Is there any figure in movies more familiar than the animated critter who talks like a human? From \u201cBambi<\/a>\u201d to \u201cThe Lion King<\/a>\u201d to \u201cRatatouille<\/a>\u201d to \u201cZootopia 2<\/a>,\u201d perky anthropomorphism is at the heart of most animated films. So when I say that the central character of the new Pixar<\/a> movie, \u201cHoppers,\u201d is a mouthy beaver named Mabel<\/a> (voiced by Piper Curda<\/a>), that may sound like the cuddly quintessence of animated business as usual. You could call Mabel an eager beaver \u2014 and you could also call her righteous, testy, impassioned and wonderstruck.<\/p>\n

But here\u2019s the key thing to know about Mabel: She\u2019s not actually a beaver at all. She\u2019s a 19-old-old skate-punk college kid whose spirit gets transferred into the body of a beaver. Who is actually a robot. You heard me. That\u2019s just the first of many out-of-the-box happenings that happen in \u201cHoppers<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mabel\u2019s…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
