***WARNING! SPOILERS AHEAD FOR BOTH FROZEN & THE SEASON 3 FINALE OF OUAT (ONCE UPON A TIME)***
Frozen. Elsa. Adele Dazeem.
The 2013 Disney film has taken the globe by storm, an ice storm to be exact! *pun intended*
The film was released in theaters on November 27th of last year & by the first weekend made $110.6 million with no signs of stopping. By the end of its theatrical run it grossed well over $1 billon. It is now the Highest-grossing Animated Film of All Time AND the Highest-grossing Film of 2013.
What was the call to this film? Is it because it's a Disney film? Was it because the movie appeals to both boys and girls? Was it the funny talking snowman? Was it the music? OR for the theatre crowd, was it Adele Dazeem?... Oops. I mean Idina Menzel! Me & John Travolta ALWAYS get that name wrong. (p.s. I would never REALLY get that name wrong cause she is a Broadway GODESS!)
I like to think that it was all of that and so much more. The story of two sisters who have so much love for each other that they can break a curse & bring summer back to their country was inspiring. Then add the music of Robert & Kristen Lopez, which includes the song that not only will not get out of your head BUT has won the OSCAR for Best Original Song!

Let's talk about the soundtrack real quick!
I have never listen to an Disney album has much as I have this one. The songs are a strong balance of Broadway & Pop. "Let it Go" has not only won an Oscar but it has made onto the pop charts (NO I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT THAT STUPID DEMI LAVATO VERSION EITHER.) & what Disney song can you say that has done that!
Disney Theatricals announced a Broadway show to grace the great white way sometime within the decade. Plus a Frozen on ICE! tour was announced to be happening in the next few years.
Stores can not keep Frozen merchandise on the shelves. People are making a ton of money on eBay selling anything Frozen related. AMERICA IS IN A FRENZY! WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?! Sorry. #1stWorldProbs.
Now comes the OUAT section...
ABC's Once Upon A Time will be introducing & including Elsa, Anna, and Kristoff in the first half of season 4 airing this fall! The actors who will be portraying Anna & Kristoff where announced this past week.
Here is a link to the casting announcement:
