Before Tyrian Lannister was drinking and knowing things, Star Trek: The Next Generation (TNG) had Guinan, played by Whoopi Goldberg, who tended bar and listened. She appears in 15 episodes, often drawing out philosophical and social conversations from the crew, even forcing high ranking persons (Picard, for example) to confront racism, concepts of redemption, and their own leadership methods.

I feel I should be upfront here. I was not a fan of Frozen. There’s a myriad of reasons from plot lines, to annoyance at Frozen-mania, to personal experiences at the time that tainted most experiences. But with Frozen 2, I didn’t want to take this past baggage. So with a fresh and open mind, I entered the El Capitan theater, fully expecting to at least be amused by the film.
