Happy Siblings Day!

Happy siblings day!

The love between Elsa and Anna is ultimately what makes Frozen so special to me. It is one of the only Disney movies that focuses primarily on a bond between sisters, which is part of the reason it’s so special. My younger sister and I have always been best friends, so I’ve always seen us in Elsa and Anna. When Frozen first came out in 2013, we were 8 and 5, the same ages as Elsa and Anna were in the prologue. I could totally see us at that age playing in a very similar way to how Elsa and Anna did together. When we were younger, we played games where we pretended to be Elsa and Anna and reenacted scenes from the movie or made up our own. More recently, we’ve dressed up as Elsa and Anna to see the Frozen musical together.

Frozen has always been something special I could share with my sister. From the time we were little kids until now, we’ve both loved everything about the movie, but especially the story it tells about Elsa and Anna’s love for each other.

Frozen Through the Years

Yearly Spotlight: 2021

Written by @secretsofthestorymakers

2021 brought the release of several short Frozen books such as the picture book Family Game Night and La Bibliothéque Rose books, 14 short chapter books written in French. In addition, the official Frozen II manga was released. Frozen was also included in the official book of the Ultimate Princess Celebration, Tales of Courage and Kindness, with two original stories: The Unhappy Forest featuring mainly Elsa, and Cloudberries for a Queen featuring mainly Anna.

As COVID-19 restrictions lifted, Frozen: The Broadway Musical opened on West End for the first time and the North American Tour resumed after being shut down due to the pandemic.

In regards to digital content, Myth: A Frozen Tale released on Disney+ as a “flat” version of the original VR short, allowing many more fans to have access to it for the first time. On November 12, Olaf Presents - 5 short episodes of Olaf summarizing other Disney movies - was released on Disney+. Olaf Presents was the result of fans’ overwhelmingly positive reaction to Olaf’s humorous summary of Frozen in the film Frozen II. Finally, to finish out the year, Disney released a new version of the Arendelle Yule Log on Disney+ that was handmade out of paper by visual development artist Brittney Lee.

Ultimately, 2021 came with small additions to the lore of Frozen in the form of short content. Nevertheless, fans were excited by each new addition and wondered what would be next in the future of the story.

Frozen Through the Years

Yearly Spotlight: 2018

Written by @secretsofthestorymakers

For the Frozen Fandom, 2018 was mostly a year of looking forward to Frozen II. From casting announcements to character leaks, 2018 was the first time fans were actually given more information about the long-awaited sequel!

To name a few examples...

~There were several announcements of new cast members that excited fans as they tried to work out who the new actors would play. ~On Instagram, one of the animators announced that the character designs for Frozen II were finalized. ~In an interview with Variety, Jennifer Lee said that Frozen II would focus on Elsa and Anna again, but would be “bigger (and) more epic,” as they were “going to go far out of Arendelle.” ~There was the appearance of a new image on Instagram that showed Elsa and Anna in new outfits in front of an autumnal forest along with text that translated from Russian to “Frozen Heart II.” This particularly excited fans, but many people also dismissed it as fanart at first. Luckily, it was eventually revealed to be a leak from a Russian 2019 calendar where each month featured a Disney film that was scheduled to be released that month.

In addition to all the Frozen II excitement, Frozen: The Broadway Musical premiered in March! It featured 21 songs, 13 of which were not in the original film. The show ran for 26 previews and 825 regular shows on Broadway before closing due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.

Several new books and comics came out throughout this year as well. They expanded the lore of the Frozen universe, particularly with stories about the kingdoms surrounding Arendelle.

Lastly, in November, Ralph Breaks the Internet was released in theaters. It featured Elsa and Anna in modern attire along with all of the Disney Princesses! After the credits of the movie, there was a screen that promised a sneak peek of Frozen II. It played a second of footage from the beginning of Frozen before Ralph took over the screen again, singing Rick Astley’s "Never Gonna Give You Up," effectively Rickrolling the viewers.

Overall 2018 was a big year for the Frozen fandom as fans looked forward to 2019 and the release of Frozen II.

Frozen Through the Years

Yearly Spotlight: 2016

Written by @secretsofthestorymakers

2016 was a BIG YEAR for the Frozen fandom. There were not many big events, but the real-world reach of the franchise itself expanded greatly.

In Disney World, the newly-rethemed Norway in Epcot opened, including the ride Frozen Ever After, the Royal Sommerhus (where guests could meet Elsa and Anna), and a Frozen-themed shop selling everything from plush dolls to drinkware. At Disney’s California Adventure, fans celebrated the opening of Frozen: Live at the Hyperion, a 55-minute show that ran multiple times per day until the park closed for the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.

Sales of Frozen merch were going strong all over the world, to the point where discount shops stocked Frozen items along with the food they sold. Of course, most of the merch was aimed at children, but the Disney Enesco figurines proved to be popular among older fans! In March, Disney in Concert brought songs from Disney classics - including Frozen - to stages in Austria, Switzerland, and Germany, allowing the magic of Frozen to be experienced by whole new audiences. The brand extension Frozen Northern Lights also began in 2016, expanding the lore of our favorite story in the form of 5 books published (4 of them in 2016) and 4 LEGO shorts (though some of this lore was decidedly not canon).

Within the fandom, 2016 was also the beginning of shipping wars; intense arguments over which characters should be together ensued, proving to be somewhat divisive for a previously unified fandom. As the official franchise and the fandom continued to grow, Frozen remained in the hearts of superfans and casual viewers alike.
