It makes you fearful to watch some videos... Who knows what you will get afterwards? When my friends watch videos on my account the suggestion page has a meltdown!

Making Peter Pan evil? It sounds like it completely loses any grounding from the original tales (that’s not to say Disney hasn’t done so from the actual originals…). I guess that’s one of the points of the series, but I don’t buy it. And I don’t buy live-action Anna and Elsa. Their essence is lost by that point. Yes, the changes that are made relate to the animation, the medium through which the story is told and affects the way you perceive the whole story.

Yeah, I know the back-story to the creation of Frozen. The Snow Queen was the inspiration and there are some nice parallels between it and the film. But you’re right, once Elsa was no longer the villain the story completely changed its trajectory and took on a whole other meaning. I don’t think it’s a novel, just one of Hans Christian Andersen’s longest fairy tales. I’m sure you could find a nice copy, normally in a volume with his other stories.

Of course, thank you :-)
