A teaser has been released, and I hope it does better than "Chicken Little".

Course, seeing as how "Frozen" and "Big Hero 6" had gotten critical acclaim (and both won the Oscars), I trust they'll deliver well~
 
It's been way too long since Disney has done a talking animal movie. I'm definitely looking forward to this.
 
Disney's been on a winning streak lately, so I have high expectations for Zootopia. The character designs are quite charming and I like the humor displayed in the trailer. ^^
 
Movie looks both cute and awesome - going to see it in the movies
Have high hopes and hype for Zootopia
that fox looks cute
 
"IT'S A FURRY MOVIE! IT IS GOING TO SUCK!"
To people who say that, STFU.
I have good hope for this. Wonder what the plot is going to be like.
 
Okay, here's the voice list officially released for the movie:

Nick Wilde (Jason Bateman), a fox working with a rabbit partner to solve a crime in the city of “Zootopia”.

Judy Hopps (Ginnifer Goodwin), a rabbit trying to make it as a cop in the Zootopia Police Department.

Chief Bogo (Idris Elba), a bison serving as the head of the Zootopia Police Department.

Mrs. Otterton (Octavia Spencer), whose missing husband kicks off the plot.

Leodore Lionheart (J.K. Simmons), a kindhearted mayor of Zootopia.

Yax (Tommy Chong), a yak that seeks enlightenment.

Benjamin Clawhauser (Nate Torrence), a chubby cheetah who works at the Zootopia Police Department.

Bellwether (Jenny Slate), "sheepish" assistant to the mayor.

Duke Weaselton (Alan Tudyk), a small-time weasel crook with a big-time mouth.

Flash (Raymond Persi), the fastest sloth at his job: the DMV.
 
I absolutely love anthros and fox is my favourite animal, so I have quite high hopes for this movie. I hope it delivers. Disney usually does a pretty good job with the movies, so I know at least I won't be disappointed. Then it's just a matter of how much I'll enjoy/like it.

Still... when will Disney make a 2D movie again? 3D is great and all, but I'm tired of it. It doesn't help that other studios mostly make 3D animated movies, too. I liked when Disney was making 2D ones regularly because it brought some variety.

I hate to say it, but audiences weren't particularly enthusiastic about recent 2D films like "The Princess and the Frog" and "Winnie the Pooh", which might be the reason...they were going to make Frozen 2D, did you know that?

Also, seriously? No one else got the inside joke about Alan Tudyk's role? Duke Weaselton?

I don't know about Winnie the Pooh, but The Princess and the Frog was somewhat disappointing, so I'd blame the writing rather than the medium. Don't get me wrong, I like Disney's 3D movies (especially Reck-it Ralph) and I can understand their hesitation, but I'm worried of them either using 2D just for side short movies or not making any 2D movies at all and going down the road of staleness in terms of art and style.
 
Well, my friends and family thought the inside joke was hilarious...but since I gotta explain it to everyone here (and I commonly dislike explaining the joke)...

In "Frozen", Alan plays the Duke of Weselton, the location of which is commonly mispronounced "Weaseltown" as a running gag. Hence, Duke Weaselton.
