My understanding is that Disney struggled for a movie adaptation of The Snow Queen for decades, and the breakthrough was having two sisters as the protagonists one who would be the Snow Queen that fled into hiding when her powers were revealed.
It seems that fairly strong opening plot was enough to convince Disney execs to proceed and the writers filled in the blanks.
- bombcar 6y agoFrozen makes a lot more sense if you consider the hero AND the villain to both be Elsa. The apparent “villains” in the movie are just plot advancement tools and don’t bear looking too deep at.
- staticman2 6y agoThe movie would work pretty well if Hans was well intentioned and just felt he just had to kill Elsa in the end to save everybody. I think there was an interview where the creators said the real villain is fear- but that's not really the movie they made. They got close to making that movie but blew it with Hans's mustache twirling villain revelation scene.
