Maybe after being ripped off by Dreamworks so much, Pixar has decided to turn the tables.

Me too! I actually thought it was How to Train Your Dragon!
Merida looks a little better i guess


Also can you post the source of the release date for the trailer!

Well, Brave is set in Medieval Scotland. So it is likely to have that look to it. I mean How to Train Your Dragon was set during the same time period, albeit in a different location. That's what I have to say in defense of the look!

I love the new pics especially that one of Merida looking at the little spirit. Very beautiful!

Hi there! Here's the source; http://www.slashfilm.com/

Anyway, I really loved those pictures. The only dissapointment is how Pixaresque the humans actually looks like. I actually hoped Pixar would expand their designs on their humans for once.

Well I would say Merida definitely looks different from the average Pixar heroine in that her eyes are a little smaller and she has a bit more of a serious look.

The Queen looks kind of like Colette but not nearly as round faced. She looks more like a traditional Disney character.

The only characters who look more in the Pixar realm of design are the triplets. Definitely see a strong Linguini resemblance.

I agree.

On another note, I noticed that Merida's royal dress completely covers her hair which functions as a symbol of the social expectations that oppress and confine her as opposed to the freedom Merida seeks and her desire to escape these social constraints symbolized by her big, curly, red hair (as well as her love of archery and horse-back riding which were predominantly male activities).

I noticed that right away. It's a great metaphor, especially if she's the only one in the movie with it. Besides the face, hair reflects so much of a person's character. Just think...Would Ariel be Ariel without her bright red hair?

Yeah, I noticed that, too. A quite interesting picture.

Has anyone seen the trailer yet? I've searched all over the Internet and I can't find it.

It hasn't been released yet. It's supposed to be released at some point today.

Okay. Thanks, mate I apologize for my ignorant question.

No problem! You really don't need to apologize. Your question wasn't 'ignorant'; it was a perfectly reasonable question.

I like the trailer but I wish they didn't include those silly jokes and gags. It spoils the ambiance of an otherwise serious and epic-looking trailer.

I couldn't said it better myself!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the Scottish accents. Especially coming from Merida. Usually the non-American accents are reserved for sidekicks and villains only, so this is a refreshing change. Kelly sounds great in the role.

The trailer looks like a it will have a nice balance of comedy and serious adventure, which is fine. As long as there are no dragons that sound like they are from the hood, or gorillas who sound like they are from Brooklyn, I'm ok with a little silliness.

Even though it feels more Disney than Pixar, it looks amazing. Wonderful visuals. And Scottish accents, that's a plus!

Overall looks really good. And it's nice to see that the humorous aspects will be on equal level with the darker aspects. But really was Lord Hagrid (whatever his name is but he is voiced by Robbie Coltrane) showing off his nether regions really necessary?

But aside from that, it looks like a fun ride. Merida looks like she's going to be such a great heroine. From the trailer she kind of reminds me of an 18-year-old Coraline only not as bitchy.

As for it being more Disney-like, need I remind you that this was written by two writers who have written stuff for Disney in the past?

I would be okay with silly humour as well...if it was funny in the slightest. The gags in Brave ("...feast your eyes on this"? Seriously?) are utterly dreadful. It looks more like Dreamworks than Pixar.
