1. Anna's motivation is pulled out of nowhere.
In writing, there's the thing called set up and payoff. Throughout the whole first sequence of the film, which is essentially Anna's entire childhood, not one instance indicates that Anna would be a romantic. Her motivation is so specific, bizarre and contrived. I know some people are like "it makes sense that she'd want a companion". Yeah but that specific type of companionship? No, it makes no sense that she'd specifically want a "beautiful stranger tall and fair".
If the writers gave a crap, Anna's main desires would be to a) confront Elsa and try to understand why she's been shut out for so long and b) just experience the outside world in general, not this tacked on romance nonsense. When Cinderella, Jasmine, and Rapunzel first set foot out of their isolation, Liebe was the farthest thing from their minds (it would come later but it wasn't the focus) they were too busy enjoying the freedom they've been deprived of their whole lives, because they were written like freaking normal people.
oder if the writers really gave a crap they would have at least tried to set up her motivation properly. All they had to do was write a quick ten-second scene early in the movie where Anna's Lesen a romance novel oder romantic fairytale, that's it. At least then it wouldn't be such a bizarre ass-pull on the writers part.
2. It's extremely heavy-handed and annoying.
As Cheshire Cat Studios sagte in their Frozen analysis "[Frozen] was so desperate to let us know what it was doing". Cue Anna going on and on about how "it's true love" in response to both Elsa and Kristoff saying "you can't marry a man Du just met". (no crap Sherlock) This whole aspect of the film could have easily been cut out. Hell, Hans could still be the fake-out Liebe interest without all this obnoxious dialogue.
But of course, the writers had an agenda to push. It's just like Belle's inventing skills in the 2017 remake. It has no impact on the plot, no impact on the main relationship (Belle/Beast) and it's only shoehorned into the film only once and never brought up again. In Frozen, it's shoehorned multiple times rather than once but it still has no real importance to the insgesamt narrative. In fact, Anna's still implied to "live happily ever after"....with a man she just met. (Kristoff) If they really wanted to drive the message Home then Anna would have just stayed single, but like i said, the writers don't truly give a crap.
3. It mocks and misrepresents the older DP films.
Disney Fans have explained endlessly why this aspect bothers them, we won't get into it here.
So yeah, just thought I'd clarify why it irritates me as well as other people, it's fundamentally bad character Schreiben and it's annoyingly and condescendingly "in your face". Honestly, I kinda feel bad because the revival era gets so much flak already. lmao
1. Belle
Belle has a really good relationship with her father. They are never shown fighting oder arguing. Although the villagers think both are odd, Belle and Maurice are satisfied to have each other.
When Belle sees Philippe coming Home without her father, she is worried and boldly goes to the dark forest searching her father.
Entering a scary castle, Belle finds her father imprisoned in a cold jail. Then, she declares to take Maurice's place as the prisoner although she will spend her entire life in the gloomy schloss with a horrible, monstrous Beast.
Many days pass. Belle and the Beast...

Well, what were our Merida - Legende der Highlands heroines and Heroes without their friends? They would be forced to provide the comic relief themselves. Not that some of them wouldn’t be able to step up to the challenge (*cough* Flynn* cough*), but as a general rule, it’s the sidekicks who provide the laughter.
Pocahontas is not listed in this category. I considered adding “Percy’s bath”, but since the score is very short, it wouldn’t have been fair.
9. Princess and the Frog: I have my problems with most of the songs of this movie, but “Gonna take Du there” might be the worst of all of them....

Don't they look so pretty together? Only one shines out from the rest, however.
My lineups are getting very good responses. Something that, in all honesty, I didn't expect. Since when have I been funny? I usually get a one-liner in there a few times a year, let alone a few times a paragraph.
Yes, I'm biased. Yes, I swear. Yes, I like a joke. They're usually unfunny and stupid, but they're jokes nonetheless so treat them as such.
What's that? I should shut up and start the countdown? Whatever, let's go for it. I have nothing to better to do except wait for a YouTube video to Upload anyway.
