Still won't top the Lion King Broadway.
That much I'm practically certain of.

I favor treatments like this instead of sequel after sequel after sequel.

I hope its nothing like the Lion KIng Broadway, the most disappointing show I've ever been to.
Yes. This is a must

He also said before this latest film revival that they were finished with the crappy straight to dvd sequels. I prefer new ideas and movies but if they can make a movie worthy of the original then go for it. I just hope they stay away from the straight to dvd crap like they said.
Perfect choice.
Amen. I'd rather re-watch the original animated movie in 480p than sit through that again. It was also more of "Scar: The Musical" than it was Lion King.

Nice thread title, if intentional.

Let it Go would be a perfect ending for the 1st act since it's basically Defying Gravity-lite, but it wouldn't work since it's too early in the story.
And the latter part of the film actually has less memorable songs compared to the first half.
I hope the Broadway version comes up with Part 2 of "Do You Want to Build a Snowman" towards the ending, something like this, but something better:

The gift that keeps on giving
This pleases me
I doubt she has the voice to do Let It Go 8 times a week anymore, unfortunately. She fucked up her voice in Wicked and I don't think it would be up to it.

And still no "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame".
I am disappoint.

nice. Actually, I've wanted something like this to happen but couldn't have imagined it happening so soon. It's the perfect movie for a real life showing (i guess they planned it all along with all that singing, huh?). Wondering how all the ice will look.
Hope it comes to Hamburg, Germany, in a few years (like the lion king).

Wow, I'm curious to see how they will do "Let it go" sequence on the stage.
You mean cold. Does it bother you, the cold?

It feels cool, because the cold never bothered me anyway.

Were not demanding speed, were demanding excellence. he said into a burlap sack, which he promptly threw into a river with an expressionless look upon his face.
I'd love Julie Taymor to do this and bring Nordic culture back into it. I loved the chanting in the beginning which just... promptly went away and didn't really come back until the end.

Nice timing, my Facebook status three days ago: "I've never really been into stage shows, but when Disney does the inevitable Frozen musical (because they have to, right?), I'll be paying an embarrassing amount of money to be front and center."
Hopefully they'll have a song or two in the back half this time :lol

Yeah. From the first song I was quite theatrical and in my head I was already picturing how it would look on stage when I watched the movie from the opening with the men cutting ice to a stage rising from nowhere for 'Let it Go'. It's not going to be as innovative in its own right as the Lion King was. When is Aladdin hitting Broadway a again?

I'm a big theatre lover, and loved Frozen, so this is really cool. It'll be really interesting to see how they adapt some of the more fantastic sequences to stage.
What's the issue dear?
Too true
Ugh, they really needed to close out with something like this to bring it full circle.
"Will Elsa's hair be clipping through her arm in real life too"
That's exactly what my wife said after watching it too. I even thought Tangled was far superior.. but I did enjoy it.
About that...
