Jared, Jared, Jared. You must not spend that much time with young girls. For weeks, I have heard girls all around me, everywhere, singing this song. When we went to see the movie for the second time over the weekend, there were girls singing along in the theater. Later at a family bowling outing, girls were singing along when it was piped in over the speakers (one girl was singing while twirling around, with her arms out, looking at the ceiling -- it was adorable).
Yes, Idina Menzel has a stupendous voice, but it's really not an "unsingable" song. Next time you're in the grocery store and they play it, pay attention in the aisles. You'll probably find at least one young girl perfectly able and more than willing to carry the tune.
I also agree. My school is a very artsy community and the performing arts is dominant. There are several girls that can pull off singing "Let it Go" in their own way as well as girls I know that can because of vocal training. I cannot pull it off quite as spectacular as Idina Menzel, but you can't expect me to also sing little Anna's part in "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" Improvising is just as good as singing the real thing, plus the soundtrack is auto-tuned with a professional orchestra. Playing Let it Go on my guitar is not the same. I found Anna's songs are easier to replicate.

We finally found the 4 dolls. I hate how Disney puts out the merchandise long before the movie. Didn't really find anything after seeing UP.

Where do you buy your Disney DVDs? We do not have a Disney Store so I would have to order Frozen if I want the lithos. Would I have to pay shipping??

I typically purchase Disney movies at a fair price from Sam's Club/Walmart or Target.

Suffice it to say I'm a tad confused by all the love.
Good! I'm not the only one! The songs were beautiful, but the movie not so much.i imagine I would have loved it as a broadway show, but for a movie I found it lacking... Something.

I had a few issues with it ... overall I did enjoy it and cinematically as well as musically it was stunning. I just found certain things to be "off" and they really detracted from me loving it.

We tried to get the WM version with an Elsa figure. They didn't have it, of course. I guess we will have to keep the no extras one.
I heard the blu-ray features weren't great.

From Variety:
Frozen’ Becomes the Highest-Grossing Animated Film Ever
Disney’s animated tentpole “Frozen” has continued its wildly successful run in international markets to become to biggest animated pic ever, bringing its total to $1.072 billion this weekend after opening in its final market, Japan.
The competition to beat was another Disney/Pixar title, “Toy Story 3,” which grossed $1.063 billion in 2010. “Frozen” earned $398.4 million domestically and $674 million internationally to take the title.
In its run overseas, “Frozen” has become the top Disney or Pixar film in 27 territories. It has grossed $50.5 million in Japan thus far, and also broke into the top ten films of all time globally at the box office this weekend.
It was released more than four months ago in the U.S., where it had a late November opening. Since then, it has enjoyed both critical and major financial success, becoming the first billion-dollar film from Disney Animation Studios. It won two Academy Awards as well, one for best animated film and the other for original song.
The 3D fantasy-comedy was directed by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, and inspired by Hans Christian Anderson’s “The Snow Queen.” It was released on DVD and Blu-ray March 18.

Agreed. I think it should be based on tickets sold.

1. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs ($853 million)
2. 101 Dalmatians ($782 million)
3. The Lion King ($697 million)
4. Fantasia ($650 million)
5. Jungle Book ($576 million)
6. Sleeping Beauty ($569 million)
7. Shrek 2 ($556 million)

I agree, Melanie. Nothing's completely accurate, but that would come closest. Adjusting for inflation creates ludicrous popularity rankings (for proof, see #2 above!!).
