Wreck-It Ralph Trailer

Disney has really nice looking animated film coming out later this year called Wreck-It Ralph. The film is about a video game character named Ralph who grows tired of being the bad guy and wants to find a new game and a new role. Disney has just released the first trailer for the film, and I'm totally buying it.

It has a very Pixar feel to it, no? The story seems a lot like Toy Story or Monster's Inc. Now, this is NOT a Pixar film, coming instead from the computer animation arm of Disney. Still, I hope that some of the Pixar magic rubs off on the characters and story.

I love the idea of a video game villain trying to change his destiny. It's packed with potential for a fun time. There are a ton of famous video game characters in that trailer, and it's going to be fun for the video game fans to find them all. Then, consider how much more of that sort of "Where's Waldo" fun we will get in the full movie. Good stuff! I think this movie should appeal to anyone who, like myself, has grown up with a steady diet of video games. The film hits November 2, 2012.
