Yeah, that was very random.

I think this scene takes place before that other dressing room deleted scene, FYI.

Also, the lines:

"Halt, you swine!"

"Oh dear, I'm sorry."

"Excuse me, good sir. Good sir, please."

Is this Anna or Starfire from Teen Titans?

"Dear sister, would you like to construct a man of snow?"

I think my post got lost, but I would be interested to hear what people thought of my alternative idea for a sequel. I could be wrong I guess (about the lost part).

As an idea (I'm not sure if I like it or not), what if a sequel involved Elsa and Anna finding out that their parents were not dead. Say someone comes along and says there is a rumour that the King and Queen are stuck or held captive on an island or an underwater city (Atlantis, as an example) and can not escape. There are variations on what you could do. This story could have Anna and Elsa go on a mission to find them and bring them home. In regards to the Atlantis setting, we could have Elsa using her powers to create a tunnel in the water to the city/settlement. This could open up a setting where you could have a villian with magical power (eg an evil Sorcerer has them or whatever) or a cursed land which people can get lost in like a dream (or neither of these). Who knows, you could even add a bit of an origin story for Elsa's magic (the Sea took their parents to the underwater city/settlement because it felt a link to them). A few ideas anyway.

^I think a plot with their parents could be interesting, but having the queen and the closest successor leave the kingdom again wouldn't be a very good idea.

To be honest, I can't think of anything I'd particularly like for a sequel. I'd rather have another original movie made by the same crew. I'd like to see if they could manage it again.

[Victurtle]

The 'first' movie was based on character development more than anything else, and I think that's what was so appealing to audience, in spite of criticisms of story/pacing. I think any proposed sequel storyline will need to be similarly themed in order to feel genuine. That's why I think a sequel focusing on Hans would be great - there's so much story in Han's sibling relationship with twelve brothers that made him turn the way he does.

I did think that too, in regards to leaving the Kingdom and I'd have to agree on the part that we don't necessarily need a sequel. Maybe a short, if done in the right taste. Could include something similar to the deleted scene with the clothes. Could be fun.

I agree. A sequel like this doesn't mean Hans would have to be redeemed for what he had done to Anna and Elsa. Such dramatic for Disney to do this would cause an uproar. In fact...I got a new thread idea.

I'm disappointed that I didn't get the bonus disc, despite getting my copy at target

I thought my local Target didn't even have their special edition until I moved some BRs around and saw the Target sticker. I'm surprised there weren't more of their own edition; there was a significantly large amount of the standard BR release. The Target slip covers, although the same as the regular release, all had an issue on the side of the box where the cardboard just didn't seem to be glued together properly.

While the slipcovers are the same as the regular release, the case itself is wider on the Target exclusive editions. Not sure why, but they're all too wide to fit in the slipcovers, which is why all the slipcovers seem to have come unglued.

If this bothers anyone, you can buy replacement slipcovers and the standard size case from WDSHE Consumer Relations. IIRC, it's $3.95 for the first item, and $1 for each additional item... So $4.95 for a new slip and case.

'Frozen' Returns To No. 1 On Billboard 200 For Sixth Week
By Keith Caulfield, L.A. | March 19, 2014

Spring is just around the corner, but don't tell the "Frozen" soundtrack. The wintry Disney album returns to No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling 99,000 copies in the week ending March 16 (down less than 1 percent), according to Nielsen SoundScan.

A week ago, "Frozen" sold 100,000 at No. 3.

With its latest weekly sales sum, "Frozen" becomes the first album to sell a million units in 2014 (1.1 million this year). Its total sales stand at 1.4 million, as the set was released last November, and it sold 338,000 in 2013.

This is the sixth nonconsecutive week atop the chart for "Frozen." It first topped the list dated Jan. 18, reflecting the sales week that ended Jan. 5.

Since SoundScan began powering the Billboard 200 with its point-of-sale data in May 1991, "Frozen" is one of just four soundtracks with six or more weeks at No. 1.

see, people love Hanz, he needs to be in the sequel.

[DancingCrab]

I have to admit that Love Is An Open Door is one of those songs/moments that gets better with each viewing. The hints at Han's actual motives make the song so much more fun now, while In Summer and Fixer Upper have lost quite a bit of their appeal for me, especially the latter.

Is the case actually wider? I think the problem is the extra disc in a cardboard sleeve squeezed between the case and the slipcover. It's creating extra pressure on the slipcover.

Re-watching the film, I can see why some people come away seeing Anna as unlikable. After having seen it again, it's more clear to me that both Elsa and Anna have this arc of learning what "love" is or, rather, re-learning what it is after having it out of reach for so long. I see both characters as simultaneous villains and heroes, sort of like tamer versions of the Beast in B&tB--definitely two of Disney's most complex female characters. They both do or say things that would seem villainous, especially in the beginning of the film. Although we know Elsa is hurting, she is a real a-hole to Anna at the beginning, and throughout the middle act Anna does seem self-centered. Like the Beast, they have to experience love in order to move beyond negative behaviors that they had learned in order to cope with their isolation before. That's why I can believe the ending when Elsa realizes that's the emotion that controls her powers. She obviously did things out of love, but I don't think she'd actually felt her love for others in a long time.

Overall, I'd say Jonathan Groff is the weakest of the voice actors. He clearly fits the character perfectly, but he's just off on certain lines. Still a great film and "Let It Go" remains phenomenal. The first to break into my top 10 favorites (although TP&TF came close, it's just outside the 10).

[tomakpo]

I thought the same. I think the whole movie is about them about learning the meaning of true love. At first I thought it was just Anna learning that, but Elsa is too. When she Lets it Go she thinks being alone is the only way to be free. But then she learns that love is the answer. She can't hurt the people she love, because she loves them, and her feelings control her powers. Elsa learns there is a way to use her powers but also be with people, while Anna learns that her sister loves her and she loves her sister, because Elsa had put Anna's feelings over hers all these years and Anna puts Elsa's feelings over hers when she sacrifices herself to save her.

Haha, the public doesn't care about "Frozen Heart", "Reindeer Are Better Than People", "In Summer", or "Fixer Upper". Perhaps justifiably so...

What was that long clear thing cape like thing dragging behind Elsa's dress. It looked like it could easily trip her up.
