Agreed. I thought Frozen was a better musical too (although I love the music in Tangled).
I watched the blu-ray today, and I didn't realize that there was a 'disclaimer' in the end credits that Kristoff's comments about "men who eat their own boogers" are his own and don't reflect The Walt Disney Company.![]()

If only Disney had postponed the release of its Blu ray by a couple of weeks; Frozen would've made 400 mil domestic by now.

I think Disney is pretty happy with what they have.....![]()
I wonder what their initial "internal" expectations were for Frozen......
like, were they just aiming for $200M domestic?
did they know if was going to be this big?
and, I wonder if they ever expected Elsa to be the more popular of the sisters.![]()
I would assume they were thinking Tangled numbers....
I doubt they had ANY CLUE of what it would end up doing.
My kid was watching that in the other room...we heard a scream and she came running in shouting FROZEN WON FROZEN WON FROZEN WON!!!!!!!!!

I think Tangled numbers was expected. Just from the shortage of merchandise it's clear they weren't expecting this blizzard of success. Disney actually "originally" produced less merchandise for Frozen than for Tangled or Brave, as Tangled merchandise did well, but nothing exceptional, and Brave stuff didn't really move well at all. This created an instant shortage of Frozen merchandise that still still continues to this day as Frozen shelves at Disney stores are still bare, it sells as fast as it comes in.

oh, I didn't know that about the merchandising.
and speaking of merchandising, judging by some of the early products that were released, it does seem like Elsa was going to have silver/white hair, and they must have changed it to platinum blonde late in the process.

omg hahahahah
The weird thing is the Elsa actresses at the Disney parks have WHITE hair, which is wrong. I can see how early products might have the wrong color hair but certainly they knew what color hair Elsa has when they were putting together her park costume.
