USA Today shares a lot of new Zootopia images and story hints.
Are you excited for Disney’s new furriest movie? Mrs. Otterton’s missing husband spurs the action on. There’s “Duke Weaselton, a small-time weasel crook with a big-time mouth”. Judy Hopps is “a ground-breaking rabbit trying to make it as a cop” – it sounds like bunnies usually aren’t cops, so we get a nice hint about what species means in the Zootopia world. Enjoy more from USA Today’s exclusive Facebook gallery.
You know furries everywhere are getting ready for the 2016 Furmageddon*… in the SF Bay area, dozens are already signed up to go fursuiting to the opening in March. (*I’ve been reminded that Furpocalypse is a convention happening this weekend.)
Furries on NCIS Los Angeles.
Last week there was a CSI-style bad furry stereotype on iZombie. This week, two NCIS characters revealed furriness.
Go to 18:00 in the link. The important part starts at around 19:00. It goes for about a minute, with one more remark before the scene cuts at 21:00. It’s lightly humorous, maybe flirty banter between the two characters. They joke about how furry conventions can “go off the rails”, but that’s the worst judgement. They discuss fursonas and share appreciation, making a nice, innocuous minute in the pop culture spotlight. Isn’t that a relief?
"Yeah, I've been to Califur a few times."
