We obviously all love moving images. If we didn’t, we wouldn’t be reading (or writing for) a movie website. However, if you’re like me and are extremely excited for the plethora of potentially awesome movies opening in 2012, right about now you are going to love the still image. USA Today has posted their 2012 movie preview and it includes brand new photos from several of the years biggest films.
The only one that’s a true first look is The Bourne Legacy (you can look at that here) but, after the jump, check out new images from Prometheus, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, The Avengers, Brave, Men In Black 3, Snow White and the Huntsman and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Read More »

The Dictionary.com entry on the word “Brave” lists ten different definitions. Number one is the most common usage: “possessing or exhibiting courage or courageous endurance.” Such as in Pixar’s 2012 movie, Brave. Move down the list and number four is “a warrior, especially among North American Indian tribes.” As in Major League Baseball’s Atlanta Braves. And while former usage is more common than the latter, the baseball organization has been around longer, owns the trademark on “Braves” and they’ve “formally filed an objection to many of the trademark applications” Pixar is seeking for their upcoming film.

Over the years, we’ve learned a lot about how Pixar develops and produces their feature animated films, but we’ve learned very little about how the beloved short films get created. So I decided it was time we find out. I shot a message over to Enrico Casarosa, the director of Pixar’s next short film La Luna, who was happy to shed some light on the process. “How Does A Pixar Short Film Get Made?” Find out, after the jump.

The teaser trailer for Pixar’s Brave was an absolutely gorgeous thing that showed off the studio’s first female lead, Merida, voiced by Kelly Macdonald.
Now here’s the full trailer, which introduces us to the film’s world and the gloriously exaggerated characters that inhabit it. This isn’t one of Pixar’s best trailer efforts, I think, but hopes for Brave remain high. Read More »
The trailer for Brave, Pixar’s next full-length animated film, will arrive tomorrow. In anticipation of that look at the film three new stills have come online. The pics show most of the film’s major characters, and reinforce the impression given off by the teaser that this might be Pixar’s most fully-realized world.
Brave is Pixar’s first film with a central female protagonist, and Kelly Macdonald voices Merida, a rebellious young princess who brings trouble to her land after breaking an ancient custom. That’s her in the image above, and you’ll meet other characters in the gallery below.

Pixar fans have been in their glory this week. Two new films, one about dinosaurs and another about the human brain, were announced, we learned a bunch more about Monsters University and their next film, Brave, finally came into focus. In previous months, Pixar chose to simply tease what we can expect from their Summer 2012 release but, at the D23 Expo, they began to peel the curtain back and now they’ve inched it back again. A brand new plot synopsis for the original fairy tale set in 10th Century Scotland has been released and you can read it after the jump. Read More »
The worst thing about Disney not allowing any cameras or phones into their big movie panel at last weekend’s D23 Expo is, instead of seeing gorgeous images from The Muppets, The Avengers, John Carter, Oz The Great And Powerful, Wreck-It Ralph and Brave, you get three film-bloggers on a rooftop.
In an effort to let everyone know what exactly was show at the D23 Expo, and what we all though of it, Germain Lussier and Peter Sciretta joined Alex Billington of FirstShowing to discuss the brand new footage from all of the above movies. The conversation, which took place on the roof of the Anaheim Convention Center with Disney’s California Adventure as a back drop, was long but we’ve got it broken down by time so you can pick and choose what you want to watch. Check it out after the break. Read More »
It’s hard to fathom that Brave, Pixar’s next feature film, is still almost a year away. To date, fans have seen the exciting, yet deliberately non-revealing, teaser trailer, a few concept images, and that’s about it. The D23 Expo changed that, though, as attendees got a much better idea of what June 22, 2012 holds. Director Mark Andrews and producer Katherine Sarafian presented footage on Saturday while production designer Steve Pilcher and art director Tia Kratter explained the visuals on Sunday. Combining the two panels, we learned a ton of new information. Is the Pizza Planet truck in the movie? When does the film take place? What visuals changed with the new director? After the jump, read 10 brand new Brave facts. Read More »
