Everything We Learned From The 'Frozen 2' Trailer

Oh boy, I finally get to talk about Frozen 2!

I've been dying to write articles about this animated classic ever since the first one came out, and finally, I get the chance!

Boy, do I love 'Frozen'.

Disney

The characters, the plot that's full of twists and turns, the songs (oh god yes, the songs).

Honestly, it's one of the best movies I've seen in years.

So obviously, I was sad when it ended.

Disney

Not that it finished on a cliffhanger or anything, I just remember the movie ending and me thinking:

"That's it? I don't get to enjoy any more Frozen?" And I couldn't, because there was none.

And for a while...

Disney

The world and I sat, depressed. Where would we go? What would we do?

A world without Frozen just felt lifeless, without big awesome inspirational music numbers where people's hair morphs through their arms.

We got a couple Disney movies...

Disney

Big Hero 6 which was... okay, a couple Pixar flicks and live action remakes. Honestly, the closest thing that felt like Frozen was Moana, which was pretty good.

But it was no Frozen.

Well now...

Disney

The clouds have parted. Rays of a forgotten sun beam down brilliantly on a wanting world.

We look up collectively, our eyes straining against the shining luminescence of it all...

There's a trailer for Frozen 2.

Cue applause.

Disney

After watching it (okay, I watched it four times) I think I can officially determine that I am in fact excited.

Seriously, I can't wait for this thing to come out in November.

But let's examine what we know.

Disney

Alright, so the first little bit of the trailer is Elsa attempting to cross a raging sea with her ice powers.

We saw a little bit of this in the teaser. Let's just say... it does not go well.

Then, we see this:

Disney

A water horse.

She is plunged into the water and suddenly, it appears in front of her. It and Elsa exchange a glance and then fwoosh! It disappears. Will it lead her to the shipwreck of her parents?

We see some characters return...

Disney

Besides the main cast, we know now that the trolls will be back. Specifically the troll... king? Leader? Chief?

Whatever, he's back and he's narrating the entire trailer. Moving up in the world.

He starts by saying:

Disney

Elsa, the past is not what it seems.

And then we see this shot where a glittery pony dances around Elsa. This movie is targeted at little girls, you say?

But seriously, I'm getting a very horsey motif.

Then come the instructions.

Disney

He tells her to go north to find the truth about the past. I wonder which past he's talking about.

Her parents? The origin of her wicked cool ice powers?

There is some talk of enchanted lands...

Disney

And some more talk of "the unknown".

During the narration, we get some beautiful shots as well as some sweet action sequences, like this one where Anna and Olaf fly down a waterfall in an ice canoe.

Just as he says "be careful".

Disney

Suddenly we get this scene with all this pink fire.

Do I smell a possible foil for ol' Elsa? A Fire to her Ice? Hey, maybe there will be a song of fire and ice!

He talks about how they feared Elsa's powers.

Disney

The trailer is speeding to an end now, so they're really showing off some beautiful animated shots.

I honestly think this movie is a shoe in for the Animated Picture Oscar.

And he ends the trailer with...

Disney

"Now we must hope... they are enough."

Ooh boy, I've got Goosebumps! Why isn't it November yet? Let's just skip summer and get to mid-fall so I can get off this dirty hype train!
