From AV Club:
Following up on the Coen Brothers’ hints that their next film would have “quite a bit of music in it,” the L.A. Times is reporting that the duo is working on a script set in the 1960s Greenwich Village folk scene, which had quite a bit of music in it, indeed. Specifically they’re said to be drawing from The Mayor Of MacDougal Street, the posthumously published memoir of Greenwich resident guitarist and guru Dave Van Ronk, who befriended and guided artists like Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, and Phil Ochs to greater fame and fortune than he would ever experience.
For those of you intending to skip Cars 2, and looking forward to the next Pixar offering, perhaps you've been thinking, "Hey, when are they going to get around to a lead female character..."
Teaser trailer for Brave.
And she's Scottish! FAQWife might even want to see this one!
Pixar has obviously been abducting me and extracting my fondest desires straight out of my brain.
I'll be first in line for Brave. For sure.
Oooh, that gave me chills! I haven't wanted to see an animated movie in a long time, but that looks awesome!
The three leads all play off each other really well, and the screwball/farce elements are occasionally brilliant, but...wow, that was a lot of rape jokes.
That's too bad. I was kind of looking forward to it.
Wait just a dang minute here.
Brave
appears to feature not only a female main character, but one who is to all appearances a HUMAN.
It's like I don't even know Pixar anymore.
I saw XM:FC. Loved the Eric/Charles, hated the racial stuff, and dear god January Jones just. stop.

I'm going to personally take credit for this because I pestered a Pixar higher up about this for four years. It's pretty much all me. Also, I storyboarded the opening to Up on the back of a Denny's menu, and just gave away Renderman because I didn't have time to fuss with it anymore.
