Zootopia Research Paper

Shrek began as an animated movie from DreamWorks Studios in 2001 based on a children’s book of the same name. It was a huge success, spawning three sequels, a spin-off, and the musical adaption reviewed here. The movie, about the eponymous ogre hired to rescue Princess Fiona by Lord Farquaad, is an irreverent take on traditional fairy tale conventions, and subverts many of the most common archetypes found in fairy tales. Though tongue-in-cheek and at times slightly crude, the themes of reserving judgment and the value of friendship are distinct throughout.

SpongeBob SquarePants should be the archetype for synergistic corporate product placement. With SpongeBob’s insurgence into popular culture, there have been similar synergistic trends of product placement. Support for this notion is found through looking back to 2004, days before the premier of the SpongeBob SquarePants movie in New York. Paramount, another Viacom subsidiary, launched a brand new SpongeBob SquarePants amusement park theme ride to coincide with the movie launch. Additionally, Burger King (also owned by Viacom), released a SpongeBob SquarePants value meal that comes with SpongeBob SquarePants plastic figurines from the movie – ‘collect all 42.’ Nickelodeon, the Viacom subsidiary that operates SpongeBob must not be ignored. Nickelodeon aired a 24-hour SpongeBob SquarePants Marathon that hyped up kids for the movie and forced unsuspecting parents to shell out $12 a ticket. Furthermore, during the Marathon’s commercial breaks, SpongeBob advised the viewers to eat SpongeBob value meals, collect all 67 figurines, and go to Paramount Theme Parks to try his new ride.

Both Dumbo and Peter Pan make regular appearances in the Disney franchise today. For example, Dumbo is undergoing a remake due to premiere in 2019 and still has merchandise and rides dedicated to it in Disney Parks. In

Have you ever thought you understood something? Until you dig a little deeper and realize something has always been there right in front of your face and never realized it? Like little inside jokes and playing tri blue from where you started. I had a party in my backyard with a few close friends, singing to K-pop, or Korean music. My Korean friend proceeded to laugh when someone was trying to sing a song lyric in Korean, or at least her version of the song. The translation to what my friend was singing was “Cats and almonds and I’m going to eat your face, two very different lines then the song lyrics themselves. Our new inside joke is “Cats and Almonds” However in cinema and amusement parks, we call these ‘inside jokes’ “easter eggs”. Whether they were created because of a challenge, or simply a memorial to remember where the creators started from, these inside jokes can be found everywhere in Disney. First, we will be revealing the easter eggs important to the people behind the magic. Second, we will find the secret meaning of the, oh I can’t find it... hidden mickeys and finally the movie connection easter eggs that have sparked many Disney theories.

I experience inattentional blindness when I watch movies. It isn’t until after I hear from a friend of some online message board that I’ve missed something. When I watch Disney movies with my niece I found that they are notorious for paying homage to past movies into newer ones. For instance I recently watched “Big Hero Six” and there were a lot of hid characters from the movie “Frozen” such as the villainous Hans on Wanted Poster on a bulletin board in a police station or marvel matriarch Stan Lee who made an animated cameo appearance into movie that centered around being a hero, ironically. Ever since I found out I found out that I was missing the originality of the movies from a creative standpoint, however now that I know hidden Easter

To be told one cannot do something because they are the wrong gender or race should not be an issue in today’s world. However, this rather unfortunate problem is very prevalent in modern society, so much in fact, that Disney created an animated film based on the subject. In their 2016 film, Zootopia, Disney addressed this issue in the form of an allegory of a rabbit pursuing her dream career: becoming a police officer. The issue with the main character, Judy Hopps’s, dream, is she not considered the right species to be a police officer. Sharing a world with other, way larger mammals, such as bears, wolves, elephants and buffalos, many people repeatedly tell Judy she is too small or cute to become an officer. The film also offers a second character, Nick Wilde, a fox, whose story shows the difficulty of growing up under negative labels based on his species, just as many people grow up under labels based on their race.

Additionally, the other characters in Zootopia such as “Chief Bogo: head of the Zootopia Police Department, Mayor Lionheart: the noble leader of Zootopia, and Assistant Mayor Bellwether: a sweet sheep… who constantly finds herself under foot of the larger-than-life Mayor Lionheart” (“Walt Disney,” n.d.) are all alike to humans. Officer Clawhauser: the chubby and charming cheetah who loves to eat donuts, Finnick: a fennec fox who is the partner in crime of Nick Wilde, and Flash: “the fastest sloth working at the DMV - the Department of Mammal Vehicles” (“Walt Disney,” n.d.) also contribute in the same way to Zootopia’s theme of animals behaving like humans. Chief Bogo serves as a barrier to Judy Hopps’ dreams in the first part of the movie,

When it comes to escapism and excitement, you simply can’t beat a good movie, which is why the Hollywood movie industry is currently worth billions upon billions. Each and every single day, millions of people from all corners of the globe, settle down in front of their TVs, or movie screens, to enjoy their favourite movies. As far as popular genres go however, you’d be hard-pressed to find a more popular and lucrative genre than movies aimed at children. If you’ve got a little would-be film critic in the making, here’s a look at just a few of the most popular children’s movies of all time, that can be enjoyed, not only by children, but by adults as well.

“Knowledge of methods alone will not suffice; there must be the desire, the will to employ them” (Dewey, 1933, p. 29). According to McCroskey (1997), “WTC refers to the probability of engaging in communication when the opportunity is given” (p. 129). MacIntyre and Gardner (1994) identify two forms of anxiety: general anxiety and communicative anxiety.

The film Zootopia, written and directed by Byron Howard and Rich Moore, follows the life of a small, yet spirited rabbit as she endures the trials angst of pursuing a profession as a big- city police officer. The city of Zootopia is a lively, thriving metropolis where Judy Hopps, the story’s protagonist, bravely embarks on her dream of pursuing a career in law enforcement. The writers employ a buoyant, kid-friendly storyline to comment on a myriad of social injustices and inequalities abounding in modern-day society. Feminist literary criticism utilizes feminist ethic and ideology to analyze the way in which male supremacy permeates the language and themes ingrained within literature. It allows readers to observe literature from a renewed, unorthodox perspective, and therefore extends the spectrum of accepted ideas and convictions. Zootopia is wrought with commentary on the pervasive presence of female oppression in the workforce. Oft beleaguered Judy Hopps combats disrespect and prejudice from her colleagues, condescension from her family and community, and gender bigotry that requires her to continuously prove herself as both a legitimate and qualified officer.

Do you believe that fate is real, or do you just believe that everything you do is by choice? Whatever you might think, I, for one, believe that fate can be real. If you read this tragic play “Macbeth” by William Shakespeare, maybe you can see and understand why Macbeth had a downfall from his reign. Even though there are some choices he made to help him with his downfall, that couldn’t mean that there was something controlling him, that Macbeth couldn’t escape from? Macbeth had some pretty intense choices to make to help increase the rate of his downfall, but was it all because of choices like becoming king, or fate to have a Thane of Cawdor and a downfall?
