‘Zootopia 2’ Just Set A Rotten Tomatoes Audience Score Record


Zootopia 2 is currently crushing at the box office with an $81 million debut in the middle of this holiday week. But it’s also killing it in an entire separate category, audience acclaim. Zootopia 2’s critic scores are very solid, a 92% Rotten Tomatoes, which is great for Disney/Pixar movies, but there are many higher, given the quality of releases in this genre, from this studio.

However, Zootopia 2, with its 96% Rotten Tomatoes audience score, has just set a record and almost landed a second. As it stands, Zootopia 2 has the highest audience score for a sequel…ever, from either Disney Animation or Pixar Studios (it’s Disney Animation). Past that, it’s the second-highest ever, behind only Raya and the Last Dragon’s 97%. In third place is Onward with a 95%, and the likes of Inside Out 2 and Toy Story 4 have 94% each.

It’s a stunning achievement, and while it’s possible it goes down in time, as it stands, this is where it is. I’ve listed the Rotten Tomatoes audience scores of the last decade of Disney and Pixar movies so you can get a sense of what it’s beaten.

I can see you potentially saying, “Well, what about the true classics that were released earlier? I went further back to gather the data on those and yes, it still beats any of the ones you can think of. Though the further we go back, the less Rotten Tomatoes scores were even really a thing 20-30 years ago. But in any case, for reference:
