Originally Posted By mawnck >>Tinkerbell's sister is a lot hotter than Tinkerbell<< Nuh-uh. She's a frost fairy. The gist of the story is that they're long-lost sisters, but environmentally incompatible. If Tink goes to winter-what-ever-world, or Peri goes to Tink-land, it permanently screws up their wings. So of course they do everything they can to be together, tragedy ensues, and (SPOILER) is resolved with clumsily foreshadowed magical derpy-ness. Saw the movie at the El Capitan, because I'm insane like that. About the nicest thing I can say about it is it's better than the last one.
