Wreck-It Ralph (Spoilers?)
13 years ago
See ya, Space Cowboy...
I'll try not to be spoliery here, but take the whole journal as such! Only Warning!
So yeah, the movie overall is, as expected, pretty darn good. The production on this is amazing, the movie looks great, does nice transitions with the different graphical styles, and was just awesome. I almost tear-jerked too during a certain scene! o:
Like some I was a little miffed at the idea of the fake games they threw in mixed with all the real ones, but it works out for the most part, you just gotta kinda IGNORE that factor. It transitions pretty well. The overall concept of the movie is fairly original, even if it plays out like most movies (Because that's how movies work, a-doi!).
The bits of the "Sugar Rush" racing game are WAY too Mario-Kart cloned, but hey, it was still neat to see it in action. And I just adore the way the movie plays out, to be honest. I was nervous it was gonna be bland or I would hate the cutesy bits or that I was just gonna drone it out, but it's well written for the most part, and fuck I wanna try a game like "Hero's Duty" sometime. XD
A lot of people left the theater pretty early in the credits, that disappoints me, only me and this couple stayed after. The little after-bonus wasn't great, but it was still a neat touch in my eyes, plus you got to hear exclusive music for the movie, a Japanese band known as "AKB48" did an original game song for "Sugar Rush" all in Japanese! o: Owl City had an interesting song in there too. Which brings me to another miniature, interesting point.
While I was doing some research on the movie, I learned that SKRILLEX had a song in there (remixed by Noisia or something like that?) and me and Dubstep really don't get along. I swallowed it though, and the scene where it played, I ADMIT, worked really well, and actually they played the portion of this 7 minute long song that wasn't very Dubstep heavy, as far as I could tell. Apparently that song is ORIGINAL to the movie too? I could be wrong though.
A lot of interesting mix and match in the film, and overall like I said, it plays out well. Not sure if I'd pick up the DVD, but it was worth my money to see for once in a long time! o:
Also, while it was cool to see a lot of the old characters, some scenes were flooded with oldies, so i didn't catch a lot of subtle hidden ones maybe? Bowser of course was in it, there is a bit where the villains end the meeting and say a motto of sorts, Bowser moves his mouth in it, but it's hard to tell any voices apart. He may have just been mouthing it? *Shrug* After that though, we really barely see the guys, and also Sonic's moment in the movie was silly, derp hedgehog!
So yeah, there you go, good movie, something like 1 9.5/10 or whatnot, because there is no such thing as a 10/10 movie! (well maybe, we'll see!)

While it was disappointing to hear that Bowser didn't get any of his own lines, I appreciate the heads-up about it, so I won't be going in expecting him to talk...
I almost always stay all the way till the end of the credits, and always surprised when people leave so prematurely... Did you see the Avengers? There was a pretty funny scene at the end of the credits there, and everyone else missed it but me! ^.^
Did you see it in 3-D? I will... also did you know that the game Ralph is in has been made into a real game? Perhaps the rest will to someday...
I'll have to post my own opinion of the film once I've seen it... In my own journal, so don't worry...
And no, I can't stand 3D, plus I need to wear glasses as is, so it always just blurs on me anyway. And yeah, I heard the arcade was made into the real deal. While it isn't as old as the movie makes it to be, I like the charm of it. I dunno if they actually made machines though? I know you can play a web-based version of it.
Yeah I wear glasses too, but I still love 3-D movies!
