"SNEAK PEEK — In every Pixar film, savvy viewers can catch a sneak peek at a tease for the studio’s next release. In “Cars 2,” there is a “car-ified” version of prominent figures from 2012’s “Brave.” When the Lemons crash into Ye Left Turn Inn in the London sequence, look closely!"
Any pictures? I've seen it once in theatres and am not going to see it again until it's out on DVD.

I like Merida's design and all, but don't you think Merida's cheeks are a little too red? Everytime I see a screenshot of her it bugs me so much.

I just looked at the cast and am surprised at how many people I recognize.

Kelly Macdonald from Boardwalk Empire

Kevin McKidd from Rome

Robbie Coltrane from Harry Potter

Craig Ferguson (who has been in too many animated films as of late)

Billy Connolly (well, he's Billy Connolly)

Should be interesting. I really want to see more as the teaser gives us a good look at the darker feel they are going for with this movie and it have me very excited).

What you don't realize is that just before that scene took place, Merida had argued with someone from the castle about wanting to be an archer. That person had slapped her, twice, and so that even after she'd raced out in order to defy that person, her cheeks had still been red!

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Sorry guys, I thought she was serious. :D B/c following the movie's dark elements, it seems like her parents would do that.

So, Merida might be a Disney princess after all.
Today at the D23 Expo, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts Chairman Tom Staggs and Disneyland Resort PresidentGeorge Kalogridis announced an exciting transformation poised to take place at Disneyland park.

The boundaries of Fantasyland are expanding with a brand new experience called Fantasy Faire. For this project, Carnations Plaza Gardens Stage is being reimagined into an enchanting village square that will immerse guests in the stories of their favorite princesses in exciting new ways.

Guests will travel through a village square surrounded by fairytale cottages and pavilions to the heart of the square – Tangled Tower, inspired by the film. The village square will come alive with activities and entertainment, including a Royal Ribbon Parade where guests can dance and interact with Belle or Rapunzel. Guests can visit the their favorite Disney royalty from such films as “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” “Cinderella,” “Sleeping Beauty,” “Beauty and the Beast,” “Tangled” and the upcoming Disney•Pixar film, “Brave.”

‪The Fantasy Faire Stage will be a new entertainment venue where the stories of Disney’s fairy tale heroes and heroines will be brought to life, letting guests become part of the story as well.

‪And at night, the Fantasy Faire Stage will come alive with the classic music and dance offerings that Disneyland park guests have loved for years

It's going to be interesting what Merida is actually like. I didn't really imagine her as a "Princess" but as a Rebel (if you know what i mean) But it looks like she will be as princess like as the others! I'm so curious to know what her section will be in this area! I really hope she gets a love interest :wink:

Also ... I feel sorry for Tiana not being included :lol: (does she have her own area or something???)

Don't worry, I think she will. Oh, yeah! I didn't recognize that Tiana was missing! :o :o :o I think she will be in it, I can't imagine DL not having her in a all-Princess thing.

*Spoiler Alert*
From the Brave presentation at the D23 Expo:

- John Lasseter says the film is ‘unlike any we’ve made, the first fairytale for Pixar.”

- Crews took two trips to Scotland to do their research for authenticity.

- The forest is Merdia’s (the main character’s) second home. Merida and her mother do not see eye-to-eye.

- In the story she must marry into one of three Lords families. The three candidates do not get along with one another and each has their flaws.

- In this fantasy world, there are things called wisps which can either change your fate for the better or make it hell.

- Looking for help, Merida follows a trail of these wisps to the home of a witch. The witch puts a spell on her which screws up her life further. Now in trouble, Merida must find a way to break the spell.

- Director and producer play a scene from the film: The lords are competing for Merida’s hand in marriage. She gets to select which game they get to compete in. Being a skilled archer, she chooses archery. The first candidate is far off the target. The second is closer but not quite (he throws a tantrum once he misses the bullseye). The third doesn’t know how to shoot but nails the bullseye, to which the father of the third candidate brags to the other two fathers and goes so far as to flash his rear to them (this got huge laughs in the audience). Merida is not impressed by any of the three. She comes into the game area and decides to shoot “for my own hand in marriage.” Her mother isn’t happy with this and tries to get her to stop. Merida shoots at all three target and nails the bullseye perfectly. On the third she shoot through the arrow that had already hit the bullseye by the third candidate.

Kelly Macdonald (Merida) and Kevin McKidd (Lord MacGuffin) take the stage and discuss what it’s like to be involved with the film. “It was like I was asked to play Woody,” said Macdonald.
