NEW! "Zootopia: Hot Pursuit" Trackless Dark Ride at Shanghai Disneyland 2024. You will see 2 incredible animatronics while going through the queue: Officer Clawhauser & Chief Bogo. The ride is a while chase through Zootopia in one of Officer Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde’s cruisers.

There's rumor that Zootopia land and ride may be coming to Walt Disney World either at Disney's Animal Kingdom or at Magic Kingdom in the future. Do you guys want Disney to build Zootopia at Walt Disney World? or should it just be exclusive to Shanghai Disneyland?

[@allekid]

The animateonic movements are pretty insane

[@blastedcorpse271]

I came here to say this. HOW COOL! I can't believe that some are not humans in costumes lol.

[@jacobbonlender1378]

I’m all for the integration of screens to further immerse the rider in the story by adding background details, but I feel like the stationary scenes that focus solely on watching a screen to tell the story take the viewer out of the moment and make you hyper-aware that it’s a simulation.

[@charondusk5608]

I think it's the "stationary" part that makes those sections particularly irritating for me. If you're still moving, you can still imagine that you're part of the action as the ride intends, but being made to hold still breaks that immersion. If you MUST be stationary, have some other kind of stimulation, maybe jets of air or vibration in the seats, to keep it going.

[@GHProductionss]

@@charondusk5608 The worst, offender, in my opinion, is the new Remy ride at EPCOT. The queue is so great and hyped me up for the ride so well with all the little items scaled way up, all for it to be a trackless ride that does nothing new with the tech and insists on stopping in front of a screen every minute. I feel like these aren't even fun for kids, and Disney knows this, because even here they have the real animatronics at the end for kids to go "Look! There's my favorite character in real life!" when they should have felt like they were with them the whole ride.

[@stevenn4020]

I wonder if amusement parks realize the opportunity they have now. With integrated screens and ai, they can literally make every ride different each time.

[@gissneric]

I actually love the detail on 5:50 when they were inside a moving train. The fish on hooks were moving as well even though they're just in one place 😂

[@IndriidaeNT]

Zootopia Day in the Zootopia attraction, Zootopia: Hot Pursuit is possibly the day that the city of Zooptoia was first founded and established similar to how Empire Day in the Star Wars franchise was the day the Galactic Empire was first founded and established same for Radiator Springs 1 ½ holiday where Radiator Springs also was first founded in the Tales from Radiator Springs episode, “Radiator Springs 1 ½.”

[@DaveSParty]

The screens are built into the scenes so well especially around 7:20. The Animatronics so fluid with video eyes built very well. Impressive scene decoration.

[@bonniedavidson5940]

That’s what I was thinking, too! I love the detail of how Judy’s flashlight beam is shown shining on the objects around

[@thecunninlynguist]

good mix of video and animatronics. the finale chase portion looks fast, even if it's just a screen.

[@livvylisvlog8106]

I rode this ride during Christmas and I was AMAZED by how much it FEELS like you are moving. The cars actually move left and right, forwards and backwards matching with the video on the screens and it just makes it feel REAL!

[@eraser2592]

The environmental storytelling in the prison is great. You can see how bellweather escaped as you go through the prison

[@simply_solo]

i love the queue! reminds me of the spiderman/daily bugle queue in universal studios orlando

[@joelk4751]

Really well done. The best integration of screens and physical sets I've seen. You don't even realize it's a screen sometimes. And proof that nobody does animatronics like Disney can.

[@1ronEntertainment]

You should see Jurassic world adventure at universal Beijing. Their screens and animatronics are both much more advanced there.

[@samplautz5586]

Ya I’ve seen they have a T. rex that actually follows you

[@DervinPlayz]

So many dark rides coming out this year!

[@IDaydreamALittleTooMuch]

Really wish Euro Disney and US parks would get some love too. I've never seen more fluid animatronics in my life except maybe in the Star Wars ride.

[@jbvoices8972]

Wow, amazing ride! Good length, seamless transitions from projections to live action and very busy! I would ride this over and over again. Thanks for sharing!

[@deshonjb]

Wow. Incredible!

Very generous ride. It's plenty long with a lot to see, variety of gags, thrills, surprises and show pieces. Hope the usa parks get to see this, a good "whole family" ride.

[@xl_ULTIMATUM_lx]

I really hope Zootopia 2 is dark toned. Like it was already a bit dark kinda due to the current stage of the world we live in, but the second needs to be darker than its predecessor

[@rustyshakleford69]

Looks awesome

[@marcuscheng2507]

Can’t wait to check it out!

[@DallasWB]

the animatronics for the queue is so epic.... i wouldn't even mind if disney just made queues that you can walk through and experience a story like that...

[@shanepleasants6280]

Zootopia is Disneys best animated feature in the last 20 years not even close

[@CookArtMiami]

We need this ride in Animal Kingdom in Orlando

[@jaykay1899]

This doesn’t really fit the vibe of animal kingdom. Yes they’re animals but it just doesn’t feel right to me

[@unrellated]

@@jaykay1899 They're planning to replace It's Tough to be a Bug with a Zootopia show. And if anything doesn't fit the vibe of Animal Kingdom, it's the Moana ride they're also planning to build. They should leave the bugs alone and build a copy of this instead of Moana.

[@davidguthrie6316]

NO! They do not belong in Animal Kingdom. Magic Kingdom, or a new park

[@susanhill149]

This looks so cool! I know I’d love it. I wish Disney World in Florida would get some new fun things like this. I feel like they went too much on the Star Wars side of it I like variety.

[@celestiadrools9551]

I would like a Zootopia land to be put in Animal Kingdom, with this ride being put inside the dinosaur ride. It fits better than Indiana Jones.

[@michelelyons9410]

this is incredibly elaborate and immersive. America has nothing like this.

[@butterfingersman]

cmonnnn dont say america has nothing like this, we have rise of the resistance which is the most mindblowingly elaborate and immersive ride ive ever been on and mickey minneys runaway railway isnt far behind this. this is an amazing looking dark ride though with a great mix of practical effects and projection!

[@areebputra855]

COOL

[@joshuatoro8977]

now this looks like something at universal studios would put together not Disneyland this is impressive

[@Marchant2]

This is very impressive.

[@No_James_Here]

This ride is so cool, I do hope it does come to Animal Kingdom, be such a great expansion

[@flyingfish7787]

I like the usage if Transparent monitor displays. It’s more immersive than showing everything on one layer of screen. However, it need more mixtures of screens and real props and backgrounds. In that way, it can gain both the good stuff of being realistic and having free expressions in the same time. Wish someone find ways to fix the problem and upgrade it. Will like to have one in Tokyo Disney.

[@NickBeast-gy2es]

This HAS to come to Animal Kingdom

[@Jayrojo115]

If a zootopia theme is going Animal Kingdom, than this ride go there as it would make the most sense.

[@brianna_lynch]

Great ride! Very similar to Rise Of The Resistance and Mickey And Minnie’s Runaway Railway.

[@ennbee]

Very much so. You can even see a number of particular moments that are essentially re-skins of the same exact mechanical designs as those rides. (The slightly elevated convertible moving forward and back early on from MMRR and the escape pod drop from ROTR are easily recognizable)

[@MrHONEYBEARjr]

neat ride

[@giuseppemarchi3226]

Nice park very good

[@IamSaul-bv9gd]

I love that ride

[@user-xz3dm1mw2b]

cant wait to see this in 30 years in animal kingdom!

[@Lucienda]

I won't deny that it has some impressive animatronics but if you look at the ride objectively isn't it mainly screens and elaborately dressed up hallways?

[@Taijifufu]

Yeah but isn't elaborately dressed up hallways the very definition of a dark ride?

[@thegixlad27]

they’re better dark rides though

[@some-rando]

High effort queue, low effort ride.

[@jmerritt1963]

I don’t get the story. Are we chasing down the prison escapees? Did we get them? Was that when something was hanging from a rope after the sky ride plunged? I have only watched the video once, but it should be more apparent what is going on.

[@coltonandjen]

I love how Disney adults always accuse universal of having only screen based rides, but they look the other way when Disney does it

[@grantmillard8387]

Amazing looking ride. Totally understand having to mute the musical piece to avoid copyright strikes. The final two animatronics seemed below the standard of the rest of the ride.

As always, budget is high and it shows.... Another planet

[@IndriidaeNT]

This ride (Zootopia: Hot Pursuit) is awesome! I can’t wait to ride on it when my family and I visit DisneyWorld in Japan in the future after we get our passports.

[@IndriidaeNT]

I also can’t wait for the Zootopia 3D Show, when it comes out at Discovery Island at Animal Kingdom at DisneyWorld in Orlando, Florida at some point in the future. I hope that it will be a jukebox musical like the Sing franchise and feature Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps singing as a duet, “Hold Me Closer” by Elton John and Britney Spears, and as a solo song for Nick, “Sunday Best” by the Surfaces and “34 Plus 35” or “Positions” by Ariana Grande for Judy Hopps, and Clawhauser and Gazelle singing together as a duet, “Blank Space” by Taylor Swift, and Flash and Priscilla singing very slowly, “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” by Queen and have Fru Fru and her friends sing and perform, “Barbie Girl” by Aqua or even have them all sing original songs like in classic Disney animated musical films or “Let It Goat”, “Can You Feel the Fur Tonight” and “Part of Your Wool” or “I Can’t Wait to be Alpha” or “Be Our Best Fox” or “Ara-Bunny Nights”. Or even have Gazelle, Chief Bogo, Clawhauser, Nick, Judy, Emmet Otterton, Mrs. Otterton and the Otterton kids with the butterfly wings and suspension cords from the Zootopia Plus (2022) episode, “So You Think You Can Prance?” all sing and perform, “Levitating” by Dua Lipa together. Good idea or what?

[@catserver8577]

Welp, China definitely has the US beat in animatronics. Dang. That is beautiful.

[@TacoEX1]

Yep. It’s obvious which of the Disney parks Bob prefers to invest money into.

[@livvylisvlog8106]

Yeah, first the HK Elsa and now the ShangHai Gazelle. Amazing, I think Bob has a favourite…

[@afantasticdream7490]

It's all still US-made, between Imagineering offices in Glendale and Orlando (animatronic fabrication specialists, show programmers who animate the animatronics, etc). Project budget matters a lot but also the generation the animatronic is created.

[@Bigreid92]

@@TacoEX1The Asian Disney Parks are privately funded.

[@gridley]

Although its few audioanimatronics are state-of-the-art, the ride is mainly a series of widescreens. Although its static set decorations are generally elaborate, the ride's format is too much like a stroll through Best Buy's widescreen department. Not sure if this attraction will fly at the Disney parks in Tokyo owned by the Oriental Land Co.

[@Cherry_blzzms]

For Disney world , I saw while they were making new animatronics it looks exactly like the zootopia charecters in the background . I think next year they will make this is animal kingdom

[@amandawilliamson3359]

This is really cute but I just kept imagining Runaway Railroad meets Zootopia.

In the drop on the gomdala scene, where do they move up? Like how In ride of the resistance you go up in the at-at room, I am confused

[@Kev-O33]

lol. its stationary. you dont move. it just exits where it enters then goes to the next room

[@adrimulet5965]

It is so good to know that Disney is investing all of its money and efforts overseas while working hard to destroy the parks right here at home.

In my opinion, a downgraded copy of Rise of the Resistance. However the visuals are stunning and matches the movie. Well done Disney!

[@Blushxii]

I would say rise of resistance mixed with micky and minneys runway rail road,the intro car animatronics,the little room u go into,all the same

They aren't bringing this to Animal Kingdom to replace Dinoland USA and are instead bringing over Encanto which I kinda understand being popular and everything but only a little related to animals because there is a kid that understands them.
