Frozen, a world that swept the entire world off its feet and into the icy waters of Arendell back in 2013, has little benefits within our world. Surpassing The Lion King in the number of views, which in itself is a crime to the generations of Disney lovers of the world, Frozen has taken millions of American dollars from the pockets of citizens, either by box office or various Frozen related goods. The franchise that dominated economy of the globe for two years and counting, from costumes to chairs to eating utensils and food products - Frozen has taken over the industries and minds of the world’s citizens. Thousands filled seats of Disney’s live action Cinderella in 2015, yet if you were to ask them, most would say it was to see the next Frozen animated-short, which would only be available before the movie. A clever ploy by Disney, yet again, thousands of dollars were funneled back into this franchise none the less. The inability to call a French Braid by its appointed name and rather as an “Elsa braid”, the excessive number of little children dressed up for Halloween in the same costume, stifling creativity, and hours perched in front of a screen, memorizing line after line of this new Disney sensation is what this movie has caused.
With the overly catchy songs within this one-hundred-and-two minute long film can cause major annoyance, or even possibly threaten your life when friends become overly annoyed with your incessant singing. The songs aren’t that well preformed; the population needs to just let it go. The movie instills the desires to eat excessive amounts of chocolate, which can lead to numerous health conditions including weight gain and Type 2 diabetes in young children, as well as the desire to build a snowman, as the character Olaf is loved by many. When living in the sub tropic climate that is Florida, that desire is transformed into an impossibility, which leads to longing and possible obsessive psychological disorders that can follow these young children throughout their lives.
When children are subjected to this form of “entertainment,” they can easily be distracted from the world in which they live in. Rather than reading, in which was the original escape from the world and held literary benefits, as well as increased potential of brain usage and application within an educational setting, these children become overly occupied with the desire to be these characters. Children would rather live in Arendell than in their own world, wishing for reindeer as pets rather than their dogs, snowmen as friends rather than humans, which creates a veil over their young and inquiring eyes to the beauty and phenomena that is outside the walls of their residence.
Frozen is a created world that has begun to take over our world, and has been doing so for years. Impacting children and adults alike, this work of Disney is the equivalent to a stain on the white blouse that is the planet Earth. Altering desires, conceptions of reality, and lowering faith in the male gender after the occurrence with Hans of the Southern Isles, Frozen holds a power over the masses that should it should not. This creation that so many claim to be a wondrously brilliant and empowering is, in reality, the equivalent to Spongebob’s driving on the television show, hazardous and deadly to not only the viewer, but many more bystanders within life. Time is better spent in life doing thousands of other things rather than watching Frozen. Even feeding the ducks is a far better supplement of time than watching two shrill-voiced sisters come to realize the solution to all their problems is, as in thousands of other movies, love.
