Why Ralph Breaks the Internet is a Cinematic Disaster

One of the biggest missed opportunities was how the sequel was about the internet and not modern gaming. What if Sugar Rush became a online console game like Mario Kart, while Ralph was still stuck in his 80s game? They could have explored how retro arcade games struggle to remain relevant in modern times.

This is Disney’s film for saying “how do you do fellow kids.”

Ralph murdering Collen's internet probably saved an innocent child

Ralph Breaks the Internet is 10/10 simply because Ralph prevented Colleen from texting minors.

Ralph in the first movie: smart, but acts unintelligent as a defense mechanism Ralph in the second movie: his unintelligence is not an act

"The internet is not nearly as impressive as how Sonic described it" is truly a line that radiates power. Just a shame it existed in a void that could not make use of it.

Fun fact: Big Hero 6 was originally apart of the marvel universe. A kind of Japanese Avengers team. At the end of the movie, Stan Lee makes a cameo. Not many people know this, I just wanted more people to know about this information.

Why the hell did they need to go The Internet? They already introduced us to an immersive, wonderful world in the first movie: THE ARCADE! Why couldn't we spend time in the other games' worlds and characters we were breifly introduced in the first movie. Its called WORLD BUILDING!

One of the absolute WORST parts of this movie to me is that the sugar rush machine magically becomes a single player game to fit the plot

The biggest problem, for me personally, is how they jacked up Ralph’s character so much. I rewatched Wreck -It Ralph and the man was very smart. (Like when he pointed out that Vanellope was on the side of the console meaning she was part of the game) he was also quite mature as well and had dreams that were justified. They made him so stupid and so selfish that it just ruined the whole thing for me. And his obsession with Vanellope in the second movie made me very uncomfortable.

Ralph is the one with the character arc where he learns that it's "ok to be a bad guy" in the first movie. Why did they think they needed to make Ralph the one with the arc again in this one? It's definitely Vanellope's turn. After Sugar Rush breaks, the racers go on to a sequel game but Vanellope is bored with the same old thing and doesn't want to live out the rest of her life in another Sugar Rush. While introducing Ralph the internet she Turbos into Slaughter Race and Ralph gets mad at her, but they discover that it's actually fine, because there's an online poll to add a new racer to Slaughter Race and all the guest players are temporarily playable until the vote. It's a legit way for Vanellope to "go turbo" (online games add guest characters from other games all the time, so it's way more believable that this would happen in a non-arcade game). They go to the internet to make Vanellope more popular to win the poll, and Ralph would find that he had the talent for making viral videos. He starts by using the popularity to get votes for Vanellope. Maybe Ralph has a mini-arc where he lets the fame get to his head and forgets why he started doing the viral video thing and starts doing it for clout and atttention. The REAL arc could be that Vanellope is the insecure one. She wants to branch out and loves Slaughter Race, but sees herself as a dorky little kid. The other racers from Sugar Rush shame her for trying to broaden her horizons. Her new friend Shank unintentionally treats her like a baby instead of an equal despite the fact that they're both great racers. They lose a race to Mystery Racer X, a boss that Shank "can never beat". Even though it's clearly not Vanellope's fault, Shank lashes out with gamer rage and blames her for the loss calling her a "candy-coated brat". Now our heroine can't even rely on Ralph and gets mad at him because he's obsessed with internet clout. To top it all off, she sees negative comments about her online thanks to the impending poll and gets really down on herself. The climax of the movie is Ralph realizing the poll is about to close and Vanellope is losing badly. He uses his platform to make a heartfelt and real plea for people to help out Vanellope and explains how amazing she is as a racer and how ride or die she is. As a result, his audience helps Vanellope win, but they stop watching Ralph because "he's not funny anymore." The message can be about the internet being fake as f@#$ and that your real friends should keep you grounded and be the ones who reaffirm you, not random idiots online. The Sugar Rush racers have one last run with Vanellope and buy her a more mature new racing jumpsuit as a going away gift. The movie ends with Ralph hanging out with Felix and his other buddies, watching his friend head off to her new job at Slaughter Race. As a stinger, Shank tells her that the new jumpsuit is cool and apologizes to her, saying that Vanellope just reminds her of her younger sister, who is actually the Mystery Racer X that beats her all the time. Just as she says that, the Racer drives by and they both hop into their cars to chase her. There. Movie fixed. I wrote that in like five minutes Disney.

Why is Ralph saying, "Thanks Satan" literally the most perfect meme ever?...xD

Vannelope says nobody will miss her when she leaves Sugar Rush, but I can't help but feel like that girl who picked her in the beginning of the film and said she was "Her favorite" will be very saddened to see her gone.

Ralph in #1: mentor, parental almost, Ralph in #2: some old guy who reallllyyyy likes hanging out with a pre-teen girl

10/10 movie solely because Ralph completely removed Colleen from the internet. Thank you Ralph

This movie should be called: We own everything and make terrible sequels and we want to remind you of that: The Movie

This movie was the biggest "Well hello, fellow kids" movie I've ever seen

Imagine how much better the movie would've been if Ralph was actually Ralph and he said, "young lady, you are going turbo! You're grounded!"

7:40 Little did he realized, Ralph had saved the kids

wikipedia is hard to cite as an academic source not necessarily because it's unreliable but because it's a living document that isn't peer reviewed where it's notoriously hard to confirm the actual author of a piece!! it's perfectly fine for everyday information as long as you skim to confirm the sources!!! ur so right abt the movie tho king
