• Awesome Music: The soundtrack will feature five songs, one of which will be sung by Julie Fowlis, who had another song first featured in this TV spot. Other performers include Birdy with Mumford & Sons, Billy Connolly, and Emma Thompson.
• The teaser: Mérida is faced with a gigantic bear, and doesn't flinch as she fires an arrow into its face. All while surrounded by perhaps the most gorgeous Scenery Porn Pixar has created to date.
  • The newest teaser has Mérida stepping up to the archery contest in defiance of the prize of her hand in marriage, striking every bulls-eye and then cleaving the winning arrow in HALF with amazing precision. All the while her mother is shouting at her to stop. The teaser ends with them glaring at each other. For a Disney/Pixar Princess, that's pretty badass.

"I am Mérida, an' I'll be shooting for me own hand!"

• • If you look closely as she fires the arrow, you can see the fletching of the arrow cut her cheek. That's attention to detail.
    • That whole scene is a MOA for the Pixar animators. The way the arrow bends, and then spins? Seriously freaking cool.
• This quote (quote quoted from article including quote):

Mérida tells her that she isn’t marrying anyone. Then she fights bears.

• Honestly, I'd say that anyone who likes fiery redheaded Scottish women probably sees the movie itself as pretty damned awesome.
• At the end of the "Family Legends" trailer, Merida leaps in slow-mo to escape from Mordu as Bear!Elinor holds a paw out to grab her hand and Mordu's claw swings toward Merida.
