“Every day, I come by your house and I pick you up.

[DavidCroquet]

So I saw Frozen for the first time the other day. 

I'm kind of amazed that this is the movie that blew up the way it did. It seems...I dunno...thin? Like, if it were live action, I would suspect that it had a really limited budget or something? 

Elsa's parents just shutting her up in her room for like a decade seems...really weird? 

Elsa's whole "let it go" setpiece has her build a giant empty castle that doesn't even have any furniture. She doesn't make a friend (except later, a giant evil snow monster) but she's acting like she's finally liberated and happy.

Also the one guy turning out to be evil was sort of strange...if he hadn't heroically defeated the ice giant and spared elsa--why not let her get blasted with the crossbow right there, if his plan was to take over the kingdom?--it would've seemed better.

Also I think the lord of Weaseltown was unfairly maligned. Yes, he sent his hitters to kill Elsa, but also she was unequivocally causing massive damage to the entire region and, in the specific moment, trying to kill them with ice spikes and shit. Seems like a reasonable course of action IMO.

I think this might be the longest post I've written about a movie on here?
