Hmmm yeah I might stay away from Mayim Bialik's words so that my temper doesn't flare up. But it is nice to hear people were defending Frozen :). I've heard of Honest Trailers and yeah, it might as well be a branch of Cinema Sins xD.

And very interesting (and accurate) graphs. It makes sense the animators would want to make the characters seem as appealing as possible; I mean, in a film there's a limited time frame in which we get to connect with the characters and the best way to establish that initial connection is through superficiality. It almost sounds bad, but I find it acceptable especially if in the end, the characters are more than just pretty faces :). And then on the flip side, you can give a character an appealing face to magnify the effects felt when their true dark nature is revealed, as with Hans xD. 

I don't know how anyone could say Disney made Frozen like their typical "Princess meets Prince" stories...I mean, just the scene with Anna's sacrifice is enough to tell you that the movie isn't just about romantic love. And anyways, after years of isolation, Anna's impossibly idealistic desire for love is perfectly sensible to me.

The issue of New Scientist sounds promising; I'd love to hear about it when you get the chance to read it. It's nice having all these intellectually-stimulating discussions with you :D
