Finally we are seeing some meat with those potatoes! Pixar has released the Japanese trailer for BRAVE and it is ten times the trailer for North America. I want to see this thing in HD!
The Japanese are known for loving mythic, beautiful lands and in particular lead characters that are red haired females. I know this because of ANNE OF GREEN GABLES which is extremely popular on the island nation. Anne too is a red haired beauty whose adventures through life are extremely compelling. All this to say I know BRAVE will be a huge hit for the studio in Japan.
Thus they get the best trailer yet. Our eyes are opened for the first time to many new scenes and the story is beginning to take shape visually.
Here's the storyline:
Since ancient times, stories of epic battles and mystical legends have been passed through the generations across the rugged and mysterious Highlands of Scotland. In “Brave,” a new tale joins the lore when the courageous Merida (voice of Kelly Macdonald) confronts tradition, destiny and the fiercest of beasts. Merida is a skilled archer and impetuous daughter of King Fergus (voice of Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (voice of Emma Thompson). Determined to carve her own path in life, Merida defies an age-old custom sacred to the uproarious lords of the land: massive Lord MacGuffin (voice of Kevin McKidd), surly Lord Macintosh (voice of Craig Ferguson) and cantankerous Lord Dingwall (voice of Robbie Coltrane). Merida’s actions inadvertently unleash chaos and fury in the kingdom, and when she turns to an eccentric old Wise Woman (voice of Julie Walters) for help, she is granted an ill-fated wish. The ensuing peril forces Merida to discover the meaning of true bravery in order to undo a beastly curse before it’s too late.
Have a look!
Awesome. Want to see more! BRAVE opens June 22.
