Wreck It Ralph Now Playing





Wreck It Ralph opened in theaters this past Friday, and over the weekend it hit #1!!!  Did you get to see it??

Ben Sr, the boys and I got to see it, and WOW!!  I honestly thought I wouldn't like it.  I am not really into playing arcade games.  

I loved the movie!!  There were so many references to things I knew, and subtle references that made all of the adults laugh and laugh.  

Ralph is tired of being the bad guy.  He wants some respect, and he figures the only way to get it would be to get a medal.  He decides to game jump so he can get one.  What Ralph doesn't realize is that by going "Turbo" he is endangering himself and his game!!

There are a ton of funny scenes and my all time favorite was when you see the guards and they are chanting "Or-e-o"  Making fun of the guards in the Wizard of Oz!!  

This is a terrific movie that I highly recommend seeing!!!

From Walt Disney Animation Studios and Emmy®-winning director Rich Moore comes “Wreck-It Ralph,” a hilarious, arcade-game-hopping adventure. For decades, Ralph (voice of John C. Reilly) has been overshadowed by Fix-It Felix, Jr. (voice of Jack McBrayer), the good-guy star of their game who always gets to save the day. Tired of playing the role of a bad guy, Ralph takes matters into his own massive hands and sets off on a journey across the arcade through multiple generations of video games to prove he’s got what it takes to be a hero.

On his quest, Ralph meets tough-as-nails Sergeant Calhoun (voice of Jane Lynch) from the first-person action game Hero’s Duty, and feisty misfit Vanellope von Schweetz (voice of Sarah Silverman) from the candy-coated cart-racing game Sugar Rush, who may just be his first real friend. But everything changes when a deadly enemy is unleashed, threatening the entire arcade and Vanellope herself. Ralph finally gets his chance to save the day—but can he do it in time? “Wreck-It Ralph” crashes onto the big screen on November 2, 2012, in Disney Digital 3D™ in select theaters.
