Brave, this movie is what recycling themes is about- A Princess that is forced to marry a suiter for her, wants to live in the wild, stand up to her parents, and is just too damn predictable!
yeah no.

*What has started this ridiculous new trend about taking real historical figures and classic fictional characters from the ages (Lincoln, Hansel and Gretel etc.) and rewriting them as bad asses? It's annoying and stupid.

I believe "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" was the first example of this trend, at least the first one I noticed.

It started as clever satire - the book ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER is actually quite brilliant - and then the bandwagon effect kicked in.  That being said, as a history teacher, I rather enjoy it.  FDR: AMERICAN BADASS is one of the most gloriously awful films I have ever seen!
