So Norway’s production of ‘Frozen’ just casually has a plus size Anna and black Elsa? And I think that is fabulous?

Got any facts about Norway or the Norwegian language?
Norwegian is among the funniest languages to know because it utterly ruins John Carpenter's "The Thing."
Like, if you know Norwegian, the Norwegian guy clearly shouts every spoiler in the movie in the first 2 minutes. This is far more fun than Swedish, which made Ingmar Bergman call all his leading ladies a very bad word at the end.

Someone tried to correct my Norwegian pronunciation but when they spoke, my alarm sound came out of their mouth and I woke up to my alarm going off.
