Dubbing scenes from the highest-grossing animated film of all time with the audio from the 'Fifty Shades of Grey' trailer has resulted in 'Fifty Shades of Frozen." An amazing fan-made mash-up, it turns the family-friendly movie in a racy trailer that really puts a clever spin on the beloved scenes. In fact, it is somewhat eerie to see how dark the Disney film did turn. Prince Hans does have an evil side to him, after all.
So wrong, it's right, as Pop Sugar puts it, the Fifty Shades of Frozen trailer mimics the 'Fifty Shades of Grey' trailer almost to a tee. But in place of Anastasia and Christian's bedroom activities, it cuts to Anna and the Prince dancing and almost kissing. Yet the dungeon scene does leave a lot to the imagination.
