Let Me Be Your Teddy Bear

One of the actual Brave teddy bear from here

Okay, so if you've been following me on Twitter or read my last post, you know that I went completely crazy over the movie Brave.  Forget about whether it is 'as good as a Pixar movie,' I thought it was one of the best movies I've seen - Pixar or not, animated or not - loved it.  


Without giving away any spoilers or anything, bears feature quite prominently in the movie.  I know I'm a little big for taking a teddy bear to bed but here are some I saw that I thought I wouldn't mind sneaking in...

Dreaming of Scotland...

I finally got a chance to watch Brave on Sunday and it completely blew me away.  It was touching, funny, exciting and I can't wait to go back and watch it again.  Perfect.  Sigh.


Anyways, part of what I loved about the film was the breathtaking scenery.  I've never actually had Scotland on my short to-visit list (it's on the long one, don't worry!) but after watching this, it's shot right up to my list, bumping off Pierce Brosnan.  Wait, wrong list.  Well, you know what I mean.


Here are some photos that will have you dreaming in glens and lochs too.

Okay, so I don't have any desire to watch dark, edgy superheroes or Alien prequels but I am SO excited about this movie out next week.  So. Ex. Cited.  Who else?
