>> Crazy Nate: I, you don't need to adjust your screen, I may have ran over a smurf on
the way here.
>> Schtroumpf Téméraire: Up the smurfing creek without a paddle.
>> Crazy Nate: Let’s look at another Pixar movie, Today's Fate will have us traveling
to the 10th century hills of Scotland,
to find all the Easter eggs and secrets that Merida hid in the movie Brave.
(intro Music Plays)
Merida was the very first Pixar character to be made a Disney princess.
Before we even open the case to your Blu-ray or DVD, look at the cover if you have the
Ultimate collectors edition you will see Mor’du the bear hiding in the background.
However if you have the standard DVD you're not gonna see it.
One thing you could see though, is in the posters of the theaters advertising for Brave
we see what appears to be her mom Queen Elinor.
Also in the Logo for Brave we see Merida in the B, and Queen Elinor is in the E.
The Pizza Planet truck has been around since the beginning of Pixar’s life in Toy Story.
In Brave we can see the witch carved it out of wood.
>> the Witch: Wood carver.
>> Crazy Nate: This makes a lot of people question who in the world is the Witch,
and how does she know about Pizza Planet.
Now a lot of people think that She’s Boo all grown up from Monsters inc,
and this is because she's stuck in a time traveling spell to try and find Sully.
However I think it’s just a clever way to put the pizza planet truck in to a 10th century
time era.
Another thing we get to see though that adds to this conspiracy is that inside the Witches
cabin, we actually see a carved wooden version of Sully.
The real reason that we see Sully though is because Monsters University was the very next
movie after Brave,
and they like to hide easter eggs to their next movie in their current movie, remember?
But some people think that this helps explain the Witches fascination with Bears, because
they look a lot like Sully,
OK, fine, so they put Sully in the movie just because they needed a reference to the next
movie which was Monsters University.
So that explains why Sully is there.
But then why is Sully on the table again, or then he's hanging up on the wall again!
Sully is literally all over the place in this little witches cabin.
OK some people are still questioning whether or not this is still an older version of Boo,
Well perhaps you noticed something else, Boo is fascinated with the door.
And every time she goes through this door, the room magically changes.
So today's survey question is this, do you think Boo from monsters inc is also the Witch
from Brave?
Vote now.
Now Cars 2 was the last Movie to come out before Brave, that’s why in the pub we see
a cars version of the tapestry in Cars 2.
If you watched my cars 2 video you already know about this one, if you don't I wont judge
you if you go back and watch it now.
Another first in Brave was this was the first time Pixar ever had nudity in one of their
movies.
>> King Fergus: Right.
>> Crazy Nate: Even with this moment, Brave is still rated PG.
Fun little fact, traditionally they don’t wear anything under their kilts.
So when Lord Dingwall lifts his kilt, he’s showing everything, that’s why this scene
is really gross.
>> King Fergus: Well, that's just grand now isn't that.
>> Crazy Nate: You don’t believe me, well watch this.
>> Lord Dingwall: Feast your eyes.
>> Crazy Nate: John Ratzenbereger has been Pixar's good luck charm since day one, he's
always been a voice of one of the characters.
In Brave, John is Gordon the Guard.
>> Gordon: I their coming.
I'd like to announce the arrival of the large.
>> Crazy Nate: In case you're not as artsy as me, Michelangelo has a famous painting
that seems to find its way into a lot of movies, like a lot a lot.
The Witch here made a bear version wood carving of the painting with God touching his finger
to man.
Some people think that this movie has a little too much nudity and violence.
The fight scenes though were actually originally much more intense than what we saw.
But they pulled back the fights just a little bit to make a little less violent.
In fact there are over 100 deleted scenes for the movie.
But if you watch the violent scenes really closely they put a lot of comedy in there
to make it less violent.
This horn sounds a little bit familiar.
Kind of like the horn they used in Bugs Life to warn the ants of when Hopper was arriving.
>> Flick: They're here.
>> Crazy Nate: This isn’t the first time we’ve seen someones teeth knocked out in
a fight, does this scene look familiar?
Remember Mulan we see a guy get his teeth knocked out.
If you Pay close attention to Queen Elinor when she's in bear form, she doesn’t just
randomly turn into an evil bear at any random time.
She only turns bear like when it involves food.
Every single time she turned into bear form it was because of food.
>> Merida: Mom?
Not now, no, please not now.
>> Crazy Nate: Then she turns back into mom mode when she's almost ready to hurt someone
because that's the furthest thing from her personality.
Scotland also has a real place like this called the Callanish Stones on the isle of Lewis.
And just like in Brave, there’s a lot of mystery to what the stones are really meant
for.
Another part of Scotland's history that they're famous for is the Loch Ness Monster.
One of the many scenes that were cut was one scene with a loch ness monster.
>> Bing Bong: There's dejavu
>> Crazy Nate: However it made too many questions for the movie like what is this thing and
everything like that.
So they decided to cut it.
However still see a sneak peak to this mysterious creature on the map.
In the credits they pay tribute to Steve Jobs for his work and dedication to Pixar.
They also named these two characters after apple, which is Steve Job’s company.
That’s right Lord Macintosh and his son Young Macintosh are named after Apple.
Also in case you haven't noticed by now, Lord Macintosh looks like his war paint is straight
out of the movie Brave Heart.
Though this idea isn’t confirmed, what Pixar did confirm is the reference to Brave heart
at the beginning when they're flying through the clouds.
That was a reference to Brave Heart and Sound of Music.
>> Baronin Maria von Trapp: The hills are alive...
>> Timon: Very nice.
>> Crazy Nate: Also I can't seem to shake the feeling that Lord Macintosh looks a lot
like co-director Mark Andrews.
Let's go back to the Witches cottage for a moment there are a lot more easter eggs in
there.
The black widow is a known sign for death, and the door knocker is in the shape of a
black widow, so you're literally knocking on deaths door.
Also the old witch herself even walks like a spider.
Above the door we also get a chance to see our famous A113.
Now I know it doesn’t exactly look like A113.
That’s because it's written in Roman numeral.
So obviously the A represents A.
The C represents 100, x represents 10, and the three ones obviously is for three, making
this sign say A113.
>> Kid: Partner.
>> Crazy Nate: When the witch has a potion made answering machine it blows up at the
end just like the original mission impossible shows they had an answering machine that blew
up at the end.
At the table near the door there is a wooden carving of the Pixar ball.
And I also think this shield is a mid-evil version of the Pixar ball, with the star in
the middle and a line around it.
Now I didn’t find the famous Pixar Luxo lamp, but I found something dating to before
the lamp.
That's right, Pixar's original logo.
Basically their logo used to be a big block with four little dots sitting below it.
The windows just happen to have four little dots.
Meanwhile back at the witches cottage, earlier the Witch makes a potion, and this scene resembles
the Evil Queen from Snow white a lot,
They obviously are both old witches, they both have a black crow, and they even tease
us by making us think she's gonna pull out an apple.
Only last minute it turns into something that looks quite delicious even though it taste
like your moms used shoe.
But they did put an easter egg in the pot for Pixar, the weird little lizard she just
threw in.
That's not just any lizard though, that’s Newt that was going to be a movie that Pixar
almost made, but then they canceled it, but this isn't the first we saw the newt and it
probably isn't going to be the last we saw Newt.
We also saw him in Toy Story 3 on the back of Andy's bedroom door.
During the dinner scene it looks like one of the triplets was playing with his food
making what appears to be Mr. Potato head.
>> Mr. Potato Head: More like a misfire.
>> Crazy Nate: However it’s not actually a potato in fact it’ called Haggis, and
it’s a very common dish in Scotland.
Basically it's all sorts of interesting guts shoved inside a stomach and cooked.
>> Queen Elinor: Now how do you know you don't like it if you don't try it.
That's just a we sheep's stomach.
>> Crazy Nate: When these red headed triplets of terror are stealing the goods we see a
hidden mickey laid out in the rope.
Also they have the same hidden Mickey somewhere in Disneyland.
When the fake bear is running through the castle The triplets keep going through all
these little hidden tunnels and crawl spaces, this is just like the real castle in Scotland
that Pixar went to when they were researching the movie.
>> Castle Guide: Subterranean chambers undiscovered.
>> Crazy Nate: If you actually own the movie Brave then you want to go watch the extras.
At one point they tease that there's going to be Brave 2.
>> Brenda Chapman: That she's going to make this amazing queen one day, I can write a
happy ending for Merida and mom, and I'm sure we'll have on too.
>> Crazy Nate: Some times Pixar likes to hide post credit scenes in their movies, and Brave
is one of those movies that you wanna watch past the credits because you're gonna get
to see this scene.
>> Black Crow: Delivery, sign here.
Sign here.
Come on, bird brain, haven't got all day.
>> The Witch: Expect delivery of your purchase within a fortnite.
Fortnite!
Fortnite.
Have a lovely day.
>> Crazy Nate: In case you're wondering what a fortnight means, no in this case in this
case it doesn't mean fortnite the game, it means two weeks.
>> Count von Count: And you know what that means, yes, two is the number of the day.
>> Crazy Nate: Fun little fact is that the wisp is actually a real thing in real life.
What?!
That's right I said it, it's real, in Scotland there is a gas that comes out of the ground
and it is ignited by static electricity and it's blue.
Legend has it that these wisps will find lost travelers and if they like you they'll lead
you to safety.
If they don't like you they'll lead you to danger.
That's why sometimes we see the wisp lead Merida to safety, and sometimes it lead her
to certain almost, completely dead.
Death, she almost died.
