whoot Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Sounding more and more like Pixar took a risk here but just needed a bit more time to pull it off close to Pixar-perfect. Ah well. I'm still happy they took a risk here. Can't wait to see this for myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I hope we don't get another huge wave of negative reactions. I'm kind of liking the vibe right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cedarpoint1111 Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I didn't know this, but apparently there will be a Steve Jobs tribute at the end. http://blogs.wsj.com/speakeasy/2012/05/25/pixars-brave-pays-ghostly-tribute-to-steve-jobs/?mod=WSJBlog&utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggestgeekever Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 David Edelstein (fresh) http://nymag.com/mov...love-edelstein/ This review is probably what reflects my opinion on the movie the most, thus far. I didn't know this, but apparently there will be a Steve Jobs tribute at the end. http://blogs.wsj.com..._medium=twitter There is indeed.

Olive Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 they are too strict with Pixar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 MADAGASCAR lll is at 6.8. This one at 6.9. But the percent rating is different. 65% vs 75%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanboy Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Honestly, movies between 50-70% are reserved for generic kids movies that usually don't appeal to adults very much. Brave's score just seems out of place IMO. Animated movies usually get 60% by default if they send a good message, and Brave certainly does.

senmitsuji Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) MADAGASCAR lll is at 6.8. This one at 6.9. But the percent rating is different. 65% vs 75%. that's pretty much why I find RT unreliable. There are tons of movies with really high scores that have low avg ratings, and vice versa. metacritic > RT Edited June 18, 2012 by senmitsuji Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 So is BRAVE going to keep hanging around 60% like Sherlock Holmes 2 did until we get the final score? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
