"a full-fledged showtune score and little of the ironic humor that has become the lingua franca of most contemporary toons"...

I've heard nothing but all out raves for this so far. Can't wait to see it!

"...little of the ironic humor that has become the lingua franca of most contemporary toons"

Okay, that alone is making me optimistic! The trailer made it sound like it was chock full of that kind of dialogue.

I really hope this nets Robert Lopez an Oscar so he can reach EGOT status

Can't wait to see this

Someone should tell Bobby Lopez about these reviews.

I admit I'm increasingly excited to see this. However, this little bit from the HollywoodReporter does annoying me:

"The most consistently annoying aspect of Frozen is the screenwriter's insistence upon putting banal and commonplace teen Americanisms in the mouth of Anna in a clear sop to that major component of the film's intended audience. Anna's dialogue is full of “you know” and “freaked out” and many other phrases her parents and sister never use; where did she pick them up?"

Great reviews for the Mickey Mouse short that accompanies it, too.

Variety Is far from an all out rave but I still can't wait to see this.

Wasn't referring to Variety. Was referring to stuff I had read prior to opening this thread.

And I hope it's all true. It's been way too long since the last great animated movie musical.

I am so excited for Frozen to come out and from these early reviews so far, we are in for something really special here. There was one review that recalled his expirence of seeing Beauty and the Beast for the first time that "no one would blink if Frozen was announced as the next movie, it's THAT good".

November 27th is coming sooner than we think. I will undoubtly see this on opening weekend.

After reading Variety's review, I think I'm more interested in seeing the animated short "Get a Horse!" that plays before the feature.

It sounds fascinating.
