Disney's 'Frozen' — Page 16

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

Over the past few months, the film has had very strong legs. Disney has a lot to be proud of.

broadwayfever: fun video; I'm still waiting for a video that does the type of mashup where they do parts from each song, but the video with clips from Frozen with Defying Gravity playing is fun too.

I'm glad that Frozen is still in the money. It deserves it's success after Disney's been so down in the 2000's.

I just saw this yesterday for the first time. It was wonderful. I loved that it was a movie about princesses, but they were strong characters. Well, for Disney anyway. I guess my point is that falling in love with a prince or being rescued by one was not the main plot or point of the story. Not, putting those movies down at all because I love them. I thought it was visually stunning too. I did not see it in 3D and thought it was enough. I actually think for me, the 3D effects would have been too much.

Really looking forward to Idina'a performance tonight. It should look as visually stunning as it sounds.....

THIS Frozen Medley is pretty darn impressive. anyone know who the singers are? The 'Elsa' is better than the original! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPkB7QH88Yk

I am familiar with Sabrina, she is a former Eponine in the London production of "Les Miserables" and I have liked what I have heard of her before. From that video, I'd think, both her and the other girl are potentials for those roles in the musical production, depending on when it happens.

Sabrina and gina beck would be the ideal pairing

I have to say, as much as I enjoyed the film its huge success surprises me.

Looks like MTI could be working on Frozen JR. right now.

"Frozen is the highest-grossing animated movie of all time! This means great things for the Broadway show already in the works...and perhaps for a FROZEN JR!"
