to have important questions regarding Frozen?

My main one being - how do they know it is an eternal winter when it seems to have lasted about five minutes?

Also (sorry, very inappropiate) - if Elsa ever gets a boyfriend/girlfriend, and she gets excited, will she turn them into ice?

How does she know how to build the castle if she has spent all that time trying not to use her powers?

What is she planning to eat in her castle?

What i want to know is why is kistoff brought up by the trolls? Where is his family? He says that he works with ice and wears the ice men clothes so is going back to people but he says the trolls are is family

I thought he said he was an orphan? Although why all those huge men thought it was a good idea for a little kid and a reindeer calf to tag along with them on their macho ice-cutting expedition is another matter for child protection... :o

I too wondered what on earth Elsa was eating in the castle. DD wanted to know where she went to the toilet

Lambzig · 10/04/2014 18:44

Only 12 times since the DVD came out? You haven't lived. DD is obsessed and I wake up singing Let it Go.

I too wish she liked Anna better rather than Elsa "because she is magical"

underachievingmum · 10/04/2014 18:45

DS1 who is 3 has been insisting he is Elsa all day. To the point where he refused to go for a wee as Elsa obviously never did because there are no toilets in the ice palace Hmm

I'd like to know how Olaf puts himself back together when the giant evil snowman throws him and his bottom half runs away.

I do like it when Anna punches the little shit from weasel town though.

MooseBeTimeForSpring · 10/04/2014 19:16

If Elsa is older than Anna and is just "coming of age" when she becomes Queen, then Disney are promoting under age relationships.

Or is it just me that's had that thought?

Pompoko · 10/04/2014 19:35

Elsa is 21 and Anna is 18

moominmarvellous · 10/04/2014 19:49

DH heard on the radio that Bible Belt America is touting Frozen as homosexual propaganda, and that the underlying message to Elsa 'letting go' is that she's coming out of the closet after years of trying to hide it.

Although it's absolute rubbish, I can't get the comparison out of my mind now! Watched it again the other day when she strikes Anna and thought 'she just made her a bit gay' :D

MrsBryan · 10/04/2014 20:02

surely its Ana not Anna?

Applefallingfromthetree2 · 10/04/2014 20:04

If you have important questions about this movie, ask the kids, they seem to have the answers.

mrstigs · 10/04/2014 20:19

And she makes ice skates at the end, they arnt made of snow.
I like that Elsa is a queen by her birthright rather than just married in, and isn't instantly paired up. Makes a change from the usual guff.

MorningTimes · 10/04/2014 20:21

I thought her name was "Amah" all the way through the film. My hearing is normally okay, I think! I was very surprised to find out she is called Anna, it didn't sound like it at all

FunLovinBunster · 10/04/2014 20:32

It's a great film
I'm sick of let it go song. Every bloody day. Sometimes I am forced to join in. Sometimes if DD is in a good mood I'm allowed a solo spot. Cue torch light on my face. Grrrr.

TattyDevine · 10/04/2014 21:17

I am personally querying the 8 thousand salad plates Confused though I do understand the need to stuff chocolate in her face.

GwendolineMaryLacey · 10/04/2014 21:22

I've not really seen it despite it being played on a loop since dd1 got it on Friday. However, the little girl knocking on her sister's door and being told to go away breaks my heart and I bloody hate disney films.

springandbunnies · 10/04/2014 21:42

Is great
Luv elsa best
My dd age 5 is obsessed she has seen it 12 times non stop

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 10/04/2014 21:48

Someone told me that this is the first Disney movie to pass the Bechdel test - anyone know if that's true?

Doesn't she need to stuff chocolate in her face because a man talked to her? That's a bit odd.

Should we have a spoiler warning on this thread?

Marking place not because I love it more than ds

KissesBreakingWave · 10/04/2014 22:03

No, there's plenty of others that pass the Bechdel. Sleeping Beauty and Little Mermaid both do, Snow White sorta, the original 101 dalmatians (if memory serves).

BadgersNadgers · 10/04/2014 22:06

Ice cream
Arctic roll
Sorbet
Frozen yoghurt
Slush puppies.

Anotheronebitthedust · 10/04/2014 22:06

No, can't be hearts. surely sleeping beauty would? three fairies spoke to each other and aurora a lot. okay, mainly about dresses but still

oh, and cinderella. Speaks to her stepmother, sisters, (female? mice) and fairy godmother.

princess and the frog had two female characters too. and brave, with the relationship between merida (?) and her mother.

Anotheronebitthedust · 10/04/2014 22:11

Although I read a funny review about how Frozen passes the test due to "two central female characters, Anna and Elsa, discussing the isolationist policies of Arendelle, plans to build a snowman, and the time Elsa locked their civilization in an eternal winter.”

It's no Thelma and Louise, but hey!

SicknSpan · 10/04/2014 22:12

I am 33 weeks pg with dc3 and my two sons aged 9 and 5 adore this film. The soundtrack especially. And i cry hard every time I hear let it go so I'd thank you not to remind me about it so often, ta.

Think that Elsa looks like a v glam country music star when she changes her dress with magic and does her hair all loose then walks out of the huge ice palace doors
