Maybe it would have been better if they didn't switch the lead designer halfway through.
Are you referring to Brenda Chapman? Because there was an article about her not long after Brave first came out. Obviously she wasn't happy at getting the boot, but she was actually okay with the finished film. She felt that her original vision still came through.
"It is a matter of grave importance that Fairy tales should be respected.... Whosoever alters them to suit his own opinions, whatever they are, is guilty, to our thinking, of an act of presumption, and appropriates to himself what does not belong to him." -- Charles Dickens
I would have preferred it taking less from The Ten Commandments, especially Ramesses the Great as Moses's brother, which makes no historical sense.

Aside of the badness inherent in making MLP characters look like humans, it wasn't that bad. Though it definitely looks like a fanfic. Perhaps the writers have read a few
I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
I saw Despicable Me 2
Despicable Me was not one of those movies that needed a sequel, this was a blatant cash-grab and it felt so phoned-in and predictable as opposed to the warmth and heart that the original had. [It also smashed whatever empowerment the original may have given to single parents...notice how The Powerpuff Girls never saw fit to marry off Professor Utonium! Why marry off Gru?]
I am worried terribly that this franchise will go the way of Shrek and Ice Age and produce a line of increasingly shitty/phoned-in sequels (a movie centered around the Minions - who speak mostly in gibberish - is being made, and has been slated for December of next year!) all so Universal may sell more Minion toys...

Also, it irks me somewhat that celebrities whose names look good on posters are considered "top-shelf voice talent" when the voices they use for characters aren't anything special
Manny the mammoth is speaking in Ray Romano's ordinary voice...

This is the first time they've done anything new with it in a while, to my recollection...
This isn't without precedent; a live-action Maleficent movie is coming out next year (it's taken The Good Dinosaur's old May 30, 2014 date due to that movie's year-and-a-half delay)

It's too bad that DreamWorks quit doing traditional; they had a nice house style (a more angular version of Disney's)...

Which is surprisingly inspirational for a movie in which the lines that
do not contain the word "fuck" could be counted by fingers on one hand
