Zootopia marketing inspires visions of a feature length Orangina commercial. This short article shares a new image and says the movie is having “aggressive marketing”. And Reddit furries discuss hot tigers:
- “There’s no denying that they know who they’re marketing to.”
- “Big, beefy, sparkly tigers. They know what they’re doing with stuff like these, and nobody’s gonna tell me otherwise.”
- “And people still claim they’re not marketing to us. ha. ha. ha.”
