The film pulled in $237.2 million at the domestic box office, putting it above many other Pixar projects, including titles like "Toy Story," "Ratatouille," and "WALL♾." It even pulled ahead of the lifetime gross of additional animated fairy tales on the market, such as juggernauts like " Aladdin." Even better, the box office success of "Brave" was not just limited to domestic theaters. But with Brave-tailored vacations running as high as $5,959 for adults and $5,659 for children-excluding international airfare-that’s gotta be some seriously inspirational beauty.Those worries ended up being misplaced, as "Brave" became a tidy hit in its theatrical run. The film has the character of Scotland, which is what you want when doing a periodesque piece. We wanted to collect enough details so we could bring them back to make it all very Scottish. We could only have found out all of it by actually going to Scotland. The variation of landscape and ecosystems makes everything feel very touchable, everything has texture. The grey, cool mist mixes in with the russet mountains. All the lochs and the trenches are so rugged it evokes the mysteries and legends that have come out of Scottish culture. You don’t find anywhere else on earth that has mountains like that. You can’t escape the grandeur and beauty of Scotland. In a Huffington Post interview, Mark Andrews, the film’s director, talks about his Scottish inspiration:
There are tours of real-life places that might look familiar to filmgoers, such as the Black House of Arnol and the Gearrannan Blackhouse Village (both were used as models for the witch’s cottage) and Dunnottar Castle, which played a role in the look of the DunBroch family’s house. The Los Angeles Timesreports on the festive itinerary: The trips will debut next spring and summer, well after Brave-mania has set in amongst the kids. The travel company Adventures by Disney has already designed a Brave-centric tour of Scotland. And Disney doesn’t plan on stopping there.
