It's good, but it's not a classic. I guess that in time it could become a classic but it's FAR from a classic right now. Just because it's popular doesn't make it a classic, it just means Disney won't stop pushing the movie in the public's faces. I LOVE Tangled and The Princess and The Frog, but I wouldn't call them classic just yet because they're still too new, and they're FAR better movies than Frozen. Even though I think the movie is really flawed, modern, dated, and gimmicky, I don't doubt that in time it will become a classic. It's not going to be among my favorite Disney movies, but I do think in time it will become a classic, it just isn't yet.
Basically what KataraLover said. It's still too new, but if this love for it that the public has persists for the next 10 years or so it'll become a classic.
Definitely. Just like Snow White or Aladdin are classics. Saying it's not a classic would be like saying Snow White isn't a classic, or Aladdin isn't a classic.
Not yet, but maybe it will be regarded as a classic in the future. I'm not saying it necessarily compares to the great Renaissance movies, but maybe it'll stand out as more of a modern classic.
Eh. It is already a cult hit. It will eventually be considered a "classic" among the members of its fan base. Outside of that...? Hardly. Just because Disney may stamp "Classic" on some movie of theirs doesn't mean it is one.
I really don't care if they call it a "classic," or when they start calling it a "classic." It will never be a classic movie to me--- in the sense that I will want to rewatch it over and over again. Frozen did not leave a good impression with me. And a classic should make you want to see it again. I never want to see Frozen again. Frozen makes me want to develop pyrokinetic powers like Prince Zuko.
^ I honestly think that's a very arrogant viewpoint. Just because YOU don't like it and just because YOU wouldn't want to watch it over and over again, it doesn't mean it won't or shouldn't be considered a classic.
I'm not a fan of The Little Mermaid, for example, it's certainly not a movie that I could watch repeatedly, but I can't deny that it's a classic (the same goes for the title character). It's also the same with non-Disney movies like The Sound of Music, which is really not to my taste, but it's still undeniably a classic and I view it as a classic despite the fact that I'm not a fan of it.
It's too early at the moment but time will tell. Though I don't see why it wouldn't be a classic 10+ years from now. Tangled, too. I think most people that say otherwise are just wishful thinking because they don't like the movie.
@Mongoose: I said it was a "classic" for its fans right off the bat. But outside of the people to which Frozen actually appeals ( Frozen's intended audience), it isn't considered so much of "a classic." The same can be said for The Little Mermaid, Mulan, The Sound of Music, Titanic, you name ___ movie. A "classic" is very subjective to whomever the viewer is. To whomever loves it and rewatches it continually, it's a classic TO THEM. Besides, the word "classic" can be defined multiple ways: 1) as being the best of its kind, 2) as an example of excellence, or 3) something that's been popular for a long time. ( link ) Classic gets very subjective very fast. A thing can be very popular, for example, but it may not be considered the best of its kind nor deemed excellent by everyone.
Imo, Frozen is nothing special and revolutionary. Sure it made a lot of money and won a some awards, but so did Twilight, Avatar, and Transformers. Frozen, just feels like a fad that Disney just keeps milking dry. But I guess we'll see how it holds up in the next decade. :0

As of now, nope.
