Hey peoples, if you want to, go on the Fun and Games board and look at the discussion (Nick and Judy). It's a comic I made that shows how Nick and Judy become a couple.
First of all, good day everyone!
After reading many of the comments before mine, I believe that if the directing team bless the world with a sequel, I think it should have our sly fox and optimistic bunny in a platonic relationship for three main reasons:
• First of all one reason that made me fall in love with this movie is the fact that it had zero scenes that didn't promote the action. It is 100% sure that if there were a romantic relationship between them, the movie would start showing some aspects of it, reducing the time of fighting the crime and all that cool stuff and replace it with pointless scenes that serve no purpose but to show us how happy they are as a couple.
• Second, the people like me who just can't see this working out AT ALL, can be counted out of the "targeted audience" (personally if I hear that they're together I'm not going to go watch it... Or so I say XD) whereas if they can come up with a smart script that shows the two heroes pretty close to each other, the shippers would have reason to believe they could be together and the rest of us could just see them as friends (much like what Zootopia 1 has done... In fact, exactly the same amount of controversy if possible, because with the amount we have now, you can follow any way you want without being wrong)
• Another very important point is exactly what Zootopia's definition is on Wikipedia: "Zootopia is a 2016 American 3D computer-animated buddy cop comedy adventure film". I don't want to see the word buddy changed, since it's an aspect of the movie.
Also the most groundbreaking animated film of our time should crush the male+female=romance+kids cliche
Ps: Kids would make all those points and many more even worse. Stay away Disney please.
PPS: as someone said earlier, even though they didn't end up as a couple both shippers and non loved the movie, so I trust the team will make the right choice that serves THE PLOT
Thanks for reading this entire book and just as a disclaimer I'm not against any other opinions.
I don't get big deal
Examples- Elmer Elephant and Tillie Tiger. Bonkers and Fawn. Pith Possum and Doris Deer. Roger Rabbit and Jessica

I completely agree with you. This is what I was thinking. They are cute as friends. I'm happy to find someone who is thinking what I'm thinking. I do respect people's option on whether they should ship them or not but but I don't.
Excuse me for adding 2 comments pretty much "in a row" but I thought I'd add this to one of my previous arguments and maybe add another. Now taking the non shipping audience into account (which according to my experience is about 1 in 5 people) and the movie gross (1 billion $) it is 1/5*1.000.000.000 (assuming Zootopia "2" would get the same gross but the non shippers) which is 200 million "I think, I mean I am just a dumb bunny but we are good at multiplying". Anyway according to my calculations the movie would end up with 800 million (with all the above being true). That is not even remotely close to what a movie such as this could achieve (it's monumental that here in Greece there was NO advertising [at all and yes I'm serious] about the first movie and yet tons of people know it, many more I could have personally ever imagined).
And to add another argument to my previous ones, I wanna ask shippers this: do you really think Disney is even going to develop it like the fan fiction? There has to be a story besides them since there are some non shippers in there. So here is the question: Do you really think that with the little available time they're gonna have for the relationship (still a waste of time if you ask me but I respect opinions) it's gonna look anything like you imagine it?
Chief Bogo had a saying for that: "Life isn't some cartoon musical where you sing a little song and your insipid dreams magically come true." I actually advise everyone to be optimistic as I try to be so myself and I'm gonna advise all of you guys to be too, but I just can't see it happening the way you fantasize it. Again, good day and let's all keep hoping for them to confirm a sequel before any of this is discussed as an actual subject :)
The reason why I think Disney should make this happen is because it will teach children that it is okay to like someone who doesn’t look like them. It will teach them from an early age that it is okay to have certain traits and like someone who is the exact physical opposite of them. It is important for this influence to take root at a younger age because it could help prevent them from being corrupted by their future peers who may hold a different (negative) view on the subject.
Sexual things aside, in which this is a kids movie so the fact that some people are like ‘they’re a fox and a rabbit, how would that even work physically?’, that is a factor that is irrelevant. When developing relationships for things like kid’s movies and books, the message the relationship sends is the most important factor so those who’s minds are in the gutter, get off it.
Showing it with animals is an innocent and easy way for children to get the memo, as they did with the topic of racism and suppression in the first movie. It has been said that children find it easier to relate to characters, so this platform is perfect and it would be a shame (and somewhat foolish) for Disney to pass it up.
Besides, other shows have done interspecies couples and no one so much as batted an eye.
It doesn’t matter to me about their relationship. I just wanted to see the sequel.
