about to go to bed but i gotta yell for a second about something.
frozen 2 gets a lot of Shit tbh and while i have NO PROBLEM with people not personally vibing with the movie, i don’t vibe with people who throw shit at it without taking a second to even google something as easy as ‘what culture is frozen based on’ because the second you do, things WILL make more sense. not only that, but a lot of people are REACHING when it comes to points they make as to why it’s ‘such a bad movie’
as an actual norwegian, i was SO FUCKING HAPPY seeing this movie. in the first one, there’s not a lot of norwegian culture that’s actually touched on. it’s just said to be inspired by it and focus on the plot with most cultural things being in the bg or not a big part of the story (yknow except the haha norway Cold meme), and when the sequel came out and they went DEEP into lore and culture outside of the first movie???
i was so happy. we have so much culture and folklore and stuff in norway, and seeing this movie take it and make something out of it like this? god, it was a big thing for me. the northuldra representing the suomi people was EVEN BIGGER, as this is a big thing in norway when talking about our culture. the clothing and the singing, even the voice being done by a norwegian singer ??? all of this was very amazing for me to see as a norwegian.
i understand some people just don’t like the movie, and that’s OKAY, but don’t be ignorant towards an existing culture please. whenever disney actually shows representation of culture like this, it’s a big thing, especially for those who LIVE that culture. thank you.
