Yeah exactly!!

What Disney have done with Frozen is far from excessive in comparison to what they ordinarily do. Apparently other movies can have parades and stage shows at Disney theme parks or even on Broadway, but not Frozen, specifically. They can have sequel-shorts like this one, but not Frozen, specifically. They can even have multiple full sequels without making people feel physically ill. Disney can continue to promote and exploit other Disney animated features and their characters for decades, but not Frozen, specifically. For some reason this movie about the true meaning of love is singled out as a particular target of hatred, even by–actually, I would say especially by–Disney and animation fans.

I guess it’s not “cool” to even tolerate something that so many of the general public liked (fanboys and fangirls are above those plebeians, right?)–it’s great up to a certain threshold, but beyond that a movie automatically becomes the target of every fan of an underrepresented or underappreciated (in their minds) movie, ever. Instead of actually letting it go, as they hypocritically demand others to do, these people choose to read everything related to Frozen and vent how sick it makes them feel, checking in again and again I’m sure, and nodding in satisfaction as others join in to supposedly validate this strange combination of jealousy by proxy and inability or to ignore something they don’t like.

Exactly JMB. It’s for that reason I find it ironic that Haley Gilbertson has a Belle avatar. :p In the 90’s, the Big Four musicals from the early Renaissance were as overexposed as Frozen is now.

You are right in that Frozen’s grip over pop-culture is a nostalgic reminder of that previous golden era for Walt Disney Animation Studios. As a 90’s kid, I wholly appreciate it. 😀

I personally found the over-saturation to be a nice reminder of the good old days. This is the typical reaction of Disney features that wound up being humongous hits, and it feels not all that unlike the days of the early Disney Renaissance when Menken, Ashman, Rice, and Elton John songs ruled the world with their mighty, ear-wormy grips.

Personally I’m just sick of seeing it everywhere. I actually liked Frozen when it came out, and I loved “Let It Go.” However, it’s now been so overplayed, that if I didn’t hear it again for a couple years, I would be happy. Which is, coincidentally, another song ruined for me by overplay. :p

If I re-watched Frozen, I’m sure I would find it perfectly enjoyable, but the cultural over-saturation has currently left me with “chilly” feelings toward it.
