I figured it was only a matter of time before someone did something like that to an innocent tale like Frozen. I haven't seen what you speak of and I don't plan to. It's not that I think it would warp my perception of the film but there's still the fear that it will. It bothers me as well that someone would try to make a weird fantasy like that <.<.

I don't put much store into IMDb's ratings. But I'd say what constitutes a good score would be maybe an 8.0 or higher based on The Lion King's score of 8.5. Honestly, I think Frozen's score is a bit low but I'm not going to dwell much on it. I don't know if you've noticed this trend either, but I've found people who initially liked the film immensely (and even memorized scenes and lyrics) just suddenly decry the film as "overrated" once it hit the top-grossing list; I've even seen Frozen's IMDb rating go from 8.4 on initial release plummeting down to 7.8. I think there's a lot of psychology involved and people just appear to dislike the prospect of openly admiring something that is embraced by a large populace. For that reason, I don't put much stock into ratings. I judge based on impact I observe and I can safely say a movie that has people humming its songs while walking down the street definitely has significance.

I found CinemaSins to be funny and I figured it was a matter of time before he tackled Frozen. But to this date, I sill have not watched the video. I've watched his first ones and though they made me laugh, I disliked that he never really gave actual criticism; I get he acknowledges this but I can't bring myself to watch him decry something in a manner that is completely unconstructive.

There's really nothing we can do about people exploiting the film either through the superficiality of character appearance or just poking a minor technical details...all we can do is "let it go" and like you said, not associate ourselves with them. In the end, we need to find the true admirers of the film and "rejoice and love" it for what it is :)
