Emmy Rossum would have been a superior Belle imo. She can belt out a proper tune.

That would have been too weird for me because I mainly know her as Bulma from Dragonball Evolution.

Well, it'd certainly be too soon for live-action Zootopia...

opinions like assholes and all that but Rossum actually has classical training so wouldn't have needed to autotune. And now I wonder what this movie would have been like with Gerard Butler as Gaston

So apparently Gary Goldman pitched a film idea to Disney about a city filled with animals and was turned down, and is now suing Disney alleging that they then proceeded to steal the idea and make Zootopia.

Some of these comparisons seem like a big stretch, but I'm wondering how much merit this actually might have.

Probably almost zero. This sort of thing happens all the time.

Hmmm...
I can't imagine that who ever was hearing that pitch and Byron Howard and the team that wrote it was ever in the same room ever. Disney just seems like way too big of a company, there's no way they would risk the reputation hit.

Also, lol 'THEY STOLE MY IDEA WHERE LIONS AND TIGERS AND BEARS RULE OVER ALL THE SMALLER ANIMALS. ORIGINAL CONCEPT DO NOT STEAL.'

please do not get me started with how horrible emmy rossum was in phantom because I will never stop

it wasn't her fault she was horribly miscast just like everyone else in that movie who wasn't patrick wilson but she was incredibly bad and probably wouldn't have been much better as belle

gerard butler would have been a fun gaston tho. fun fact the guy who played gaston in the animated movie played the phantom in the lesser known phantom musical by yeston and kopit, the more you know.

Especially when the idea is "what if there was a city of animals where the cute animal wasn't taken seriously" as Zootopia isn't even the first frigging thing to do that ever.

There was a GHOST here.
It's gone now.
I want to make a movie about a young professional woman who just can't get her love life together. She meets a cocky but handsome schmuck and they spend the entire first act fighting. But over the course of the second act, they connect by learning about each other and he teaches her to loosen up while she teaches him to care more for others. But WOAH! There's a secret revealed that sends the lady packing! The third act is the guy racing to the airport/train station/social function to win back his love before the big decision that's been hanging over her head the entire movie threatens to sweep her away! And all the quirky supporting cast help him break laws and stall the woman until he can reach her just at the last second! He confesses his love in a heartfelt romantic speech and she remembers that, oh yeah, this is the dude she wants to marry! So they kiss and all the characters cheeeeer! OOOO:

THE END!









(Alright, not totally an animated film thing but I'll be hosed sideways if it doesn't keep happening.)

Not at first, IIRC. He originally was just hypnotized to take on the Captain Underpants persona whenever someone snapped their fingers near him; he didn't get actual superpowers until a few books in.

As I recall the beginning of it was but then after the line "You won't get a sniff without me!" it switches over to Jim Cummings (I think Irons blew out his voice or something during the song and couldn't finish it).

Jim Cummings also did the singing for Christopher Lloyd in Anastasia. He also voiced your childhood if you were born in the mid-late eighties or early nineties (or arguably beyond).

Four days in and BatB is already the biggest (domestic) film of 2017 so far with a cool $188 million. Logan is beating it in worldwide box office but that probably won't last long ...
