Finally Saw Zootopia Today... My Thoughts
9 years ago
General
I finally just saw the film at the cinema today, and it was as interesting as the clips that i saw on TV before it came out. And this being the first time that i've watched a Disney film in theaters since i saw Wreck-It Ralph four years ago. I thought it was a pretty decent film for what it is, and the fact that it is only the fourth feature it the canon to have absolutely no human characters at all after Robin Hood, The Lion King, and Chicken Little. It certainly ended up being better than i'd initially thought from the early sneak peeks that i saw.
So overall on a scale of 1 to 10, i give it a 7.9.

Eh well, to each their own i guess. I don't go to the theaters nearly as much as when i was a little kid. That's mostly because there aren't a lot of movies in the cinemas that i'd really consider worth seeing these days. I still thought this was an interesting film even though the alternate universe/anthropomorphic animal plot has been done before.
I do see where you're coming from though as this is the first time that i've been to the theater in nearly two years. The last movie i saw in the cinema before this was Godzilla 2014.
I agree with you about Star Wars as i only watch the true versions aka the original three as they were seen in theaters, and yet George created the lousy, touched up "Special Edition" versions and disregarded the originals as not being his original vision. The forcing down the throats of these revised versions upon fans was and still is a big middle finger to those who grew up with the films as originally released. I'm in the same ball park about the prequels too in that i can hardly watch them at all, i can only barely manage to sit through Episode III without zoning out.
That is mostly those who latched onto the Special Editions and can't be convinced that the pointless CG additions and horrible added/remade songs greatly detract from what made the films good originally. The revisionism that went into the '97 SE re releases and beyond robbed the films of the magic and labor that went into their production, which goes especially for Episode IV. That showed what George was able to accomplish with the technological limitations of the mid '70s. The alterations only add insult to injury, yet you can't tell that to the clueless fanboys who have only ever watched the post SE versions and never seen the original theatrical cuts of the films. Sad but true!!!
