Wreck-It Ralph

Well it's not 100% accurate. After all they made Zangief a villian even though he never was one in the Street Fighter games. Although every adaptation of Street Fighter, from the movies (live action and animated), cartoon, and anime like to make him one.

Maybe that's why he's in the support group. Because no one understands he's not supposed to be a villain.

I thought there werent anymore Princess movies in development.

This isn't a princess movie.

I know it isnt. I misread a post thats all.

XD

I know. I was talking about what would happen if Wreck-It Ralph characters (who do know they're in a video game) appeared in Kingdom Hearts (a video game series including Disney worlds and characters, where the characters don't know they're in a video game). Just a thought.

I think Ralph would be a summon. He'd thrash things. Or maybe he'd be a castaway character like Merlin and the like.

Ralph would kind of ruins Beasts whole 'Disney character travelling worlds because he's a badass determinator in love' thing if he could do it so easily as well.

But he wouldn't be moving across worlds unless he was a summon like Tink and Dumbo and stuff.

Presumably he wouldn't be moving across the Disney worlds in the KH universe. He'd be moving across video games, and he'd end up somewhere in the Kingdom Hearts video game.

How else would a WIR world work though? Halloween Town-style seems way too limited when WIR seems like it would need to be done like KH rather than only a mere world in a KH game.

WIR appears in a Tron world

Here's Zangief's track record:

Live Action Movie: Villain who works for Shadaloo, albeit misguided and pulls a Heel–Face Turn at the end.

Animated Movie: Participates in a wrestling match run by Shadaloo against Blanka.

Cartoon: Villain with Honor Before Reason working for Shadaloo.

II V Anime: Villian working for Shadaloo, and fights to the death with American Guile.

Alpha OVA: Goliath-type brute working not for Shadaloo, but a new villian.

Manga: His hates Guile because he is an American.

Only the games (namely Alpha 3 and SFIV) and the UDON comics don't portray him as a Dirty Communist. Guess he can't get a break.

That reminds me: I hope they have some Tron/Space Paranoids arcade cabinets at the arcade in Wreck-It Ralph. It would be the perfect place for a shoutout to Tron.

This...looks...good. I don't understand.

They did allude to Tron being a possible cameo character at D23

Disney's CG has been good since Robinsons, where have you been?

Yeah, not sure where this guy's coming from either.

I meant the plot looks good. Not the CGI. Usually when people take on this sort of thing, they tend to maul it horribly.

Oh okay. The only thing I could possibly hate about the story is Vanelope helping Ralph learn the film's message when they become friends. Foils working together is a story element we have seen before all the time and what Pixar always uses again and again.

Anyone else reminded of Kid Radd?

Your link is the first time I heard of Kid Radd.

I'm worried the jokes won't be as clever as gamers expect them to be. Disney has always stayed with jokes that aren't that thought-provoking or clever, like Roger Rabbit had. So far, the "Will NPC in FPS for food" sign is the wittiest gag. Without lampshading detailed information about games, I'm afraid this film may be a case of They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot to hardcore gamers, but I hope that doesn't happen. We still need to see what audience this film is directed towards.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who liked Robinsons.

I wonder why they all reacted in shock when Ralph said that he didn't want to be the bad guy any more. What is Bad Anon's purpose, then, if not as an AA for villainy?

No one has posted the Youtube link yet?

Also, in the plaza shot, I think the mentioned Earth Bound characters are NP Cs, not Ness and Lucas. Specifically, I think they're a cop and one of the "iced coffee"-drinking/drunken dudes.

Sugar Rush looks like it'd be a lot of fun.

Just saw it. Finally, finally I can get a good look at what to expect from this. And I like it. A lot. Definitely putting it on my "to watch" list.

But Zangief isn't a villain. Just saying. He's not.
