Disney's Frozen - Grading and Discussion

Awesome I double dipped and got the full Bluray version not long ago. Still hasn't beat Brave in that respect (got the DVD/BR/iTunes although the DVD was a birthday present).

 

I found an amazing interview with director/screenwriter Jennifer Lee about the making of Frozen! Every fan should give it a listen/read.

So...Elsa's gonna be on Once Upon A Time:

Okay...Am I the only one who thinks this is kinda like Disney spiking the ball? It's like someone in Corporate HQ said, "Okay, not only do we have the number one animated film in history, not only do we have a character so popular soccer moms are fighting police actions over her dolls, let's put that character on the hit TV fairly tale show...on the network we own! "

Me, I love Elsa to death, but I've never seen more than one or two eps of OUAT all the way through, and I don't think even her presence is gonna make me watch it regularly in the fall.

But, I could be wrong...

 

I don't watch OUAT at all, but I will this next season solely because of adding Elsa.

 

It might get some OUAT fans to go see the movie as well.

I so wished I like OUAT better, I love the idea but find the show too soapy for my tastes.

 

While they will call her Elsa and allude to Frozen, I think if they are looking for an antagonist that she will be more like the Snow Queen in the original H.C. Anderson tale.

 

I'd never heard of the show until that clip, might watch any episodes shes in just to see what its like.

 

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to post that OUAT clip of Elsa.

 

This is most likely. They introduced the Wicked Witch of the West this way last season and i think she was a villain...


oops...okay, missed this interview:

I wonder if the OUAT showrunners themselves are fans of Elsa and want her there, or if this is just a mandate to have her on the show from the higher up Disney executives? When the new season starts, Frozen will have been out for almost a year so this doesn't seem like much of a cross promotion, but the movie is not old enough to be grouped with the more classic Disney films. Not new enough, but also not old enough to be a classic. Frozen finds itself in a funny situation as a film.

I heard the OUAT writers really wasted Rapunzel, they didn't give her much to do, so fans shouldn't get their hopes too high for Elsa.

 

I don't watch the show but was looking through a list, no Merida yet? It looks like they have had mostly everyone else and now one from Frozen.

 

From the show runners:

Once Upon a Time Creators Talk Regina's Blast from the Past, Confirm Season 4′s Frozen Twist

 

Well, Repunzel was just a one off guest role (so far at least), but Elsa is apparently being set up as a fairly major part of next season.

 

Frozen has now grossed $1.219 billion worldwide, overtaking Iron Man 3 to become the fifth highest grossing film of all time and the highest grossing film released in 2013.

 

There's just no stopping the juggernaut, is there?

 

‘Frozen’ book series following Anna and Elsa after the movie debuting in 2015

 

I'd like to think I'm above this... but I'll probably check the first one out...

 

I'll probably be grabbing all of them.

 

I'm surprised nobody's posted this here yet. The OUATus are making us Frozen fans look like we're slacking off.

Also, a bunch of photos of live-action versions of Elsa and Anna and company have been released. It behooves us to be more diligent with all this fan business.

My wife and I have started watching OUAT from the beginning to catch up so we can watch it when Elsa and Anna are on the show. I have to be honest, I'm not really digging the show so far, hope it gets better.
