“Despite the success of Frozen (2013), the not-quite-short film Olaf’s Frozen Adventure (2017) received serious complaints from moviegoers in México for its longer than usual length, subpar quality compared to the source material, and it being a nonstop 21 minute long, Christmas-themed musical number. Complaints were so numerous that the two largest movie theatre chains in the country opted to stop showing the Frozen short film before the movie just a week after opening day.”
We did that. You could do that too.
This is not what happened. They didn’t remove the short because people complained! They removed it because it was only meant to be shown on the first week of the movie’s release. The license to show the short expired, that’s what happened. Cinemex and Cinepolis took advantage of it and made it look as if they heard their dear customers. Don’t spread misinformation.
Thank you for the update to this! So many people are using this as an excuse to re vamp their frozen hate, and it’s valid criticism IF your facts are correct. While 20 min isn’t a short, just think how much extra time you’ll have to get popcorn and use the restroom before the film if you don’t wish to see the short!
There is sill zero reason to put a 20 minute short before a feature length film. That is way to long and not what people paid for. Not to mention Frozen didn’t really need another Frozen short at all
