I keep seeing this strange epidemic where many people are assuming that the events of Frozen are going to be taken as the verbatim story... I have no idea where people are getting this notion! They've never once done it before, they wouldn't start now.

That's really what I keep reading in articles and stuff, they make it sound as if the storyline is much more connected with the events of the movie than ever before. Like literally, “the storyline will take place after the events of the hit Disney movie”. Which of course might not be the case, as the press says whatever it wants, or it might just be some kind of teasing to create some major hype, and then they will be pulling it off in a different way as they always do. But that's definitely where people are getting this notion.

Of course, I hope you're right and they will keep doing things their own way. Even Elsa's outfit in the Season Finale being the same as the movie, to me it looked like they were just making the character recognisable to create a cliffhanger. I'm hopeful they won't be “disneying” it too much.
