... I'd say something witty, but that sums it up. Frozen is Wicked. Elsa, the queen with ice powers, is Elphaba, in both character and voice. Anna is basically a depowered Good Witch... The songs resemble songs form Wicked, (Let it Go = Defying Gravity), they even have their own version of the munchkins.
Don't think that I'm saying Disney is just copying Wicked, I only just now noticed the similarities, and find it more amusing than annoying.
Frozen is another great movie by Disney, who have officially hit their stride again. Go see it.
I can nary think of anything negative about the film... Maybe a few minor gripes, but nothing that detracts from the film. Even the comedy relief character Olaf isn't annoying, and is even useful in the film, with some decent gags.
The only other thing of note here is that it seems like Disney tried to avert as many tropes as possible in this film, or at the very least toy around with them, which lies in stark contrast to their older works. It works well to the film's advantage, though it made predicting a couple twists easier since they went a little too heavy on it... But that could just be because I'm crazy and read TVtropes to relax.
It is somewhat hard to place where all my favorite animated movies would go in a list now... I'm gonna have to figure out some kind of system...
