I mean, yes, but from the point of view of the first movie, it's pretty clear that the ending has them 'married and flying into the night', ala every other princess movie before. It's only in the following stuff that we learn that they actually did not marry, and had a life as a couple for a while.
@@ghostlyboos6864 Thats Frozen Heart lol. When Critic said the comment, I pretty sure he was talking about Vuelie that plays right before it gets into the Frozen Heart intro. Although I will admit, Frozen Heart is also an underrated song on the soundtrack that I adore very much.
I’ll be honest: when frozen came out, I was in 6th grade. In the months following, my teacher and both my dogs died. I used Let It Go as a coping mechanism, so to this day, that song has a strong impact on me. I remember getting goosebumps the first time I heard it
at least something good came out of the song existing. Show Yourself from the second movie had a similar impact on me though Hope you are better these days
I actually really missed that bit I kinda wish he'd do call backs a bit more Some of us have been here since the early days of nostalgia critic. Watching many people on that guy with the glasses website
As a Russian, I must say that all those people running in this snowy environment in light clothing and without proper headwear and casually falling into snow and icy rivers without any damage really trigger me.
MovieGuy134 The hell? Okay, perhaps they’re not as intriguing as they used to be to YOU. But, maybe OTHERS (yeah didn’t think there were did yah?) still enjoy his theories whether they don’t make sense or are too irrational.
MovieGuy134 Love this argument So well constructed, being both stupendously short and well executed, while also delivering just the right amount of criticism from such a controversial point of view, the one who wrote this should be given the grandest of Honors for words have never brought such a controversy to the forefront of the public eye before today. It brings a tear to my eye every time I return to re-read it
MovieGuy134 Thanks Keep up the good work No, but seriously I just find your argument needs a bit more information as to WHY you think matpat it so bad now. I admit the theorys are not as good as before, and even a lot of old ones are pretty bad, but it is entertaining to see what insane nonsense he and his friends will come up with next just for the heck of it, and sometimes the things he uses to get the theorys running is a lot more interesting that the theory itself
if this movie was logical and the reindeer only lives 10 years, then Sven is likely Sven Jr. when Kristoff is an adult. Sven Sr. was when Kristoff was a kid.
Well, how does the saying go in situations like this? "This is a movie about a woman with magic ice powers who can use her hands to bring eternal winter, turn people into ice, and create life, and we're talking about how the reindeer should have been dead by the time Kristoff was an adult."
The *AVERAGE* lifespan of a reindeer *in the wild* is 10 years, that doesn't mean reindeers can't live longer. The *average* lifespan of humans ranges from 75-85 years depending on certain factors, yet there are still people who live into their 90s or even over 100. When Sven is first introduced, just by his size and weight he was only a few months old, based of the age of the girls and Kristoff they seem like they're 6-10 years old with Elsa being the oldest. That means by the time Elsa turned 21, only twelve years give or take a year or two have passed. Just to show how lazy and selective Nostalgia Critic was in his research for creating that joke, just from a simple Google search I found that reindeers typically live about 15 years in the wild, and about 20 years in captivity, and with Sven being a captive reindeer, we can assume he would easily still be alive by the time Elsa turned 21. Young Elsa at the beginning could have been as young as 6 years old and 15 years later Sven would still have a possible 5 more years of life left in him. Source: www.britannica.com/animal/reindeer
Well i agree, but technically it's 28 years old now, which for a movie is pretty old already :D (Okay I had to look up that Suburban Commando was from 1991, but it didn't take long :D)
I always took the “then leave” line to mirror how Elsa wants to leave and escape her life of concealment. Like she legit thinks that’s good advice and is projecting her situation into Anna’s.
You read too much into it, imo. If this wasn't the same movie that shoehorned Hans as the villain and trolls that do not follow their own advice, I'd agree with you on how emotionally smart that is.
The then leave is how she thinks it should be. She shut herself out and everyone out to not hurt them. So why would she make her sister stay and keep the doors open when she wants to just get it over with than close everything again and be left alone. There was no turn that's how she thinks it has to be. No turn. The turn is her letting people in.
John Tumahab They HAD different plans for the World. If you look closely you can see the tidbits for what was going to be the plot, from Larxene’s inexplicable ice labyrinth, to Sora and co being blown off the mountain by icy wind (when Larxene couldn’t do that before) and even the Nordic wolf heartless. It looked like it was gonna explore Elsa if she gave in to the darkness and the plot would be trying to pull her out of that terrible place. But nope! Disney forced them to just copy paste the movie. Disney be the Madmen in that regard.
I think they made so much money on this franchise that they could be nice and give us a version with the songs removed. Sort of like the opposite of a sing-along version. It's a nice story (and an ice story......sorry) but my God these songs make me want to rip my ears off.
I can't believe Nostalgia Critic didn't mention how Han's betrayal doesn't' make sense because if he saved Anna and married her, he would be the King.Whereas if he kills her, the kingdom would go to some other family memeber, like a distant cousin, uncle, aunt, or something like that. Not some random prince who almost married the princess.
8:23 I never thought that was odd. Her reaction is true to her character. Elsa is an anxious young woman who has shut herself away and has, for all we know, had little to no socialization with anyone since her parents died. She doesn't know how to react to her sister, she's feeling her powers beginning to do things and she responds in a short and harsh way because she's afraid and doesn't know what else to do. That felt natural to me, as someone with severe anxiety, because I've literally done that in situations where I wasn't sure how to react. You lash out at someone else because you're afraid of where the situation is going and your mind is only processing that they are upset and, personally, when another person is overly emotional it can set off my anxiety and a need to get away. So I didn't really think it was out of character or anything for her to snap like that, rude and hurtful, but understandable. I could be reading too much into this
Not to mention she tried to take Anna aside to talk in private but Anna wouldn't let her. For all we know she could have told Anna about what happened when they were kids and the anxiety might been alleviated. But it didn't work and there's no way at all she would publicly tell her sister what happens those years ago.
Elsa isn't anxious because she shut herself away, or for any such rubbish as whether or not she can be a good queen or avoid being persecuted by the masses. She suppressed her emotions and capabilities specifically to protect Anna from herself. But other than that, it's spot on. She ironically lashes out at the very person she's trying to protect because she knows Anna's love is so unconditional, taken so far for granted, and it's so difficult for her to imagine life where it's not the case, and she unconsciously abuses her knowing that she won't actually leave her. The paradox of Elsa leaving the kingdom was that she actually wanted Anna to come after her. If this all seems completely irrational, it is. Because Elsa didn't have control over her emotions anymore than she did her power. And the reason for that is she chose to hide from them. Her parents telling her to lock the power away wasn't so much advice than anyone actually gave her but an externalization of her own parental intuitions; putting her younger sister in the position of a child that she is responsible for. I.E "This power is clearly dangerous, so I have to keep it away from her" -- even though this is the worst possible way she could have dealt with the situation. (Or was it? It's not like the heart grows up over night.) The parents can't really help their children directly with these deeply subjective and personal issues, so for the purposes of the story, they're taken out of the picture fairly quickly. As far as her own pychic development is concerned, Elsa might as well be an orphan.

@@Chad_Eldridge THANK YOU! Good to know I'm not the only one who thinks "I'll see myself out" should be dragged into the dirt! I like your style, dude. XD
Nostalgia Critic: People don't know this isn't meant to be taken literally Also Critic: *looks up the life span of a reindeer in a world where rock trolls exist.*
There’s a world where dragons, orcs, elves, magic and a giant flaming eye exists. There’s still real world logic in fantasy worlds. I can expect a certain bug to live it’s natural life span in a fantasy world
As a matter of fact, seems like he didn't look up the lifespan of a reindeer, because they can reach ages of about 20 years old. So the reindeer in Frozen should be just fine.
With the whole "you can't marry a guy you just met", that's literally been the case for EVERY Disney film. Think about it, the films either end with them ending up together where they'll dance, ride off together, or get married in a legit time skip. Seriously, not one of the disney princess films ends with them getting married literally the next day.
@@pundertalefan4391 I think the message was to have a mix of reality and whimsy in your life. Giselle was a cartoon princess who had to learn about being more real and the guy (forgot the name) was too real that he needed to have some whimsy in his life. I'm not super certain if it's true but I got it from Cinema Therapy. Watch it, it's both informative and funny.
Same. NGL I was never big into Frozen, but I actually really liked Vuelie as a cultural tribute to the setting being in Norway. Honestly I just find the rest of the movie so Disneyfied and not really appreciative of Scandinavian culture imo
Don't you get bored of obvious villains though? It's pretty cool having a villain successfully pull off being a 2 faced bastard without making it obvious to the audience from the get go.
To be honest, I kind of miss the flashy Disney villains of the old. But I like both, a good twist villain can be fun. Hans isn't a good twist villain, though.
It's not about foreshadowing. It's about the question if Hans actions make sense if he is the villain. Also, Love is an Open Door plays pretty much like a standard love song. The one they originally wrote, "You are you" would have worked way better if they had intended to foreshadow. But at one point they apparently decided that the reveal should be more of a "surprise"....though in this case, hey should have skipped the "you want to marry someone you just meet" part. I just knew. Not because the text was moving in the direction, but because I feared that this would be the main meta-text of the story, and they wouldn't be smart enough to make the point in a more settled manner. I HATE it when Disney panders to their most vocal critics.
Nicholas Steel okay but him being all sweet and smiling at Anna even when her back is turned or when she’s gone doesn’t make sense for a surprise villain Big hero made more sense as a surprise villain cuz I was surprised and not like “wait what???”
When you said Anna was way too open to everyone and that can be a problem for a lot of people online, I 100% thought it was turning into an additional ad for your sponsor.
Tarzan wasn't speaking english before he met Jane, he was speaking gorilla, but it was from his perspective. So we hear the gorilla language how Tarzan hears it, which to us would be english, but in actuality he was speaking gorilla. That's why when he was introducing Jane to his gorilla mother, he sounded like a gorilla, because we were hearing it from Jane's perspective. Geeze guys! I figured this stuff out when I was 8 years old!
Why would there be more than one "perspective"? :D It's nice that your head repairs flaws in disney's storytelling for them, but this explanation makes less sense than the movie scene unexplained.
@@Ugly_German_Truths It appears you've never watched a disney movie, or at least one with a talking animal. It's so sad when a person like you, with your so call "mind" can not comprehend language perspective. You see what I am talking about is like in the Pixar movie "Ratatouille". We can hear the rat speak English, but to the human characters he's just a squeaking mouse. The rats are not actually speaking english, we're hearing them from their perspective of how they hear and understand other rats. Also on the simpsons, where Bart is trying to train his dog, we hear Bart speaking english, but to the dog we hear incomprehensible jibberish example: "Blah blah blah".
Exactly! Kristoff has been obsessed with ice his whole life; the movie literally starts with Baby Kristoff collecting ice. (Kinda sad he never gets to tell Elsa how cool her powers really are 😢)
Well it MIGHT be a nod to some of the internet "problems" people constantly misspell like definitely/defiantly... the video talked a bit about the excesses of internet usage and that would work as a tie-in into that and be kind of clever. nonetheless it's been annoying me too.
@@MansLaughter365 The movie's still good, don't get me wrong. The troll song just kills the flow, momentum, and tone all at the same time. It's also by far the least memorable song in the movie.
It’s basically implying you objectify someone or something. Be cautious of this, but yah we’ve all got a physical form made of matter in the universe, so go right ahead.
@@maxbearington7565 "Objectifiably" doesn't even make sense. To "objectify" means taking something or someone and treat it as an "object" for the sake of analysis or with malicious intent, depending on the circumstances. "Objectifiable" designates something that can be objectified or made objective, again depending on context. "Objectifiably"... I wonder if it even exists. I mean, it does now thanks to this video, but it still has no meaning.
Enchanted is great, but I've often seen it as a parody of Disney fairy tales, for it mocks many of the tropes. Enchanted would be the 1st Disney movie to point this out, while Frozen would be the 1st Disney fairy tale in its own right to address this. It's like how Flynn Rider in Tangled would be the 1st Disney character to question why everyone is singing, even though Patrick Dempsey in Enchanted did it before he did. The difference that Patrick Dempsey's character is a human in the real world where musical numbers are not commonplace, and Flynn Rider IS a character in the musical world where it is commonplace. Flynn Rider would the bigger novelty because he actually *lives* in that fairy tale world and tropes like that shouldn't be literal or strange to him.
@@welcometothemetaverse2523 Also him and Rapunzel also didn't immediately get married. There are at least a few years between the movie and their wedding. (Which are getting more fleshed out in the series)
In the moment hans was the villain and she said "You'll never get away with this" I wanted so badly for him to make a callback burn after the "I already have", but he didnt. I wished he said "I already have, and you know why?" and then shows her confused and he just says "Love is an open door." and then lock her in.
I’ll be honest, I didn’t start liking Frozen until I was older. Let me explain why. If you watch the scene where Anna “confronts” Elsa in her ice castle, the body language and the way the voices melt together (where Elsa’s is the stronger of the two and is a bit hurried and worried and Anna’s is more comforting and trying to calm her down) it looks like when I have a panic attack and a family member is trying to calm me down. Elsa is panicking and Anna’s trying to soothe her and convince her that they can bring back summer together but Elsa is too wrapped up in the panic to hear her. And then she explodes and lashes out. It looked almost action for action like an anxiety attack. Elsa’s character is like a superpowered, personified version of an anxiety sufferer. And Elsa ran away because she’d spent her whole life choking down the powers, choking back emotion (which makes the magical ourbursts), and the one time she’s pushed over the edge-people call her a monster and reel back from her. She doesn’t want it for her life, so she runs away to get away and not face the fact that people are afraid of what she is. When she’s alone, she feels liberated and forgets her fear-only to be confronted with it again as soon as someone else is around. It’s that cycle of fear over and over again. And, honestly, I liked having a character I could relate to on that odd level, a personal level-not just in apperance like some Disney princesses. Also-I liked the “act of true love” as it wasn’t the typical Disney true love conquers all moment but still not a complete surprise. It was just different enough to not be stale.
I used to sing the duet between Anna and Hans when the movie first came out, and I would take my little brother to middle school while listening to the album. He began singing this duet with me. We had a blast until I realized how weird it was for two siblings to sing this love-duet. I didn't sing that song anymore after that xD
@@alysssabear And Kida, she didn't want to marry a man; the princess desire to save her people. She falled in love later but her biggest priorities was the safety and happyness of the citizens.
@@alysssabear In Ariel's defense how many other guys are going to run after you when you've been kidnapped by a sea witch who can make herself a giant and create actual storms? Eric more then proved within those three days he's a guy who will stick by you even when things are at their worst. I don't blame her for insisting on a wedding after that.
Frozen is still a great movie. It's entertaining, visually beautiful, well voice acted, funny, dramatic, relatable, has memorable songs... It's a complete package, in my opinion. And I'll never get tired of Let It Go. It was annoying ONLY when every single person on youtube played it into the ground (not to mention at anime conventions in the karaoke room). The song itself is great and always will be. I remember when I first saw this in the theaters with my fiance. My mouth was slack-jawed and I don't think I blinked once during that song. It blew me away. So, yes, I believe it deserved all the praise it got and continues to get. I had no idea it had gained backlash recently, though. :/
klimmr3021 Have you read comments before everyone does "Random thing that was said in the video" - Guy who made the video So if anything Im ripping off everyone hm now I just feel worse (also I haven't heard anything about those two the other times I made a comment like that)
I honestly didn't mind "Let it Go" when I first heard it. It's when they started to over-play it to death, that I started loosing my mind! Also, unlike other Disney movies, Frozen went into Song every 5 minutes, which also started to irritate me.
@@nine_tails137 same, i remember when i used to love the song a LOT until it started to get in every single radio and i started to hate it- but the song, indeed, it's good.
@@nicoleflores2054 Exactly! I can't tell you how many times "Let it Go!" was played on nearly every radio station since Frozen's debut! I mean, talk about over-saturation!
Nostalgia Critic: "I literally can't think of a joke for 'chocolate' even if I've had six years to come up w..." All Spongebob Fans: "I'M GONNA HAVE PLANKTON PUT YOUR BRAIN IN THE NOSTALGIA CRITIC ROBOT SUIT SO HE CAN MAKE A DAMN CHOCOLATE JOKE!" I feel like you're trolling bruh
@Gabby Lucas Also the lyrics are dirty and lusty. There are little children who sing this song without a clue. How low have yankees fallen liking reggaeton.
Personally I thought “Tangled” was a much better film, and way funnier! But it didn’t have a catchy, song like “Let it Go” so it isn’t remembered quite as fondly.
I get what you mean in that 'Let It Go' was something that really took off, and for good reasons as mentioned in the review... But honestly, despite loving that song, I'd listen to 'I See The Light' over that one any day. It's just such a beautiful song. Should've taken off more!
@@meadowsproductions981 It's not grammar nazi-ing, since the grammar isn't being called into question. Also, try googling the word in question, and you'll see Feanaaro is correct
@@BeggarsNight it's weird, because I could swear in all these years of nostalgia critic this is the first time they use this "word". On the contrary they must have said "objectively" at least a bunch of times.
When Anna tells Olaf to wait outside the ice castle for a minute, he starts counting. Oh so humorous... Actually, when he wanders into the scene afterwards... IT'S BEEN A MINUTE! Credit.
Maybe. But the same thing happens with me and my older sister. we look at each other and say the same word and laugh because we thought about the same thing so it could be a sibling thing
The prince is probably 16, so it really isn't that much of an issue. She isn't dead and that's the only way to wake her up. It would be immoral not to kiss her.
The romance between Christof and Anna is just utter pointless and you can remove it without hurting the story one bit. It might actually becoming better.
The climax of the entire movie is built around Anna's choice to NOT go to Kristoff. Saying that the Anna-Kristoff romance is pointless is like saying that Frodo is pointless in Lord of the Rings, because he's not the one who ends up destroying the ring.
They spend more time building romance between Hans and Anna. Then for Anna and Kristoff bring a bunch of rock trolls to tell us they should be in love.
@@SweetLittleKitten15 Anna spends more time with a version of Kristoff who is trying to get rid of her. Only after she begins to feel the effects of Elsa's ice attack does he act like he cares. If they wanted to make Hans the bad guy why make him act so helpful and concerned in the beginning? Why not drop a hint that it's a ruse. I heard rumors they were planning the story to go differently but changed their mind after they already had animated the early parts.
I still like “Let It Go”. Growing up with Aspergers, I had to spend most of my life pretending to be normal. Then I got my diagnosis and it was finally okay to just let go and be me. So the lyrics to “Let It Go” were extremely poignant to me.
I was diagnosed, too. I gave up trying to be normal when people told me I had to stop playing certain video games, just because they weren't popular anymore. Being normal is seriously not worth it.
Amen to throwing off that yoke. Took me awhile to be ok with my Autism, but being "normal" is dumb. I'd rather be 'differently rational' and explore creativity. Still find Let it Go a badly placed scene and an annoyingly catchy song, even if the song itself is great. Its the overexposure of it and Frozen as a whole that gets on my nerves.
Be Prepared might be better than Hakuna Matata, but Hakuna Matata ist still a decent/good song in its own right. Good enough that it DIDN'T made my list of the top ten worst Disney songs of all time. Fixer Upper on the other hand didn't just made the list, it was from the get go the clear forerunner. It is the one Disney song I truly hate. HATE!!!! Everything about it is just wrong. They annoying melody, the questionable text, the placement in the movie, everything about it is so bad, it made me hate the trolls by proxy. Not even "A Guy like you" managed to do it to this degree with the f... gargoyles.
@@JesseGolo no...the creators of Frozen trued to confirm it but Disney fans everywhere who have actually watched both movies know it's bullshit. Tarzan's mother had long firey red curled hair and his father was brunette with a large LARGE mustache and mutton chops. Anna/Elsa parents were not: brunette mother with shortish hair and no curls, blonde father with smallish mustach and no mutton chops. The Frozen ship capsized. The Tarzan ship went down in a firey blaze. And they are NOT THE SAME SHIP AT ALL Tarzan's parents already had a something month old baby with them when the boat went down. Elsa/Anna parents were supposed to only be gone a couple weeks and very ovlbviously did not have a baby with them. Elsa/Anna parents were on their way to rapunzel's corronation......Punzel's kingdom is nowhere on the path to Central America (while the movie would make you believe it's Africa, Sabor the leopard is ONLY found in parts of Central America) Tarzan also takes place in the early 1900s while Frozen is set around the 1800s (both you can tell from the dress style) almost 100 years apart. That theory is disproved within th3 movies themselves.
Hold up, actually, objection. What he did to "save her" was the accident - and a brilliant one, too. I've actually analyzed this before. His goals were to try to kill Elsa and make it look like an accident, so he couldn't just murder her; the guards would notice. He goes and pretends he's holding on to his "I'm not here to kill her" idea because he's gathering data, which he can't do being upfront. Once he's done with the unaccounted for enemy (The Ice Castle's Guard; Marshmallow), he returns to his quest, and awaits his opening. Having found it and realized how dangerous she is, he tries to get on Elsa's good side by telling her not to be the monster everyone fears she is, which of course stops her just enough for her to be vulnerable. He was subduing her, not helping her. Look at Hans right before he goes to "save" Elsa. He raises an eyebrow, then looks up for a brief moment as he runs. Perhaps realizing that he had a perfect opportunity for a little accident - which he of course had to fabricate through some improvisation after observation. Did you see where he redirected the shot? That was very much planned! He could have easily shot it anywhere else, but you can see the gears turning in his eyes as he points it towards the ceilling, straight into the thinnest part of the ice holding the chandelier. It does look like an accident the first time, but it obviously isn't upon a second viewing with this information. Elsa was going to die right there, but she managed to run away just enough to avoid getting herself completely impaled or crushed by the ice. All things considered, it should have worked. If Elsa was even a smidge worse at running on ice with high heels, she'd be done for. He didn't think of her even trying, though.
@@ViktoriaMagrey But then why not just let the guard take the shot? Then if the guard missed it would have the same result, but if it hit he could pin everything on the guard.
@@Nicholas_Steel Wait what? Why would the guards care if Hans was planning to kill Elsa? Isn't that what they were there to do? Or maybe they were trying to capture her, haven't seen the film in a while, but i recall multiple kill shots in that scene. And if he didn't want them to think he was there to kill her, and killing her would put him in a bad light, why would they blame Hans for the guard killing her? And gathering data for what? Why not just let the guard kill her?
The moment of Elsa saying "then leave" isn't a heal turn of any sort. It ties into her believing that Anna would be safer far away from her; compounded by Anna having just implied that she would be happier that way too.
Not just that Anna would be safer far away, but also that Anna has that choice - Elsa is a prisoner of her position, of her powers, of herself, of fear. Elsa can't leave, can't escape, has to remain in her cold, lifeless castle, isolated from her people, but Anna doesn't have to be a prisoner beside her. Anna can escape, can live life, can feel emotions. Of course, to Anna it's a slap in the face - her longed-for sister exiling her for no good reason - but for anyone who's been paying attention to the movie, it's an entirely natural response.
Whoo there, nelly. Don't go giving Disney any ideas. They already made a crappy live-action Pinocchio movie and there's going to be a live-action Little Mermaid movie. Why give them the idea to make a live-action movie of one of their most popular movies?
i mean i dont see why ppl have to accept it just bc disney only makes mediocre content. other studios like pixar have been able to make movies 10 times better than disneys stuff, if people dont want to enjoy disney movies for what they are because of that thats their choice. inb4 “pixar movies are disney movies”: disney owns pixar but disney studios and pixar studios are completely separate and dont share workers
While I don't really hate Frozen as much as other people, movies like Treasure Planet, Beauty & The Beast, Tangled, Princess & The Frog, Lion King, are better films.
I actually like your idea of the movie about "everyone over corrects their 'problems'." I've been part of many online discussions about how the King and Queen only compound Elsa's anxieties and complexes. And its interesting to see you regarding it as part of a larger pattern within the movie. Like, I've always discussed Elsa's social anxieties (cause I have them too) and Anna's social longing, but they've all been as separate entities in a way. Its funny how its only took me six years to see the whole family's problem solving methods are actually the same. But a blanket solution for wholly unique problems sure creates some crazy scenarios.

I mean, yes, but from the point of view of the first movie, it's pretty clear that the ending has them 'married and flying into the night', ala every other princess movie before.
It's only in the following stuff that we learn that they actually did not marry, and had a life as a couple for a while.
ElladanKenet Pocahontas, Mulan, and Hunchback. No marriages to the men they just met.

"Why have a ballroom with no balls?" That half-second Critic reaction had me dyin', lol!
if this movie was logical and the reindeer only lives 10 years, then Sven is likely Sven Jr. when Kristoff is an adult. Sven Sr. was when Kristoff was a kid.
Or, you know, Troll magic...
good one
Well, how does the saying go in situations like this?
"This is a movie about a woman with magic ice powers who can use her hands to bring eternal winter, turn people into ice, and create life, and we're talking about how the reindeer should have been dead by the time Kristoff was an adult."
The *AVERAGE* lifespan of a reindeer *in the wild* is 10 years, that doesn't mean reindeers can't live longer. The *average* lifespan of humans ranges from 75-85 years depending on certain factors, yet there are still people who live into their 90s or even over 100. When Sven is first introduced, just by his size and weight he was only a few months old, based of the age of the girls and Kristoff they seem like they're 6-10 years old with Elsa being the oldest. That means by the time Elsa turned 21, only twelve years give or take a year or two have passed. Just to show how lazy and selective Nostalgia Critic was in his research for creating that joke, just from a simple Google search I found that reindeers typically live about 15 years in the wild, and about 20 years in captivity, and with Sven being a captive reindeer, we can assume he would easily still be alive by the time Elsa turned 21. Young Elsa at the beginning could have been as young as 6 years old and 15 years later Sven would still have a possible 5 more years of life left in him. Source:

Damn. Didnt catch that. Nice comment there bud
You read too much into it, imo. If this wasn't the same movie that shoehorned Hans as the villain and trolls that do not follow their own advice, I'd agree with you on how emotionally smart that is.
The then leave is how she thinks it should be. She shut herself out and everyone out to not hurt them. So why would she make her sister stay and keep the doors open when she wants to just get it over with than close everything again and be left alone. There was no turn that's how she thinks it has to be. No turn. The turn is her letting people in.

If you look closely you can see the tidbits for what was going to be the plot, from Larxene’s inexplicable ice labyrinth, to Sora and co being blown off the mountain by icy wind (when Larxene couldn’t do that before) and even the Nordic wolf heartless. It looked like it was gonna explore Elsa if she gave in to the darkness and the plot would be trying to pull her out of that terrible place.
But nope! Disney forced them to just copy paste the movie.
Disney be the Madmen in that regard.
I think they made so much money on this franchise that they could be nice and give us a version with the songs removed. Sort of like the opposite of a sing-along version. It's a nice story (and an ice story......sorry) but my God these songs make me want to rip my ears off.

Pregnant Elsa is a hit.
Squidward what?! WHAT THE FU-
The fact i lived pass this weird game phase is weird
I can't believe Nostalgia Critic didn't mention how Han's betrayal doesn't' make sense because if he saved Anna and married her, he would be the King.Whereas if he kills her, the kingdom would go to some other family memeber, like a distant cousin, uncle, aunt, or something like that. Not some random prince who almost married the princess.
8:23 I never thought that was odd. Her reaction is true to her character. Elsa is an anxious young woman who has shut herself away and has, for all we know, had little to no socialization with anyone since her parents died. She doesn't know how to react to her sister, she's feeling her powers beginning to do things and she responds in a short and harsh way because she's afraid and doesn't know what else to do. That felt natural to me, as someone with severe anxiety, because I've literally done that in situations where I wasn't sure how to react. You lash out at someone else because you're afraid of where the situation is going and your mind is only processing that they are upset and, personally, when another person is overly emotional it can set off my anxiety and a need to get away. So I didn't really think it was out of character or anything for her to snap like that, rude and hurtful, but understandable.
I could be reading too much into this
Not to mention she tried to take Anna aside to talk in private but Anna wouldn't let her. For all we know she could have told Anna about what happened when they were kids and the anxiety might been alleviated. But it didn't work and there's no way at all she would publicly tell her sister what happens those years ago.
Elsa isn't anxious because she shut herself away, or for any such rubbish as whether or not she can be a good queen or avoid being persecuted by the masses.
She suppressed her emotions and capabilities specifically to protect Anna from herself.
But other than that, it's spot on. She ironically lashes out at the very person she's trying to protect because she knows Anna's love is so unconditional, taken so far for granted, and it's so difficult for her to imagine life where it's not the case, and she unconsciously abuses her knowing that she won't actually leave her.
The paradox of Elsa leaving the kingdom was that she actually wanted Anna to come after her.
If this all seems completely irrational, it is. Because Elsa didn't have control over her emotions anymore than she did her power. And the reason for that is she chose to hide from them.
Her parents telling her to lock the power away wasn't so much advice than anyone actually gave her but an externalization of her own parental intuitions; putting her younger sister in the position of a child that she is responsible for.
I.E "This power is clearly dangerous, so I have to keep it away from her" -- even though this is the worst possible way she could have dealt with the situation. (Or was it? It's not like the heart grows up over night.)
The parents can't really help their children directly with these deeply subjective and personal issues, so for the purposes of the story, they're taken out of the picture fairly quickly.
As far as her own pychic development is concerned, Elsa might as well be an orphan.
Finally someone understands

The only reason Hans is a "surprise" (and I still saw it coming) is that his actions before the reveal make zero sense for him being the villain.
Don't you get bored of obvious villains though? It's pretty cool having a villain successfully pull off being a 2 faced bastard without making it obvious to the audience from the get go.
To be honest, I kind of miss the flashy Disney villains of the old. But I like both, a good twist villain can be fun. Hans isn't a good twist villain, though.
Love is an Open Door is a foreshadowing
It's not about foreshadowing. It's about the question if Hans actions make sense if he is the villain.
Also, Love is an Open Door plays pretty much like a standard love song. The one they originally wrote, "You are you" would have worked way better if they had intended to foreshadow. But at one point they apparently decided that the reveal should be more of a "surprise"....though in this case, hey should have skipped the "you want to marry someone you just meet" part. I just knew. Not because the text was moving in the direction, but because I feared that this would be the main meta-text of the story, and they wouldn't be smart enough to make the point in a more settled manner.
I HATE it when Disney panders to their most vocal critics.
Nicholas Steel okay but him being all sweet and smiling at Anna even when her back is turned or when she’s gone doesn’t make sense for a surprise villain
Big hero made more sense as a surprise villain cuz I was surprised and not like “wait what???”

Tarzan wasn't speaking english before he met Jane, he was speaking gorilla, but it was from his perspective. So we hear the gorilla language how Tarzan hears it, which to us would be english, but in actuality he was speaking gorilla. That's why when he was introducing Jane to his gorilla mother, he sounded like a gorilla, because we were hearing it from Jane's perspective. Geeze guys! I figured this stuff out when I was 8 years old!
Why would there be more than one "perspective"? :D It's nice that your head repairs flaws in disney's storytelling for them, but this explanation makes less sense than the movie scene unexplained.
@@Ugly_German_Truths It appears you've never watched a disney movie, or at least one with a talking animal. It's so sad when a person like you, with your so call "mind" can not comprehend language perspective.
You see what I am talking about is like in the Pixar movie "Ratatouille". We can hear the rat speak English, but to the human characters he's just a squeaking mouse. The rats are not actually speaking english, we're hearing them from their perspective of how they hear and understand other rats.

Enchanted is great, but I've often seen it as a parody of Disney fairy tales, for it mocks many of the tropes. Enchanted would be the 1st Disney movie to point this out, while Frozen would be the 1st Disney fairy tale in its own right to address this.
It's like how Flynn Rider in Tangled would be the 1st Disney character to question why everyone is singing, even though Patrick Dempsey in Enchanted did it before he did. The difference that Patrick Dempsey's character is a human in the real world where musical numbers are not commonplace, and Flynn Rider IS a character in the musical world where it is commonplace. Flynn Rider would the bigger novelty because he actually *lives* in that fairy tale world and tropes like that shouldn't be literal or strange to him.

When you're too pants pissing terrified by a VPN ad to remember you're watching a review on Frozen.
Terry Jones it’s currently playing as I see this comment. And it’s truly fear inducing
*FUN!*
I’ll be honest, I didn’t start liking Frozen until I was older. Let me explain why.
If you watch the scene where Anna “confronts” Elsa in her ice castle, the body language and the way the voices melt together (where Elsa’s is the stronger of the two and is a bit hurried and worried and Anna’s is more comforting and trying to calm her down) it looks like when I have a panic attack and a family member is trying to calm me down. Elsa is panicking and Anna’s trying to soothe her and convince her that they can bring back summer together but Elsa is too wrapped up in the panic to hear her. And then she explodes and lashes out. It looked almost action for action like an anxiety attack. Elsa’s character is like a superpowered, personified version of an anxiety sufferer.
And Elsa ran away because she’d spent her whole life choking down the powers, choking back emotion (which makes the magical ourbursts), and the one time she’s pushed over the edge-people call her a monster and reel back from her. She doesn’t want it for her life, so she runs away to get away and not face the fact that people are afraid of what she is. When she’s alone, she feels liberated and forgets her fear-only to be confronted with it again as soon as someone else is around. It’s that cycle of fear over and over again. And, honestly, I liked having a character I could relate to on that odd level, a personal level-not just in apperance like some Disney princesses.
Also-I liked the “act of true love” as it wasn’t the typical Disney true love conquers all moment but still not a complete surprise. It was just different enough to not be stale.
How do you help someone having a anxiety attack?
I used to sing the duet between Anna and Hans when the movie first came out, and I would take my little brother to middle school while listening to the album.
He began singing this duet with me.
We had a blast until I realized how weird it was for two siblings to sing this love-duet.

Frozen is still a great movie. It's entertaining, visually beautiful, well voice acted, funny, dramatic, relatable, has memorable songs... It's a complete package, in my opinion. And I'll never get tired of Let It Go. It was annoying ONLY when every single person on youtube played it into the ground (not to mention at anime conventions in the karaoke room). The song itself is great and always will be. I remember when I first saw this in the theaters with my fiance. My mouth was slack-jawed and I don't think I blinked once during that song. It blew me away. So, yes, I believe it deserved all the praise it got and continues to get. I had no idea it had gained backlash recently, though. :/

I honestly didn't mind "Let it Go" when I first heard it. It's when they started to over-play it to death, that I started loosing my mind!
Also, unlike other Disney movies, Frozen went into Song every 5 minutes, which also started to irritate me.
That part ruled!

Personally I thought “Tangled” was a much better film, and way funnier! But it didn’t have a catchy, song like “Let it Go” so it isn’t remembered quite as fondly.
I get what you mean in that 'Let It Go' was something that really took off, and for good reasons as mentioned in the review... But honestly, despite loving that song, I'd listen to 'I See The Light' over that one any day. It's just such a beautiful song. Should've taken off more!

How about "I See The Light"? It is honestly one of the most romantic songs I've ever heard.

The romance between Christof and Anna is just utter pointless and you can remove it without hurting the story one bit. It might actually becoming better.
The climax of the entire movie is built around Anna's choice to NOT go to Kristoff. Saying that the Anna-Kristoff romance is pointless is like saying that Frodo is pointless in Lord of the Rings, because he's not the one who ends up destroying the ring.
They spend more time building romance between Hans and Anna. Then for Anna and Kristoff bring a bunch of rock trolls to tell us they should be in love.
How so?
@@lacountess no Anne and hans spend like 20 min and one song of the whole movie together. Anna and kristoff spend the rest of the movie together.
@@SweetLittleKitten15 Anna spends more time with a version of Kristoff who is trying to get rid of her. Only after she begins to feel the effects of Elsa's ice attack does he act like he cares.
If they wanted to make Hans the bad guy why make him act so helpful and concerned in the beginning? Why not drop a hint that it's a ruse. I heard rumors they were planning the story to go differently but changed their mind after they already had animated the early parts.
I still like “Let It Go”. Growing up with Aspergers, I had to spend most of my life pretending to be normal. Then I got my diagnosis and it was finally okay to just let go and be me. So the lyrics to “Let It Go” were extremely poignant to me.
I was diagnosed, too. I gave up trying to be normal when people told me I had to stop playing certain video games, just because they weren't popular anymore. Being normal is seriously not worth it.
Amen to throwing off that yoke. Took me awhile to be ok with my Autism, but being "normal" is dumb. I'd rather be 'differently rational' and explore creativity.
Still find Let it Go a badly placed scene and an annoyingly catchy song, even if the song itself is great. Its the overexposure of it and Frozen as a whole that gets on my nerves.
That's exactly how I feel too; with the Asperger's Syndrome and everything.
Same here

Be Prepared might be better than Hakuna Matata, but Hakuna Matata ist still a decent/good song in its own right. Good enough that it DIDN'T made my list of the top ten worst Disney songs of all time.
Fixer Upper on the other hand didn't just made the list, it was from the get go the clear forerunner. It is the one Disney song I truly hate. HATE!!!! Everything about it is just wrong.

I think it was confirmed that they are Tarzan's parents.
@@JesseGolo well it was ment to be a joke, but ive seen those theories too, but i dont know that theyre confirmed.
Jesse Golo it’s absolutely not confirmed. It makes no sense.
@@JesseGolo no...the creators of Frozen trued to confirm it but Disney fans everywhere who have actually watched both movies know it's bullshit.
Tarzan's mother had long firey red curled hair and his father was brunette with a large LARGE mustache and mutton chops. Anna/Elsa parents were not: brunette mother with shortish hair and no curls, blonde father with smallish mustach and no mutton chops.
The Frozen ship capsized. The Tarzan ship went down in a firey blaze. And they are NOT THE SAME SHIP AT ALL
Tarzan's parents already had a something month old baby with them when the boat went down. Elsa/Anna parents were supposed to only be gone a couple weeks and very ovlbviously did not have a baby with them.
Elsa/Anna parents were on their way to rapunzel's corronation......Punzel's kingdom is nowhere on the path to Central America (while the movie would make you believe it's Africa, Sabor the leopard is ONLY found in parts of Central America)
Tarzan also takes place in the early 1900s while Frozen is set around the 1800s (both you can tell from the dress style) almost 100 years apart.
That theory is disproved within th3 movies themselves.
@@Sterling_Qrow so this is all true, and very very clear to me, but then WHY did the rumors start? Why did disney confirm such an apparent lie?
Hans being evil makes no sense. He saves Elsa from getting killed by soldiers then says later he'd have to arrange for an accident for her
Hold up, actually, objection. What he did to "save her" was the accident - and a brilliant one, too. I've actually analyzed this before.
His goals were to try to kill Elsa and make it look like an accident, so he couldn't just murder her; the guards would notice. He goes and pretends he's holding on to his "I'm not here to kill her" idea because he's gathering data, which he can't do being upfront. Once he's done with the unaccounted for enemy (The Ice Castle's Guard; Marshmallow), he returns to his quest, and awaits his opening. Having found it and realized how dangerous she is, he tries to get on Elsa's good side by telling her not to be the monster everyone fears she is, which of course stops her just enough for her to be vulnerable. He was subduing her, not helping her.
Look at Hans right before he goes to "save" Elsa. He raises an eyebrow, then looks up for a brief moment as he runs. Perhaps realizing that he had a perfect opportunity for a little accident - which he of course had to fabricate through some improvisation after observation. Did you see where he redirected the shot? That was very much planned! He could have easily shot it anywhere else, but you can see the gears turning in his eyes as he points it towards the ceilling, straight into the thinnest part of the ice holding the chandelier. It does look like an accident the first time, but it obviously isn't upon a second viewing with this information. Elsa was going to die right there, but she managed to run away just enough to avoid getting herself completely impaled or crushed by the ice. All things considered, it should have worked. If Elsa was even a smidge worse at running on ice with high heels, she'd be done for. He didn't think of her even trying, though.
@@ViktoriaMagrey But then why not just let the guard take the shot? Then if the guard missed it would have the same result, but if it hit he could pin everything on the guard.
Because it would be pretty obvious to all of the guards that it is a plan to kill her and not subdue her?
@@Nicholas_Steel Wait what? Why would the guards care if Hans was planning to kill Elsa? Isn't that what they were there to do? Or maybe they were trying to capture her, haven't seen the film in a while, but i recall multiple kill shots in that scene. And if he didn't want them to think he was there to kill her, and killing her would put him in a bad light, why would they blame Hans for the guard killing her? And gathering data for what? Why not just let the guard kill her?
The task was to capture her and force her to undo the damage she had caused iirc.
The moment of Elsa saying "then leave" isn't a heal turn of any sort. It ties into her believing that Anna would be safer far away from her; compounded by Anna having just implied that she would be happier that way too.
THANK YOU. Someone understands : )
@Crystal Kanashii I know. Didn't notice typo.
Not just that Anna would be safer far away, but also that Anna has that choice - Elsa is a prisoner of her position, of her powers, of herself, of fear. Elsa can't leave, can't escape, has to remain in her cold, lifeless castle, isolated from her people, but Anna doesn't have to be a prisoner beside her. Anna can escape, can live life, can feel emotions.
Of course, to Anna it's a slap in the face - her longed-for sister exiling her for no good reason - but for anyone who's been paying attention to the movie, it's an entirely natural response.
Anna: I can't live like this
Elsa: then leaf
Well i know BTTF has "make like a tree and leaf" in it, but Frozen? Not the arborealiest of movies... innit?
Be the leaf...
The joke bore fruit.
Elsa: then die
@@yasminetamer8509 OMG I was about to say that.

Another giveaway: If there's a character named Hans in a movie, he's likely going to be a villain.

@@AndreNitroX Yes. They're called The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, Aladdin...
i mean i dont see why ppl have to accept it just bc disney only makes mediocre content. other studios like pixar have been able to make movies 10 times better than disneys stuff, if people dont want to enjoy disney movies for what they are because of that thats their choice.
inb4 “pixar movies are disney movies”: disney owns pixar but disney studios and pixar studios are completely separate and dont share workers
While I don't really hate Frozen as much as other people, movies like Treasure Planet, Beauty & The Beast, Tangled, Princess & The Frog, Lion King, are better films.

I actually like your idea of the movie about "everyone over corrects their 'problems'." I've been part of many online discussions about how the King and Queen only compound Elsa's anxieties and complexes. And its interesting to see you regarding it as part of a larger pattern within the movie. Like, I've always discussed Elsa's social anxieties (cause I have them too) and Anna's social longing, but they've all been as separate entities in a way. Its funny how its only took me six years to see the whole family's problem solving methods are actually the same. But a blanket solution for wholly unique problems sure creates some crazy scenarios.
