    I saw FROZEN with my grandson and daughter on Thanksgiving… It is now my all time favorite Disney movie… Anna was smart, independent and loving… Ilsa was tragic… Twist at the end was as it should be … YOU will have to see it as I am not going to spoil it here….

    EVERYONE WILL ENJOY IT WITH OR WITHOUT CHILDREN IN TOW ….

    😮 I want to see it even more now. @Nonnie how were the songs? I didn’t enjoy the songs in Tangled, and this looks very Tangled-ish.

    I saw it on Wednesday and LOVED it!  I laughed!  I cried!  I did both at the same time!

    The songs are not by Menken- they were written by the composers of Book of Mormon and Avenue Q, so they have a whole different flavor than the songs from Tangled.

    Saw it today with my 5-year-old son. We loved it! The songs screamed “Broadway!” to me … back it’s a musical within a few years. 🙂

    One note: They really turned a lot of the usual Disney-&-fairy-tale tropes on their heads. My son had a few odd moments with that. What he expected to happen, just didn’t! But he’s a bright kid and it made him think. I liked that.

    I saw it. Overall, I really enjoyed it, but I would be lying if I didn’t have some issues with it. Without getting into spoilerly details, I’d say the weakest aspect is the villain’s character arc. The way the villain is revealed came off as very flat, and not that well thought out. Plus, there was no villain song =/. Aside from that, I loved the other characters and there were some really good songs. Surprisingly, I didn’t hate the snowman character nearly as much as I was anticipating. Still, Disney spent too much of their promotion on the snowman, which alone turned me off from him.

    Also, I have made a thread for the discussion of the potential of incorporating Frozen into Once: https://oncepodcast.com/forums/topic/potential-for-frozen-characters-appearing-on-once/

    Now I wanna see it even more. I love when tropes are turned upside down.
