1. The orchestration is very bland... They should have used the orchestration from the Disneyland Paris show. They should have made the song epic, since it's emotional level is way too high.
2. She doesn't build her castle till the bridge? I know that it's nice to have a character display their emotions, but is 30 seconds enough for her to build that castle?
3. Idina Menzel's singing voice is just not right for Elsa... They should have made Elsa look older to use Idina's voice.
But then again. my opinion might change from now till I see the movie.
1. The point of the orchestrations is that when it reaches the high point (near the end), the orchestrations get bigger and grander with the sound of the song. The Disneyland Paris show uses the end of the song, that's why it sounded epic as it was, and it's the real orchestrations from the movie so I hear no difference.
2. She's free, she doesn't need to build her castle in 30 seconds tops right away. Elsa is feeling what she had been missing for almost her whole life, so she is taking her time in unleashing her powers in a way that's liberating for her.
3. I guess that's a matter of opinion, but I think Idina's singing voice matches Elsa just fine.
I agree, once we see the movie, it does get better, I felt that I See the Light from Tangled was an okay song untill I saw the movie and it was a beautiful sequence. I can't judge a Disney song in general when the visuals are the important key.
