Let me explain to you my opinions on The Princess and the Frog and Tangled in terms of their music. I always saw Alan Menken's music as stronger than Randy Newman's music in most films. Ironically, it's the other way around for Disney's two recent animated films.

Besides the reprise of Mother Knows Best (Reprise) and I See The Light, I wasn't that engaged with a lot of the songs in Tangled. Plus, The Princess and the Frog's music has a bit more of a toe-tapping feel to it and seemed a bit more engaging. Besides, Randy seemed like a more ideal choice for The Princess and the Frog IMO.

But I digress. If they do get Alan Menken to do the songs for this movie, they should bring Stephen Schwartz on board as well, not that I hold a bias against Glenn Slater.

89% want to see Frozen. I wonder if that number would still be the same if the title were The Snow Queen.

Frozen: 89%
The Snow Queen (Disney, NOT Wizart): 100%

They are already rating this movie and its not even a preview or a poster out yet.Man,can't they wait until more info is brought out.I think we will see a preview of the movie at the earliest when Brave comes out or when Wreck It Ralph is out in November.I still wonder what direction they will be going with the this movie because are they are going to make the Snow Queen more of a villianess or more of an misunderstood person.

It was killed as a hand-drawn project, then resurrected as a c.g. fairy tale after Tangled's success. Plus, J.L. liked one of Frozen's later scripts so it moved up in line.

Other way around, IMO. I love "When Will My Life Begin"

Agreed, When Will My Life Begin is awesome! My favorite song from the movie. Mother Knows Best and I See The Light are also good songs IMO. And I also like The Reprise versions. Don't care that much for I've Got A Dream though.

I think 'I've got a dream' is one of the best songs from the movie

haha, so it's all based on personal music taste....

In my opinion the overall soundtrack for Rapunzel was a bit weak, since the songs aren't as memorable as they were back in the 90's and earlier(to me they felt like 'been there, done that' and they sounded to stage-like, while The Princess and the frog sounded more 'fresh' imo)

King of the Elves has been up and down the May pole multiple times.

That's hilarious out of context.

Should this thread not be re-named "Frozen (The Snow Queen)" or something like that? I do not like the title change since I prefer the original fairy tale title, but the change has been confirmed.

That is a gripe I have with these forums is the topic titles never change after a film's name has been officially changed. Wish the topic creators would think to fix that.

Steve (the OP) hasn't posted in nearly a year.

Luke probably wouldn't mind changing it if someone emailed him about the situation.

Like for instance, the entire layout department is on WIR at the moment, with one lonely artist on Frozen. (First things first, I say.)

So, "Frozen" will indeed by a musical with Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez (of Winnie the Pooh) writing the songs. Awesome! I really liked their work on Pooh.

Also, Indina Menzel will voice the Snow Queen, so there's something for you Wicked fans.

Don't forget "Enchanted" fans!

This is great news, I think Idina will make a great villian and I really hope she has a solo song! Some of my favorite Disney songs are sung by the villains, so it would be perfect for Idina to have a solo.

Also, was it already known that the main characters would be named Anna and Kristoff?

Kristen Bell will costar as Anna, a young girl who ventures to find Menzel’s Snow Queen and end the perpetual winter that has fallen over their mythical kingdom, the studio announced today.

...

Still uncast in the movie is the role of the leading man, Kristoff, a mountain climber who leads Anna on her quest through snowy peaks and dangerous cliffs to find the legendary Snow Queen.

I'd read discussion about Kai and Gerda from the original fairytale, but I wasn't sure if the names above had already been discussed.

Idina Menzel AHHHHHHHH!
omg omg omg omg omg omg omg......
yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay

I am literally so happy, she is such a unique talent and I am really glad Disney have chosen her as I believe she is great to play a Disney Animated Character.

(I know she was Nancy in Enchanted but her talents far exceed that role.)
