Frozen thread

[Marlin]

Nope. Haven't seen it yet... but we'll get it out when it comes out on DVD. We were pleasantly surprised by Tangled and have heard good things about Frozen so it's on the list.

That and the kids of course want to see it!  (such evil parents denying cinema events to the kids!! But like some others mentioned here - going to the movies is sooooo expensive  )

...and this morning I was reading about how it fetishizes a very racially-oppressed group (Saami), so I'm even less interested now.

I don't see how the film fetishizes sami culture, the only sami person in it is so whitewashed that he's barely regocnizeable as a poc, for fox sake. Incredibly saddening and offensive!

I rented it last night, so now I'm off the Has-Not-Seen-Frozen-List, lol.  It was really good.

I have no watch "Frozen" ! The trailers did not grab my attention!

Do you want to build a Snowman?

I don't usually buy more than one edition of a Movie unless a better one is released years later or something, but with the complicated 3D situation I ended up preordering the 3D edition from the UK. However, Yesterday the movie was released on Blu-Ray in the US and I couldn't wait so I bought the Target exclusive edition on release morning, lol. I'm actually glad I did as the Target bonus disc is already impossible to find in stores anymore and really the only thing I will have an actual duplicate of between the 2 editions is the 2D Blu-Ray disc, all other content is unique to their respective sets.

I wasn't planning on buying it, but I wanted to see it. So when my daughter pointed out in the store, I choose to get it. We have watched it twice. I don't buy doubles in anything though.

[NovelNerd]

I haven't seen this movie yet, but I'll also second when it comes to videos and such I don't buy doubles. Takes up more space than I want to deal with.  We do have a few doubles of movies we both owned before we got together years and years ago and couldn't decide which one to sell, so they both just sit there. Otherwise one copy of movies is enough.

I figure we will probably rent Frozen and not buy it. I don't tend to buy newer cartoons just older ones. I do want the Jungle Book though.

[kissthethunder]

No, no multiple copies for me, just going to go and buy the movie for kiddo as soon as we can afford it I don't really care much to have exclusive content personally outside of mlp related things. Sounds cool though!

Watched it today with my son and he was dancing around the living room singing Let It Go lol

[StoryDreamer]

Any good behind the scenes material? I don't care for the just showing people singing videos..

Also, the soundtrack is going to be on vinyl! It's a gorgeous set for.... 75.00

I just saw this on Fox news and had to share

http://www.myfoxboston.com/story/25043560/reading-firefighters-sing-to-keep-trapped-children-calm

The little girl, her mom and baby brother were stuck in an elevator. She was too afraid to climb up the ladder when the firefighters were trying to rescue them so they started singing Let it Go to her and it calmed her down enough to climb up

That is an amazing story! 

[Haruna]

What a sweet story!

I read several tumblr bloggers who are Sami championing the movie, but in tumblr-land, everything is problematic so of course there will be people saying that is racist as well - despite those people not being Sami. Curious, how is he fetishized?

I love the film. I think it's one of the best they've done. I did love Wreck It Ralph hardcore though. Cars 3 is coming and I'd rather watch Frozen on a loop for 8 days straight than see that movie.
