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..."

Compassionately intolerant
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!

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen
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.

move out and draw fire
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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
All that and making up asspull too? Where do you find time for hookers and blow?
