That image of Prince Hans and Elsa together looks great. The lighting especially.
Obviously that's the dungeon scene where Hans tries to get Elsa to bring back summer and she tells him that she doesn't know how to undo her own magic.

Spoiler question: When did Elsa make Olaf again? I don't remember reading that part (the actual "birth" of Olaf) in the Novelization.
During the process of making the ice palace, I suppose. Don't think she was consciously aware of it. Read an interesting post on Tumblr about this:
Think about what this means.
Here is noble Queen Elsa, who has built an awe-inspiring ice-palace, a colossus as towering as a Gothic cathedral of ice, no less imposing than the mountain that provides its backdrop. She has constructed huge halls, soaring ceilings, grand staircases and balconies, and snow-art and ice-architecture of incomprehensible vastness and magnitude.
And in the midst of all of this epic construction…
…Elsa took the time to build a little snowman.
Adult Elsa — the self-exiled Snow Queen — here in her mighty domain of solitude…
…took the time to roll together a tiny snowman, with exactly the same little proportions and face and features as those of the snowman that she built so many years ago, as a child — back when she spoke for the snowman, saying, “I’m Olaf, and I like warm hugs.”
Adult Elsa didn’t even know that she gave this new Olaf life when she formed him, as she is surprised by Olaf’s living appearance inside her palace.
But in the midst of erecting an awesome ice-castle, an enormous snow-cathedral as tall as a mountain, adult Elsa stepped outside of her icy walls and rolled together the little snowman of her youth, just as she did as a child.
Seeing that photo of young Elsa, I just realised...Is she the Last Snowbender?

looks like that Hans/Anna a musical number is gonna be a chore to sit through....on the other hand I can see why it was done the way it was:
they cant go the "So this is Love" route & make it a genuine heartfelt love song b/c the audience would become too invested in the romance, so that when the big reveal comes later it will be too devastating. By poking fun at their romance Disney is sending a subtle warning: "dont get too invested in Hans/Anna b/c its gonna turn ugly later on."
So, this must be For the First Time in Forever in the Musical Doll. Gee, I wonder how it's supposed to sound. If FTIF is in the beginning, shouldn't it be much happier?
Happier ? My god no ! It´s perfect that way ! FTFTIF is about the sisters ' s childhood, full of dramas and of difficult relations between the two girls, raised appart ! Those first notes sounds so moving, delicate and melancholic ! Love it. It´s a sad lullaby. Maybe some parts will be more dynamic. Obviously, Anna will sing it when Arendelle's gates open again, remembering all the past days ( flashback scenes... )
