Pixar if this movie isen't good, than we're giving you one more chance.
3 strikes your out. Though I admit it is hard to live up to such titles as the Incredibles and Toy story 3,
which in my mind are some of the best movies ever made.

Its not really a strike though is it. Its just not a home run.

After reading some of the reviews, I can't imagine Brave being fresh. I think it will be rotten, but in the 50% range, maybe 54%-58%. Too bad for Pixar. It's becoming more Disney-like with every passing year: just in it for the money, no longer the art.

oh come on people. if you already want to like it, then what does the tomatometer mean to you?

I'd say this might be one of the worst pixar movies overall, doesn't mean it will be horrible...but I think it'll be in the 70's. I tried to get a feel for it by watching all the trailers and featurettes and scenes available and it looks underwhelming. aggregating websites don't need a solution, these are professional film critics giving you a professional opinion. take it or leave it. the tomatometer is fine. if a movie is at 90% you very well may like it. if it's at 50% well half of the people probably won't like it. it's simple.

Just because every once in a while they have a film that doesn't work out or is "up to expectations" doesn't mean they are doomed or will forever make bad animation. Relax people Pixar isn't going anywhere.

Funny, I could have sworn I just clicked on a trailer for Soldiers of Fortune.

Are we really arguing whether Dreamworks is better than Pixar? Come on. Brave may not be a masterpiece (or maybe it is, haven't seen it) but its better than two hours of DA DA DADADADDADA CIRCUS DAD DA DADADADADA CIRCUS!

Ah. The problem with flying out the gate! As soon as the race becomes a steady one, still in the lead, people go, "LOSING!" So lame. So Pixar wanted to make a princess story. Big deal. How many more different versions can you tell?? Even Spielberg makes absolute garbage sometimes yet NO ONE utters a WORD and he STILL gets Oscar noms. Let's calm down, people- Pixar is far from fading and is still the most consistently successful studio producing films today.
