* Once he gets to ''Sugar Rush'', [[spoiler:Vanellope steals his medal, and it's inadvertantly destroyed]], Ralph totally loses it and proceeds to wreck anything he can smash in a fit of rage! It's a bit narmy and maybe hilarious to some until you really consider his situation. After a life of neglect from being a bad guy ''and'' finally doing the impossible and proving a bad guy can get a medal, he LOSES it before he can show anybody he knows! This was probably his ''only'' chance to get a medal the hard way, and now he's just back to face a life of utter torment! The look on his face screams, "Because I wreck stuff!! That's all I exist for right, World, you piece of crap!!!??" It's a few peoples' dream to be worth something, and even more people have given up on it already.

* Ralph bitterly saying 'We are ''not'' friends" to Vanellope when she offers to make a deal with him was pretty sad to hear, especially for those who already know what their friendship will mean to both of them later on in the movie.

* In a blink-and-you-miss-it moment from [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LEY2rO5Sl4 this]] faux-90's commercial for ''Sugar Rush'' at Litwak's, about 10 seconds, the player chooses a character. The cursor goes over Vanellope and she gets excited- then moves on to Taffyta. If you look close enough as the cursor moves on, she puts her hands over her face in a defeated, sobbing gesture.

** Vanellope is PluckyGirl personified, even before Ralph shows up. Imagine being trapped all alone in a world where everyone ignores or belittles you because of a condition that you have. Yet when we first see her she's no weeping mess. She confronts a guy twenty times her size and she's not intimidated in the slightest. She'll also do ''anything'' to achieve her goal, against the will of an entire ''kingdom.'' Can we give this kid a freaking round of applause?
