I just saw it today and to sum up my opinion on this movie without spoilers is one word. AWESOME!! !! ! Anna is an awesome heroine and Elsa's story is so sad. Kristoff and Olaf are pretty cool as well. I also love how the fact that even though Elsa is causing this mess she isn't actually evil just misguided. The message about love coming from anyone is unexpected and awesome. I want to see it again and again, heck even as I type this I'm listening to Let It Go. If you like Disney and haven't seen this then go, go now and see it, worth the price of admission.

I saw it I hope this indicates a possibility that Disney animation will look back and return to the 90s renaissance quality that we have not seen after it ended with their new era that began with 2000's Dinosaur. Frozen showed that they can transfer to 3-D while keeping the magical feel of the 90s. The songs are addicting.

I just watched this with my daughters and I just had to come here and see if anyone else related to Elsa the way I did. Her inability to control her magic reminded me so much of what it is like to have a meltdown, do things I don't intend to, and be left feeling guilty and as though I'm a danger to others. Like her, when I'm alone my gifts can emerge, but when I'm under pressure and overstimulated I become a destructive force, though I don't want to be. It made me teary-eyed when she sang "Let it go". Anyone else?

I have not seen the movie, though I thought everyone would like to know what I've just read this morning - - that Mormons and Christian evangelicals are claiming that the movie Frozen is... (gasp!)... gay propaganda!
I swear, I'm not making this up! They say that the lead character's rejection by the rest of society for her use of magic is a metaphor for homosexuality. That, and the fact that while said lead character's sister's are boy crazy, they say it's telling that she is not.
Beware of the gay agenda! BEEEEEWARE!
Seriously, there's got to be something wrong with people more obsessed with gay sex than even gays are. :P

Yes. I saw it and I just bought the DVD today. It is the second best movie of 2013 (the first best being Monsters University) and the second best Disney movie of the 2010s (the first being Wreck-It Ralph). I can't wait to watch it over and over again, along with the Get a Horse Mickey Mouse short. The cold never bothered me anyway.

I seriously want to see this one. I've held off on listening to "Let It Go" until I see the movie, just so it'll be one of those "first-time EPICNESS" experiences. If it's as good as Wreck-It Ralph was..... 8)

I just saw it and it was absolutely amazing. Beautifully animated with great songs, especially Let It Go. I didn't understand why people were making such a big deal of it. . . until now.

I love Frozen! Highly recommended by me! Disney just keeps hitting us with great animated films.

I saw it a while ago and it was better than I expected. I love the twist near the end, the ways we were mislead, and how I can relate to at least one of the characters (Guess who?).

I liked Let It Go but that was about it. The pacing felt at times random and sometimes dragged on, especially with certain songs, and I can't remember most of it even though I watched it a couple days ago. The entire ending was also really predictable and combined multiple cliches, but I liked Elsa.
They made a billion dollars though so...

Yes.

Interestingly enough, right before I rented the film, I was thinking to myself "I'm tired of always being 'the good girl'." I think I've done quite a bit of growing up recently, but I still need to do more--"see what I can do." (And no, I don't mean by hurting others :) --just by exploring talents that I may have ignored until recently, for various reasons.)

Listened to "Let It Go" about half a dozen times tonight--I think it is becoming my next "anthem."

I related to Elsa so much! Her struggle to keep her powers hidden reminds me of my own struggle every day to pretend that I'm 'normal.'
"Don't let them in, don't let them see, be the good girl you always have to be....conceal, don't feel...don't let them know...."
It's like my own theme song, since I haven't really told many people about my AS besides my family.
It seems that sometimes the only time I'm truly "free" is when I'm in my own castle of my room.

I haven't. I haven't watched any new Disney Movies for years except for Toy Story 3. Everyone seems to either love Frozen or utterly hate it, and of course they hate anyone who does likes it, so I won't know unless I see it myself if it's any good. I heard it negatively stereotypes men as all being sexist pigs or something, but on the other hand the female characters aren't the typical damsels in distress who always need to be rescued by the hero. And then there was that "honest trailer" I saw on YouTube. I read on Wiki that Walt Disney was planning to make a movie like this a long time ago, which is cool. But it's based on the story of The Snow Queen and they probably didn't give it that title because boys won't want to watch it, which is the same reason Repunzel was renamed "Tangled". Wow boys are more homophobic than ever, imagine if Disney came out with Snow White or Cinderella in this day, they'd probably rename them "Apple" and "Midnight" or some other vague unisex nonsense. :roll:
