Day 5 - Elsa


A little trivia from her movie, courtesy of IMDb:

As of April 11, 2014, Frozen (2013) became both the highest grossing animated and musical film of all time and the ninth highest grossing film of all time with a worldwide box office gross of $1.097 billion.

The characters of Hans, Kristoff, Anna and Sven are a reference to Hans Christian Andersen, the author of The Snow Queen. Say the names quickly in sequence and hear the similarity.

During Olaf's song, his dance with four seagulls is a nod to Bert's dance with four penguins from another Disney movie: Mary Poppins (1964).

There is also a plush Mickey Mouse on one of the shelves in Wandering Oaken's Trading Post and Sauna.

For the song "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?", three different actresses respectively provided the singing voice of Anna: Katie Lopez as Young Anna, Agatha Lee Monn as Teenage Anna, and Kristen Bell as Anna. Agatha is the daughter of the film's writer/director Jennifer Lee and Katie is the daughter of its songwriters Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez. In fact, Katie and her sister, Annie, sang the film's deleted song, "Spring Pageant", along with their parents. The song can be found on the film's two-disc Deluxe Edition Motion Picture Soundtrack.

In a magazine interview, Idina Menzel claimed her young son boasted to his classmates that his mom sings the songs in Frozen. To this, another child replied, "So does everyone else's."

So, if you just can't resist (and want it in your head aaaaaaaaaall day):

Day 6:
The letter F brings us to Flora, Fauna & Merryweather. (I know, that’s only 2 out of 3 F’s, but they’re a set!)

These are Princess Aurora’s fairy godmothers in Sleeping Beauty. Flora is in red, Fauna in green, and Merryweather in blue, and they were voiced by Verna Felton, Barbara Jo Allen, and Barbara Luddy.

I was going to link a video clip from the cartoon, but when I googled it, I saw this one down below, of three little girls dressed as these three fairies at Disneyland...wands and all. It was too adorable not to post! ~
