Insert Coin And Get Ready To...WRECK-IT RALPH!
17 years ago (good lord, I’m old), the Toy Story films made us all feel sadness, regret and triumph with our old toys.
This November, Disney intends to give the world of video games an animated tale all its own.
The flick? Wreck-It Ralph.
Here’s the idea behind the forthcoming 3D animated flick:
Wreck-It Ralph (John C. Reilly) longs to be as beloved as his game’s perfect Good Guy, Fix-It Felix (Jack McBrayer). Problem is, nobody loves a Bad Guy. But they do love heroes… so when a modern, first-person shooter game arrives featuring tough-as-nails Sergeant Calhoun (Jane Lynch), Ralph sees it as his ticket to heroism and happiness. He sneaks into the game with a simple plan—win a medal—but soon wrecks everything, and accidentally unleashes a deadly enemy that threatens every game in the arcade. Ralph’s only hope? Vanellope von Schweetz (Sarah Silverman), a young troublemaking “glitch" from a candy-coated cart racing game who might just be the one to teach Ralph what it means to be a Good Guy. But will he realize he is good enough to become a hero before it’s “Game Over" for the entire arcade?Between a unique and new plot, plus an absolutely amazing voice cast of talented comedic actors, I really think that Wreck-It Ralph could be a great movie this Thanksgiving.
The first teaser poster for the film was released today, so I’ve embedded it above. I’m pretty sure it’s gonna grab the eyes of the retro 8-bit lovers, for sure.
Wreck-It Ralph hits theaters on November 2nd, 2012.
