No offence to ANY of you guys, but Frozen in Britain is considered really sad (or BANES&wilts, anyway). Anyone who likes Frozen gets MASSIVELY bullied.
Oh, and by the way, my opinion is that frozen is the most pathetic film ever made.

That's rather hyperbolic, assuming that by 'pathetic' you mean 'miserably inadequate'. It isn't even close to being the worst Disney film, much less the worst of any film ever. I suppose a lot depends on the eye of the beholder, but it doesn't depend that much -- the most pathetic film ever made would not have been a blockbuster, gotten the highest gross profits of any animated film ever, received positive worldwide attention, or picked up an 89% rating at Rotten Tomato, and 7.8 stars at IMDb.

If by 'pathetic' you mean 'arousing pity, especially through vulnerability or sadness', while it is successful in that regard, there's too much comedy to really make it as tragic as it might have been. Plus, it has a happy ending. If you know that all of the protagonists end up living happily ever after, that pretty much negates any bad stuff that might've happened before then.

It's overrated and cliché, but I wouldn't go as far as saying it's 'pathetic'.

As I clearly explained, I said that its MY OPINION.

Now, now, no reason to be ashamed of frozen. I'm almost 18 and I think it was a spectacular movie. It reminded me a lot of my childhood, as I grew up to disney movies like The Lion King. Let it Go was catchy and enormously popular. Any of the bullies you mentioned that say otherwise can check out the youtube video, which has more views and likes than any of them will ever have on any and all of the videos they make combined. I'm not one of those hyper fans, but that doesn't mean I don't think it was a solid 9.5/10 movie in my eyes. Sometimes you need a break from the R rated action movies, and I think a good disney movie that is actually uplifting (contrary to most movies these days) is a great way to get that break.

You took the words out of my mouth (Or my fingers.), Skar. I do like Frozen, and, yes, there ARE some cliché bits in there, but there's a lot of original ideas, too.

QuoteAs I clearly explained, I said that its MY OPINION.

Okay, we respect that. But, to me (I'm sorry for saying so if it offends you), you're bashing Frozen pretty hard, and maybe because you think that we would bully you? (Trust me, that's not the case. I would know, having posted a Twilight topic.)

The Skarzs

I'm holding back my tongue on that subject. . .

Hm. I have seen Frozen now. It was a pretty good movie.

Though I think the king and queen's deaths were unnecessary. I think it would have been much more interesting and original (Disney seems to have a habit of killing parents) to have Arendelle be a barony (or something) and the king is ill, forcing the baron to act as refer because he's next in line.

I found it interesting that Elsa was kind of both a hero and an antihero- she wanted to be the former, but lost control and became the latter.


Yay. Now I'm not the only person who hasn't seen Frozen.

(I don't really see what all the fuss was about, Frozen was ridiculously popular for such a long time. Good movie, but I don't think it's THAT good.)

 I never saw the movie, but it's no surprise the parents died  :P Mark my words, they're going to find a way to get the classic Disney themes into those new Star Wars movies...

Cornflower MM

Yes, Disney has a bad habit of killing parents. Gotta agree with you there, Rus. *Doesn't have much else to say on the subject*
