History Funny / Brave

** He gets another great expression not too long into the scene when Elinor admits to her own reservations about her marriage, his face just screams a mixture of "What?!" and "I don't think I was suppose to hear that!"

* When the triplets meet Bear!Elinor, Merida has to bribe them with desserts to get them to keep their mouths shut about it to the other lords. Therefore, when the triplets [[spoiler:are transformed into bears ''themselves'']], Merida's blunt order and their subsequent ''obedience'' of that order can bust a gut.
-->'''Merida''' ''(coercing the triplets into hiding Elinor's transformation)'': I'll give you two... three weeks of my desserts.\\

** Which then leads to [[NakedPeopleAreFunny a sight]] that most people [[FanDisservice probably wouldn't have expected to see]] [[RefugeInAudacity in an American PG animated film.]]

* The brawl that breaks out after Lords Macintosh and [=MacGuffin=] mock Dingwall, who sics his son on Macintosh like an attack dog. The funniest thing is [[LeftTheBackgroundMusicOn the bagpipes playing]] during the brawl. It stops when the brawl stops, but resumes when the brawl is resumed when the triplets hit Dingwall's foot with a mace. It only stops for real when Elinor [[UnflinchingWalk calmly marches into the middle of the brawl]] and walks back to the thrones dragging Fergus (who joined the brawl when it resumed) and the three clan lords by their ears like naughty schoolchildren.

** When she says "She does nae doodle," and it's a picture of Elinor holding up the picture.

** [[spoiler:the bit at the end with her ending up with the fearsome, scarred-up warrior, who is clearly entirely enchanted with her (which also counts as a heartwarming moment).]]

* Bear!Elinor runs into her sons...and promptly scolds them into behaving properly. The look on Merida's face when she walks in and discovers what's going on is priceless. When the triplets see the bear, not only do ''their'' [[JawDrop jaws drop]], but so does the jaw of the mounted deer head they were playing with. When they see Merida come into the room, they gesture towards Bear!Elinor as if to say "What the hell is going on?!", while Bear!Elinor gestures towards them as if to say, "Can you believe them?"

--> '''Bear!Elinor''': ''(makes a confused sound as if to say, "Bear?" then turns and sees the shadow of a bear on a wall but doesn't realize it's her own and freaks out)''

* Maudie's hand-flapping run of screaming terror; it's pretty much the only thing she ever gets to do, and the constant repetition of it is hilarious.

** Or when Merida orders them to get a key Maudie has. Maudie defiantly puts it [[VictoriasSecretCompartment down her bosom]]. The triplets get it anyway, by one of them eventually ''diving'' down in to get it.
*** When the triplets do manage to free their sister, one of them trips and ''lands on his face going down the stairs''. Catches you off-guard especially since it was supposed to be a serious moment with dramatic music.

*** ''Someone'' sending a herd of sheep into the middle of the fight (with one actually getting tossed into the air at one point).

* In the "A princess does not..." montage there's a few, like the scene where Merida and Fergus are falconing. Merida takes the hood off of her hawk, only for it to promptly attack her dad's face--along with Fergus's own hawk.
** And when she says "A princess is compassionate," you can see a maid in the kitchen behind her ''cut off a chicken's head.''
** Or when she says "She does nae doodle," and it's a picture of Elinor holding up the picture.

** Speaking of ''Song of Mor'du,'' the fact that Pixar put a drinking song in their film is hilarious.

** Also, [[spoiler:the bit at the end with her ending up with the fearsome, scarred-up warrior, who is clearly entirely enchanted with her (which also counts as a heartwarming moment).]]
* Even though it was a lead-up to a serious plot twist, Elinor's ill reactions during and after the eating of the bewitched cake were ActuallyPrettyFunny and realistically animated.
* Bear!Elinor runs into her sons...and promptly scolds them into behaving properly. The look on Merida's face when she walks in and discovers what's going on is priceless.
** Plus, when the triplets see the bear, not only do ''their'' [[JawDrop jaws drop]], but so does the jaw of the mounted deer head they were playing with. When they see Merida come into the room, they gesture towards Bear!Elinor as if to say "What the hell is going on?!", while Bear!Elinor gestures towards them as if to say, "Can you believe them?"

** It might have been intentional, given Macintosh mocking [=MacGuffin=] earlier and the little chuckle [=MacGuffin=] allows himself after the shove.
** Considering the look on his [[OhCrap face]] when it happened, and young [=MacGuffin=]'s [[GentleGiant character]] in general, that's probably not the case.
*** That's underestimating Young [=MacGuffin=]'s capacity for humor. Common translations of his brogue indicate that two of his three lines were smartass remarks--and pretty scathing ones at that. He might be able to get away with something like this because everyone thinks he's too kind-hearted and quiet to even think of pulling pranks.

** [[MamaBear And then she tries to shield]] [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming Merida from said bear with her own body.]] Say what you want, but going from funny to [[AdultFear scary]] to [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming heartwarming]] to funny again it wonderfully and hilariously CrossesTheLineTwice.
* Another one from the archery contest; pay attention to Young Macintosh's [[FanGirl fan girls]]. Every time they scream, the same two girls faint at the same time.
* And another: the [[Podcast/RiffTrax running commentary]] Fergus and Merida give during the boys' archery competition, while Elinor fumes in the background. Culminates when, after his shout accidentally makes Wee Dingwall hit the bull's-eye, Fergus starts to turn to tease Merida about what her new last name will be...except of course she isn't there any more.
* Shortly after Elinor's returned to her human form, Merida realizes that her mom's [[NakedPeopleAreFunny totally naked under the tapestry]] and points this out to her. When Elinor informs Fergus of this, he stares at her until she gets mad and tells him to stop. And when Fergus calls out the three clan leaders for ogling his wife, they nervously turn around.
** And then the triples run up to their parents and sister [[IncrediblyLamePun totally bare]].

** And when he throws his bow into the crowd in his fit, a fan in the distance catches it and yells "I got it!"... And everyone else cheers.

*** I thought it was funnier than pointing threateningly at her: it was more like they were saying, "Er...what now, boss?"

* After Merida and Bear!Elinor have left the castle, Fergus and the other clan leaders get down from the tower after being locked out by the triplets (who were running interference for Merida), using their kilts to make a rope.

* Bear!Elinor after her transformation scolding Merida about what she did, and she says, "There's no point in having a go at me," because Elinor's words are ''all bear growls''.

*** When they manage to free Merida, one of them trips and ''lands on his face going down the stairs''. Catches you off-guard especially since it was supposed to be a serious moment with dramatic music.

* In the "A princess does not..." montage there's a few, Like the scene where Merida and Fergus are falconing. Merida takes the hood off of her hawk, only for it to promptly attack her dad's face--along with Fergus's own falcon.

* Even though it was a lead-up to a serious plot twist, Elinor's ill reactions during and after the eating of the bewitched cake were insanely funny and realistically animated.
* Bear!Elinor meets her sons...and promptly scolds them into behaving correctly. The look on Merida's face when she walks in and discovers what's going on is priceless.

* In the ending scene, the three clans are returning home. As Merida and her parents wave farewell, Fergus notices the triplets waving back from one of the leaving ships. Cue Fergus rowing after them in a dingy, visibly grumbling. With his two deerhounds.

* Shortly after Elinor's returned to her human form, Merida points out that she's naked under the tapestry, and when Elinor informs Fergus of this, he stares at her until she gets mad and tells him to stop. And when Fergus calls out the three clan leaders for ogling his wife, they nervously turn around.
** And then the triples run up to their parents and sister [[NakedPeopleAreFunny totally bare]].

* When the triplets are [[spoiler:transformed into bear cubs]], Merida's reaction is a simply mildly annoyed "Oh, no."
* When the bear!triplets and Merida run out of the castle at the end of the movie, the second one trips down the stairs.

*** The bagpipers playing both times and calmly ducking to the side when a ''table'' was thrown their way.

When they see Merida, they gesture towards Bear!Elinor as if to say "What the hell is going on?!", while Bear!Elinor gestures towards them as if to say, "Can you believe them?"
* The entire archery scene, especially when Young Dingwall wins by accident. Before being cut off, Fergus starts teasing Merida about having "Dingwall" as her new name.

** And the triples run up to them [[NakedPeopleAreFunny totally bare]].
* When Lord Dingwall is introducing his son, everyone assumes he's pointing at a tall, handsome, and insanely ripped warrior. Every girl in the room, including Merida, ogles him...until Dingwall reveals his ''actual'' son (who was standing right behind the huge warrior).

* When the triplets are [[spoiler:transformed into bear cubs]], Merida's reaction is a mildly annoyed "Oh, no."
* When the triplets and Merida run out of the castle at the end of the movie, the second one trips down the stairs.

* The brawl that breaks out after Lords Macintosh and [=MacGuffin=] mock Dingwall, who sets his son on Macintosh.

When they see Merida, they point at Bear!Elinor as if to say "What the hell is this?!", while Bear!Elinor gestures to them as if to say, "Can you believe them?"

* The three Lords and Fergus acting like complete children for most film. By the time [[spoiler: Merida and her mom are sneaking back into the Castle]], they've divided the dining hall into four forts.

* Elinor telling Fergus she's naked as a wee baby [[spoiler: beneath the tapestry]], and he admires her appreciatively. Then calls out the other clan leaders for ogling his wife. They nervously turn around.

** Also, [[spoiler:the bit at the end with her ending up with the fearsome, scarred-up warrior, who is clearly entirely enchanted with her (which also counts as a [[{{Heartwarming}}/{{Brave}} heartwarming moment]]).]]

** "I propped it open with a stick!" ''(pan to the twins dropping said stick down the staircase)''
* TheStinger. Earlier in the film, Merida bought every single carving (so the witch would accept her offer of a spell). At the end, the guard wakes up to find the witch's familiar, [[BrickJoke and a cart carrying said carvings.]]

*** I thought it was funnier than pointing threateningly at her: it was more like they were saying, "Er... what now, boss?"

*** Fergus enthusiastically cheering on the proceedings until he catches a DeathGlare from his wife, at which point he begrudgingly gets to his feet to try and break things up... before quickly becoming embroiled himself.
* In the "A princess does not..." montage there's a few, Like the scene where Merida and Fergus are falconing. Merida takes the hood off of her hawk, only for it to promptly attack Fergus' face.

* When Lord Dingwall is introducing his son, everyone assumes he's pointing at a tall, handsome, and insanely ripped warrior. Every girl in the room, including Merida, ogles him... until Dingwall reveals his real son.

** Watch him closely during the second brawl. When everyone else is yelling and throwing things at each other, Wee Dingwall is ''chewing on the sharp blade of his axe''.

* The whole scene at the witch's cottage. First the witch does her level best to convince Merida she isn't a witch, just a poor harmless wood-carver--the lengths she goes to to make her case are hilarious, and if Merida hadn't already thought she was, her increasingly transparent BlatantLies would have given it away in two seconds flat--until her raven familiar finally gives the game away, at which point she just admits it and claims she was lying because of "unsatisfied customers". Then she won't let Merida stay unless she buys something...at which point she offers to buy her entire stock. Then when she finally does cast the spell for her, at one point she has an anachronistic (but adapted to the period) welding mask for herself (''and'' her familiar!). Finally, of course, there's Merida's return to try and find a cure for the curse, which leads to an [[ForInconveniencePressOne answering machine cauldron]] where each option is represented by a vial instead of a number (and an [[LargeHam overly ominous recitation]] of the CurseEscapeClause, complete with NightmareFace...that she repeats when Merida doesn't get it).

* In the ending scene, the three clans are returning home. As Fergus, Merida, and Elinor waved farewell, they notice the triplets wave back from one of the leaving ships. Cue Fergus rowing after them in a dingy, visibly grumbling.

** "Dead wood moving on its own? That'd be black magic! I should know, I'm a [[LastSecondWordSwap Whhhhiiiiiiitler]]--a whittler! Of wood!"

* [[FanDisservice "Feast yer eyes!"]]

** When Merida sees the crow and backs away screaming, "You're witch!", she hits her head on one of the beams in the ceiling.

-->'''Merida''': You're covered in ''fur'', Mother! You're not naked! It's not like anyone will ''see''.

* In the "A lady does not..." montage there's a few, Like the scene where Merida and Fergus are falconing. Merida takes the hood off of her hawk, only for it to promptly attack Fergus' face.

** Or when she says "She doth nay doodle." and it's a picture of Elinor holding up the picture.

** Plus, when the triplets see the bear, not only do their jaws drop, but so does the jaw of the mounted deer head they were playing with. When they see Merida, they point at Bear!Elinor as if to say "What the hell is this?!"

** Considering the look on his [[OhCrap face]] when it happend, and young [=MacGuffin=]'s [[GentleGiant character]] in general, that's probably not the case.

** There's also his telling the three Lords to "Show a little ''decorum!''" The last phrase you'd expect to hear from a Scottish Lord in that time period.

--> '''Merida''': B-B-Bear!

** Were they named [[{{WesternAnimation/Cars}} Mia and Tia]], by any chance?
*** In this setting, probably Maura and Torra.

** And when he throws his bow into the crowd in his fit, a fan in the distance catches it and yells "I got it!"... And everyone else cheers

*** And then she asks for seconds!

* ''Jinx crebbins help my bones!''

-->'''Fergus:''' There! There! That's my queen! Right, here we go. ''(takes a deep breath, and...)'' ''(high-pitched voice)'' I don't want to get married! I want to stay single and let my hair flow in the wind as I ride through the glen, firing arrows into the sunset!

** He gets another great expression not too long into the scene when Elinor admits to her own reservations about her marriage, his face just screams a mixture of "what?! combined with I don't think I was suppose to hear that"

** "I propped it open with a stick!" *Pan to the twins dropping said stick down the staircase.*

*** and then she asks for ''seconds!''

** "Dead wood moving on its own? That'd be black magic! I should know, I'm a [[LastSecondWordSwap Whhhhiiiiiiitler]] A whittler! Of wood!"
** "...and have a ''lovely'' day!" *BOOM*
