Why One 'The Big Bang Theory' Star Hates 'Frozen'


'The Big Bang Theory' Cast

A recent article, which can be read here, explains why one 'The Big Bang Theory' star hates 'Frozen'. After a humorous warning, it opens with "Oh my gosh. I know, I’m about to lose more fans than when I declared myself a proud liberal Zionist during Operation Protective Edge."


Mayim Bialik

So, why does Mayim Bialik hate 'Frozen'? Here are some of the highlights:


"1. Plot/Feminism?

Sure, it’s sort of hidden, but the search for a man/love/Prince is still the reigning plot line in the movie, as it is with pretty much all movies for young people which are animated. The sister’s desire to marry this guy she just met, and the other sister getting mad at her–we still have a plot about the identification of a woman being based on her desire and search to meet a man."


"2. Denoument/Male Bashing?

Denoument is French for the unfolding of a story–the final unraveling, as it were. What happens in “Frozen”? The Prince/hero turns out to be a scheming villain. He pretended to love her and then he double crosses her and she gets the lesson taught to her not to trust those nasty scheming conniving men. Because you know, men can’t be trusted? Meh."


"3. Women as Dolls?

OK, my biggest problem with this movie was the way the female characters are drawn and animated. The male characters look like cartoon men. They have some exaggerated features, sure. But by and large, they look like they have the proportions of human beings.

Not so with our lead ladies. They have ginormous eyes. Like really ridiculously big. Teeny-tiny ski slope noses. Exaggerated delicate ski sloppiness, actually. Barbie doll proportions of their bodies in general: tiny waists, ample busts, and huge heads. They look like dolls. They don’t look like the same species as the male characters even! What’s up with that?! My sons thought the females looked like BRATZ dolls, truth be told. I kind of agree."

If you take the first point deeper, the girl was looking for ANYBODY. Ana being into that one guy is there, but she spent more of the movie with the blond dude, and even more looking for her sister. It was her sister who saves her and not some guy. I figured this movie would be a step in the feminist direction. The prince was a dick. The merchant was also a bad guy. None of the male characters were absolutely essential for anything positive in the movie. Blond guy's efforts were wasted because the trolls couldn't help, and wasn't he a bit of an ass anyway? 

That said, i didn't notice the way they were drawn.
