An important idea in Zootopia is stereotypes aren't always true. I’m going to be writing about the scene where Judy gets top of her class, Nick gets refused service by the elephants, and the ending where Nick and Judy become cops and chase Flash (sloth) in the fast car.
Judy began as a weak bunny at the start of academy training the trainer always said "You're dead" when Judy kept failing. But when Judy fell and failed she kept getting up she never stopped trying until she reached her goal. This helped the audience understand Judy rarely gives up.
Nick in the middle of the movies was a nice and polite fox by trying to get his son a jumbo pop for his birthday, but Nick got refused service because he was a fox the elephant said “Isn’t there an ice cream shop on your side of town” that means the elephant didn't want to serve Nick. This is because Nick was a fox and no one wanted to trust a fox because foxes were known for the sneakiness. This makes the audience think all the foxes are bad.
Judy and Nick at the end of the film broke the stereotypes of foxes being sneaky and untrustworthy and bunnies being dumb when the become real cops. Nick was the first ever fox to join the police force. After Nick graduates, they both get given the same assignment which is to chase the speeding car and it turns out to be flash the sloth. This makes the audience believe that you can be anything.
This is so well-written, Marshall! I hope you are proud of your work. Your essay gives specific details and clearly explains the idea of stereotypes in Zootopia.
