Lowdown: Did you know that only one Pixar movie has grossed less than $200 million since 1999? "Cars 2" broke the studio's amazing string with just $191 million last year. And yet, it still almost broke the $200 million mark with the worst reviews of any Pixar movie ever. Therefore, while there are concerns that "Brave" may not appeal to young boys, the Pixar brand is too strong to discount. At a minimum, and on pedigree alone, "Brave" should be able to reach the $200 million mark.
