As you are no doubt aware, the film tells the story of Princess Merida (Kelly Macdonald), who gets into serious trouble when she defies the wishes of her mother, Queen Elinor (Emma Thompson) and causes all sorts of problems for everyone, including her father, King Fergus (Billy Connolly) and the country's chief Lords*, Lord MacGuffin (Kevin McKidd), Lord Macintosh (Craig Ferguson) and Lord Dingwall (Robbie Coltrane).
**Brave **hits our screens on August 17, almost two months after its US debut, which can only mean that Pixar hates us and wants us to suffer. WHAT HAVE WE EVER DONE TO YOU, YOU HEARTLESS GENIUSES?! Ah, we can't stay mad at you. Just make sure it gets here asap.

*Lairds, surely?
