I’m not sure where to put this comment so I’ll just annoy Scott, as usual:

I just finished watching Disney’s Frozen and it was pretty awesome! Reviewed here:

My girls loved it and I enjoyed it as well. As I was watching, I couldn’t help but think of Iceman and how great it would be if Marvel could try their hand at animation of this caliber, targeted at kids and not us adults, filled with gratuitous violence ala DC.

** Begin sarcasm **

What? Actually market to kids instead of old guys like us… and possibly extend the longevity of the comics medium once we’re dead in about 30 years? Just because every other corporation is trying to penetrate the public school system in order to reach children at a young age… why should Marvel or DC? It’s like they have a succession plan or anything…

** End sarcasm **

And…, what if Brian Singer would watch Frozen and recognize his X movies for the duds that they are. So, instead of trying to load up his latest X flick with as many characters as possible, why not offer a simpler, entertaining story with SOUL! I can’t tell you guys how much I dislike the X / Wolverine films. Frozen is a great example of how great and magical mutant powers can be…

Some good choices, Scott. I appreciate you taking the time to post stuff like this. P.S. I’m still around. Working on a couple of articles I may submit soon. Been real busy at work and haven’t been too inspired lately.

Some good ideas Charlie. I think animated movies do more for comics than live-action.
