Sidechat

Hey, I need some animal recommendations for my Central Asia area in my zoo.

Animals that are already in the area:
  • Przewalski’s Horse
  • Saiga
  • Bactrian Camel
  • Red Panda
  • Chinese Pangolin
  • Sloth Bear
  • Himalayan Brown Bear
Central Asian Animals that I’m saving for a Highlands area:
  • Snow Leopard
  • Sichuan Takin
Any ideas?
Hmmm maybe Eurasian Lynx?
 
I’m kind of bored. Let’s start a discussion:
Remember when we were all waiting for the Eurasia pack teaser and we somehow got talking about a hypothetical Planet Zoo movie? Let’s go back to that. What would the story be? Who would play the characters? Live action or animated?

I know this is a joke, but we would get Mario movie 6, Fnaf movie 4, and Poppy Playtime movie 2 (and the first has not even come out yet) before they would even consider a planet zoo movie, anyway I feel a documentary would make a little more sense.
 
Well those other games atleast have a story. I mean what would be the plot of a PZ movie even be? Dominic myers ascention to a supervillian? :D
I got it, the old mayalen tapir will come back for revenge and try to force the guest to where winter clothes during winter 🤪.
 
Maybe they could do something like that movie Zookeeper. Anyone seen that? Just me? Okay anyway…

Besides from that movie completely inaccurately representing the Franklin Park Zoo, it was basically just a random zookeeper doing cringey things and breaking various laws including taking a gorilla to TGI Fridays. It’s really the only movie I can think of that’s set in a zoo that actually involves the zoo into the story. Any thoughts?
 
If I could choose any actors for it, then I'd go with:
  • James Earl Jones as Bernie Goodwin
  • Matt Damon as Dominic Myers
  • Joséphine Jobert as Emma Goodwin
  • Gina Bellman as Nancy Jones
  • Emma Stone as Tiffany Summers

Note: it took me a while to think of actors that could play the part, but I didn't want to use actors everybody uses today, because I actually don't enjoy films when they use the same actors over and over again. Nothing against the actors and I enjoy their work, but I just want different faces than what we usually see
Quoting this here from back in the Winter DLC thread. A pretty good lineup if I do say so myself.
 
Just ordered some planet zoo merch and some Collecta and PSNO figures.

Alright guys, I think I’ve got a bit of a storyline…

So we focus on a young Bernie Goodwin, maybe about 7, going to the Chester Zoo for the first time. Something here will happen that sparks his love of animals.

Fast forward until he’s around 22-ish, he’s on a safari in Kenya. A group of poachers take out one of the rhinos that they were looking at from their car. This is when he realizes that these animals really do need our help. He ends up moving there and doing conservation work for probably around 15 years. We introduce a couple other characters here that will come into play later, as well as his wife, who he meets there. Keep in mind that at this point the movie is maybe about 25-30 minutes long.

Something will happen which will cause Bernie to have to move back to the UK, away from the animals that he so desperately wants to help. He wants more people to gain knowledge and help our planet, but not many seem willing to. So, he starts a zoo.

(He buys land from Meyers Real Estate)

Things are going well, until we are presented with our main conflict. Dominick Meyers is a known trickster, who after waiting a decade for the zoo to grow, ends up taking it back. Now the Goodwins and some of the other people who we’ve met at this point, probably all ones from the scenarios, have to unite to take back the zoo.

The movie ends with them regaining the property, and one of them proposes making a video game based off of their message. It’s called Planet Zoo, and it is a massive hit with people all over the world.

Alright guys, what do you think? I couldn’t fall asleep last night and this all came together in my head. It’s really just a basic outline. Any thoughts?

Glyphoderma, that sure is some obscure member of an already rather obscure group of marine reptiles to make a figure of :D
Yea Glad they made it, was originally going to get deinocheirus but even on EverythingDinosaur (probably the best site to get PSNO Figures, at least in the USA) it's a bit too much, for now.
