Friday Blitz 4: Pixar party in 2012!!!

Start scrambling, the Friday Blitz continues!!!

Pixar, the best studio in history (yeah, I said it), is doubling up in 2012, proving that even if the Mayans are right, I'm going to die happy. First up in the summer will be The Brave, which is Pixar's first fairy tale (just typing that gave me chills). The provided plot of that film, which was once titled The Bear and the Bow, is as follows: “impetuous, tangle-haired Merida (Reese Witherspoon), though a daughter of royalty, would prefer to make her mark as a great archer. A clash of wills with her mother compels Merida to make a reckless choice, which unleashes unintended peril on her father’s kingdom and her mother’s life. Merida struggles with the unpredictable forces of nature, magic and a dark, ancient curse to set things right. Director Brenda Chapman and the storytelling wizards of Pixar conjure humor, fantasy and excitement in this rich Highland tale.” You hear that? A female lead who isn't a captured princess but a warrior? A female director? A PIXAR FAIRY TALE?!?!?! I love it. If that wasn't enough, and it was for me, Monsters Inc 2 will finally hit in November of 2012, 11 years after the original debuted. I always thought that particular world had much, much more to explore. Plus, it gives me hope that The Incredibles 2 may happen one day (ohpleaseohpleaseohplease). So, even if the year ends with us being swallowed up by the sun's neutrinos (oh, 2012, you were so stupid), I'm going to be okay with it so long as the apocalypse waits until December.
