That is about all that matters for this. It was a very simple story where the ending was obvious but come on this is just a Christmas cartoon for kids. I would say it definitely is not as good as the original classic but that's what it was, a total classic, so no sequel could really live up to it. The kids loved it, it was entertaining enough for us adults (and not nearly as annoying as most of the other holiday cartoons we watched) and I think it is very underrated here.

Back in the early 90s, Frosty returned for another short film and I have to say this one did not really impress me. Then again, this also goes for all the Frosty films except the very first in my opinion. Rankin and Bass did not direct this one, but instead Evert Broan and Bill Melendez were in charge and you could easily see that they have worked on Charlie Brown for a very long time. It looks a lot like a Charlie Brown movie actually and it maybe also was no coincidence that the human male lead character's name was Charles. In any case, this is an interesting watch in terms of voice acting, because it has John Goodman as Frosty and I am a fan of him. And apart from that, Mad Men fans will be curious about the 10-year-old Elizabeth Moss in this one. Their farewell scene at the end was actually pretty nice, but apart from that there aren't really many memorable aspects to remember from this 1992 short film. Not recommended.

Frosty has returned to indoctrinate your children. Deplorable propaganda that has an in-name-only Frosty the Snowman fighting a polluting businessman. Ugh. Just so much ugh. This has nothing to do with Christmas. Instead we have Winter Carnival. One of the kids says "Let's go outside and make a fertility goddess." What. The. Hell. Frosty's not even allowed to have a pipe, no doubt due to the drastic increase in pipe-smoking children after the original Frosty aired. The songs are absolutely terrible! I hope no one was paid for them. The animation is sloppy and unattractive. This is an agenda-driven cartoon made by screwed-up people who hate Christmas. Sadly, even after 22 years, CBS continues to air this monstrosity after the genuine classic 1969 cartoon.

I saw this film the first time on TV 2 years ago while my sister was with a babysitter and I thought it was not bad. I watched it a long time ago when I was like 7 (Years) old and I thought it was still not bad but I got this movie on DVD from the library to watch with my sister and with somebody's 3 year old and oh no, I noticed this film was quite awful. The 3 year old could not understand it that he got up to play a little dress up with dirty clothes in just 2 minutes. 5 minutes later, my sister's eyes were tired and then a moment later she got up to play outside. I was left alone watching this and I thought it was terrible absurd for a holiday film. It's like the worst Christmas movie you have ever seen and a bad sequel off Frosty the snowman and a horrible rip-off for some of the characters off of Charley Brown like they edited them and take all the comedy off. I did not laugh at this film at all, I am so tired thinking about it yesterday so I played my DS towards the end of the film because I kept taking my eyes off it. Afterwards I went to go watch Little house on the prairie for like 2 and a half hour and still didn't get my gorgeous 30 minutes back. This film definitely takes your time away and makes you want to watch something for a whole 5 days to get your life back. This film has two choices. It needs to go to Hell, or it needs to be taken off air forever and ever. It was not the worst worst worst film but quite beyond that. It was more decidedly awful. My rates for this film Plot: Quite terrible and incomprehensible. It's like Frosty incomprehends me snowman. I didn't get the point of how they use something to disappear snow and all. Grade: D+ Animation: Bad. It was like… a Tarantula or some foolish person made the animation. Grade: D Characters: Bad rip-offs of Charley brown again and… Hard to explain lets forget the characters. Grade: C Voices: The voices were OK but Holly, she sounded like a 7 and a 6 year old but she looks like a 8, 9, 10, 11 year old kind of. Her voice should have sounded a little more mature. Grade: -B Movements: They were bad like somebody skipping 888 percent from place to the corner. Just terrible! Grade: D+ Script: Incomprehensible script as again same with the plot. I nearly got the whole script it just made me feel like Somebody… Like I'm dead. The script almost totally killed me. Grade: -D Movie: The whole movie is absurd and terrible so that is all. Grade: E Song: The songs were not bad but they did not fit the music. Make more effort to them and the movie. Main rating: D Bad for a movie. Somebody please cancel the air and continue playing The snowman and Frosty the snowman and winterwonder land versions should be kept forever I loved them all to death! But the legend of frosty the snowman was nearly bad too but a little better than this. I think people should pack up making these frosty the snowman movies stink like crap. I can't say bad words but for this one has got to be gone and melted. Bring back the older ones and stop making these poopy craps! I thought this movie was made in the middle of the 80s it seemed like but they do not get them Ugh!
