Dementeleus Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Speaking of Katniss/Merida/Hawkeye, I was listening to one of the local NPR stations a couple of months ago and they interviewed an archery expert and asked which of thm had the best technique.Merida won, hands down. He was very happy that the Pixar team had really done their homework. But he was very impressed with Jennifer Lawrence and said she was excellent and if she wanted to, could become a really good archer. (Hawkeye was a complete fail, he said his technique was so bad he was just all over the place). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 (edited) Why are we comparing Merida/Katniss?The idea of Brave went into production before THG was even released, so the point is moot. And Merida is an infinitely better role model than Katniss ever will be (an emotionally distant and reserved girl that lacks the ability to make any true friendships in the entire series). This isn't an attack on Katniss. I enjoy reading about her character, but she's not someone you would invite to dinner or a movie. Merida, on the other hand, definitely is.Great number for Brave.

Lordmandeep Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Hawkeye style makes no senseKatnis really looked like she was firing a bow in real life.Clearly a Banner year for Archery... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 (edited) To be fair I always wanted to learn how to shoot a gun but I think Archery is more interesting now.Lets not forget the increased popularity of shawarma Edited June 23, 2012 by Lordmandeep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniNate Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 There's just something more graceful about archery as opposed to guns. I guess it would be the weapon of choice for those who don't really want to be in combat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniNate Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Whatever reason it's happening, I'm sure glad it is. They're both solid films that deserve to make a lot more than The Lorax did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
