Anna and Elsa in Zootopia
Frozen, Disney’s most successful film of the 2000s has already cemented its place alongside The Lion King as an iconic classic. As a result, future Disney films are likely to include numerous references to them. In fact, a number of them have already occurred.
In the 2016 film Zootopia, there is a scene in which we can see a fish market. Outside, two small elephants are strolling among the other animals, and upon closer inspection, it is revealed that they are dressed as Elsa and Anna from the Disney film Frozen!
Adjusting to international audiences
It’s easy to forget how intricately Disney films are put together from start to finish. Even though the films are produced in America and are in English, they are sold worldwide. Furthermore, children in Japan, Norway, and Italy cannot comprehend or communicate effectively in English.
Because of the numerous adaptations that must be made for international versions of Disney films, it is easier to make changes. A good example of this is Toy Story 2, where the American flag is replaced with a globe.
