Revealing these questions at D23 is a good signal for Frozen 3 & 4

<Coming out of Frozen 2 we still had questions, a lot of questions actually. That's just page one. Now you see why it will take two films to answer them> - Jennifer Lee

Now, we all are speculating about the direction these two new movies will lead us, but I think the most interesting aspect is how much they anticipated these questions to the audience. I won't disect them because a lot of people already did that and it would be too long for me, but still, I think it's important to consider what all this might mean.

When it came down to Frozen 2, they didn't anticipate that much to the audience until it was the D23 Expo of 2019 and for the most part they were left mostly for the interviews that these questions (here a ScreenRant article for example):

Here they decided instead to go with a 3 years anticipation about what the two movies will mostly be about. This means they have already an idea of where they are headed, at least premises wise.

I think the most important aspect here is that the questions put on stage connect back to both Frozen and Frozen 2.

F2 already did that by answering a couple of important questions connected to the first movie:

Why Agnarr and Iduna chose such an extreme course with their daughters? The trauma of what happened 34 years before in the Enchanted Forest

Where were the parents headed to which led to their deaths? They were trying to sail through the Dark Sea to reach Ahtohallan and have answers about Elsa powers

Why Elsa was born with her icy powers? As a gift because Iduna saved Agnarr's life when they were little despite being on opposite sides

In that case those were all things connected to the sisters and their parents, basically focusing mainly on the prologue part of F1.

As we can see, the Frozen 3/4 questions extend beyond Anna & Elsa, allowing other important characters like Kristoff, Sven, Olaf, Marshmallow & the Snowgies and even Hans to appear in this list. Yeah, maybe some will most likely be for fun and quickly answered (the iconic Oaken expression for example), but it doesn't sound much logical to spent two movies just to maybe make fun of some characters, that sounds pretty stupid.

I think it's clear the intention here is basically the same when they were making Frozen 2: trying to give a sense of complition and clearness to the saga as a whole, not simply introducing a new situation with new characters.

Even questions related to the ruins in Ahtohallan, the idea of a previous Fifth Spirit, getting a better understanding of Elsa's evergrowing powers and see the challenges Anna will face as Queen are all elements that most likely will allow to expand the world of Frozen beyond the Arendelle and Northuldra borders.

After all, even the Frozen 3 concept art only give us an initial idea of what we will see but, just like the F1 concept always showed at D23 shows us almost nothing about the the plot (just Anna and Elsa skating), it's not all.

Who knows, maybe we will see the Duke of Weselton again? Or the Trolls are in fact hiding something, but maybe not what people has theorized for years?

imo ASPA is one example (of many) of a fic that manages to keep their relationship dynamic correct even in a non-related mAU. Stolen Ice is a little more experimental but also nails it.

but it sounds like you're looking for In The Service Of The Queen or The Queen's Mercy

other non-related STP AUs that are well-loved are AFA and The Legend of Elsa

I'm now idly wondering if there are any circumstances in which a not-related AU of a incest ship would work for me. I generally think it's a really boring thing to do to an incest ship, but... If you look at, for example, not related!Elsanna fics, I would say they tend to have Elsa and Anna meeting as adults or young adults, which is basically stripping away everything that makes their relationship interesting in the movie. If you instead wrote them as childhood best friends who grew up as next door neighbors, would that retain some of what I like about their relationship? I also just think modern day, no powers AUs are really boring unless done right, so keeping Elsanna in the same time and place as the movie would make me more willing to try a not-related AU. Keep Elsa as the princess and make Anna the daughter of a servant, who has a little bit of a hero-worship crush on the elegant, refined, slightly older princess, until one day the castle doors shut and she no longer has any access to Elsa... that's intriguing.

What if there were a magazine publishing house in Arendelle...? 🤔

This was a very random idea, it just came to me because I bought a few magazines featuring my favourite celebrity over the past few days and they inspired me. 😆 Actually I did magazine cover edits a few years ago as well, so this is my second time editing a magazine cover 😁

The picture was upscaled by my friend @virtual-winter , and I removed the background myself 💙

Elsa's Snowflake in Anna's Eyes ❄️

According to The Art of Frozen, Elsa has a "signature snowflake shape."

"If you saw it anywhere in the movie, you'd know it wasn't nature, it was her." — Dan Lund, effects artist.

So, when they pointed out the detail that Elsa's snowflake appears in Anna's eyes as she turns into solid ice, it was like a cruel reminder for Elsa that what she had done to Anna wasn't nature's fault... it was hers.

Though her pupils no longer constrict in the movie, Elsa's snowflakes are still seen all around Anna's eyes!

your fic has ruined me. I am distraught. please keep going

and with the dawn, what comes then?

When the dam breaks, Arendelle faces massive destruction, and Anna has to return home without a sister.

Elsa unfreezes in Ahtohallan to find that she’s still trapped, with no way of contacting the outside world.

As Anna struggles to cope with grief and the sudden responsibilities of being queen of a ruined kingdom, Elsa struggles to break free from Ahtohallan and find her way back home.

Or: AU where Arendelle floods and the ending gets a lot more complicated.

Part Five

Fear will be your enemy.

Elsa abruptly sits up. 

Fear will be your enemy .

Hadn’t she, just a day or two ago, told an icy Runeard that his view on magic was his fear talking? (...A day or two? That doesn’t sound right, but it must be.)

So why is she reenacting her childhood in this frigid chamber? Letting herself be strangled in silence, solitude, and seizing anxiety once again? Is she planning to sit here, curled into a ball, crying, waiting for Anna to rescue her because she’s too scared to stand back up and face starting over?

Anna’s already saved Elsa. It’s why she’s free from frozen captivity in the first place!

And now Elsa’s, what, expecting Anna to burst in, sword swinging and eyes ablaze? To come equipped with a ladder that she’ll lower down to Elsa, then take Elsa’s hand and march her back to the miracle ship that’s somehow forded the Dark Sea when all others have failed and sail happily back home to Arendelle?

Fear will be your enemy, and death its consequence.

Trembling, Elsa unsteadily rises to her feet and balls her fists at her side. Her eyes flicker from the faraway, glowing exit to the edge of the icy platform, calculating the distance once more in her mind. 

Elsa is not going to die here.

Frozen: Winter Festival: A new short? | News

Guyyss we might possibly have brand new Frozen content on the horizon!! A new short could be coming out soon!

All credits go to @/girliesandghouls on Instagram. Today, leaks have come out for some Frozen Dolls on Amazon set for release on September 1st. These are the images released.

These dolls are titled "Mattel Frozen Fashion Dolls". These specific ones are the "Icy Ice Skating" Elsa and Anna. We also have Olaf with an ice cart, Frozen carriage and doll play set, and Frozen ball gown 2 pack.

The details for the dolls are:

This confirms that Frozen: Winter Festival is some kind of feature, most likely and possibly a short. But more on that in a bit.

The new looks:

They look good but I want to look deeper into what their outfits really look like. These dolls definitely give Olaf's Frozen Adventure vibes with the blues and the winter outfits:

For Anna, her hair seems to be fully done and not in any kind of style unlike Frozen 2 when she had braids at the back of her hair. He jacket has the same structure as her OFA one with the collar, sleeves, the waistline and the buttons. She has a black bodice with the familiar pointed down waistline. Her skirt is the gradient of dark blue. With a similar pattern to her Frozen blue skirt. It could be the same length as that. Her boots however are much shorter than the usual high boots we've seen on her previous looks. They even have a fluffy rim around it and laces too. The boots are a purple pink like her cape in Frozen but because it's a doll, it's probably more detailed in the actual short or feature. I absolutely love her look. I love her OFA look so I'm excited for this one too. Obviously it's going to be more detailed in the short because dolls simplify things.

For Elsa, her hairstyle seems to be the same as her Fifth Spirit look. Elsa's dress is giving me more of her dress under her Frozen 2 coat vibe with the lines, snowflake designs and sparkles and her leggings/ trousers. But I think the purple part of her dress is that sequin type look of that frozen 2 dress under her coat. Her dress has an asymmetrical shape to it being lifted from the front. Her previous longer dresses have a train at the back however this dress could be shorter with no train just to show her leggings and also for ice skating purposes, so the train doesn't get caught. Her dress has a blue to purple gradient to it at the skirt and the sleeves like her classical ice dresses as well as the familiar pointed down sleeve ends. Her ice sandals have been ditched for ice heels again which I love. Elsa's cape is roughly the same length as the back of Elsa's dress and has a white to purple gradient to it. The shape seems to be the same as her previous longer ice dresses being from the back or under arms. Her leggings are also purple. Overall I think I love this look. As I said for Anna it's going to be more detailed in the short because dolls simplify things. And I love how Elsa isn't in white because it's not her main iconic colour unlike blue. And purple as her accent colour makes sense as her cape is a bluish purple in her Fifth Spirit look.

To clarify, these looks are the "Icy Ice Skating" looks, not the ball gown ones. The ball gown looks have not yet been leaked yet.

These are the Frozen and Frozen 2 Mattel dolls for outfit comparison:

So yeah we can see that the previous Frozen Mattel dolls have simplified some of the details the actual looks have so it's gone these looks from Frozen: Winter Festival is simplified too.

So with these looks analysed briefly, I'm so excited for their ball gown looks. They haven't had a ball gown look since Frozen when Elsa had her coronation. So just imagine their full length dresses stunning again.

The new short?

So most likely this is from a new short in the works. Some of us probably weren't expecting anything new let alone a short before the big two part movies but some of us were hoping. And looks like it's true. It makes sense to have a short now because Frozen 3 isn't coming until 2026! Some of us were expecting they'd keep the 6 year gap and release it next year in 2025 but they have made the gap 7 years from Frozen 2. So it's great to have another short while we wait.

I believe this short could be out this year and be in front of Moana 2 in November. Mostly because that release date is Frozen's usual release month and Moana is highly anticipated so it's a good strategy to get people to see this short if theatrical. And also because if the short is set in winter, it makes sense to release it closer to Winter time. That's obviously just my guess. But to think that this short is set in winter means it'll give that Frozen and OFA vibe that is iconic to the franchise. I say that because I know Frozen 2 is controversial to the fandom for understandable reasons and with the autumn vibe the theme of change really screams out. So it's nice to be back in the winter element again with the sisters together.

And if some of you believe this is a leak of Frozen 3, I would completely deny that because I doubt we'd get a leak so soon, more than 2 years before it's release date. With all we know of Frozen 3 behind the scenes too, the leaks seem to be tightly sealed because the movies sound big and any details given could spoil it for us of course. Besides a Short around this time makes much more sense.

As for the runtime of this short, that's obviously not known but if we were to guess, it would be 20 - 30 minutes because if any shorter they would only have time for one look. Frozen Fever was 7 minutes and Olaf's Frozen Adventure was 22 minutes. OFA had one main look but Anna's look was slightly adapted for the search for the Olaf scene, consisting of a blue snow hat, her two iconic braids and blue mitten gloves similar to that of Frozen. So it's possible that this short is slightly longer than OFA to have a decent amount of time on both outfits.

When the ball gown dolls leak I'll analyse them too. So keep your eyes peeled.
