I'm oddly excited for this
Thanks for the reply! I think you're right about the purpose of the lullaby and that it doesn't need to be a big musical number. It's interesting that it didn't have any instrumental accompaniment.Clindor wrote:Well, the lullaby sung by queen is just your average lalluby. I don’t think there is too much to say about it.. There is no instrumental accompaniment (or at least not in the two scenes they showed and where it appears). I heard better lallubies in other movies yet there is absolutely nothing wrong with this one. But regarding this movie it doesn’t seem that the point is to make a big musical number out of this one (or maybe in a reprise?): it seems more like a key for the story, a riddle about the family’s magical powers claiming near the end that the answers are in the river...
Regarding Some things never change, I’m a bit shameful to admit it.. but at first I didn’t get it was going to be a song for the movie(mostly because they didn’t introduced it as such).. I thought it was something written for the D23 Expo as a homage to the success of this franchise..
(but yes on the other hand, it’s never a good sign when you’re able to mistake a movie song for something they would have taken a week to write..) BUT in the case of this one, the cast performed it on stage.. No footage was showed. Once again in the context of the story it will probably look better on film.
All I can add is that Jonathan Groff was giving 200% of himself on stage and it was a delight! ^^

In a new song, "Into the unknown", Elsa hints that she has heard this voice before in her life, and expresses her conflict in deciding whether she should follow the voice or not.

who knows deep down I’m not where I’m meant to be?
Every day’s a little harder as I feel my power grow.
Don’t you know there’s a part of me that longs to go into the unknown?"

Lol, and people give Elsa hell for running away from her responsibilities. I think it would be unforgivable if the Queen did that and parents would be mighty displeased.DisneyFan97 wrote:What if the queen faked her own death to avoid having to deal with Elsa's powers. Maybe the stress and anxiety become too much for her.

Though it's unclear how the conniving, power-hungry Prince Hans plays into the plot of Frozen 2, Santino Fontana is set to voice the villain nonetheless.
I hope this is true and I hope they've been hiding his real role and that he'll actually have a prominent position in the new movie.D82 wrote:According to The Hollywood Reporter, Hans will be in Frozen 2:

To be fair though, he's not a character who got a lot of merchandise in the first film either. He appeared on a lot of covers and stuff because at that point, nobody knew he was the villain so it would look weird if he was not pictured with the rest of the main cast. But for this film, they may be wanting to keep his presence a secret. That's just wishful thinking of course and maybe he'll have a few seconds cameo like in Frozen Fever.unprincess wrote: Even if he is in the film, it probably will be a very small cameo, b/c I can tell you, that tons and I mean TONS of merch have leaked onto Discord and Tumblr for weeks now and there's not been a single sign of him anywhere.It just feels very unlikely he'll have much presence in the film, if at all.
