It's funny you should say that. Originally when I saw Tangled, I didn't much care for Flynn and though he was a big step down from the great Disney princes of the past.dollover wrote: I liked Kristoff the way he was in the movie too, mild and shlubby instead of the smarmy jerks that were Flynn and Naveen in the beginning of their movies.
But then I saw Kristoff in the movie and... *yawn*. "Mild and shlubby" is an accurate description, and that's precisely not the kind of character I care to see in a movie, where I actually want to be entertained.
Flynn may have been too much the GQ, but at least he had entertainment value. Kristoff ended up being basically a loser, but what's worse, a boring loser. Retroactively, Flynn looks better now by contrast.
The character in this clip, on the other hand, is fun to watch, and I love the fact that he's not about to put up with anything from Anna (unlike movie Kristoff, who lets himself be pushed around from pillar to post).
It's really a shame, because I had some hope for Kristoff being a great character before the movie came out. He wasn't my least favorite in the move, but I'd say that he was the most disappointing, based on what I hoped he'd be. This Kristoff, the Kristoff in the clip, is a lot more fun.
These two, the Kristoff and Anna in the deleted scene, could have produced a road trip that would have been enjoyable to watch.
