Zootopia is barely two years old. Getting impatient and indigent that they haven't made a sequel yet is loving bizarre and actively rooting for the worst parts of Disney.

I mean just look at Wreck-It-Ralph 2: Ralph Breaks The Internet, that's going to turn out so well - okay, nevermind, couldn't keep a straight face, sorry.

I really hope Zootopia 2 just looks at another angle of prejudice and builds on the first theme instead of dismantling it or raising the stakes per se for no real reason.

Maybe she could do some spy movie shenanigans where she has an action scene in a reptile country, a bird country, an insect country, etc, until she finally uncovers some kind of conspiracy to turn animals against each other again (maybe perpetrated by fish in revenge for their being the acceptable animal everyone is allowed to eat? I feel like the whole "staging a coup to plunge a democratic state into ethnic violence" thing was kinda covered as much as a kid's move is gonna do it in 1

The best Adult Swim April Fools thing is when they hyped it up and then did gently caress all.

There is exactly one funny gag in Ferdinand: "I'm Uno!" "I'm Dos!" "And I'm Quatro!" "What happened to Tres?" <gasp><cross themselves and bow heads> "We do not speak of Tres." My god, what a piece of poo poo. Who the gently caress casts John Cena as a Spanish bull?

Sure love multibillion dollar corporations pretending to be relatable about anxiety when most of our anxiety is a symptom of the capitalist systems that allow them to thrive.

Y'all realize that corporate social media isn't the monolithic Company somehow gaining sapience, it's just some goon at their office that they pay to make Twitter jokes, right? Like, when this kind of thing happens I just assume the staffer got bored and decided to toe the line a bit.

Yes and "toe the line" means specifically to submit to authority and drink the flavorade. Not "subvert an order."

You've got it backwards, LOB. Though I've never heard or read the idiom of "Tow the Line" until some Google search, but you wrote it as "toe" which is the "obey authority" version. As someone who's had to literally toe the line, it's especially meaningful when some instructor dizzies you then punishes your platoon for being unable to stand still in a kill zone. http://grammartips.homestead.com/toetheline.html

To be fair a lot of people understand "toe the line" as "test the boundaries," as in "feel out the line with your toe to see how far you can go without going too far." It's kinda weird but I imagine it's another one of those things that will become an accepted definition in a decade or two
