Yeah, I agree that it would probably be easier to develop a character in a TV show or a book, I just feel like in Frozen, Elsa practically went from point A to point Z instantaneously. I personally feel like there should be some point in a story where they are at least trying to b better.

I think that Disney already had that < > for the Disney princesses a while ago, so it's not really a new and improved idea. Like, look at Princess and the Frog or Brave. There was no < >, I mean, Tiana was kinda forced into working with him to get back to normal, and in Brave, all the <> were bumbling idiots. For me, it's not like this is a new thing. And I think that the realize for yourself, although not as drastic as Elsa, occurred in every single Disney movie. The protagonists had to find out what they wanted in life and what they had to do to get to that point. Elsa's, she was just going through that phase that most of the other princesses already knew.

Although Elsa did run away to < > her powers, she really didn't until the very end, and the running away to build a castle didn't seem to be any help, other than to show that she knew how to use her powers. I mean, she kind of already knew how to use them, considering she managed to create a whole castle that didn't collapse. But of course, we all know that the castle was just a way to spruce up Elsa's character.

That's the part that confuses me. Like, it's obviously supposed to be bad in this day and age, but apparently when it's put in such a nice dance number, we're supposed to laugh.

I do think that the writers deserve a round of applause, but I think that, in compassion to other films, this one was just way over appreciated, or the other Disney films were underappreciated. It just irritating that people would so blatantly ignore all the other princess films that Disney made and their messages, just because it wasn't, point blank, right in our faces.
