What Makes Zootopia SO GOOD?

- Until I re-watched Zootopia recently, I never gave it enough credit for it's storytelling, writing, and character building. Jump in with me as I try and put into words why this movie is so dear to so many people.
Also, Michael Giacchino is a genius. Change my mind.
And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so.
-Genesis 1:24

I hope you enjoyed this video! More fun stuff is in the works, so make sure you're subscribed! :D
Something else that should be brought up - I feel like this movie is a master of "Chekhov's gun" principle. There are is just so much setup - payoff. From the rescueing of the little rodent from the giant donut, to the weasel, to the blueberries, the carrot pen - there's just a lot of things that get early eastablishments, and then get used again for a bigger purpoce later. I love that.
It sucks that it couldn’t have been continued onto Bellwether, she has so little setup, so we don’t feel any of the payoff. But I definitely agree with you
Flash: I. Left. A. Pen. On. My. Desk. It. will. be. a. major. pay. off. in. Zootopia 10...
There are super subtle setups too. When Judy first sees Nick, he almost gets run over by the sheep Woolter and Jesse on a crime run, but her prejudice only allows her (and us) to see and be suspicious of Nick
15:48 Well... Seeing, how Nick was refused to buy ice cream just because he's a fox... I suspect that it wasn't the only bad experience he ever had.
That's probably only how he *noticed* life is unfair
My nephew makes us watch this movie at least once a day ….at this point I know every single line …but hey I’m not complaining cause it’s actually fun
I just hope Zootopia 2 will be more mind blowing than ever. I’ve heard a lot of people complaining about the state of today’s Disney films. And now I’m hoping Zootopia 2 will be more awesome than ever.
me too omg
Me three.
Considering Disney’s sequel track record I don’t have high hopes
They always split the iconic pairs apart :(
If they ruin Zootopia with the sequel I'm not going to react nicely
How can't you not love this movie ! The themes it treated are really interesting, the characters so likeable, the comedy is fun and the story great ! It has its flaws as everything do but it's still such an amazing movie.
Surf’s Up 2 is a masterpiece and an achievement in animation. I’m patiently waiting for your apology.
11:01 it’s a way of showing implicit bias instead of straight racism
Her pointing out how he’s articulate implies that other foxes aren’t
I personally love the world building of Zootopia. The way the city has accommodations for all animals, the way the film makes a city full of animals work, It's really great stuff.
The blooper bit at the end is amazing. It's fun listening to you song this song 😆
I really enjoy your film analysis. You do a great job of digging into the muddy depths of what's going on. Well done!
What most people miss about Zootopia is that the movie does just as much to confirm bias as it does to dispel it. Judy is immediately suspicious of Nick because he's a fox... well, no, that's not actually true. She NOTICES Nick because he's a fox, but Nick's shifty behavior is why she suspects him. And, in the end she was right. Nick was, in fact, shifty. Sure, Nick had a big sob story on why he was shifty, but Nick's a grown man. He's responsible for his own behaviors now. But the movie doesn't make light of any of these details. They're all present.
zootopia is a masterpiece
hell yeah it is
@@Judyhopps-1iq im subbing to u💚
It sure is.
This became my favorite Disney movie. Mulan held that titled till then.
Gosh darnit I really thought it would be a whiplash video😢 loved it either way!
How could anyone listen to that singing at the end and not subscribe
On Bellweather: It is actually subtly hinted that she's the bad guy (a bellweather is the bell that some sheep are given to lead their flocks, representing her puppeting the public around like a flock of sheep, and all the reporters that question Judy are prey, suggesting that she might have paid them off, something that a predator wouldn't agree too), but I do think it's still too subtle.
< I do think it's still too subtle.
Not when she had that memo to herself in her office, it wasn't.
Okay. I don't expect to be taken seriously here since I'm an unapologetic Zootopia superfan with no patience/zero tolerance for critics, but as rebuttals to your points about what could've been done better:
1. Some jokes are more subtle than others.
2. The naturalist club - everyone has a vice.
3. Nick confiding in Judy provided a parallel to her own experiences.
4. The third act - being crushed by self-doubt is pretty much a trope in and of itself.
*Oh, and regarding what you said about how Bellewether was revealed as the twist villain, The Devil's in the details.*
14:52 I've also wondered about this. I don't see a way you could reconcile him being an honest family man while also frequenting a nudist club. Maybe you aren't supposed to. I mean, he does have ties with the mob after all.
19:27 Also, I need everyone to appreciate this joke.
Zootopia is my all time favorite animated film that Disney ever made I personally think it’s the best one they ever made even better then their other animated films which I don’t even like or care about
Really loved this video keep up the great work man!
Wait what I thought you would have at least 100k subs this is good quality Ykw you earned yourself a sub
I didn’t even realize this was such a small channel, that’s surprising

This Is Disney's Master Piece!
11:05 ..... what does the fox say?
17:06 Judy didn't become a cop to be famous or succesful, she wants to make the world a better place and with that speech she did the opposite. It is honorable to resign when you realise you are a menace to society. It shows her character. Nobody else shamed her but she had dignity and realised she didn't deserve the badge.
11:10 interestingly enough, writers give Gideon (the only fox that Judy knows) an extremely inarticulate southern drawl. So in the context of the movie, it's actually not presumptuous on Judy to comment on Nicks articulation. I can see what the writers were trying to do but it didn't really work in the context that they set up.
This is my favorite movie
too bad the dinsey like this is gone
Yes.....I appreciate your review of this great movie. I just don't know why you had to go and spoil it and go off on a tangent (for reasons best known to yourself) to refer to a completely different film.....that of the excellent Turning Red - one of the best Pixar movies ever. Yes, all opinion is relative, but I feel RUclipsrs just love to diss Turning Red for cool points. Half the time they haven't even seen the movie or that much of it and seem to take a perverse delight in misrepresenting the plot. In my opinion, it's just ridiculously good and one of the most beautiful animated movies I have ever seen.
Mr.Big is an arctic shrew
Hiii.. Underated gem this one!
hey, kid, have you heard about only lord and savior BEASTARS?
Surf up is one of my favourites😅
Turning red was super relatable to me. She was trying to keep herself separate from the mom for a reason
UR SO UNDERRATED
I loved this movie
Lovely is movie
THANK YOU !!!
Quality review brother man
Turning red is great and relatable.
maybe its pronounced "jih-cheen-oh"?
great video!
This is a great movie
Also love this vid. I share many same sentiments.
hUMOR IS HUMOR EVERYONE LIKES SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
You should check out the avengers movies
I think Zootopia is the Main Capital of Animalia - like Earth for Humans.
i thought the scout scence was sad
the world Buidlilng is Amazing
I love it
They are not Fing Mice! SHREWS SHREWS SHREWS!!!!!!
Not first. 😄
No, no, no, you're completely right about the audience caring about specific characters over the world as a whole. The story world is a mere extension of the characters whose journey we follow. It's what make a movie like The Avengers more than a simple "save the world because it's the right thing to do" story. Think about the character of Jane Foster. She is essentially the reason Thor becomes an Avenger. When Loki threatens Planet Earth, he threatens Jane Foster and that's what get's Thor personally invested in saving Earth.
Back to Zootopia, this movie may have had a weak twist villain in Mayor Bellwether, but it had a stellar antagonist in Nick Wilde.
you think sing is good?
this movie's allegory failed hard
