AniNate Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 ^ Yeah, I know I shouldn't be surprised because it is the interwebs after all, but it still makes me shake my head. Scottish accents - it's a HTTYD ripoff!! Fighting princess - Mulan!! There's a girl in it too. They ripped off Salt!! Oh, and the bear?? They ripped off The Jungle Book!! Oh, and there was an arrow flying through air... JUST LIKE ROBIN HOOD!! OMG, there was a queen, JUST LIKE THE QUEEN!! And there's TREES in it! Just like Avatar!

ddddeeee Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 The way Thompson says, "... elegant pursuits" really makes me laugh for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab276 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I read somewhere that this is the first major studio film to ever have a Scottish female as its protagonist. Is that true? Given how specific that claim is, I wouldn't be surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robertron Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Didnt really like the new trailer. Shouldve stuck with the teaser. 41m OW 142m DOM $60m UK/Ireland Some other amount of money for the rest of the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 (edited) Given how specific that claim is, I wouldn't be surprised. We're not talking about Uzbekistan here. Scotland's had a lot of movies made about it, it would be surprising if every single one of them until now had a male protagonist.

kayumanggi Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Over 350M OS is my prediction. I'm thinking 400 M. Could be 500 M depending on the release dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letsuseournoggin Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 500M seems like a stretch, IMO. But 400M are very possible. I think 500 isn't too much of a stretch, but I also don't believe that this will hit that either. If Up could go for over 400M, I could see this matching that run or surpassing it OS.

Kevin Bacon Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Meh.... I feel the same way about this as I did about Up at this point in time. Of course, Up turned out being awesome, but I refuse to be sure this will go the same way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They pretty much always have lame trailers though, so I perhaps this will live up to the Pixar name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK007 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Pixar trailers are never good, people. I don't mind comparisons to How to Train Your Dragon and such because that was an awesome movie. But some of the comments around the Internet really show the stupidity of people and that is quite sad, Whoot summarizes quite aptly the idiocy of some comments and commenters. What I do have a problem with is some of the animation which will be touched up anyway, the jokes don't really hit, but that's not surprising either since Pixar movies don't really make me laugh and some of the best moments are never shown, but my main problem is the mother as I have said before. Hopefully she isn't a generic mother or a father masquerading as a mother because I already KNOW Merida will be a fully awesome character, it's just that if her mother isn't as strong to make her feel/go in the direction the story wants to, then it suffers. Maybe it's because the animation of said woman is off which is why I also feel it but really I don't want another generic Disney mother story out of the mother.
