Disney's Frozen

[Ben]

Well Frozen was made because Tangled was a hit. Frozen's direct "sequel" will be the stage show, indirectly it will more than likely lead to a special or two and more fairytale movies. I don't think *any*one is interested in seeing a "Frozen 2" displayed on a marquee!

And, yeah, I also figured that Anna would discover her hitherto unknown fire power when I first saw the film, and still think that would have been a more interesting way to go with it. The whole trolls point and lack of reasoning for Elsa to have icy snow powers continues to bother me...

.. or, perhaps a 'sequel short', like Tangled Ever After.

As I recall, everyone was screaming for a Tangled sequel as well, to "validate" the Lasseter Renaissance--
And since there wasn't really a feature-length story to tell after the wedding (c'mon, she's got short brown hair now), the five-minute short half-promoted the "real-life" wedding/princess stunt and the rest was "There, we recognized the movie's existence in the studio canon along with the 'real' films, now shaddup!"

With everything else on their plate, think anything Frozen on film would be lucky to get a TV special, and then rather heavily Olaf/Sven-sidetracked at that. Frankly, think they gave us the sequel-short FIRST, with that teaser.

I'm with Ben, let the sequel be another fairytale musical. Using the same songwriting team. That way you can have the promotion gimmick that was used in the 90s, from the song writing team of Mermaid/Beauty/Aladdin but this time obviously using Frozen. It's probably the main reason I'm so happy for Frozen's success, not becuase of the story or the characters but because it means that Lasster might be prepared to produce mroe musicals at Disney. But please don't ask for Randy Newman, stick to those writers who've had success on Broadway (ie won a Tony)

I guess I'm the only one that liked that Anna didn't suddenly manifest fire powers. I would have (figuratively) rolled my eyes if that had happened.

And give it to John Musker & Ron Clements, who not only don't guy-bash, but also know how to shoot musical numbers that don't just stand around the middle of some imaginary Broadway stage.
If anyone can finally teach the song/screenwriters how to do it, they can.

[Ben]

I just said I was expecting Anna to sprout fire power, not that I would have liked it.

[Vernadyn]

"By your powers combined!"

.. or, maybe:

[Dacey]

That is the best thing I've seen all day.

[Dan]

Pure. Awesome!

[Ben]

I just giggled out loud.

[EricJ]

Whose is that? I've GOT to repost that at the next fan-fiction.

[droosan]

Well, it was originally a 10-minute 'paste-up' I'd made in Photoshop during my lunch-break, mixing a Super Friends screen-grab with heads clipped from the DeviantArt 'toon which I'd posted a few pages back.

It was made to be used as a kooky reply to Vernadyn's Captain Planet quote .. it hadn't occured to me that it may be the sort of thing that anyone would want to re-post elsewhere.

I've just taken the time to re-draw the pic from scratch -- so that it's not a 'franken-mash' of other people's artwork.

Though, I'm not sure if I don't prefer that 'quicky-Photoshop' version ..

It's accidental genius, m'friend: (Although, yes, it's better if used in combination with the Captain Planet joke.)
If you've heard half of the "Anna's fire powers!" attempts for fans to overdo their identification/fan-worship of the story, think up their own sequels, and turn the simple Disney-ized fairy tale into elaborate comic-book fantasy epics, it perfectly satirizes how off the subject most of the fan ravings are...Ol' truthful mirror hurts.

Good stuff here...
