This movie is really an moral story for kids who still believe in fairy tales, but anyways this is how Disney made the film. They skim-read "The Snow Queen" by Hans Christain Andersen and just basically discarded to make Jennifer Lee to write the script, so they adopted from story-to-film just so to make it 100% cute for my mom to love it. I know this film is loosely based on the fairy tale, is because I already read a story last year and it came from the big purple book with over 969 pages of Andersen's Complete Fairy Tales. The songs burst into my mind like an never-ending Broadway musical kiddie-style, but the song "Let It Go" is very popular although it also played at the end credits.
This literally gave me ideas about what to do with my story taking place and what ifs. For example: "What if the young woman had a girl with powers inherited from her 'boy of the dreams'?" The answer: Same story, more YA and darkness, less ice but the ending was supposed to change completely once when I write the end of Part 1 Act 2 of Imaginary Friend Revealed. The girl never saves the kingdom because she had died, not knowing what to make control of this. And plus, why did the tragedy transformed into a complete "happily ever after" cliche? At first, my peers said "That was very sad." but then, when I saw the movie, the plot changes paces and the events go around from one shot to another, it never predicts to me it was like a book unread and it was very suprising that it didn't turn out to be sad, but instead Elsa cried to warm her kingdom and melt all of the snow away. And the cheesy snowman was named after the count from "A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket".
I like the film, even though it was made for kids, I still remember how to compare and contrast between a literary piece and film. For example: I love The Lightning Thief book version better than a boring cheesy family-friendly film, I like the movie Contact better than a novel, I had never read Pride and Prejudice but I already saw the sappy 2005 film in like so many times that it made me a bit irritating, or I already read 2001: A Space Odyssey before like when I was in seventh grade, but I never got to watch the movie. For more information of Comparing-and-Contrasting between a literary piece and a movie, this is what reactants surrounding me saw: In The Great Gatsby, in the book, Gatsby was very darkening that the girls from English class sophomore year were like "Ugh, I want a handsome version of it." In the film (the 1974 version), Gatsby had changed his character to very handsome-like just so that they were like "Yeah, I like it!" I believe the mansion is very dark in the book, but in the film, it was very brightened. In The Lightning Thief, the people did the same reaction as I did. Simone said that it was the worst film ever and Lauren was like "No! It never happened, for the sequels are going to be for the better or for the worse." I guess the sequels are going to be better, but in The Sea of Monsters, Annabeth's hair was now blonde and it was starting to pick up to where the book series was at. According to YA Book Queen, she watched the movie version first before she read a book version. When she read a book version of the Lightning Thief, her perspective completely changed. Also, I watched Ella Enchanted the movie first in the late 2000s like when I was turning 14 in 2010 before I read a book version of it in the summer of 2012. I loved the movie back then. The book version of Ella Enchanted completely changed my perspective that I was like "Hmmm, it was compared to the movie. That was different from what I expected it to be." If I dare watch the movie version again, I will be like "Nah, that was way too cheesy for me to watch. It's just for little girls who loves Disney princesses so much." Miramax skim-read it, discarded it and made it into yet another boring cheesy family-friendly film as much as the whole entire High School Musical series. They murdered it for heaven's sake, shame, shame, shame on Miramax, Miramax, Miramax.
There are some complete changes of some literary pieces. In Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame, the Disney company skim-read a book by Victor Hugo and discarded it to make a movie suitable for kids and as a result: they completely changed the ending. Disney made the Little Mermaid to do the same thing to create. I hate happily-ever-afters, even with Twilight. Twilight was all about Bella falling in love with a sparkling, wet, hairy vampire named Edward; in the end, they got married, had Renesmee, had Bella turn into a vampire and save the state of Washington in a lame and most annoying pretendable way. My mom told me not to read any paranormal stuff, but I am so glad I never read it is because Twilight Saga by Stephanie Meyer was a bad reputation of Washington state, what do you expect? Nobody in the saga died. Sorry Twihards, you better read Maximum Ride instead and just get it over with. You will change your perspective completely, like YA Book Queen did when she read the Percy Jackson series. I already read The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Anne Brashares and it was like a better story than Twilight. I just can't wait for the sequel to rent from the library, though I never saw the movie before but I had seen the movie trailer just so to promote me to get into this book over last summer. My sisters hated it, but I love it. It's really a fun read to enjoy.
Back to the movie review, in conclusion, what I enjoyed the most about Frozen is very catchy and so classy enough to have autistic people, trusted grown-ups and young kids to go sit down, relax and watch the show to enjoy. 4/5 stars. Seen on January 10, 2014.
