[quote=Anonymous]I love Frozen, and esp the song Let it Go.  After Tangled the new Disney Pixar said they weren't doing the same old princess movies anymore and they have followed through on that promise.

Brave was about the love between a mother and a daughter.

Frozen is about the love between sisters.  I have two little girls and I love talking to them about Elsa and Anna and how important sisters are in their lives (speaking as an only child).

Of course romantic love is also important, but we have an entire pantheon of princess-loves-prince movies for that.  These new movies that show the other important relationships in girls' lives are absolutely the right thing for Disney to be doing right now.  In fact, I bet the next movie is about a girl's love for her father.

As for Let it Go in the movie, I don't see it as the moment where Elsa becomes an antagonist.  Her powers were finally revealed against her will and she ran away.  While in hiding, she learned to accept her true self.  She didn't know about the damage she had done to Erendale until Anna came to tell her about it, and even then she didn't know how to fix it.  So it's not like she became the bad guy, or at least she was an unwitting bad guy.

I know some of you may think this thread is over-analyzing a silly children's movie, but as a parent I can tell you kids watch these movies over and over and over and over.  They become ingrained in their subconscious and for that reason, they're probably shaping the future of our society.  So yes, this discussion is important :) [/quote]
