What does it say about Elsa that she shot Anna with a frozen blast in the castle, and that she created the snow monster to attack her?
Okay, let's go to the tape!What we notice by watching this clip is that the instant Elsa hears that she's set off an eternal winter everywhere, she loses control of her powers: it starts snowing immediately and it only gets worse as the song continues. The song concludes with her sending out a a blast of ice in all directions, notably when she's facing away from Anna and when it's highly unlikely that she could possibly see what happened in the reflection of the ice she's facing. In other words, it's a complete accident.When Elsa turns around, she sees what's happened to Anna and is immediately horrified. For years, her greatest fear was hurting Anna again - note that in the song, Elsa's line "There's so much fear!" is immediately followed by "You're not safe here!" So now her greatest fear has been realized and she reverts back to the behavior she feels has kept Anna safe for years: Anna needs to go.The thing is, Anna won't go and Elsa can't bodily throw her from the castle. So she conjures up Marshmallow to do the dirty work there. Marshmallow throws out Anna, then retreats - it's only when Anna challenges Marshmallow (which comes out to challenging Elsa's decision) that Marshmallow gets aggressive.To quote the most important song in the movie, "people make bad choices when they're mad or scared or stressed."[1] Elsa's blast was an accident, but it's a profoundly frightening experience for her, so she makes a bad decision in an attempt to keep from another such accident. She's scared beyond words that she'll hurt her sister a third time, and come hell or high water, she will not let that happen, even if doing so means never seeing Anna again.However, in an earlier draft of the film, one where the cut "Life's Too Short" was the confrontation song, Elsa did lose control due to anger. But that was a different version of the film and the characters.[1] Yes, I'm arguing that the goofy-seeming "Fixer-Upper" is the most important song in the film. It's the bridge and final chorus that make it so, by clarifying the themes of the piece and by foreshadowing the climax.
Frozen (2013 movie): What does Elsa do her whole life, other than spend her time locked in a room?
Elsa is not locked in a room her entire childhood. She is trapped behind the closed gates of the castle, however.Frozen (2013) does not provide visual evidence of what Elsa does day to day during her childhood. But the scenes displayed during Anna’s solo, “Do You Want To Build A Snowman?” give two glimpses of the young Elsa outside her bedroom.Here’s Elsa in her room:Note the nice white fireplace on the left. Here’s Elsa getting her first gloves:That's not her room’s fireplace. It's the one in the Library:Finally, 18-year old Elsa saying farewell to her parents— Plainly in some other place in the castle, and even sharing space with their servant Kai, who doesn’t seem surprised the princess is beyond her room:Many viewers, even ardent fans, come away with the impression that Elsa is imprisoned in her bedroom for thirteen years. This is in no small part because the visual sequence incorporating “Do You Want To Build A Snowman” features Elsa’s shut bedroom door no less than seven times. The emotional power of Anna’s forced separation from Elsa is taken as a literal imprisonment, in the minds of much of the audience.Such is the spell of misdirection cast by Frozen.A Sister More Like Me, a Frozen tie-in children’s book that was released shortly before the film, is a charming rundown of the differences between Elsa and Anna.In the book, Elsa’s interests are largely intellectual, befitting a character inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s Snow Queen, along with some refinements she could practice without receiving guests.Frozen 2 (2019) is rumored to have more details of the sisters’ childhood. Perhaps we shall find out more canonical information about Elsa’s pastimes then.
Does anyone else dislike/hate Anna from Frozen?
My sisters think she's awesome and way better than Elsa. They say Elsa walks and smiles arrogantly and that the slit in her dress is disgusting. I personally think Anna is annoying and that she's too awkward for my taste. I don't like girl characters like her. (I'm straight, just so you know.) I like Elsa better because she's more graceful and elegant. I can really relate to her and I think she's kind of cool. If you love Anna then just stay away from here.
Why didn't Hans let Elsa die in the ice castle? Why did he save her?
The way I see it, Hans is a great example of a pragmatic villain. His ambition is his sole driving force, but all of his actions are taken with a view to how they'll benefit him. When given temporary control of the kingdom, he does everything he can to protect the kingdom, because a) he intends to run it and b) he wants to be seen as a hero. When he first meets Ana, he treats her with respect before even finding out she's the princess. Why? He's probably nice to most people, because that's in his interest, being kind and friendly costs nothing, and you may make friends who can someday help you.Killing Elsa, or even letting her die, wouldn't benefit him. He wasn't married to Ana yet, and didn't even know if she was still alive. Plus he didn't know whether the winter would end if Elsa died. At that point, it was much smarter to save Elsa, look like the hero, hopefully get her to lift the spell and bless his marriage to Ana, then get rid of her later. After all, who would suspect the man who saved her life?
[SPOILER] In Frozen, was there any hint in the first half of the movie of the identity of the villain?
UPDATE(This is the new answer): Ok, so I saw the movie again and yes, I am changing my answer.There was one major hint which my sister, who was watching the movie first time, found and immediately said that Hans is the villain. When Anna asks Hans to stay in Arendale, he agrees immediately. My sister said a loving husband would never say that. He would rather take Anna to the Southern Isles. That did not occur to me.Moreover, the guy who sends his henchmen was not Hans father as I previously noted in the answer. He wanted Elsa dead so that he can get hold of Arendale.So please disregard my previous answer. I was just too dim.I agree. There was no hint.Spoilers Ahead:Yes people may say that Hans himself suddenly asked for a marriage, but didn't Anna suddenly say "yes"?Firstly, if Hans was supposed to be the villain, why didn't his father tell him that he planned to kill Elsa in her ice castle when he and the henchmen went to find Anna? What's the deal with in-house secrecy?He could have killed Elsa trying to defend the Henchmen and then married Anna to become the king, but instead he stopped her by talking to her. Why did he do that? He had perfectly good reason to kill Elsa. He could have said that Elsa tried to kill him and he killed her in self-defense.Hans was too much of a Samaritan, by loaning people of Arryndale coats, blankets and food.There were too many opportunities where Hans should have revealed his true intentions, even partially, but he remained in character even when no one was watching.It felt like the less worse version of "Now you see me"
Does anyone dislike/hate Elsa from frozen?
I don't like Elsa a whole lot, and here's why. “Let It Go,” the Academy Award winning best song, is the stand-out sequence in the movie, and the defining sequence of Elsa’s character as well. Do you know what the last line of the song is? “The cold never bothered me anyway.” Elsa is so self involved that she’s not worried about anything but her being able to ‘let it go.’ Who cares how it affects anyone else in the kingdom? The cold doesn’t bother HER! If you’re going to say that when she sings that line, she hasn’t yet realized what she had done, that only serves to help my argument. She was so wrapped up in her own problem she didn’t even notice she was messing up an entire kingdom! Apparently leaving her poor sister behind doesn’t bother her either: all those years Anna knocked on her door trying to make a connection with her sister, and all means nothing, and neither does the interaction they finally have at the coronation. She just runs off, builds an ice castle, and basically says “Whatever.” And then when Anna finally tracks her down and asks her to come back and face the problems she’s created, she not only refuses, but she goes into a tirade and shoots a magical ice spear into her sister’s heart. As if that is not enough, she then follows it up by creating a giant ice monster to throw Anna and Kristoff out into the snow, where its very likely they could freeze to death.
Tangled is better than Frozen. Anyone else agree?
Frozen is really a good movie sure. But I think it's just a little overrated. Okay, people say that it's one of the best New Disney Animation Movies. But I desagree. In my opinion, Tangled it's a much better movie overall. Why? Tangled is what I call the "Complete Disney Animation Package". Frozen it's more a Broadway like movie than Disney. I'm not saying that I don't like it, because i really loved Frozen. But if you what I mean, I think Tangled is better.
