Disney's 'Frozen' — Page 15

Well, that's unfortunate. Guess they needed a "name" for the single? I remember watching Enchanted and wondering why they didn't have Idina sing the big song. Can't remember who did sing it, or even the song, but thought it was strange to have this fantastic singer in the movie and not have her sing the "theme" song.

They didn't have Idina sing at all in Enchanted. I remember quite a few posters here were perplexed and upset about that.

Idina sang the main song "Let it Go" in the movie. Here's the entire sequence with Idina (Elsa): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moSFlvxnbgk

I think it will be Menzel for two reasons- Her version is the showstopper in the movie & her version is outselling the other on itunes.

Would Menzel be able to perform at the Oscars on March 2 if IF/THEN begins Broadway previews on March 5?

Why wouldn't she? Unless she's planning to travel by horse.

She'll be fine :)

I totally agree about Let It Go and Defying Gravity. In fact, I am shocked that so few mentions of the Wicked connection have been made here. The film overall felt like Wicked on Ice, especially hearing Idina's voice saying the Elsa lines to the Anna/Galinda. The relationships, the misunderstandings, so many other plot points. And it made me love the film that much more.

Why would Idina not sing it? I don't recall the pop singers performing at the Oscars for past Disney nominated songs, although I recall the Enchanted songs being sung by several people not in the film.

i saw it tonight, and liked it a lot. Felt like the songs were kind of "eh." The rhymes were all really obvious, and the melodies weren't that strong. But I liked the story and found it interesting. I don't fit like Idina's voice really fit her character.

And I doubt they'd need Idina there for tech/rehearsal. They could just use her u/s.

Frozen's "Love is an Open Door" has parts that sound just like "Secondary Characters" from Title of the Show. Especially starting at the 1:00 marks for both songs...take a listen.

An attraction at EPCOT's Norway Pavilion might be happening around 2014/2015.


FROZEN-Themed Attraction Heading to EPCOT's Norway Pavillion?

I do hope Idina does get to sing at the Oscars, assuming "Let It Go" and other songs are nominated, because I like it when Disney is able to get the actors to sing in their movies to preform at the Oscars (just my personal preference).

I totally agree. Elsa is basically Disney's version of Elphaba. Here are just some of the similarities:

-Both of their names start with an 'EL' and ends with an "A". (Elsa / Elphaba)
-Both are socially isolated and repressive teenagers
-Both are terrified of hurting the ones they love.
-Both are misunderstood older sisters.
-Both are looked at as villains (evil witches) in the beginning because of their uncontrollable powers and because of the manipulation of others.
-Both runaway and hide in a castle.
-Both of their stories are eventually a celebration of empowerment
-Let it Go and Defying Gravity are their turning point songs that are very similar.
-Both characters say similar things

Elsa: "Yes, I'm alone, but I'm alone and free."
Elphaba: "And if I'm flying solo, at least I'm flying free!"

Elsa: It's time to see what I can do. To test the limits and break through
Elphaba: I'm through accepting limits 'cause someone else says they're so...It's time to try Defying gravity

Elsa: No right, no wrong, no rules for me, I'm free!
Elphaba: I'm through with playing by the rules of someone else's game. It's time to trust my instincts, close my eyes and leap!

Elsa: Here I stand and here I'll stay
Elphaba: I'm defying gravity and you can't pull me down

-And of course...Both characters were performed by Idina Menzel
