Well; Japaneses, that right there says a lot..... I like that Japaneses, love anime, manga's, their horror movies; but lets face it. Their cutler as a whole has some eye poppers; Japaneses man married a video game character, they started the whole marry your pillow thing. Honestly; once I read Japaneses; it started to make sense o.o

Frozen was very, very good; I loved it a lot. But honestly its no Toy story. It is streamline good; love the vocalist in it; one of them was in the origonal Broadway production of wick though, so every time that char sings I get wicked songs stuck in my head!!!

Japanese people aren't more crazy than other peoples. People in different cultures just manifest their oddities in different ways, it so happens that weirdos in Japan get in headlines a bit more often because of that stereotype.
Like this reminds me of when people started committing suicide over the movie Avatar, I'm pretty sure they were my fellow Americans.

How about the; I think he was American, guy who married his dog. said it was nothing sexual; he just wanted to spend his life with his best friend. *ahem* I was not specifically meaning Japan was crazyer; it just does seem to be their style of crazy. People can say anime is an exsajuration all they like, but as long as your not into a to freaked out area, its kinda spot on. (US cartoons really do explain a lot about the generations that watch them too.)

This is pretty funny. I've thought about breaking up with Billy a few times because he said he didn't think Dany belonged on the Iron Throne

People divorcing because of Frozen... Okay, that's extreme. But people committing suicide over Avatar? Honestly the music of that movie wasn't that bad?! Well... I dunno. About Frozen, I found it to be overrated. I really like the themes of the film, but as a film as a whole it's pretty mediocre. The characters don't really have that much dimension. There's almost no story to the other characters except Elsa and Anna. And I found the humour to be pretty lacking. Really, I certainly prefer Tangled (called Rapunzel here, as it should be!) over Frozen. The songs are more memorable. Frozen was just lucky that it scored with the song 'Let it Go.' If not for that song, Frozen would hardly be what it is now. The movie owes a lot to that song.

Keep in mind frozen I believe was also made for more 3-6 year old where tangled was more 6-10 and adult. As much as I love tangled (which I think they named it that to just be fun); I think Brave is better then both of them.

Brave, myeah the story felt a bit empty, but I loved the characters (I love Billy Connolly in it!). The humour was certainly better in Brave, but yeah over all I prefer Tangled.

I don't know the status of other countries public access television, but over here it is like peering into another world. About the Avatar thing too, people weren't killing themselves over how bad it was, they were doing it over how good it was. They were so disappointed that the world in Avatar would never be real that they saw the world as too mundane or something. Back to Frozen though, I've heard mixed things about it. I haven't seen it myself but trusted opinions have told me that it feels like a standard film of the genre. I wonder if Frozen spread more from better international promotion or something.

Wow I had never even heard of those Avatar suicides, that's just bizarre...
I think Brave is better than Frozen and Tangled as well, but I enjoy all three movies and own them on DVD, since it's a genre I'm interested in.

It's kind of amazing to me how little things like minor disagreements get all blown out of proportion.

"You like Keeping up with the Kardashians? Sorry, we have to get divorced."
Now THAT'S legitimate grounds.
