I think I took notes, and they're in a (physical) notepad somewhere.
20150830:
I watched Frozen and WALL-E (2008) today while flying home to California from Minnesota.
[20170307]
Instant Comments:
3a: This opening clicks so much more having seen the movie.
2: Baby Kristoff and Sven.
3a: "Beware the frozen heart"
2: I didn't realize they were in the beginning.
2: Oh right he witnesses it.
3a: I guess technically the troll could have been more clear on what it means to control power.
2: I see... they sort of take the advice too far in regards to controlling her power.
4: I thought the troll said fear will be your enemy. how did they manage to misinterpret his warning?
5: thinking about it. she didnt control her powers but instead supressed them. and I actually think I mistakeningly took the same approach to talking too much in class in elementary school. I tried to supress it versus control it... well not sure what was in my power to control it. but I think perhaps adults around me could have redirected it. my sixth grade teacher gave me time on computers to focus that extra energy
4: kristoff eats the spit out carrot
2: Yeah a bit extreme, but its a story...
2: The mood gets heavy quickly in "Do You Wanna Build a Snowman."
3a: I guess "Do You Wanna Build a Snowman" sounds less sad as just a song.
2: Haha, share.
2: Haha, because I knew to look for it: Repunzel and her guy!
2: "I'm awkward, you're gorgeous. Wait, what?" - Anna to Hans lol
4: hehe outloud
3a: I love "Love is an Open Door" but hate story wise that Hans turned out to be...
3a: Ah she makes olaf at the beginning of "Let It Go"; 4: olaf!
2: Lol, when she releases her cape, it's devilish. 10:07PM PT
3a: I never thought about how connected to the story is the beginning of the song. And that the timing of certain pauses came with building the structure; 4: I think the last time i watched this i realized how much this song tells the story
3a: While this is fictional, Elsa going rogue is why parents shouldn't overly control their kids.
5: hmm how did Elsa get so far away, when she barely left before Anna went after her on horse
2: [the rest of my notes are in a file on my laptop] [20170307: I'm assuming the notes which follow are the notes I mentioned]
4: i left the movie when she enters the shop
2: "Big summer blowout"
2: Reveals he's tall and big. "What did you call me?"
2: "We leave now, right now." - Anna
2: He just ignores what Anna said: "No, I was raised in a castle." [20170307: I realize why, see footnote below.*]
3a: Was going to pause after "Let It Go" and first kept watching to Sven singing "Reindeer(s) Are Better Than People" and then to the conversation between Anna and Kristoff
2: "...What if you hate the way he picks his nose?" "Picks his nose?" "And eats it." "Excuse me, sir. He's a prince." "All men do it." hahaha
5: hahahaha "of the southern isles"
2: "Oh yeah? What's his last name?" "...Of-the-Southern-Isles?"
3a: Haha their conversation. Specifically "of the southern isles"
3b: Resuming.
2: Oh I get it, "I have friends who are love experts."
2: Haha, "Because I don't trust your judgment."
2: Finally we hear his name "Kristoff" [20170307: Though apparently Anna already knew it, see footnote below.*]
2: Aww... "But I just paid it off."
2: "She'll die on her own" - "Sven"
5: haha. who's the donkey? sven. and who's the reindeer?
2: "Turn into a... [stares at puddle] a happy snowman!"
3b: Hehe "Summer." So much word play, no kid would understand...
2: "I'm gonna tell him." "Don't you dare."
2, 3b: [3b: Hehe] "Oh look at that... I've been impaled."
2: hahahahaha "Catch...." Anna drops off the cliff. "Thanks! It's like a crazy trust exercise."
5: smile that was like a crazy trust exercise
3b: She must not want to be alone if she built a staircase for strangers...
5: Olaf takes a minute literally and starts counting
5: "sixty" and Olaf comes in
2: "Hi, I'm Olaf and I like warm hugs!" [20211217: this was when he says it to Elsa]
4: I returned as Anna is trying to climb the mountain (just before Olaf finds a set of stairs)
4: "do you think she knows how to knock?"
2: "I don't have a thick skull... or bones." - Olaf
3b: Ha, man I'm out of shape. (Hes not arranged correctly); "I'm so out of shape"
5: "heads up"
5: hehe "tree" instead of "three"
3b: Hahaha. "I'll distract him while you run" - Olaf to Anna; 4: "I'll distract him while you run"
2, 4: Lol, "Oh, take off your clothes." - troll to Kristoff
2: "I passed a kidney stone." - troll
5: oh, Granpabbie says "act of true love" but the other troll (Kristoff's adoptive mom) suggests "a true loves kiss perhaps"
3b: I dont see why Hans didnt just go with the charade of loving Anna. I suppose then he wouldnt have been able to convince them of having Elsa killed
5: hmm... how does that work, Elsa is queen and Hans claims he is married with Anna who died... are kings and queens not above the law wrt murder and such?
4: oh Olaf explains love saying putting someone else's needs before yours
5: "love is like putting the needs of others before yours" - Olaf
4: then he gives an example
2, 3b, 4: "Some people are worth melting for..." - Olaf
2: Damn, I didn't remember that part; I thought she would be shattered by the strike.
4: oh the storm stopped when elsa thinks Anna is dead
3b: By saving Elsa she saved herself... I somewhat forgot that
4: what's interesting about the movie is that Elsa is kind of the bad guy and she doesn't really grow in any way. Anna just saves herself.
4: oh nvm I guess Elsa grows in realizing how to reverse the winter she cast on Arendelle.
3b: Even Anna's streak of white hair got removed
2: "This is the best day of my life... and quite possibly the last." - Olaf. haha
3b: Oh yeah, the Weselton guy sent out two guys to attack Elsa.
2: Haha, Sven comes out like a car model.
Credits:
3b: Oh I didn't know the story was based on a Hans Christian Anderson story
3b: I don't like this pop version of "Let It Go"
4: the movie closes out with a theme on "Do You Want to Build a Snowman"
3b: Disney+ didn't minimize the credits but the other day iIremember for some movie it did... maybe it depends on if there's a recommendation for another movie. It's likely the credits didn't minimize because of the existence of a post credits scene...
2, 3b: After the credits, the ice monster puts on the crown and loses his spikes. :D
1=20140107, 2=20150830, 3a=20211207, 3b=20211208, 4=20230210, 5=20240608
*[20170307] Remark: Apparently during the sled scene, Anna first yells out "Christopher" before Kristoff corrects her by yelling "It's Kristoff!" Reddit threads assume he introduced himself to her offscreen. This makes perfect sense! Going back to the start of the scene, Kristoff asked, "So tell me, what made the Queen go all ice-crazy?"
(Remark continued...) That meant they must have already talked about a handful of things offscreen. Prior to that question, I originally wondered why Kristoff wasn't surprised when Anna replied "No, I was raised in a castle." After this new revelation, the answer is because Kristoff already knew she was a princess who lived in a castle and he only sarcastically asked her if she was raised in a barn. Anna, however, took the question literally.
