As to why they changed the name...

I have no idea why they changed the name for the UK market. Zootopia makes more sense.

“In the UK we decided to change the US title (Zootopia) to Zootropolis to merely allow the film to have a unique title that works for UK audiences.”

That makes no sense whatsoever. Did Disney think that the "topia" would confuse us?

Yep was thinking the same thing. I'm still not sure as to why they felt they needed to change it.

Pretty dumb imo.

It's "Zoomania" in Germany, which is equally stupid. But it's typical Disney.

SupermanFalls · 03-24-2016, 02:48 PM

Sadly that name change means this has next to no chance of having the title on the steelbooks final art so it'll be another case of waiting for Blufans for me. It's a shame as I don't typically mind the Worlwide editions but it's a bad habit Disney have developed

Smigro · 03-24-2016, 02:53 PM

Wow, that is a pretty bad idea...probably going to pass on this now. At least we can hope for Blufans.

CasuallyDressed · 03-24-2016, 02:54 PM

What's the deal with Disney steelbooks now? They seem to be hit and miss with the spine titles...

Tangled - Yes
Wreck-It Ralph - Yes
Frozen - No
Big Hero 6 - Yes
Zootropolis/topia/mania/palava - Dunno

wjasoncul · 03-24-2016, 03:00 PM

Holding out hope for a Blufans release too!

:fingerscrossed:

Wow that is even worse lol.

I hope BB gets it here in the US.

Changing title names...just because??

As if Zavvi wasn't navigating enough slippery slopes with its customers.

What is the deal with Disney these days? They used to be so consistent win their releases, one of the few studios to do so. Seems like ever since they bought LFL, they felt the need to change a lot of things.

PJM · 03-24-2016, 04:45 PM

Well if anyone likes the movie enough you can get all the regional variants... Or it'll turn out to be another title less steel.

Leonidas King · 03-24-2016, 04:50 PM

Zootropolis or Zootopia either way I'm getting this!

rewak · 03-24-2016, 05:00 PM

Pass. It's a Disney UK release, something will be missing.

Well thank goodness I made someone happy.

My work here is done...

Also I think someone should be boss and get them all. Every single one of them.
