I'm not sure if anyone is looking into this film about a video game villain from the 8 bit era out to prove he's a hero, but not only is it looking like an original idea, but there will apparently be many video game characters like these guys:

In the middle screen you can see Bowser, Zangief, and Robotnik. Just thought I'd make a thread for this piece of news! Feel free to use it for future updates.
Sounds interesting. Hope it's as good as Roger Rabbit.
Yeah, I think that's what they're going for. Sort of like Roger Rabbit was for animation this will be for video games.
At least I hope they don't mess it up.
I wish to remain hopeful, but video games have never really crossed over to other media that well.
At the very least, some of these cameos should be worth a watch. Hope they go all the way and bust out some obscure stars from forgotten arcade and home entertainment games.
I honestly haven't been keeping up with this one as much as I have other movies in the DAC, but the concept is pretty cool.

This is just a taste of upcoming character cameos that will appear in the movie. Chun-Li and Zangief? Yes, please.
Q-bert!
I think there's others in the background. Like is that Ryu Hayabusa over the right cherry?
If I squint hard enough, I can see what you mean.
But yeah, this has the potential to be a lot of fun.

If a movie of any sort were to put in any reference to Ninja Gaiden (especially classic 8-bit NG), I'd see it just for that. I'm not even kidding. I sat through The Wizard just because I heard the words Ninja Gaiden were mentioned in it. Hey, did you guys all know I'm a fan of Ninja Gaiden? :happytime:
No, but seriously, I'm not sure how I missed this thread, but this sounds like an awesome idea for a movie. I hope it turns out great if it ever actually comes out.
That villain scene featuring Dr. Wily, Bowser, Robotnik, and Zangief should be cute, too.
And those are just the references, the actual plot sound interesting, too.
I can understand the others, but why Zangief? Isn't SF's main villain M. Bison?

Dunno, maybe he's in the wrong meeting? I'd have to see the scene.
Here's the trailer. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziX_lnr8-Fk) Looks pretty good. Not really digging anything after 1:45, though.
ONCE IN A LIFETIME?!!!!
Talking Heads is always a plus.
Also, check out all the cameos.
Why did they have to use the remix version of "Levels"?
Movie looks pretty good, loved the meeting scene at the beginning.
I liked that trailer. I'm pretty interested in this movie. I'll be keeping an eye out for it.
Seems cute, weird that Zangief's a bad guy, though.
Yeah, but hey, Bison's in there too, so it's not like they forgot him. They might just have an idea or two for Zangief in the final fight scene that just wouldn't work for Bison.
Zangeif has to do that dance. You know that Russian Squat Dance to which I don't know the freaking words to. Moscow, Moscow, I don't know the fricking words. I don't know the fricking word, ha ha ha ha HEY!
Still a neat trailer.
Dr. Wily seems to be gone...
Capcom... don''t tell me.
More cameos to look for in the trailer- the T. Rex from Meet the Robinsons and Maximus from Tangled.
Does this mean we might get more Disney cameos, as well? I'd love to see Scrooge in myself. ;)

Only if we get pogo-cane and box throwing Chip and Dale.
I wonder if Donkey Kong will have anything to do with Ralph trying to be a good guy? After all, Donkey Kong was bad guy who became a good guy.

It's much better IMO.
The elitist "this is what Walt would have wanted" attitude is crap. Always has been, always will be.
The animators used to come up with ideas that they'd swear that Walt would love all the time only for virtually all of them to become promptly rejected. And the animators who thought that they knew how his mind worked are responsible for the mediocrity of the 70's.
Truth is, no one knows what Walt truly would have approved of because nobody is Walt Disney. He wasn't a complicated man, but he also wasn't an open book that can easily be deciphered for his insights and tastes. Not to mention that the Walt Disney in the last decade of his life or so was a different Walt Disney than the one who was responsible for Mickey Mouse, Snow White and the like. The reason the Renaissance happened was when Roy and the rest of the staff stopped trying to think WWWD and instead focused on what they wanted to do.
People like Duster need to realize this.
I see your point, but Disney always has down periods, they aren't infallible. There's no hard line rule for what works or doesn't in a Disney film, just like while I might say I'm sick of animated shows about suburban families while I still really like Goof Troop despite it being one of those.
The best Disney stuff is the stuff made with heart, soul, love, and passion. Just like everything else! Just doing something because you think someone else would want it down differently is never going to be as good.
True. There were even low points during Walt's own time. I do find the 60's films to be hit or miss depending on my mood and I don't know about you, but I always skim through the package features. Not enough people seem to remember that.
And I don't know about you, but I'd rather have something entertaining from Disney that might not be like their typical work, such as Emperor's New Groove or Wreck-It Ralph, than see them go through every freaking Grimms or Hans Christian Anderson story like some people such as Duster want them to do.
Besides, as you can see, even when Disney does do fairy tales again, like PATF and Tangled, he still finds little things to nitpick about because he's ultimately just a fan for nostalgia. Hell, I think he even said at one point that he doesn't consider Mickey and the gang to be a part of the "essence". Need I say more?
Yeah, I was glad when they did ENG at the time since IIRC that had a string of very similar movies before it (my chronology isn't so good), and it was a breath of fresh air. But Disney also didn't put any weight behind it so it didn't do too well at the time. After that they sort of just tried making films they were expected to make, and I think that was the problem.
While you could probably say the same for TP&TF, I think that film was more about remembering themselves and reestablishing what it means to be a Disney movie. And on that end, it was a real success. Not perfect, but that's okay, it doesn't need to be to be a great movie.
I actually think right now Disney is the best they've been (TV department aside) since the 90s.
Dr. Frankenollie, as far as I am aware, 101 Dalmatian's plot was very much the same. The most changed thing was what characters did and how much money they had? For The Jungle Book, all I know of changing is some characters' traits/reputations, and because the book covered many different stories, they made one cohesive story.
With Tangled, not only were the main character's backgrounds changed, but the plot. Not only set upon a completely different idea (instead of a witch exchanging lettuce for a child of her own, an ordinary woman steals a baby for magic hair to stay young?!), but in the middle the film completely diverges with no loving visiting prince but a thief taking the main character on an adventure, and then the only thing the ending has in common with the original is cut hair and a wound healed by tears. :/
So yea Tangled is more changed than the other two!
I'm rereading this thread, and seriously, despite always being proven wrong, this is all he ever says. This guy is beyond a broken record.

Kind of. After Emperor's, they went into a more adventure-oriented direction with Atlantis, and Treasure Planet. Unfortunately, those didn't do to well either, if I'm getting my facts straight. After that, they made two more rather forgettable films (sans Lilo & Stitch) and stopped making traditionally animated films altogether until recently.
At least that's the way I see it.

Well I guess Armond needs something to do in his spare time.
Gotta say, I'm pretty excited for this movie. Even if Zangief isn't a bad guy his inclusion in the trailer was hilarious.
Finally got around to watching the trailer. I loved the way everyone's designs mesh so well in this world. Marked out big time at seeing the modern appearances of Bowser, Dr. Eggman and M. Bison despite this supposedly being based on 80's games.
I got a good laugh out of the Halo-like game he joins in too. Jane Lynch as one of the captains made me immediately think of Gears of War.
That other site has provided a casting list for most of the video game cameos. (http://www.toonzone.net/2012/07/18534/)
So they got Ryu, Ken, & Sonic current VAs in this movie as well. Pretty neat. I also kind of like how Ed O'Neill is in this movie as the arcade owner.
My reactions to some of the casting choices:
Alan Tudyk- Hey, he's the guy who played Wash in Firefly/Serenity. Cool! ;D
Roger Craig Smith- Wow, I never actually realized that he did both Captain Marvel and is the most recent voice of Sonic. Awesome! Also, even better, this confirms that Sonic will make a cameo appearance in the movie! :thumbup:
Kyle Hebert- As in the VA who did a bunch of voices for FUNimation, including the voice of adult Gohan from DBZ that I grew up with? That just plain kicks-ass. :happytime:
Remember when Disney/Pixar went out of their way to make a retro ad for Lotso in Toy Story 3? Well Disney did it again with Wreck It Ralph ad (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wF_LJfwFsE4) at the arcade this takes place in.
I do say that even if this film might be a flop for Disney, you do got to love all the attention to detail they're doing to this film. I mean they even made a Fix-It-Felix Jr. Arcade machine.

Yeah, I didn't get why Zangief was included among the video game bad guys, unless they were going by the continuity of the Jean-Claude Van damme movie old
Street Fighter animated series which was based on the movie, in which 'Gief worked for Bison; in the game he was just another combatant in the tournament.
But that little nitpick aside, I can't wait to see this movie. This is the first Disney movie that I actually plan to go to the theater to see in a long time.
I believe "What characters would you like to see in the movie?" was asked here and I'd go with Proto Man and Quote. Knowing Capcom, seeing Proto Man in the movie will be as unlikely as seeing Quote in it.
While trying to plan a group event to see the movie tomorrow, I saw that one of my local theaters have 5 showings a day for it in 2D, but only 2 in 3D.
Says a lot, huh?
I should be seeing this within the next two days or next week. Either way, it should be good.
Oh yeah, and 3D is deservedly dying. No way am I going to pay more money to get sick.
We're doing the other theater, which has 10 2D shows and still only 2 3D shows.
I don't know if I should feel bad for the studios banking on 3D so hard or not. Its peak with Avatar and Alice and HTTYD was almost a fluke, and it feels like it's been so long since 3D was en vogue. But I have no remorse for it.
I do feel bad for them in that they need to find a way to get more butts in the seats, but the answer to that is to simply make better movies. This is one of the few movies this year where I absolutely wanted to see it on the big screen, and it's been growing steadily less every year as there is less and less variety to choose from.
The theater we're going to has come to the point where they sell cheaper tickets for both regular and 3D showings, and you can see which option is winning.
It's beyond just a price thing. People just don't want 3D.
I'm off Monday, so I've already made my plans to see it then. I just hope the matinees aren't too overly packed with kids (had that problem with Rango).
Can't wait to see this, though. Looks great.
Saw it with my aunt. Aside from the great visuals and fun cameos (especially loved Sonic giving that PSA about dying outside the games, as I loved Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog when I was younger), it has a lovable cast and genuinely great uplifting story. Sarah Silverman is a little on the too annoying side a couple times, but even her character I wanted to see come out okay.
Spoiler warning, but I have to say I surprised when that King Candy guy turned out to be Turbo (whom I assumed was deleted when he got his game unplugged). The last form he took when taking on Ralph freaky but awesome looking. All in all, yeah it's a great movie. The critics are right to call this the best animated movie of the year, and I say that as someone who wasn't disappointed at all with Brave.
I saw yesterday. Since I work from home, I was able to take the afternoon off to go see it. The theater wasn't crowded when I came. There were some parents who brought their kids to see the movie, but thankfully the theater wasn't packed with them.
The cameos were cool. Kudos to Disney for remembering the old Tapper video game. That was a really obscure reference. Unfortunately, Disney wasn't able to secure the rights to the Mario Brothers, so the only thing we got Mario-wise was a casual mention of the character by Fix-It Felix Jr.
As for the story, well, I don't want to spoil if for anyone who hasn't seen it yet. I liked Ralph as a character, and the dynamic between Ralph and Felix was OK, but I felt that their relationship could have been touched upon a little more, seeing as how the 2 of them were basically a pastiche to Donkey Kong (Ralph) and Mario (Felix). I thought that a better ending would have been if Ralph had gotten to star in his own spinoff game where he's the hero (which of course is actually happened with Donkey Kong) but the ending that we actually got was good also.
Some fans will undoubtedly be disappointed that Ralph only "game jumps" into 2 other games, Hero's Duty and Sugar Rush, which is where much of the 2nd half of the film takes place, but Sugar Rush looked amazing, the backgrounds and graphics were really well rendered and the racers were super cute. I think that Disney should at least consider making Sugar Rush game for real. If they made it, I'm sure people would play it.
I liked it.
I'll preface by mentioning that I'm a very, very, very, very casual gamer (these days I probably only play about 1 or 2 games a year), but Goldstar and I have a younger brother who's a hardcore gamer, so I have a ton of exposure to video game-related things, so I was able to appreciate the many references and allusions to games and game culture (for example: the infamous fake NES code which would supposedly allows you to play as Simon Belmont in Ninja Turtles 2: the Arcade Game pops up in an unexpected place). Sure, there probably could've been a few more cameos in the movie, but I don't count that as a strike against the film since the story wasn't about them. The stuff they did toss in there got pretty darn obscure; they even included the old Tapper game and the chef from Burger Time.
The story itself was a little melodramatic, but nice. Everyone played their parts well, and I have to admit I kind of identified with Ralph as the perpetual outsider looking in and just wanting to be included and appreciated.
Overall, a fun film. There are already 2 songs from the soundtrack that I plan to get mp3s of: "Wreck-It Ralph" and Sugar Rush".
The Paperman short was sweet, was I think Disney should've released it with another movie; it was too artsy and romantic themed to be appreciated by a kid audience.
BTW, does anybody know who that blue skinned lady was at the Bad-Anon meeting? Was she a made-up character or from an actual game? She was hot.
Quote from: Silverstar on November 03, 2012, 10:19:44 AM

Bronzestar!?
I also enjoyed it. My only issue was that it needed more Felix and Ralph interaction, but otherwise it was as good as I was expecting. It would have been nice to see Mario, but since the rights issues were a problem I can live without it.
The fun part was seeing a bunch of kids playing in the mini-arcade outside the theater after the movie.
Just got back from it, was a pretty cool little movie. Lot of video game references,which I loved(anyone catch the TMNT arcade cabinet during the montage at the beginning? What about the racer flooding out her kart a la Mario Kart during the race at the end?).
I missed a lot of references that I'll probably have to catch on a re-watch, but yeah I saw the TMNT cabinet.
Too bad they removed Dr. Wily from the original self-help scene, since Capcom was clearly willing to play ball here I can only imagine why nothing Mega Man was let in.
I'm kinda confused about Sonic's inclusion(although I loved his PSA, and the fact that he lost his rings when he was hit by the space ship), most of the video game stuff in the movie was geared primarily towards arcade games, while Sonic is mainly a home console franchise. Has he been in an arcade title, like the arcade Mario Karts?
Yeah, he's been in SegaSonic The Hedgehog and Sonic The Fighters that were both arcade games. They weren't particularly great, but yeah he was in them. Mega Man was in an arcade game too, with Mega Man Power Battles (and its sequel) so he could have been there, too.
But the real reason Sonic was in it was because of the tie-in to Sonic All Star Racing where Ralph is a playable character.

Yep, this is why Sonic and Robotnik get to be on the poster, but Mario and Bowser don't. And while we're at it, I loved seeing the MGS exclamation point and character sketches in the Tapper hallway.
And yeah, I really enjoyed it too. It doesn't feel like a modern Disney movie in a traditional way, but totally fits into the canon in a spiritual way. Even if you're not a video game fan, the movie still has a big heart and a great sense of humor. Not everything works, but I don't see how anyone could get less than a couple of laughs from the film.
And I want Disney to recreate Sugar Land in the parks. Even if they just make a candy store somewhere.
Does anyone want to talk about Paperman? Because the animation in that was like classic Disney and Pixar merged into one being somehow. I could barely even tell it was 3D at some points!
Paperman was nearly as good as the movie itself! It's a really sweet, funny little thing, just like WIR.
I kind of wonder if the Oreo gag was inspired by a similar gag in Rosebud. Jim Reardon was still on the staff at the time of the episode's production.
Also got a kick out of the two donut cops being named Duncan(Dunkin') and Winchell.
Paperman might have been one of Disney's best shorts. Too bad the kids didn't seem to like it all that much from what I heard. :(

My friend and I said this exact same thing in the theater. Rich Moore AND Jim Reardon working on it can't have been a coincidence.
Did anyone notice that Skrillex was in the Fix-It Felix party?
That was one of the few things that bugged me in the movie.
Just came back from it as well. I loved it. I think my only complaint was what Spark said in that Ralph and Felix should have had some more interactions and some parts were predicatble for me, but I come to expect that to come with age. Though I did like the bond between Vanellope and Ralph and that was what the film had going for it. This film did hit me right in the feels at certain points, mostly with Vanellope wanting to be a racer and Ralph wanting to be the good guy. Calhoun was a hoot as well. Sure she was a like a typical general you expect from FPS games that take themselves seriously, but I still couldn't help but love her character. I kind of want to see if there's an action figure of her. I know there's one of Ralph, Felix and Vanellope and I probably plan to buy them later in the week.
As for Paperman, it had it's nice charm. I loved the visuals in it the most of all and liked how the story was told by actions, rather than words. Felt a little artsy and since I went to like a 10 PM showing and most of the people in the theater looked like they can drive a car I wouldn't know how kids reacted to that. If this doesn't make the Oscar nom for animated short.... I don't know what to believe in anymore.
Seriously with this film, Disney's Animation studio did 2 things better than Pixar this year, the main movie and the short and I LOVED La Luna when I went to see Brave during the summer. In fact I still stand by La Luna being more entertaining that Brave, considering I remembered more about Luna than Brave.
P.S.
DAMN YOU AKB48 FOR SINGING SUGAR RUSH! THAT SONG IS NOW STUCK IN MY HEAD DESPITE NOT KNOWING JAPANESE!

There's a Japan-only one that uses a trackball (like Marble Madness).

Yeah there are like five or six Sonic arcade games but the bulk of them are Japan only and most of them are actually like kiddie horse rides.
What did you guys think of Sarah Silverman? She usually annoys me easily, but I think she pulled off the childish energy of Vanellope very well. At the same time, some of my least favorite bits came from her.
You know which ones I'm talking about.
She wasn't annoying to me (her voice, anyway), which considering this is Sarah Silverman is a feat in and of itself.
I like her here as Vallenope. She actually felt like an energetic kid, which kind of surprised me since I'm used to her being an adult in everything she's been in. I'm pretty indifferent to Silverman in general but I liked her in this film more than anything else. I mean sure I could imagine another voice for Vallenope, but I think this is probably Silverman's best role yet.
Have you guys played Fix-It Felix Jr. yet? Disney's site has the game, so you don't need to find an arcade cabinet.
It's insanely fun. I've already played it a few times.
Yep, have it on my phone. I think it's free on iTunes App Store.

Bad Video Game Dude sounds more like a shitty AVGN rip-off.
I don't think that's real. After seeing that I went to Video Brinquedo's website, and I didn't see that title there, or anything resembling it. I don't doubt that they'll try ripping off Wreck-It Ralph at some point, but I don't think Bad Video Game Dude is legitimate.
If it is, then that's low, even for them.
http://animationrevelation.com/podcast.html - Thaumatropy gives Wreck-It Ralph an A out of 5.
There's a new arcade cabinet app for WIR that not only contains Fix Ir Felix, but an abbreviated Heroes Duty and a weird climber game based in Sugar Rush starring Ralph. But apparently there's going to be a fourth game being added soon, and it looks like it might actually be Sugar Rush, so it might be complete.
I haven't had a chance to play the other 2 yet, though.
Hero's Duty kicks ass! It's pretty much Smash TV with Calhoun, but that's pretty awesome in its own right, isn't it? I mean, it isn't the HD we saw in the movie, but like that would translate well to a tablet.
The other game isn't that good though. I played it a couple of times before I gave up. But I don't regret spending the dollar for the app, based off of Hero's Duty and FIF, Jr.
I just got back from seeing it. It was great, better than I thought it would be. I initially worried that it would mostly be good for the cameos and whatnot, but the original cast and settings ended up being very likeable, and I liked the story.
Also, Sonic's PSA really reminded me of a "Sonic Says". :P

Just cause.
This just played on the ship, and I have a question. In a few scenes namely towards the beginning, there is a sun character walking around and is shown fairly prominently at places like the terminal and the anniversary party; does anyone know if this is from an actual game, or is it an original character?
I'm listening to a commentary track for this one, which is done by the guys who made the tracks I've talked about earlier on here, and apparently there are cameos of Maximus from Tangled and the T-Rex from Meet the Robinsons that appear pretty early on. I gotta check up on that.

I'm listening to a commentary track for this one, which is done by the guys who made the tracks I've talked about earlier on here, and apparently there are cameos of Maximus from Tangled and the T-Rex from Meet the Robinsons that appear pretty early on. I gotta check up on that.
You aren't listening to THE BEST commentary track on it, though.
hmm... Did I just miss out on something really good? I recently gave my borrowed copy back to my nephew. ???
Nah, we just did a podcast commentary on it last year.
^Ah, I see. I'll check it out.
So whatever happened to the podcast?

Oh, sweet!
Movie's made it to the cable On Demand rounds. Yay!
Tapper's pretty cool. Would have been even funnier if he opened one of the beers.
According to this, a sequel is indeed in the works. (http://collider.com/henry-jackman-captain-america-winter-soldier-interview/#XsAeYWDq6KydOLiF.99)

It was such an enjoyable movie from start to finish. It's been a little while but I remember how the story was wrapped up so well. I'm curious as to how a sequel might work. Perhaps an expanded cast of characters will be added? I'd be very curious as to who the main antagonist would be in a second flick (so many possibilities!)

How could they possibly expand on it? They covered both old and new generations of games in the first movie. There's no other ground to cover.
I finally got around to watching this film as well as KFP. I really did love this one. It's one of the most inspired Disney films that I've seen in a long time, and easily as good as any of the best Pixar films. It's refreshing to see Disney make a good movie without the use of Pixar.
Hold on... I could've sworn you made that post weeks ago? :P
Did I? I must've forgotten about it, but either way, it's a good movie, so I don't see any harm in talking about how good it is twice.
While I do wish that Disney would integrate more original ideas into the parks, and stop relying entirely on movie properties to make attractions, I really would welcome a Wreck-It Ralph expansion somewhere.
On the other hand, the only place I could see it really fit at WDW is in the Innovations pavilion in Epcot, and I'm not so sure if replacing one classic section of that park with more movie tie-ins is the right way to go (see: Finding Nemo overtaking The Living Sea; the all-but officially confirmed likelihood of Norway's pavilion in the World Showcase getting a massive Frozen overhaul). Hollywood Studios is already getting their (again, not officially announced but something pretty much everyone can tell is happening) Star Wars update, Magic Kingdom just finished their Fantasyland expansion and really doesn't need the push to do more, and WIR just wouldn't fit in Animal Kingdom at all, which is already getting their Avatar land. I've heard that Tomorrowland at Disneyland might get a Star Wars overhaul as well, but maybe they can consider bringing in Funland-related material instead, without altering Space Mountain of course, and leave the SW section of Hollywood unique to the east.

Anything done to Epcot would be an improvement. It's Disney's least interesting park.
Although I don't think a movie as good as
Wreck-it Ralph should be wasted there. There could be more potential at the other parks.
I dunno, the World Pavilion is a delight to wonder through, eat, and shop at. I know that isn't why most people go to the parks, but after going on Test Track and Soarin', it's refreshing and usually lovely to go inside the Mexico temple or look at all of the nooks and crannies in Norway and Italy. I also can't rank Epcot below Hollywood Studios, which only has what, 5 rides.
It would have definitely been interesting to see something closer to Walt's original vision of Epcot, however.
Epcot is awesome. But I do have to say its slightly less awesome than the other four parks. That's nothing against it, though. With four phenomenal parks, one is bound to be last by default.
Wreck-It Ralph 2 is on it's way. (http://www.cartoonbrew.com/disney/john-c-reilly-confirms-wreck-it-ralph-2-115913.html)
Word of a sequel has been making rounds for a while, but this is pretty much the confirmation that we need.
Good. I think the film could hold its own with a sequel, more than Frozen at least. Maybe we'll learn more about it at the D23 expo.
Make way for Mario.
You know how there has been talk of a sequel for years, with no official announcement from Disney or release date?
Now it's official (https://d23.com/just-announced-wreck-it-ralph-smashes-onto-screens-in-2018/?share_token=1d180275be). Gigantic is being pushed back to November of 2018, and this will take is place in March.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!
Wreck-It Ralph was awesome. There's definitely room for a sequel, since while she's the only character played by Sarah Silverman that I like, Vanellope took up 70% of the plot. I really love the first one but I hope this time Ralph will have a lot more focus.
Nice to finally see a release date. The world and characters are definitely rich enough to make a great sequel, so here's hoping for a good follow-up.

I love the parodies they made of actual website logos. :D
New title.

That's awful.
All of the Disney Princesses will be in Wreck-it Ralph 2. (http://io9.gizmodo.com/wreck-it-ralph-2-is-bringing-back-all-the-disney-prince-1796938437)
The movie releases November 21, 2018.
The description I've heard for that scene is great.
"We can't understand her- she's from the OTHER studio". Guess who they're talking about.
This sounds like the tongue-in-cheek Disney crossover movie I've always wanted. Really looking forward to this! ;D
Apparently Stan Lee is also in that scene, as well as C3P0, whom the princesses confuse for R2 and BB-8.
On the one hand, I'm afraid of this scene overshadowing the entire movie. On the other, I really love that this is going to be a thing.
The teaser trailer is out! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIBw9dSVKdU)
Surprised the didn't include the scene with the Disney princesses. Or has that been cut out of the film?

I doubt that it's been cut out, considering the attention it received. My hope is that Disney wanted to focus on Ralph and Vanellope first, before showing us bits of that scene.
