sorry, but at this point in time, with all the easy computing power, if they didn't have mind-blowingly realistic snow then my... mind would be blown.

i did find the artificial voice very interesting, though. i mean, unlike stuff i've heard before, it seems to integrate sampling from a real person's voice. pretty cool. it just runs too fast for some reason.

No amount of computing power helps if you don't know what to compute

i'm pretty sure that physics, math, and logic provided a few clues, noonpoop.

Great. Now maybe they can make a version of 'Scarface' where Tony really snorts up some coke!

All the "snow" in this video looks wet, like it does under mild conditions. The trailer for "Frozen" shows a typical very cold landscape. In those conditions the snow is fluffy and more like powder. Fail!
Anyway, the Disney team went to Norway to find inspiration for this movie, It's easy to see.

Well, I suppose they could combine these effects with the liquid physics to make a realistic melting effect.
