by making an outsider, the Good Samaritan, the hero of a parable, and eats with all kinds of people seen as “other.” Jesus is always reaching to the margins and once, Jesus himself gets called out when he refuses to help the Syrophoenician woman whose daughter is ill, and she tells him: even the dogs get to eat the scraps from the table. Of course, Jesus then heals the girl. And I have often wondered, was Jesus trying to teach us a lesson in what not to do, or did he in his humanity also need to be taught? In the early days of what would become the Christian church, chronicled in the Book of Acts that provides our first readings in the Easter season, the followers of Jesus debated about who could belong and who couldn't belong, and what they had to do to belong. The Spirit kept showing them that all people are children of God and welcome into God's promises. After the initial coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, the Spirit anointed a group of gentiles, and that led to their baptism, if only because the Apostles could hardly deny baptism to people God had so clearly chosen. In the heat of debate about whether or not following Judaic dietary laws should be required, Peter had a dream in which God revealed to him that no one should be excluded from the fellowship for what they eat. Over and over, the gospel expands the circle, continually challenging us to welcome those who seem outside. The promises of baptism are for all people, but especially for those on the margins. Today's story is no different. The Ethiopian Eunuch, although he was a Jew and he carried some power and authority in the court in which he served, was an outsider on many counts. He was a foreigner, he was viewed as “exotic” because of his dark skin, and he'd been surgically altered — possibly by force — so that he was outside of gender norms. None of that prevents the Spirit from guiding Philip to head to the south, follow a deserted road, find a random chariot, and join the Eunuch as he studied Isaiah. Philip shares the gospel with him, and it never occurs to the Eunuch that it might not be for him. They pass by water, and the Eunuch speaks a profound statement of faith: “Look, here is water! What is to prevent me from being baptized?” What indeed? There was water, and the Word of God. And then and there, the Eunuch and Philip claim that the promises of God have no limits. We don't know anything else of the Ethiopian Eunuch, except that he goes on his way rejoicing. It strikes me that, as an Ethiopian, dark-skinned, high court official, he is in the perfect position to carry the good news to new lands. The Spirit, I believe, didn't send Philip to the Eunuch in spite of who he was, but because he was uniquely equipped to embody the love, forgiveness, and faithfulness of a God who knows no boundaries. The Eunuch knew without question that God's promises were for him, in all his uniqueness. Judy Hopps knew without question that she was uniquely equipped to make the world a better place as a bunny police officer, no matter what anyone else thought. As colleagues and I gathered this week to reflect on these texts, we wondered, what would it look like if we lived the truth that all people really are fully included in the gospel? We realized that we pray for this every week, in the Lord's Prayer, asking that God's kingdom and will be done on earth... not just for some, but for all creation. It means letting go of needing to understand, needing to gate-keep, needing to have some control over how things look and how they are done. It means letting go of our own vision and embracing God's vision instead. We humans will never fully be able to grasp it in this life, but we do get glimpses, and it is the gospel nevertheless. My colleagues and I recognized the power of the gospel to heal and transform us and our communities, no matter how imperfectly we embody it. We shared from the witness of our own lives and those we care for that when God's expansive love is embraced and embodied in people around us, it can actually reduce the depression, isolation, and even risk of suicide that comes from being systematically cast out. The challenge of all this is that, for those of us who “fit” easily in different ways, embracing the expansiveness of the gospel, allowing the Spirit to remove the walls and barriers that leave others outside, means being willing to be uncomfortable. Judy was really uncomfortable as she faced her own prejudices and saw the harm that she had done, and she and Nick had to have really hard conversations. In the end, the walls within them and between them that kept them from being who they were created to be fell apart as they claimed their truth. And as easy as it seems for Philip to seek out the Eunuch and baptize him, that was clearly the work of the Spirit, sending and snatching and sending again. And we know from all of the stories of the early church just how much conflict, confusion, and even anger had to be worked through as the Spirit revealed herself to them. Like Judy and Nick, and the people of the early church, we today continue to come up against our own walls and barriers, and the Spirit continues to blow through and take them down because she will not be contained. Today we celebrate the good news of a God so expansive that she embraces a foreign, dark-skinned person who does not conform to gender norms, and connects us all to one another and themselves as surely as branches connect to the vine to receive life and nourishment. Like Mr. Jesse pointed out, we are connected to God, and to each other, and all of creation. The gift of this is that we can help one another feel the expansiveness and connectedness of the love of God when we can't sense it for ourselves. Beyond anything else, it is what we were created to do. Thanks be to God. *** Keywords *** 2021, Christ Lutheran Church, Webster Groves, sermon, podcast, transcript, YouTube, video, Pastor Meagan McLaughlin, Acts 8:26-40, John 15:1-8

Dave and Dharm have a fascinating discussion with Yves Roesti and Fraser Wilkie of Synpulse and Nick Wilde from Thought Machine about why Asia is rapidly becoming one of the most advanced regions for FinTech. Tied into this, we also discuss why the future of digital FS requires a much more creative and customer-centric approach.
Jodi, Hannah and Philip discuss 'Zootopia' from Walt Disney Animation Studios. Released in February 2016, this film is a resounding allegory for human sociology whist providing an intriguing criminal caper plot in the tradition of action films like 48 Hrs. and Lethal Weapon. Judy Hopps is the first rabbit police officer to graduate into the Zootopia Police Department. Despite being the top of her class, she has difficulty adjusting from her rural roots into the pressures of the big city. Convinced Zootopia is a place where anyone can be anything, she forges ahead in the face of adversity from criminals and cops alike, befriending an unlikely ally in Nick Wilde the fox, in order to prove herself as an officer.

Disney's 2016 blockbuster film, Zootopia, tells the story of a world where predators and prey coexist in a peaceful society. But when a few predators mysteriously go missing within the city limits, it is up to Judy Hopps, a spunky rabbit who becomes the first rabbit police officer, and her unlikely partner Nick Wilde, a predatory red fox, and small-time con artist, to crack the criminal case Yet, when you look beyond the stunning colorful visuals and adorably expressive anthropomorphic animal characters, you social critique on the prejudice and racism of contemporary American society. A Catholic in America can relate to Zootopia, since the barriers and echo chambers found all over our culture today, makes living and preaching the Gospel increasingly difficult. Today we dive into the universe of the predators and prey in Zootpia. This is Truly Universal. Episode Links Lion and Lamb Hybrid Guinea Pig and Lion Hybrid

In this week's episode we talk about the overnight Annual Pass price increases, the recent WDWNT vs. Disney World PR drama, and how exactly Nick Wilde has been pulling off the same scam every day for 20 years... The Sam's Club hack to get APs at the old price seems to have run out; I don't see Annual Passes available anymore (at least for out of state). HOWEVER, you can still get discounted park tickets there AND you can get discounted Disney gift cards (that you can use to get APs) there, so it may still help to go through Sam's Club instead of through Disney directly. The podcast mentioned is Backside of Magic, not Backside of Disney. This episode was guest edited by Val.
Nick Wilde and Tod will be happy to have another Fox in the house. With Disney's recent acquisition of Fox to a tune of $71.3 billion, change is afoot. Joe and I discuss what properties Disney will gain the rights to, how it may change the face of cable and streaming services, and how it may impact the movies going forward. It's a crazy, exciting time! Check us out on Facebook or submit a question/topic for us to discuss on a future episode.
Released in 2016 to critical and commercial success, Zootopia tells the story of rabbit Judy Hopps in her evolving dream to police the streets of the the titular animal metropolis. Along the way, she forms a partnership with the cunning fox, Nick Wilde. While the film may have catered to younger audiences in its animation style, the strong, articulate commentary it makes on race and racism remains its most impressive feat. This week, we’re joined by Charneil Bush to discuss and review this film that is just as much creative fun as it is earnest reflection. Does an animated film succeed where more raw calls for conversation won’t? How does art help us relate to the world with more compassion, clarity and patience?

Disney's misguided cartoon about racism (they're actually against it this time), "Zootopia," received a 2016 Academy Award nomination for Animated Feature and is currently sitting at 98% on Rotten Tomatoes. Yet the best analogy the filmmakers could come up with to approach this prickly subject was to cast the feared majority groups as predatory animals capable of "going savage" and the fearful minority groups as prey. Hmm. The fact that drawing these parallels is incredibly abhorrent somehow eluded them. The lead character, Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin) is a spunky little rabbit who trades on her underdog status while constantly threatening and intimidating anyone who tries to get in her way. The secondary lead is Nick Wilde (voiced by Jason Bateman, who is pretty much the same sarcastic prick with a heart of gold that Bateman has played time and time again ever since "Arrested Development"). Zootopia's theme song, "Try Everything," by Shakira is easily one of the most annoying Disney songs ever written. It's not quite the same caliber as "It's a Small World," but it's certainly a contender. We mock this giant Apple commercial for its muddled metaphors and its terrible sense of humor, but we also wonder what exactly happened to one particular species of mammal that is eerily missing from this movie: we humans.

It's happened again. Paul has become obsessed with another movie, necessitating a bonus episode that simply couldn't fit in the regular Gobbledygeek schedule. This time, Paul is wild about Disney's Zootopia, which tells the story of bunny cop Judy Hopps and con fox Nick Wilde, who team up on a case that goes to surprising lengths in uncovering systemic oppression in the animal kingdom. Paul and Arlo discuss the film's take on racism and sexism, debate its effectiveness in shedding light on those subjects, and discover some truly hideous "fan art."

## Advagg* First, can you give us an overview of what Advagg is? ## The Drupal 8 Port* Are you the main maintainer of the D8 version?* What was the porting process like?* What features are in the Drupal 8 version right now?* What's the status of the Drupal 8 version?* Do you know of any compatibility issues with other modules?* What do you have planned for the future?
★★★★ • Réalisé par Byron Howard, Rich Moore, Avec Ginnifer Goodwin, Jason Bateman, Shakira, Idris Elba, J. K. Simmons • Zootopia est une ville qui ne ressemble à aucune autre : seuls les animaux l'y habitent. On y trouve des quartiers résidentiels élégants comme le très chic Sahara Square, et d'autres moins hospitaliers comme le glacial Tundratown. Dans cette incroyable métropole, chaque espèce animale cohabite avec les autres. Qu'on soit un immense éléphant ou une minuscule souris, tout le monde à sa place à Zootopia. Lorsque Judy Hopps fait son entrée dans la police, elle découvre qu'il est bien difficile de s'imposer chez les gros durs en uniforme, surtout quand on est une adorable lapine. Bien décidée à faire ses preuves, Judy s'attaque à une épineuse affaire, même si cela l'oblige à faire équipe avec Nick Wilde, un renard à la langue bien pendue et véritable virtuose de l'arnaque...
Judy Hopps is a bunny rabbit from farm country who always wanted to be a police officer in the big mammal-filled metropolis of Zootopia, where all of the animals have given up their predator/prey ways in order to live in harmony and can be what they really dram to be in life -- at least, that's the ideal they strive to achieve. She ends up getting her wish when she's hired as the first rabbit in the new-look ZPD (Zootropia Police Department). Not being a large or sturdy mammal, she isn't taken seriously, relegated to the somewhat thankless token role as meter maid. Nick Wilde is a sly fox in town who spends all his days working on big cons, including fleecing bleeding-heart Judy from a bit of money he parlays into much more. Eventually, Judy leans on the highly connected Nick in order to provide information on an actual criminal case she stumbles into, and after a run-in with her tough-as-nails boss, she ends up having to solve within 48 hours, involving a missing otter. The investigation leads to uncovering a much bigger story involving predators going back to their old ways and causing a state of fear once again among the overwhelming majority populace of prey that leads to an increasing level of mistrust toward whole groups of animals who've done nothing wrong.
Directors Byron Howard and Rich Moore discuss their latest animated film. In Zootropolis, a city where animals from every environment live together, Officer Judy Hopps, the very first bunny on the police force, jumps at the opportunity to crack her first case, partnering with fast-talking, scam-artist fox Nick Wilde to solve the mystery. Hosted by Ali Plumb at the Apple Store, Covent Garden in London.
Inside The Mouse Castle: Disney News, Information and Commentary
Harrison Ford told Jimmy Kimmel last week that Star Wars: The Force Awakens is "really, really good." He praised his young costars Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Adam Driver and Oscar Isaac and added, "J.J. (Abrams) has made an incredible movie. You will not be disappointed at all. I promise you," On this week's ITMC, Tim and Anthony failed to mention that Ford was also wearing a hot dog costume at the time of the interview (it was Kimmel's Halloween show). We're not sure why this is relevant, but it must have something to do with why we haven't seen Luke Skywalker in the movie poster or trailer. But, we digress. Harrison Ford likes The Force Awakens. That's all that matters. And on a side note, we're pretty sure the first trailer for Captain America: Civil War will screen in theaters prior to Star Wars. Like you needed another reason to hit the cinema on December 18. Here's what else we're Forcing you to listen to today Inside The Mouse Castle: Asian actress Pom Klementieff is rumored to have joined the cast of James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. At the time we recorded the show, we weren't sure what her role would be. Now we believe she'll play Mantis, who's kind of a badass telepathic martial artist in Marvel canon. If true, Mantis will be quite the match-up next to Gamora and her messed-up sister Nebula. Disney announced the principal voice cast for Zootopia. We already knew about Jason Bateman and Ginnifer Goodwin as the leads Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps. Now we know that Idris Elba, J.K. Simmons, Bonnie Hunt, Octavia Spencer, Alan Tudyk and Tommy Chong are also lending their talents to the Byron Howard/Rich Moore-directed film. And yet, despite that deep roster, we're still not excited about Zootopia, which opens on March 4, 2016. We're also not too excited about Alice Through the Looking Glass, the follow-up to Tim Burton's bloated, joyless--but immensely profitable--Alice in Wonderland. Brief video teases for the upcoming film, which opens next Memorial Day weekend, have been popping up online. Meh. The one glimmer of hope that might make us care about the film is that it's being directed by James Bobin of The Muppets and Flight of the Conchords fame. Is Hocus Pocus 2 finally going to be a thing? Maybe. Maybe not. Producer David Kirschner has hinted that the long-rumored sequel to the 1993 comedy could eventually land on the Disney Channel. No word if Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy would be back as the Sanderson sisters, but all three have teased in the past that they'd be interested. Disney Infinity is giving fans of Pixar's The Good Dinosaur a peek at some of the film's characters three week's before the movie opens. The caveboy Spot made his debut this week as a playable character in the video game. His dinosaur buddy Arlo and their three T-rex cohorts are also available as ride-able Power Disc characters. It's a good month to be a Disney collector with deep pockets. Auction house Bonhams and Van Eaton Galleries are both conducting auctions of rare (and yes, pretty expensive) Disney memorabilia. Don't worry, there's stuff you might be able to afford too. I'll have more about these two exciting events in this Friday's episode of The Mouse Castle Lounge. If you're Scarlett Johansson, you can visit Walt Disney World and ride the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror with your husband just like any normal person. You can also have your souvenir photo conveniently deleted much to the chagrin of your surprised ride buddies. Good thing there are persistent resort guests and TMZ to bring the pic to the light of day. It's actually a really cute photo.
