June 12[edit]

Source of Zootopia image[edit]

About this Zootopia image hosted on Fandom.

https://zootopia.fandom.com/wiki/File:Hopps_Family.png

It's the family of Judy Hopps.

My question is:

Can you tell me where does that image come from? Where's the official source, if any?

A few notes:

  • I could be mistaken, but apparently that scene does not appear in the movie Zootopia itself.
  • Apparently, the Fandom page does not tell us what's the source of that image.

Thanks in advance. --Daniel Carrero (talk) 02:28, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That image appears in the book The Art of Zootopia and is credited to Cory Loftis who worked on the film as a visual development artist for Walt Disney Animation Studios, so it seems to be official insomuch as it was produced by the actual crew of the film. The picture looks like a family photograph, so it's possible it appeared in the film as a small prop framed photo, and is not very visible—if not, it could be concept art. --Canley (talk) 06:41, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

John Larroquette playing saxophone and clarinet[edit]

Does anyone know the source for this information?

A user called Jlarroquette made five edits to the article John Larroquette on June 20, 2010. They haven't made any other edits before or since. Whether that really was him, we don't know. There's not much out there mentioning this except for copies of Wikipedia, but I did find an article in the Toronto Star. Rojomoke (talk) 16:35, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple websites claim he was in a band named "The Nodules", which may be useful for finding a reliable resource - or it may be a mass spread of false information. 68.115.219.130 (talk) 18:15, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The Toronto Star is a reliable source, so (other than the band name) it's kosher. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:43, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, it sounded like you meant he played both at the same time, like Rahsaan Roland Kirk. 67.164.113.165 (talk) 10:11, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
