Initial Frozen 2 impressions
- Thread starter RastaMentality
- Start date
lmao. They were already posted when you asked me if I read the OP though...
4 mediocre reviews = 100% at RT. That's how RT works. So far, the impressions suggest somewhere around 80-90%.
I can't wait to see the RT scores to see how this plays out.
hmm the difference in perspective of the impressions actually makes this movie even more interesting to me
You responded to my 50s-60s prediction by asking me how I could've possibly garnered that from the tweets provided so far. I asked you if you read the OP, which showed tweets with mediocre impressions. I literally answered your question. And then you retorted by asking if I'd read the OP, which was puzzling because the OP showed mediocre impressions. So I have no idea what you're talking about.
Yes, there are more positive tweets later on, but impressions have been divisive so far. Some less impressed, some more.
I don't care much. Just noting that your assertion that mediocre reviews would translate to 60% on RT is wrong. But, if it gets outright bad reviews, who knows what'll happen.
Mediocre impressions usually lead to really bad reviews in my experience. Movies like Justice League and BvS got mediocre Twitter impressions. Not terrible; mediocre. And look how they turned out on RT.
Obviously I'm not saying that's what's going to happen to Frozen II, but in my experience, if impressions are less than glowing on a film on Twitter, you're going to see some lower RT scores. Who knows though.
I like Frozen, but I always thought the story was a bit meh.
Frozen 2 sounds like what I'm looking for!

A better soundtrack is not something I expected. I hope I enjoy the story! I liked the tone of the trailers.
It should mean eating oneself, but I don't remember any of that in the original.

Ben Mekler's schtick is sliding some random wild BS into his other impressions.
That and, oddly, I'm getting Pooh's Grand Adventure vibes from it.
Damnit, here I thought Olaf was going to be so desperate he has to eat his own nose to survive
No matter the outcome I'm sure my wife will be down for a dozen-plus showings like she was last time.
A worse plot sounds really disappointing tbh. The initial trailer made it seem like it was gonna be like the How to Train your Dragon the series
People actually liked Frozen's story? I thought it was one of the lamest Disney princess stories. Kinda hard to believe that this one is less interesting. The trailers made me think that this one was going to have a much more interesting story.
Edit- Some of the other tweets seem a lot more positive, so I still have hope that'll I'll like this one more than the original.

The issue you seem to have with the movie is that it's not about video games. Wreck it Ralph 2 is about the internet. From there, you get plots about communicating, being selfish at expense of others, and learning how to deal with different views in life. And Ralph 2 was magnificent in that way.
I think Ralph 2 is amazing because it's nowhere near a safe sequel. It takes risks and actually shows growth for the two main characters. The structure of the movie is non traditional and at times it wanders but in a good way. The main conflict set up is solved pretty quickly and the movie shifts into a character study in a way.
The fact that villain was a person's insecurities personified was beautiful. The movie people wanted with video games references and characters like Felix having a main role seems to be the safe sequel.

I don't think I ever expected to see this movie referenced on this website, but I'm glad I did. Based on the impressions, I can see the connection!
Ehh.
It also kind of rewrote the main two characters.
Not the worst animated movie I've ever seen. Possibly the most mediocre.
Low-mid 70s probably. I'll see it once it's out on Bluray. I love the first film, so this seems right up my alley. Also fucking adore Josh Gad as Olaf.
It was pretty boring in that way. It went through all the expected motions of an internet plot, the most remarkable thing it did was bringing the Disney Princesses together and even that was just "Ok".
My four and a half year old stepdaughter is obsessed with this franchise, so it's safe to say I have some Frozen fatigue going in to this movie (though of course we already have our tickets bought, and we're taking her to a "Meet Queen Elsa" event this weekend).
So I'm not sure what to make of these Twitter impressions just yet. The plot complaints, given how simplistic the first film was in that regard, are a bit discouraging. It being darker but still family friendly is something I can get behind (the trailers already seemed to indicate more peril in general). And the songs being better but also more catchy is probably something I'm going to appreciate in the short term but come to hate long term (I'm so fucking sick of "Let it Go" even though it's adorable when my stepdaughter tries to sing along, y'all have no idea).
I'm gonna be forced to rewatch/listen to songs from/hear about/buy merch from this film for god knows how long, so I guess I was hoping it'd be better received.

The idea that this one doesn't shoehorn in a traditional villain has me way more interested, not gonna lie
The movie is going to be incredible. The stuff I've heard from someone who saw the movie is extremely exciting.
Also, LOL at some of these Rotten Tomatoes predictions. This movie isn't going below 80%. It'll land somewhere between 85%-93%.

While I love my Disney Villains, focusing on the heroes' flaws and vulnerabilities seems like the right move if you want to explore the protagonists more.
There doesn't seem to be a lot of time in these movies for Disney Villains with the types of stories Disney Animation wants to create.

Wow these were hard to read my goodness, I hate when reactions are expressed his way. Talk like a regular person not a fanboy please. Also " best sequel" um, all the Toy Story sequels bruh.
