Wreck-It Ralph

[Seluhir]

Loved this movie... I even liked Sarah Silverman's character, and I normally can't stand her.

My wife was a little put off by the romance subarc... but aside from that, she loved it too.

I didn't see Wreck-it Ralph when it was in theatres, but i picked it up at Wal-Mart a week ago, thought my kids (and kid sister) might enjoy it, not to mention myself. So glad i did! So many references to games that i love (or at least know of. For instance, when Ralph is going home from his Bad Anon meeting, did you notice the graffiti on the wall as he enters Game Central? "Aerith rules". And the FPS lady (can't remember her name haha) was hilarious.. all her snarky ways of referring to her underlings kept cracking me up. And of course her backstory ("One day, she forgot to do a perimeter sweep... It was her wedding day...").

anyways. My husband was disappointed there wasn't more of the well-known characters (ie Mario, Link, etc), but I imagine there was only so much that Disney could afford when it came to permissions. I was glad to see Bowser and Sonic anyways!

Loved Wreck-it Ralph. Never saw it theatres, but bought it in Blu-Ray when it came out. And the soundtrack as well. Want to make some enemies? Put on that Sugar Rush chorus as their ringtone. Damn thing's a huge ear worm.

HOnestly, it reminds me a lot of Tron - but animated and made for kids. Loved it completely though.

And Disney's got Fixit Felix Jr. as a playable game. For mobile, there's also Fixit Felis Jr. free, and an official Wreck-it Ralph app with an enhanced version and some adaptations of Hero's Duty and Sugar Rush.

They need ot add a commentary track and more licensed characters.

I think it said "Aerith Lives" . And I think the "all your base are belong to us" line appears in the same shot. Might also be a Leeroy Jenkins graffiti somewhere in the movie, forget exactly when though. The movie really is a lot of fun though, and I was actually surprised that they used as many licensed characters as they did, although I almost expected to see a little bit of KH thrown in there since it's partially a Disney game (some people are saying that an 8-bit Sora appears on the screen when they show the Tapper arcade game, but I'm not really sure that's who it is...).
Mario would have been there but he was late as usual

You may be right about the Aerith Lives thing: I've only watched it one so far, and only realized that there was something scribbled on that wall at the last second, and haven't managed to retrieve it from my kid sister since that screening to re-watch and verify lol. I'm sure there are LOTS of little goodies to catch if you can watch it over and over...
