Looks like it's gone up to 74 now. I see it resting somewhere in the 70's.

I kind of had a feeling that would happen, and have no surprise that it was in Alabama.

Haha, that's great!

Heh, makes you wonder how people will react if Frozen 2 really does make Elsa a lesbian. I hope it happens only to see the angry reactions from Christian soccer Moms.

Russia is considering banning the film because of the gay character.

Meanwhile here's the new music video of Ariana Grande and John Legend performing the title song.



And Josh Groban's version of the new song "Evermore":

Russia still hates gays? Weird, I thought they were ok with homosexuality. This isn't like the middle eastern countries that burns people at the stake if they're gay.

Russia won't ban the film from the country, but anyone under the age of 16 will not be admitted to see it in a movie theater.

What does being over 16 make a difference? Goddamn, now I REALLY want Frozen 2 to make Elsa gay.

Here are some highlights from the soundtrack:

Russia absolutely hate gay people, to the point of making it illegal for gay parents to even be near their children cause "promoting homosexual propaganda" is a crime.

Dean Richards from WGN News made fun of the whole gay thing by showing a video of Russian guys dancing and saying that they think that's okay but two guys dancing together (and they probably blew it out of proportion anyway) is not okay. I just burst out laughing when he said that.

You probably wanted that to happen regardless don't worry half the fan base wants it.

Alan Menken gave his thoughts about LeFou's sexuality.

You know, I don’t see him pining,” Menken told ComicBook.com. “To me, he has always been look(ing) up to Gaston, in a nerdy kind of way.

“I know there’s been this whole discussion, which is to me, absolutely absurd. It’s just nuts. As far as I can tell, some journalist in England decided to make it his cause célèbre to push this agenda. And it’s really not really part of the movie in any overt way at all...any more than it was in the original. To me, it’s an utter non-issue. And I’d appreciate people realizing that it’s a non-issue because it’s just silly. But that’s journalism, and I understand.”

Malaysia tried to have the brief gay scene cut from their cinemas, but Disney decided to delay the film's release in their country till March 30 in case the censor boards decides to keep it in the movie.

apparently Emma Watson can't sing and that is one of the biggest criticisms besides a pointless remake.

Shesus. Why didn't they put Ariana Grande in there as Belle? Emma Watson has no business as her.

I'm kinda torn on that one. They're both great actresses in my opinion, but I feel like Emma fits the role more since Belle is very similar to Hermione. For one thing, they're both major bookworms and what I can tell Miss Watson is a lot like that in real life. I don't really know enough about Ariana Grande, except she has a lovely singing voice, which would definitely be of benefit in honestly just about any Disney princess role (animated or otherwise)

I won't be seeing the film until tomorrow, but Doug Walker has already seen it. He LOVED the original according to his Disneycember review. I only saw a few minutes of this video, so there wouldn't be any spoilers. He starts the video by rapping about how much he HATED this one.
