Im Not Sure About A Tumblr Post, But The Directors Addressed This At One Point! It Used To Be On The

I’m not sure about a tumblr post, but the directors addressed this at one point! It used to be on the Frozen wiki. It’s not there anymore, but I have screenshots!

Hey if anyone can help me find the OG post that said Elsa’s power is Magic and Anna’s power is Love, that would be great because I love that theory and I have been walking around with it in my head for years but I feel weird talking about it when I can’t remember where on this hell site it came from

Hi! This is my first time having a tumblr account, but I’ve kind of been lurking for a while! I absolutely love Disney and especially Frozen, and really enjoy writing about them, so I’m planning to post some analyses soon!

List five things that make you happy, then IF YOU WANT TO, put this in the inbox of the last people who reblogged something from you, get to know your mutuals and your followers

@koretoqueen also asked me this :)

1. Disney

2. My family

3. Reading

4. Frozen (yes I put it separate from Disney because it’s that important)

5. Writing

Thanks for the ask! Sorry it took me so long to respond, it was my first week of college last week and it was very busy and stressful!

Ok like as a Frozen superfan I am excited by the prospect of having more Frozen content (and more songs 😍) but as someone who loves the story analysis aspects and themes, Frozens 3 and 4 scare me. I’m so afraid they will do something that will mess up the beautiful story they’ve told up til now. Frozen and Frozen 2 (supplemented by the books and shorts) are one complete story. There are very few loose ends after Frozen 2 like there were after Frozen. All the characters are happy and, thematically, they are where they are meant to be. Even Polar Nights felt a bit forced. Don’t get me wrong, I liked PN, but it didn’t feel like a story that was particularly relevant to the characters’ (particularly Elsa and Anna’s) growth and thematic development. All this to say, I am apprehensive about the prospect of future Frozen movies. Obviously, when it comes time for trailers and promos and eventually release, I’ll be ridiculously excited, but I’m also scared of them ruining it. 😭

Ok I wrote this earlier right after seeing the announcement, but now I’m kind of feeling better. Still scared, but now excited is taking over haha 😂 Thinking of new story and songs and costumes and story and plots is making me very intrigued and I’m really very excited to see where they’re going with the story.

Kind of all over the place, sorry!

Some things never change, Happy 4th Anniversary to Frozen II ❄🍁

Was going to make an OFA poster but I'm running out of time so Happy 6th Anniversary to Olaf's Frozen Adventure as well 🔥

Frozen 3 & 4 Theories and Analysis

So the Frozen 4 announcement

I am cautiously optimistic and here's why - I had previously said that I think they should make 4 movies to match with the seasons and I think that is exactly what they are doing.

3 and 4 will be Spring and Summer, though not in that order necessarily. And yes I know the first movie had brief summer, but c'mon guys we all the first movie was winter! The bulk of that movie took place in winter and that movie explored wintry themes!

Frozen was winter. It explored the dual nature of winter - beauty and danger. How winter can be as much fun as it can be dangerous. How viewing through love or fear can make all the difference. It discussed how to survive the winter, you have to let people in. How love can thaw the cold. How the primary focus during this time of year is to hold onto each other until the warmth returns. It was all metaphorical, but still.

Frozen 2 was autumn and this one was almost certainly not metaphorical. Autumn is considered the transformational season. We are moving from Summer to Winter. Nature is decaying, the harvest has come, and we must release what we no longer need. Elsa transformed and let go Queen of Arendelle for The Fifth Spirit. Anna transformed and let go of Princess of Arendelle for Queen of Arendelle. Olaf literally said that Enchanted Forests are, metaphorically, places of transformation.

Now for Frozen 3 and 4... the narrative, in my opinion, could work with Summer into Spring, but also Spring into Summer

Spring is considered the season of rebirth - the growing fruit that came from decay and death (autumn and winter). Rebirth is healing, murky, and in the beginning it can be difficult. But it also means hope. The air is light. The warmth is coming. Snowbells and daffodils are breaking through the frozen grounds. The worms are waking. Life is returning! To many, this is their favorite season (warm after the cold, but not heavy like summer).

Summer is the season of celebration! Warmth has returned! Life is flourishing! It is so green and so hot that even the nights are a comfortable temperature. All plant-life, insects, and animals are awake! It's time to go on vacation, go to the beach, travel the world! It's a time to be lazy because it is just so hot. In the old days, they valued this season because they had survived the winter! We are alive! Let's party!

So in terms of F3 and F4 (with absolutely no plot beats to go on except for the seasonal metaphors), it could either be:

F3 is Summer. Anna and Elsa have actualized and they are doing what they have always wanted to do! What they were always meant to be! They are killing it as the Fifth Spirit, there is a wonderful peace between the two lands. They are happy... until something comes along to threaten that peace. Something bad enough to shake up the stability they thought they had... leading to F4 with Spring. Whatever they went through in F3, the next installment is the time of healing and hope. But this rebirth is easier than what they went through in F1, because they know who they are now and they love each other all the more.

OR

F3 is Spring and they are appreciating all the fruit that this new world they have created has to offer. It's a difficult peace to be sure. The Northuldra and the Arendellians are still having trouble getting along, and it brings visible stress to the sisters. Whatever happens in this installment leads to the breaking down of something because rebirth is hopeful, but not stable. But it is an aha! moment for the sisters because it leads to even greater stability that can be felt in F4 - the installment of summer and truly the everlasting happiness the sisters and their family and poeples have been hoping for.
