So I recently saw Wreck It Ralph and am just getting around
to blogging about it. At first it was just slightly strange to wrap my mind
around the idea of a movie of a video game, but I really think it was a unique
and clever idea.
I really liked the idea of the guy who was programmed to be
the bad guy wanting to be one of the good guys. I think it gave the movie an
overall prosocial feel to it. My favorite quote from the movie was when one of
the other bad guys at Bad-Anon, a bad guy support group, said: “Ralph, you are
bad guy, but this does not mean you are bad… guy.”
It was just kinda funny because it showed that the bad guys in video games and
movies are programmed to be bad, but could really be nice people (similar to
the idea of actors).
My husband particularly enjoyed this movie because it
reminded him of his childhood and presented videogames in a family friendly
way. He actually downloaded the game “Fix It Felix Jr.” (it was made
after the movie, not before it…) on his ipod touch after seeing the movie, so we
are now experiencing this movie through other methods of media.
The title you thought up totally caught my attention! I really enjoyed "Wreck it Ralph" when I saw it too
ReplyDeleteloved this movie! I really liked how they created this world of video games that we've never imagined before.
ReplyDeleteIt really was well done. It helps to be versed in video games to get the full effect, but even without that it's a good, enjoyable movie.
ReplyDeleteI thought the movie was clever as well. It had some good examples of different types of pro and antisocial behaviors.. interesting!
