I hope that she would ;-) I'll be honest, the trailers aren't too good at creating a true portrayal of the film, although they do slightly more so than the synopsis. The bit that really grates on me is when Anna says, "It is not nice to throw people". And then in the trailer they crow-bar in the word "snow"... What was the point? I think all films do that thing where the trailers mix and match parts of the film. I can't accept it once you've seen the actual thing. As a side note, in a local store (I don't know if you've heard of or have a shop called "Boots" where you live?) they have some Frozen DVD's, but they have a shiny sleeve on them with just Elsa on the front - I think that I'v previously mentioned it. Out of curiosity, I lifted it back and the DVD underneath was the same as the normal one. I do wonder why they only included special features on just the Blu-ray version... I'm not exactly sure what "dual layering" is on a DVD, but when it transitioned from one layer to the next my DVD when kind of all messed up. It sorted itself out, but boy was it tense. It's literally in-between Olaf saying "I don't have a skull..." then there's a noticeable pause, and then he says "or bones". I guess that they put it there because there is a slight pause anyway. I'm not sure if I'll benefit from a new DVD... I just wondered if yours did the same. 



Demi Lovato's version is by no means close to the original; that's how I see it with all other versions. It's still good nonetheless, and is brilliant at offering a 'jazzed up' version to accompany the film's credits and to just recall Let It Go. I love just sitting there listening to the songs play over the credits. 



Hans was certainly interesting. I agree with what you said; who could see it coming? I did see a video where a kid watched the whole thing and posted the video of it on Youtube; he had the movie in one of the bottom corners of the screen. I didn't watch the whole thing, but he said that he could see through Hans' facade, and he said that he had not seen the movie up until then. I'm not convinced. It was funny when he watched Let It Go and then said about he could see why whenever he typed the letter "L" somewhere it would pop up. That suggests to me that he new something... I like what you said about those kids in the theatre. That's my other regret: not seeing the film in the cinema. I still love watching it at home, but it'd be fun to watch other people react to it. If they ever re-release it you can rest assured that I'll be the first to buy a ticket :-) 



To be honest, I have very mixed feelings about a full feature length. I personally just want to see more interaction, but that interaction has to have meaning, and not just be there for the sake of it. The risks aren't as great with a short though, like you've said. Enchanted popsicles sounds good :-) Maybe there were some mountain men out her way that didn't ask questions, allowing her easy access to materials. Suppose it's not the most pressing issue of the film, but if I was Anna I would have been like, "You can't stay here. What are you going to eat?" And then Elsa would be all like, "I can make magic ice swirlies. You think I haven't thought of that?" :D The whole idea of focusing on what is doesn't stop me from thinking what if... Seriously, I know it was for a dramatic effect to the film, but Hans did come pretty close to being the most hated character in a film ever. I hate 'what if's'. I'll stop thinking that way from now on.

It is crazy to think that we spend 1/3 of our lives sleeping. Ah biology... I'm sat here right now trying to message you but I have this awful pain in my stomach. I don't feel so great.

Although if you've got Windows 7 you might as well stick with that; there's nothing wrong with it.

He hasn't even seen it, although he did say he's practically seen in the form of snippets online. I'm not sure how true that is... He's insightful, but I think even if he did have time for this masterpiece he would probably wonder what I was going on about if I said to him "Frozen Wiki" :D <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">

The final script fits on to fewer pages than I would have thought.

I'll try and do that on Thursday. I 'agreed' to a 9-hour shift tomorrow and Friday. I guess I'm getting paid for it. I agree with what you said about people who study art and drama though. I mean where are they going with that? This isn't Renaissance Italy.

I just suggested Sven because it seems like a good place to start. Plus I wanted to make sure that you didn't race through them and leave nothing for me ;-) Thanks for clearing up the tenses; I will re-read the MoS just so that I'm completely clear on what I'm doing. <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">

Things like the range of movements that they have and the facial expressions they make aren't easily matched - if at all. And then there's a lack of resemblance, especially to a film such as this. I'll at least treat it as an alternate interpretation.

I love the part of the song where you took the picture from - the way Elsa's trying to convince Anna. But the problem I find is there's not one of her here where she isn't making a face, if you know what I mean. In the picture that you suggested her mouth is slightly open, and her eyebrows are raised in a way that she wouldn't do just stood there naturally. Out of the three, I would say the one on the staircase is best. The full-body one could be cropped a bit more, so long as the quality is retained. Let me look further in to it; I did those two on my laptop on Paint. I'll have a look tomorrow at Photoshop on my PC.
