‘Brave’ Standees Start Hitting Movie Theaters

March 18, 2012 by Samad Rizvi Leave a Comment

With about three months until the release of Brave, the marketing for the film is now starting to push into the halls of movie theaters. Sure, trailers and posters for the Pixar film have been a mainstay in theaters over the past several months, but now standees have also started to pop up. Now, standees don’t sound all that cool, but the design of these cardboard cutouts is actually quite creative. Take a look at the great Brave theater standees after the jump!


Below are several images of what you can see at your local movie theater, courtesy of Pixar Times reader Eduardo.

First up is Merida along with her brothers Harris, Hubert, and Hamish:

Now, what exactly is Merida shooting at, you might ask yourself. Physically speaking, she’s shooting at Lords MacGuffin, Macintosh, and Dingwall, but symbolically, you could say she’s trying to take down tradition:

Here is the same standee from a slightly different angle:

Put those two standees together and you get a clearer picture:

Finally, Merida’s three little brothers are given their own time to shine:

What do you think of the standees? Have you seen them start appearing in your neck of the woods yet?

Thanks again to Eduardo for sending the images over!

Since ancient times, stories of epic battles and mystical legends have been passed through the generations across the rugged and mysterious Highlands of Scotland. From Disney and Pixar, a new tale joins the lore when the courageous Merida (voice of Kelly Macdonald) confronts tradition and challenges destiny to change her fate.

“Brave” follows the heroic journey of Merida, a skilled archer and headstrong daughter of King Fergus (voice of Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (voice of Emma Thompson). Determined to carve her own path in life, Merida defies an age-old custom sacred to the unruly and uproarious lords of the land: massive Lord MacGuffin (voice of Kevin McKidd), surly Lord Macintosh (voice of Craig Ferguson) and cantankerous Lord Dingwall (voice of Robbie Coltrane). Merida’s actions inadvertently unleash chaos and fury in the kingdom, and when she turns to an eccentric Witch (voice of Julie Walters) for help, she is granted an ill-fated wish. The ensuing peril forces Merida to harness all of her skills and resources – including her clever and mischievous triplet brothers – to undo a beastly curse before it’s too late, discovering the meaning of true bravery.

Directed by Mark Andrews and Brenda Chapman, and produced by Katherine Sarafian, “Brave” is a grand adventure full of heart, memorable characters and signature Pixar humor that audiences of all ages around the world have come to eagerly expect. The film takes aim at theaters on June 22, 2012, and will be presented in Disney Digital 3D™ in select theaters.
