[Movie] Wreck-It Ralph (Disney film about video game characters)

A trailer for Disney's Wreck-It Ralph has been released, and it looks like there will be a ton of video game cameos (as expected).

I heard about this AGES ago. I actually thought it was about something else. You know, kid gets sucked into video game type story again. But now...im FAR more excited about it! Thats the first time i saw anything about that film other than the title. So its about a GAME CHARACTER going on a journey of self-discovery. That makes it so much more interesting, you dont even know. Plus all those game cameos! Zengeif, M. Bison, Q-Bert, Bowser, MARIO KART! And something that resembled a cross between Lara Croft and Samus.
YES PLEASE!

I edited the topic so people will go "yeah man!"

LOL at "Will NPC in FPS for food!" ohhh mann its gonna be one of those! You know, one of those things that totally affectionately rips on the subject matter.

Also judging from the trailer, the main character is a cross between Donkey Kong and the guys from Rampage. Also Bowser exists so Mario must.

This film is going to be soooooo entertaining!

I just hope theres a Zelda cameo in there somewhere!

SO the movie is like a combination of Toy Story and Who Framed Roger Rabbit? You know, for Toy Story the products are alive except they're pixels and not solid things and in ROger Rabbit well you get the idea

HOLY COW! This is actually a good movie! O.O
Can't wait to see it! You have no idea how long I waited for a movie like this. Finally a game with video game characters in it.

Omg omg omg omg omg *screams*


THIS IS SO COOL.

Best news I've heard all day everyday. So watching this!

And I agree with Flo here. I hope to see a Zelda cameo in this somewhere as well!

Genuinely looks like good fun though! They got Jane Lynch animated character's appearance bang on as well!

Disney and Pixar are pretty much run by the same person now.

This looks to be a great movie. I need to tell my mom about this since we played most of the games the cameos have appeared from so far.

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY

I'm hyped now.

It's like...

It's just a movie that is about video games. It's not trying to be about being awesome or intense, it's not trying to be about a specific game's plot or anything like that. It's just being a movie about games. Literally.

I am so hyped.

Holy ♥♥♥♥, look at the director's resume:

The Simpsons:
Cape Feare
Marge vs. The Monorail
Flaming Moe's
Stark Raving Dad
Bart the Murderer

Futurama:
Space Pilot 3000
Hell is Other Robots
Fry and the Slurm Factory
The Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings
Xmas Story

This will do fantastically if it is a good movie.

There will be so many gamers out there who will go to watch this just for the cameos.

Cool idea, and +10 points for use of "Once in a Lifetime."

But trailer didn't really do much for me.



ps

Makes me more impressed with the marketing campaign, but doesn't do much to heighten my interest in the movie.

The novelty of the concept is cool, but from what I can glean of the story it seems to be a pretty by-the-numbers "villain who isn't really a villain" kind of deal.

Obviously I'm hoping it'll be a good and entertaining movie, and given Disney's more recent track record I'd say that's even the likeliest scenario, but I didn't find myself engaged with what the trailer showed at all.

I hope so too, but considering the majority of the movie is about Arcade video game characters, I have a feeling we won't see Zelda characters. Of course, the only thing I can think of is maybe Ralph will try different video games (like he did with that Halo-like video game). It's quite possible there's some sort of video-game-unemployment office to see what new job/video game would suite him.

I'm not sure whether to thank him or punch him.

Thank him and Matt, punch Seth MacFarlane.

Oh i wouldnt be sure of that. It looks like Ralph makes it into a Metroid/Tomb Raider type game and plus its the entire gaming universe. Theres sure to be platform crossing as part of many gags.

Anticipated. :B
