Um, with all the dads around here that are wrapped around their little girls’ pinkies, why don’t we have a thread on Frozen 2? :p

We’re the first ones here for the 6:20 showing.

I was just telling my daughter when we get back from vacation, we’ll go see it.

Yes but let me warn you, you’ll be singing the songs for weeks. It will look a little weird since the original movie came out a few years ago.

I just got that damn “let it go” song out of my head after all this time...

so no, no no no thank you.

Haven’t seen the first one yet. Do I need to, to understand the plot?

I think so.

Although, there’s somewhat of a summary of the first one partway into the second. But it (the recap) probably wouldn’t make much sense without seeing the first.

I will say Kristoff’s song in this one may be the greatest song in a Disney animated movie, yet.

My daughter saw it with the Girl Scout troop, so bullet dodged!

I thought it was really good. Definitely darker than the first one, but that fit the characters being more “grown up” in this movie. Girls loved it and I’ve got “Into the Unknown” stuck in my head now.

So, you finally let it go?
The song never bothered me anyway.

Ha! Good one.
It didn’t bother me the first time I heard it, but when it was played over and over and over again at our house it became madding.
 
I went with my Granddaughter on Saturday. We went to #1 and at this point I am very happy she was is willing to spend time with her old, unhip, very opinionated Papa! I enjoyed it, the animation is astounding!

She is 16 now, I do not get much time alone anymore to influence the child's mind positively. I will not waste the opportunity.
 
I took my kids when Frozen came out. My wife took my two daughters to Frozen 2 last Saturday (boys didn't want to see it). My girls liked it, but my oldest daughter said she didn't think it was as good as the first one. My youngest daughter was too young to go to the first one, though she has seen the DVD (a lot!), and she thought it was just as good.

We are debating taking our daughter to see it. She is 3. I’ve seen the trailers and read reviews. How “dark” is it? Me and my wife watched The Lion King to see if we were going to let our daughter watch it and I’m thankful we didn’t. She wouldn’t have handled parts of it very well.

Did she watch the first one?

...and did you look at the Parent’s Guide on IMDB? It lists out several things (and the spoilers are too much of a spoiler if you want to look at them).

I think some of the dark/intense stuff might be missed by a 3yo, where it’s more emotional that visible. It’s hard to put yourself in the mind of a 3yo, but the rock monsters might be scary? Or explain it ahead of time?

There’s a scene where the forest is on fire and many of the main characters seem trapped and trying to escape. Not sure how she’d deal with that. Something else you could talk about ahead of time?

She has watched the first one about 100 times so far. I’ll believe I have all the songs memorized as much as she does. I have read the IMDb review and also the Focus on the Family review. Though I would ask other people ahead daughters or granddaughters her age to see what they thought. Thanks for the insight. I know there were rumors of certain things before the movie came out that luckily turned out false this time.

I took my almost-3 and almost-5 year old. Anything dark was missed by the youngest and elicited one single “ok, that’s creepy” from the eldest. And nothing that I would have had to explain to my children growing up in a Christian household.
 
So I just watched this with my kids and it was definitely more grown up than the first one.


Was anyone else waiting for Captain Planet to show up?
