Frozen - new Disney film (1 Viewer)

This is currently in every-night after dinner status at my house. I've not watched closely, but sadly must admit I have the music stuck in my head.

I definitely sense the gay coming out theme with Elsa and the Let it Go scene. I've not read the article linked above or any others on this and really don't care, but can say I would not be surprised if gay teens and pre-teens identified with her story. The obvious Christian themes common in most kid's template movies - sacrifice, forgiveness, redemption - are more prominent as would be expected.
I think anyone who has anything they are hiding from others could identify with Elsa.

I mean, just this morning I wanted cookies for breakfast, but thought, "what would the kids think?" So I belted out "let it goooo" and ate cookies for breakfast. Thanks, Elsa!

My son has adapted the lyrics of Let it Go to make a song about farting, including "the stench never bothered me anyway ..."

 
I listen to Let it Go 3 times in the morning on the way to daycare and 3 times on the way home...its definitely old to me, but far from nails on chalkboard stuff.

 
Never seen it but somehow my son is obsessed with it. He pulled the head off his toy golf club and started hitting the floor with it telling me he is cutting ice? WTF.

 
The consecutive day streak of watching this is at six. Do I have to worry about this turning my six year old son gay? He belts out his falsetto version of the song like Barbara Streisand.

 
It seems to me that this problem would be alleviated a bit if they just made them the princesses you take pictures with during the character dining for Norway.

I know its not a perfect solution but waiting in line for 3 hours is absurd
I can't imagine going to Disney world right now - when we went Tangled was the movie du jour and we waited a couple of hours to see Rapunzel and Flynn - my 8 yo told me the other day that Frozen is "the best movie ever, and whoever made it is going to make a lot of money."
I'm sure Disney will do something to make the characters more prevelant. Maybe a ride eventually. Definitely meet and greet availability in Fantasyland is coming soon. That would relieve a lot of the build up in Norway.
I've read they are moving them to the Princess Meet & Greet at MK anyway. I don't think they will be at Epcot for too much longer.

Better than my 3 year old pulling out her toy doctor kit, checking my 5 year old and saying, "You're sick with BLOOD. You're going to be dead!"

That was my next question......do I need to have an intervention for my son or is it OK for boys to watch too?

 
Without the music, the movie would be average at best. My daughter loves it the movie and it makes her happy. So, the movie is ok in my book.

That music is always playing somewhere in the house and then in my head all day.
New to Disney?
Not really but thanks for asking.

The Disney model is to have great songs in their movies. However, this movie turned into a blockbuster with a weak story. The music is good and seems to have taken on a life of its own. As other posters have pointed out, adults, kids, and babies are using "Let it go" as part of their daily speak.

Little mermaid, aladdin, beauty and the beast are some of Disney's modern classics and they ALL have weak stories. Its all about the music and the merchandise.

I remember thinking it was weird seeing little boys in the theatre, but I have only girls so I'm not a good judge.

Maybe it's time to ramp down your expectations for plots in children movies

 
I like the movie. Elsa is powerful and Anna has got some spunk. Love it when she snaps the tree into marshmallow monster or punches out Hanz. To me those are better role models for my little girl than the typical Disney princess who gets rescued by a prince or a kiss. Olaf is a riot, the songs are terrific. Even my 15 y.o. boy thinks it's a good movie.

Works for us.

Mine have made several bathroom jokes about it being about something having to pee.

They changed it to "let me go"

I have no expectations. I was merely pointing out that it's a little silly to criticize Frozen for it's "weak story" when pretty much every Disney movie from the past has had a basic story.

Let it Go.

 
My daughter got the dvd Monday and is all pumped up. She saw it in theaters .. going to watch it tomorrow with her

 
We did the Frozen meet and greet at Disneyland this week. We got to park 30 minutes early and it was still 75 minute wait after opening. I guess the sliver lining is that it was ONLY 105minutes instead of 3 hours. Sigh. I hope they remember this #### someday

I keep seeing this story.

It is definitely Rapunzel and Eugene in a cameo.

It is also, 100%, NOT the same ship Ariel finds. The ship looks completely different in shape, has a different number of masts, etc etc. The only thing they have in common is that they're wooden ships that crashed.

:goodposting: I much prefer this girl empowerment message to some of the old messaging. Olaf is great. Can't believe that fat dude from Love and Other Drugs can sign like that. "In SUMMMMMMMMMMMMEEEERRRRRRRRR"

Frozen might just be the most talked-about kids movie since Toy Story, but it’s not all accolades and awards for the Oscar-winning animated flick. There is a fear campaign mounting against the film, warning conservative parents and grandparents to keep their impressionable young children away from what some believe is a musical advertisement for the gay agenda.

It seems to have started with Kathryn Skaggs who, according to the title of her blog, is “A Well-Behaved Mormon Woman.” After being dragged against her will three different times by three sets of grandchildren to see Frozen, Skaggs couldn’t “Let It Go” any longer. After the third viewing she was convinced: This beloved movie, with its top-notch animation and its catchy theme song doesn’t just have homosexual undertones (what Disney movie doesn’t?) but is 108 minutes of pure gay propaganda! “It is apparent that the very best talent within the industry was called upon for every facet of producing and bringing [Frozen] to the big screen: illustrators; animators; writers; composers; singing artist; actors; etc., in order to woo its intended audience, parents, into a frozen-state, which would then allow liberalism to indoctrinate children,” Skaggs wrote in lengthy blog post last month. Most of the reactions to Skaggs’ claims that the evil geniuses at Disney had duped Christian parents across the country into allowing Frozen to brainwash their children into supporting the “normalization of same-sex sexual behavior”—or worse, turn them gay—have been criticized, dismissed and mocked the Internet over. Yet, as is often the case with outrageous, politically-charged conspiracy theories, someone was bound to bite. “If I was the Devil, what would I do to really foul up an entire social system and do something really, really, really evil to five- and six- and seven-year-olds in Christian families around America?” Pastor and right-wing radio host Kevin Swanson asked on his show Monday. “I would buy Disney.” He continued, “I wonder if people are thinking: ‘You know I think this cute little movie is going to indoctrinate my five-year-old to be a lesbian or treat homosexuality or bestiality in a light sort of way.’ I wonder if the average parent going to see Frozen is thinking that way. I wonder if they are just walking in and saying, ‘Yeah, let’s get my five-year-old and seven-year-old indoctrinated early.’ You know they’re not, I think for the most part they’re oblivious. Maybe they do pick up on pieces of it, but they just don’t get up and walk out.” Like Skaggs, neither Swanson nor his co-host Steve Vaughn, offer much in the way of specific examples of lines, scenes or even themes in the movie that prove their point. In fact, the only proof of “gay messaging” Skaggs provides is the suggestion that the main character Elsa’s magical power is a metaphor for homosexuality: She is ostracized by the public and even her family, just like the “demonization of homosexuals by society.” Elsa’s non-magical sister Anna’s shotgun wedding to someone she barely knows is meant to illustrate how “heterosexuals diminish marriage.” And, of course, the happy ending wherein Elsa’s family and community finally accept her for who she is sends the message that gays (Elsa) are not the problem, but rather society is the problem for rejecting them. National Catholic Register writer Steven Greydanus (who actually questioned Frozen’s gayness back in January) not only saw the rejected Elsa as a symbol for oppressed gay people, he also points out that Elsa, unlike her boycrazy sister, shows no interest in dating, so clearly she is a lesbian. If that’s not enough, following the closing credits “Elsa’s giant, male-voiced snow monster, wandering through her abandoned ice palace, picks up her abandoned tiara and places it daintily on his own head, smiling as it discovers its true inner princess.” Disney has a long history of fielding accusations of using its children’s movies to advance one liberal agenda or another —whether it’s gay rights, environmentalism or socialism. However, there seems to be something about Frozen that has attracted more than the usual amount of controversy for a kids’ cartoon.

READ MORE The Olivia Pope of Coming Out

Frozen is a feminist movie, claimed some critics, because neither of its female protagonists are rescued by a handsome prince in the end but, rather, they save themselves. Frozen is not so feminist, others argued, because Elsa’s climactic “coming out,” if you will, includes an arguably sexy makeover. Others still took the time to call Frozen racist, accusing Disney of “whitewashing” the indigenous people of Scandinavia, where the animated film is supposed to take place. And this was all before John Travolta epically flubbed singer Idina Menzel’s name, creating a fictional person and immediately overplayed meme, at the Academy Awards.

Those fearing Frozen’s homosexual agenda might want to consider the agendas of its critics. Kevin Swanson, for example, declared that “decadent homosexual activity,” marijuana legalization and abortion rights were to blame for the floods that devastated Colorado last summer. And despite insisting in her Frozen post that she is “not anti-gay” nor “here to judge homosexuals,” Kathryn Skaggs has dedicated a large number of her blog posts to advocating for “traditional marriage.” Then again, if you’re legitimately concerned about a Disney movie turning your children gay, you might be just the choir Swanson and Skaggs are preaching to.

She's certainly getting herself a lot of publicity from this.

The only reason anyone would feel it had gay undertones is if they had heard this crazy woman's ranting. So way to go. You're now pushing the agenda you wanted stopped.

 
The only obviously gay theme I picked up on was the shop keeper and his children with the guy in the sauna. But I just saw Dragons 2 in the theater and heard at least one gay undertone for the non Disney movie.

What always bothered my wife is that at least 1 parent either dies or is already dead in every movie. Also, no prince in any of the Disney movies is worthy of the princess with the exception of Phillip in sleeping beauty and Disney messed that up in the movie Melicent.

In your opinion or they actually do?

 
My daughters love this movie, my 3 year old especially so. She'll start singing Let it Go on occasion when she wakes up in the mornings, and her younger sister will try to join in sometimes.

As for the movie itself, it's one of the better animated movies that Disney has put out recently, and each time I watch it, Olaf is still funny.

Both parents are actually alive at the end of the movie.
