The rabbit, who wanted to be a policeman, had been told since he was a child, "How can a rabbit be a policeman", but he went to Zootopia without hesitation. She believes that in this city, everyone has an equal right to realize their dreams.
However, when I saw the rabbit go to work on the first day, the leopard at the front desk was turned over by her. She kept saying that it is so cute, so cute, so cute. She said seriously: "It’s okay for the rabbit to say that the rabbit is cute, but it’s up to you. It's a bit wrong for the leopard." At this time, I realized that this animation is not that simple.
Then the rabbit opened the door, stood among a group of lions, tigers and rhinos, and desperately climbed onto the huge seat, only to be seen by the officer's ears.
The other policemen received the task, and only the rabbit was assigned to write a parking ticket.
On more than one occasion, rabbits were said by officials, foxes, and unrelated passers-by (road animals?): Rabbits are rabbits. Faced with predators, they can only escape.
In an instant, we fell back to reality from the utopian zoo city.
Classmates, see clearly, if the rabbit is replaced by a girl, this is an old question. If you can't change the conditions, you won't be able to do it.
If you are a girl, then the above scenes and dialogues should be quite familiar. They keep repeating in our lives:
because you are a girl, you can't be a pilot/can't be a Ph.D./can't be a computer programmer.
When you make even a little mistake in school or in the company, someone will always say, "After all, you are a woman, and you really can't do things well."
If you desperately get the first place in the school, the first place in the company's performance, and come to a higher and more competitive platform, you enter a new environment with high expectations, only to find that-looking at it, it is all men. When you are eager to take over the task to prove your ability, but you find that the team's expectation of you is just "you just need to be a cute girl".
Over the years, Disney’s animation has taught girls to be simple and kind little princesses. After eating poisoned apples, the prince will naturally come to rescue them, and even if the prince is under the sleeping curse, they can wait for the prince to kiss them. Girls don’t need IQ or physical strength, they only need beautiful ones! ——If you bring such thoughts into your life, you will probably be slapped in the face by the cruel reality.
The prince and crystal shoes do not exist, this is the world we have to face.
On the contrary, it is such a film of animal characters, which is very realistic. Animals that stand at the bottom of the food chain like rabbits will be buried in the shadow of lions and tigers when they enter places like Animal City. She is the number one rabbit in the police school, passionate and aggressive. However, others, including our audience, always see her fluffy ears at first sight, and their first reaction is to say to her that they are cute. Her strength as a police officer has been repeatedly ignored.
Speaking of ears, I am reminded of a TED talk by Michael Kimmel on gender equality that I saw earlier, and gave a particularly vivid example: what a white male sees in the mirror is a person. What black women see in the mirror every morning is black women. Her skin color and gender are clearly visible on her face. And the most terrifying thing about prejudice is that people with prejudice turn a blind eye to prejudice. When they are a majority and a strong group in society, they take their own characteristics for granted and set them by default-those who are different from them, Will be noticed as an alien. So why would anyone notice rabbit ears? Because rhinos, tigers and bears are commonplace in police stations, they are already set by default.
Such prejudice not only harms the rabbits at the bottom of the food chain, but also the lions and tigers above their heads.
The fox is always regarded as a treacherous liar, so Mr. Fox can only go to the pit and kidnap.
Sheep always gives people the impression that she is submissive, so she can only be a small assistant behind Mayor Lion.
People always think that leopards are fierce and fierce, but they didn't expect the leopard at the front desk of the police station to be a little princess with a girlish heart and like doughnuts.
Mayor Lion is regarded as a representative of violent carnivores because he is a lion.
But is such a stereotype really good? If rabbits can only grow radishes for a lifetime, foxes can only be liars for a lifetime, and the lion is born as the lion king Mufasa-then why should they work hard? Take a look at the first inspirational Godfather of Shrew (here to pay tribute to Marlon Brando) in Zootown. He is only the size of a fist, but he can be subdued by a group of sturdy polar bears in black suits. Who said Shrews can't be godfathers?
Stereotypes are deeply ingrained, and following tradition seems to be the easiest option. Some people, like Mr. Fox, gave up their dreams because of childhood shocks and were willing to be a "fox in everyone's eyes." There are also people like the sheep secretary. Because they can't stand the lion's arrogance, they want to use conspiracy to stigmatize carnivores. Although they stand up, they have made the inherent prejudices of this society more serious.
However, there are also people who are like little rabbits, who are soft and cute but insist on their dreams.
Her parents said that the most suitable job for rabbits is to grow carrots, but she still has no hesitation in becoming a policeman.
The police test was full of difficulties. Faced with a huge competitor, the rabbit still got the first place.
Faced with a leopard who said she was "so cute" as soon as she met, she could directly point out that the other party's evaluation was not appropriate.
After copying two hundred parking tickets, the little rabbit was able to snatch the case from the sheriff's hands, and it could be said that he worked hard to act like his life.
Even if the world is not beautiful and perilous, even if she is a herbivore at the bottom of the food chain-she insists on rushing forward.
So I said, compared to the princess movie, this film is more worthy of girls watching. There is no crystal shoe or prince in this story. The only thing that can let you be seen and recognized is the burning heart and unremitting efforts. The crown is not given by anyone, but you win it yourself. From "Brave" to "Frozen" to this "Crazy Zoo", the girls in the animation are getting stronger and stronger, which is a good thing.
I always hope that those girls who are struggling in society can be brave. When someone said to us, "It's useless to work so hard, it's better to go home and take the kids", we can hold on to our dreams and not relax. When someone doesn't see our results, but only pays attention to how cute our appearance is, we can say loudly like Judy the Bunny, "It's not appropriate for you to say that." When our abilities are underestimated and no influential work is available, we can take the initiative to say, please give me that work, and work hard to do it well. Don't ignore the power of courage, this is what many girls lack. We are always worried that we are working too hard and being too strong, for fear of being labeled as a strong woman (yes, some people use this as a derogatory term)-a strong lion is a lion king with a leadership temperament. What the hell is a strong rabbit?
A strong rabbit is the one that will become the first police rabbit. She may not be called cute anymore, she may almost become a dinner for otters, leopards and coyotes. But this is also much better than abandoning the dream and returning to my hometown to grow carrots, and then becoming a member of the army of rabbits (infinite loop).
Besides, she also harvested a Mr. Fox, right?
In the past few years, Disney has gone further and further on the road of creating male gods. In the past few years, Da Bai defeated various Korean drama male protagonists and became the number one warm man. This time Mr. Fox demonstrated to us the textbook-like skills of making girls. , The drooping eyes are really scornful and gentle, and the action of pressing the crying bunny to his chest simply bursts our old aunt's young girl's heart. Although the fox is just a street liar, he has a bad personality and likes to bully, but he is much more flesh and blood than the veteran princes in Disney animations. In the previous animations, the prince is a more facial and non-existent character than the princess. Time has changed. Girls want to see not just the label "Prince", nor the looks and wealth attached to him, etc.-the guy who can work hard for dreams with you and take risks with you when you have nothing. ——Even if you are not a species, it is worth your sincerity to him.
Zootopia, as the name suggests, is a utopia of animals. Here rabbits can be policemen, foxes can also be good people, shrews can be godfathers, and sheep can be behind the scenes. Everyone is free to be what they want to be. It is also said that such a world can only appear in cartoons, and this movie exists only to maintain political correctness. Yes, our world is not that beautiful. Weak people like herbivores who step into society may be hit by the cruel reality in no time. This world is far more politically incorrect than we have seen-
so good, breaking the dream of the princess and prince is the first step. When we begin to see the prejudices that we are used to, and when we realize that those "unconscious assumptions" are wrong, we can change them.
