Brave

As a fanatic of the Cars movie, it was only fitting that Logan's first movie theater experience was Cars 2. We were in Pawley's Island, SC with the Plummer family and the women thought they'd give the men a break by taking the kids out to a movie. We were outnumbered 2-1 and doing our best to keep the kids happy with popcorn and candy. The first image Logan saw on the big screen was a preview for Pixar's movie, Brave. Since the movie was still a year from release, they didn't have a full trailer at the time. Instead they introduced the movie with a big bear, standing on it's hind legs growling and snarling with the camera angle looking up at the bear as if you were underneath him and he wanted to eat you. After 10 seconds of that, the screen went to black and the word Brave appeared. The theater was silent... except for the voice of two-year-old Logan screaming "SIT WITH YOU!!"
He spent the rest of the movie in my lap, covering his eyes when appropriate, but thoroughly engrossed in Cars 2. He loved it.
I'm seeing full trailers for Brave now and wondering if Logan could handle seeing the movie in the theater. If the title of the movie suggests that bravery is involved, we may have to skip this one. At least while it's in the theater.
