6 Royal Ice Ladies Not Named Elsa
Do you want to make a Frozen-themed List of Six? Why yes, I do! And I’m not going to let this idea go! Or something. You all know the obvious Frozen puns. Don’t hold me to a high standard! Let’s just enjoy a list based on the release of Frozen II.
Hopeful for love
I liked Frozen II. I didn’t think much of the original movie, but I’m fully on board with the campaign to have Queen Elsa come out of the closet, so these movies matter just enough to me that I wanted to do a List of Six! I think Frozen II was better than the first, though none of the songs are as memorable or as good as “Let It Go!”. But this list isn’t a review of Frozen II. This is a celebration of the very idea of awesome women with ice powers who happen to hold a royal or leadership position (even if in name only). It’s apparently so common that I was able to make a whole List of Six about it! How cool is that?
Pun intended. Join me after the jump for a bunch of other ice queens, princesses and martial arts masters who aren’t Elsa from Frozen!
New Infinity Train is On The Way!
Did you catch Infinity Train when it finally came out this past year? I sure did, and I quite enjoyed the adventures of Tulip on that crazy train! Of course, if you saw it, you know that the first season ended pretty definitively.
Fortunately, season 2 seems to have come up with a really great way to keep the story going without undoing the previous ending.
Looks as good as season 1! Doesn’t look as good as the original pilot, but nothing ever will ever again. Still, season 1 was really good, and I can’t wait for season 2!

The Harley Quinn Cartoon is Gonna be Lit!
The Harley Quinn cartoon comes out at the end of the month and it looks better than ever in this new trailer! Apparently it’s going to be R-rated, which is pretty neat! The R-rated Joker movie just became the first such movie to gross more than $1 billion. So while Marvel is family friendly, maybe DC is going hardcore.
The cartoon looks great! Wacky, wild, wicked and deep in DC lore! I’m very much looking forward to the Harley Quinn cartoon. And DC better not be afraid to hook up Harley and Ivy! Just make it happen!
I also hope to see Red Tool.

So They’re Making a Scooby Doo Cartoon Movie
There have been approximately one million Scooby Doo cartoon reboots and relaunches over the years. And now for the first time ever, they’re making a cartoon movie for the big screen. Here comes Scoob!
What an odd trailer. Looks like an awkward origin movie, crossed with an alien abduction story? I don’t know. It just looks so weird. I was a big fan of A Pup Named Scooby Doo when I was a kid, but seeing Scooby as a puppy in that trailer was kinda creepy!
Anyway, it comes out on May 15, for better or worse.

Pixar is Just Cranking Them Out Now!
We already know that Onward is coming out next year from Pixar, but now we’ve also got Soul! Perhaps Pixar is going back to meaningful, non-sequel movies. I have hope.
Though that cowboy dance at the end isn’t very heartening. Must even Pixar reduce themselves to silly nonsense comedy? Leave that to the Arctic Dogs of the world.
Soul comes out on June 19.
