Key Details
- Before K-Pop Demon Hunters, before Wicked, it was Disney's Frozen that blasted show tunes like "Let it Go" and "Into the Unknown" into our lives.
- My little girls loved belting those tunes.
- So when I met Olaf, the Disney Imagineering robot, I kept thinking: I can't wait for my kids to meet him too.
- It's a weird thought, really, because this Olaf isn't a "he" and can't carry on a conversation.

Why do I keep thinking "I met him" when he's largely a remote-controlled puppet teleoperated by a Steam Deck gaming handheld? @verge Is this the best robot Disney's ever made? Fr
