MUST WATCH: First Trailer For Pixar's BRAVE!

Ah yes, this incumbent Pixar movie is destined to recover the missing fresh tomatoes for the recently released CARS 2 (though I enjoyed it). BRAVE looks like an exciting trip to Scotland!

I suspect heartstrings will be pulled with this one despite this action oriented first trailer. Traditional Scottish lore must be involved and throw in some strong family ties too. Merida must go through some sort of personal change throughout the movie - perhaps she starts out meek and mild? Guesswork, but it's only because I am really interested in this project. Scotland is close to my heart in many, many ways.

Brave is set in the mystical Scottish Highlands, where Merida (Kelly Macdonald) is the princess of a kingdom ruled by King Fergus (Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (Emma Thompson). An unruly daughter and an accomplished archer, Merida one day defies a sacred custom of the land and inadvertently brings turmoil to the kingdom. In an attempt to set things right, Merida seeks out an eccentric old Wise Woman (Julie Walters) and is granted an ill-fated wish. Also figuring into Merida's quest — and serving as comic relief — are the kingdom’s three lords: the enormous Lord MacGuffin (Kevin McKidd), the surly Lord Macintosh (Craig Ferguson), and the disagreeable Lord Dingwall (Robbie Coltrane).
