Considering that they should have had an inkling that this would happen after the earlier screenings in Mexico, Disney is kinda slow to react. Still, they have instructed movie theaters to remove the LONG 22-minute "Olaf's Frozen Adventure" before the screening of "Coco".
The Frozen short has been especially problematic for a number
of reasons. Length is the biggest issue, of course, since the actual
movie doesn't start until 40 minutes after the advertised time, between
trailers, ads, and Olaf. That's a lot of extra sitting around
for an audience comprised primarily of kids expecting a story about
music and family, set against the backdrop of Mexico's Dia de los
Muertos.
Hopefully, Disney won't try this again anytime soon, especially considering that this could easily ruin the masterpiece that is "Coco".
