What an odd trailer.
You would think that most people understand the concept of a funny animal by now.
Or lift running lawn mowers to trim hedges.You'd think we wouldn't have to put "DO NOT DRINK THIS" on bottles of drain opener, but that's the world we live in now.
Thing is, it's more explaining Zootopia's take on "funny animals". Most times when anthro is used in mainstream entertainment, the characters are mostly portrayed as human, using animal behavior pretty sparingly. Does Mickey act much like a mouse? Zootopia seems to be going full force with a society where the animals look more human, and are "civilized", but still act and think in many ways that are true to their species. This includes instincts, special adaptations, and stereotypes people have come up with for animals (foxes are sly tricksters, lions are regal and sophisticated, rhinos are gruff, and gnus are stupid). This is a world built by animals, not animals living in place of humans in the regular world.What an odd trailer.

A recent tweet from Rich Moore implies that Alan Tudyk will be in this film. I'm glad to hear that, I like it when voice actors who were in previous Disney movies pop up in other ones (Sterling Holloway, for example) and I'm totally up for Alan Tudyk being the John Ratzenberg of Disney.

Well, in Shark Tale the fish were just humans with fins...
