BRAVE!
AHSFLAKSFH!
1. Trailers:
The usual kid-flicks for the most part. Disney's upcoming Wreck It Ralph, which looks SO CREATIVE OMG. Pixar's Monsters University had a teaser, which was hilarious.
Lol-ing into infinity.
2. The Animation:
ALSKFHSALFKSHGLAKSGHA!
MERIDA'S HAIR. HER FREAKING HAIR OH MY GOSH.
IT WAS THE MOST RIDICULOUSLY GORGEOUS THING I HAVE EVER SEEN. JUST... WAVES UPON WAVES OF CURLY WILD TANGLED RED HAIR AND IT ALL LOOKED SO SOFT AND FLUFFY AND I'LL BET IT WAS AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE TO ANIMATE AND RENDER.
HER HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRR!
ALSO THE SCOTTISH SCENERY, LIEK WOAH. AMAZINGLY PRETTY.
Everything was so ridiculously pretty in this movie.
3. The Music:
HNNNNNNNGH BAGPIPES AND WOMEN SINGING IN GAELIC AND JUST-JUST-
SCOTTISH/IRISH FOLK MUSIC IS ONE OF MY BIGGEST GEEK THINGS OKAY? I LOVE IT TO PIECES. SO AS YOU CAN IMAGINE I WAS A VERY HAPPY FANGIRL.
4. The Characters:
Merida is awesome forever the end. Her arc was about growing up and learning responsibility, taking the fall for her actions and fixing the mistakes she's caused. And she was an amazing archer. Like holy cow.
Elinor, our dual protagonist... OH GOSH ELINOR I LOVE HEEEEEERRRR. SHE JUST WANTS MERIDA TO BE READY FOR HER QUEENSHIP AND EVERYTHING SHE DOES SHE DOES OUT OF LOVE FOR MERIDA AND SHE GOT TO BE LITERAL MAMA BEAR AND SHE NEVER EVER STOPPED PROTECTING MERIDA AND NGAAAAAAAAH!
Fergus was sweet. Very cutely happily married with Elinor. The triplets were such brats. Funny, but I would have smacked their asses into next week. Loved the clan leaders and the sons. Also Mordu was scary as all hell.
The witch was hilarious.
5. The Story:
ALSFKHALSFAKHSF.
THIS IS MY FAVORITE PIXAR MOVIE NOW, HATERS TO THE LEFT.
JUST... JUST... MERIDA AND HER MOM AND THEY DON'T SEE EYE TO EYE AND MERIDA DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THAT ELINOR'S DOING ALL OF IT OUT OF LOVE AND ELINOR DOESN'T UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH MERIDA VALUES HER FREEDOM AND THEY FIGHT AND THEY HURT EACH OTHER BUT IMMEDIATELY REGRET IT AND THEN MERIDA MESSES EVERYTHING UP AND GETS ELINOR TURNED INTO A BEAR AND THEN THEY GO OFF AND THEY HAVE AN ADVENTURE AND ELINOR FIGHTS HER BEAR-INSTINCTS TOOTH AND NAIL BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T WANT TO LOSE HERSELF AND ACCIDENTALLY INJURE OR HURT MERIDA AND MERIDA DESPERATELY TRIES TO FIX HER MISTAKE BECAUSE SHE'S A SCARED LITTLE GIRL WHO JUST WANTS HER MOMMY BACK AND THEY ENCOUNTER MORDU AND FIGURE OUT THE WITCH'S RIDDLE AND MERIDA MATURES AND FIGURES OUT HOW TO DIFFUSE THE BUILDING TENSIONS BETWEEN THE CLANS BY TELLING ELINOR'S FOLK STORY AND JUST BEING THE MOST ADORABLE DIPLOMAT EVER AND ELINOR ALSO COMPROMISES AND TELLS MERIDA TO BREAK TRADITION AND CHOOSE WHO SHE WANTS TO MARRY.
AND FERGUS GOES INTO ELINOR'S ROOM AND PANICS WHEN HE SEES THE TORN DRESS AND THEN RAGES AGAINST BEAR!ELINOR WHILE POOR MERIDA TRIES DESPERATELY TO PROTECT THEM BOTH AND WHEN ELINOR SEES SHE'S SCRATCHED HER BABY GIRL SHE HAULS ASS OUT OF THERE, PURSUED BY HER HUSBAND AND THE ANGRY MOB BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW IT'S HER AND MERIDA GETS HER BROTHERS TO HELP HER OUT OF THE ROOM AND SHE STOPS THEM BEFORE THEY CAN KILL HER AND THEN MORDU SHOWS UP AGAIN AND NIGHTMARES FOREVER HE IS HUGE AND UNSTOPPABLE AND ELINOR BREAKS OUT AND JUST WAILS ON HIM BECAUSE HE'S NOT GOING TO HURT HER BABY GIRL AND THEY MANAGE TO KILL HIM AND MERIDA THROWS THE MENDED TAPESTRY OVER HER MOM AND BEGS HER TO COME BACK AND I BAWL LIKE A LITTLE BABY.
AND THEN ELINOR IS RESTORED AND FERGUS OGLES HER APPRECIATIVELY BECAUSE UNDER THE TAPESTRY SHES' "NAKED AS A BABY" AND THERE IS A GROUP FAMILY HUG AND ALL IS WELL IN THE WORLD.
AND ELINOR AND MERIDA RIDE OFF INTO THE SUNSET TOGETHER, ON ANOTHER ADVENTURE.
Just... let me drown in these feelings.
6. Conclusion:
I will fight anyone who says this isn't as strong a story as some of Pixar's previous works. It's as solid as The Incredibles at the very least. I love it utterly to pieces and YES THIS IS DEFINITELY MY FAVORITE PIXAR MOVIE NOW.
LADIES AND THEIR LADY FEELINGS AND MOTHER/DAUGHTER BOOOOOOOONNNDS!
*weeps forever*
