It's crazy that they weren't going to include Olaf. He's probably the biggest frozen character for merchandise

[LiyLo]

No one else can do Olaf besides Josh because he has the perfect voice

I wish this weren’t censored. I think it would’ve been so funny to hear OLAF say “F*** that reindeer”

[kstepko]

NO! Don’t make a Frozen 3! One was amazing, two was utter crap and ruined everything I loved about one. Three can’t possibly be anything but a dumpster fire. Stop ruining everything good by trying to milk every cent out of it that you can!
