Best Cartoon Cosplay Of 2014 Goes To…
‘Best Cartoon Cosplay of 2014′ goes to LowCostCosplay for their flawless recreation of Elsa from Frozen. To any and all cosplayers who’d been hoping to win S&BT’s prestigious (and/or first annual) award…
…LET IT GO.
Problem, Solution
When it comes to hipster hobbies, knitting is second only to micro-brewing. When it comes to cartoon-loving kiddies, Frozen is second-to-none. So according to my iffy, imaginary pseudoscience, that makes Drunk Girl Designs‘ ‘Cold as Fuck’ mittens the nexus (nadir?) of 2014′s pop culture trends.
Curious? Crafty? Cold as fuck? Click here to purchase the pattern.

Laid-Off Animators Get ‘Frozen’ Out Of Bonuses
Animation Magazine reports:
Animation Guild…representative Steve Hulett has revealed that some of the union’s members have been snubbed by Disney Animation Studios.
Olaf ‘Til You Cry
Remember when the first trailer for Frozen came out and we all hated Olaf, but then the movie came out and we loved him? Now I’m just scared. VERY. SCARED.

My Favorite Scene In ‘Frozen’
Via: Ruined Childhood
Ouch.
“The ‘Big D’ is back and adjusted for inflation with TWO princesses, TWO goofy sidekicks, and THREE different orphans! [...] And who could forget the completely unnecessary, completely unexplained, magical troll rocks?”
So many pointed jabs, so many inarguable truths — and I LIKED Frozen!
“When disaster strikes, watch Anna save the day by teaming up with her sister, a merchant, a hot guy and a snowman to defeat villains like her sister, a merchant, a hot guy and a snowman.”
It’s okay. You can laugh. It’s a scientific fact: Multiple Academy Awards > the pain inflicted by YouTube parodies.
Idina Menzel & The Roots Perform ‘Let It Go’ — Using Kids’ Instruments!
Adela Dazeem — er, Idina Menzel — and The Legendary Roots Crew restored the luster to Frozen‘s Oscar-winning ballad last night with a charming, chills-inducing, pitch-perfect rendition of Let It Go — orchestrated with kids’ instruments!
‘Frozen: The Musical’…The Website
Disney has launched a website for their upcoming Broadway adaptation of Frozen. So far, the site is pretty paltry. There’s no art, no info — heck, it doesn’t even use the official Frozen font. So what IS there? A spot to leave your email address for future Frozen updates (and other assorted Disney-related spam). Curious? Click here.

‘Frozen’ Wins Golden Globe
Congratulations to Chris Buck, Jennifer Lee and the rest of the cast and crew of Frozen for winning the Golden Globe for Best Animated Feature. Y’all deserved it!

Finding Frozen’s Easter Eggs
Disney animators have been slipping in visual references to their previous films since as far back as 101 Dalmatians. For cartoon nerds, spotting these in-jokes has become a rite of passage, a fun, little parlor game, and an on-the-spectrum way of showing our vast breadth of needless knowledge and the full scope of our attention to superfluous detail.
With Frozen, the current crop of Mouse House animators continued this time honored tradition, dropping in ‘Easter eggs’ referencing a couple of recent Disney flicks, as well as two nods to one of TV’s quirkiest comedies. Click through to check ‘em out!
New Pics Prove It’s Not Just Facial Features Shared By Elsa, Anna & Rapunzel - It’s A Unified Cartoon Universe!
Remember when the first images from Frozen were released, and we all were like, “Elsa and Anna look just like Rapunzel!”

The ‘Frozen’ Screenplay Is Now Online
The script for Frozen is now online!
If you’re the type of person who hates sitting in a movie theater and being surprised, CLICK HERE.
But please: DON’T TELL ME ANYTHING!
I actually WANT to be surprised by what lies ahead. I’ve spoiled too damned many movies for myself recently. I’m hoping to see this one with (relatively) virgin eyes.
That said, I’m NOT judging you. I know all too well the impulse to read scripts for movies I’m anticipating. It’s just that with Frozen, I don’t even think the screenplay will get across even HALF of what’s in store.
New ‘Frozen’ Trailer Is The Best Yet!
This new Frozen trailer is GREAT. Instead of all the easy (and kinda cringe-worthy) snowman gags that dragged down the previous teasers, this trailer focuses on the STORY. Not only that, it finally tells us something about the Ice Queen herself, Elsa. While Anna looks like a nice, sweet, blandly inoffensive character, I’ve yet to see anything that makes her unique. But Elsa? In this trailer? She’s captured my imagination. She’s the accidental villain. The misunderstood mutant. A wounded soul. The victim of a ‘gift’ she cannot control, one that forces her to flee her kingdom, her family, EVERYTHING.
Frozen’s Marketing Is Hella Sketchy(Or: Why Is Disney Using Hand-Drawn Art To Promote Their CG Films?)
Look at Disney’s Frozen booth from this year’s D23 convention. Notice something odd? 99% of the artwork decorating the booth was done in pencil, yet the film itself is CG!
A similar thing is happening on Disney’s Tumblr. In the week spanning Oct. 9-15, there were eight posts promoting Frozen. Only ONE of those featured a CG still from the film. HALF were hand-drawn character sketches, the rest were film-clips.
Why, if you’re promoting a CG film, would you INTENTIONALLY advertise it using images and art styles NOT FOUND in that film?
Marketing MUST have a reason…right?
‘Frozen’ Getting Icy Stares From The Internets
There’s a rumble in the Tumblr over the following quote made by Frozen‘s head of animation, Lino Disalvo:
