I love that Merida's been added. All of the people who've continously said that Once isn't Disney can finally take some seats. Especially a certain annoying someone. :P Merida has no literary basis and was created from scratch by Pixar.

Anyway, I'm very happy Merida is here because I loved her movie, loved her story and if they don't make Merida Snow's archery instructor, then they are seriously missing out on a MASSIVE opportunity. There's not that many archers in the Disney universe (Mulan, Robin Hood and Merida being the ONLY ones that come to mind without any deep thought) and Merida is the only one left to be introduced. We know Mulan didn't meet Snow before 2A and Robin met Snow during the missing year.
