Mum's Monday: Pixar's Brave (The Pixar Theory)



Just what the film needs, a disgruntled princess. The scenes are amusing to watch.

The part where Merida (Kelly Macdonald) has her freedom, you can really relate to the exhilaration she is feeling, the music helps as well.

Even though this film is set in olden times it seems they have not escaped modern day dilemmas. It is good to hear that ‘Marriage is not the end of the world’ but no one should marry against their will.

Once a rebel always a rebel. I also like the mischief Merida’s three brothers get up to.

Don’t you just hate when you have to attempt to break up a fight, especially when you are enjoying the entertainment of it so much.

Merida’s brother’s sure do like those buns. It is amusing to watch the lengths they will go to get hold of some.

Just when I thought all was lost, Merida uses a loophole to break the rules. This and the resulting argument is although not nice to watch had to happen for the storyline to move on.

What has the spell done? Well changed fate, so Merida did get value for money/what she paid for.

This film is not what I expected. I thought Merida would be more of a great warrior as this is what the title Brave meant to me and not a daughter trying to escape marriage. 

Will everything be sorted by tomorrow? Not so far.

It is funny now the ‘Tables have turned’. It is nice to see a mother and daughter connection, even under the circumstances of the change of destiny,

This film also high-lights that just because you learn to sow and/or all the life skills needed as a wife, which ultimately could become useful, it doesn’t mean you have to become a wife, well until you are ready, if ever, to be.

It is nice to see mother and daughter restored. The rift between mother and daughter has been repaired, and of course, the mother is no longer a bear. the fact that being a bear could have been permanent kept me on the edge of my seat.

The theory for this film is the Witch (Julie Walters), is the little girl Boo in another Pixar film Monster Inc, looking for/remembering Sully. There is a picture representation of Sully in this film. The magic in the land, used by the Whisps, would later develop over the years and become the basis for the superheroes in The Incredibles, which is the next film in the Pixar Theory.
