whoot Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Brave wins GG.Don't get me wrong because I love Brave and felt it got the shaft from critics, so I'm glad it got some recognition... But I honestly thought this was WiR's to lose. For the GG at least. What do I know.I wonder what the academy will do... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 GG was WiR's best chance. They normally go for the populist choice usually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I'm sure there's a lot of sulking over Brave's upset, but personally I loved it and think it's totally deserved. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wormow Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Just finished watching Brave. Reminded me of both The Hunger Games and Brother Bear. It wasn't that bad, I gave it a B-. I haven't seen Wreck It Ralph yet but all I've been hearing from my friends were good things about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riczhang Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 There's a rumor going around that Pixar gave the HFPA a trip to entice them to vote for brave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Haha! I doubt Pixar are that low. But the HFPA would definitely accept that bribe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 GG was WiR's best chance. They normally go for the populist choice usually.Brave still made more money than WIR. The populist choice was Brave, and they picked it.Apparently, they didn't even invite Chapman to the GG... Awkward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awkward.Well the industry views is that Brave wasn't good per se so the populist choice would've been Brave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I'm confused.According to her twitter, Brenda Chapman, co-director of Brave who came up with most of the story and characters for the movie, wasn't invited to accept the Globe with Mark Andrews...

That's kind of sadistic. It's like they sent the assistant instead of the creator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
