Frosty Returns (1992 TV Movie)
6/10
This isn't a direct sequel to Frosty the Snowman (1969). It shows.

This television special is only 22 minutes long. We're in trouble if that's the best thing I can say about it.

There are some pluses and minuses. Brian Doyle-Murray as Mr. Twitchell is a plus. John Goodman's singing voice as Frosty the Snowman is a major minus unfortunately. I like John Goodman, but the man can't carry a tune. I'm not sure why he'd be in a television special where he has to sing when that is the case.

The animation and character look in this special is very similar to Charlie Brown. There's nothing wrong with it. You know this special was aired originally in 1992 because there's an MTV reference.

Another thing I liked about this movie is the friendship theme. It's one we want to reinforce in children. Other than that, it's a quick, relatively enjoyable 22 minutes.

Watch the original and give this a glance if you have the chance.
