2 | [[folder:Pre-reveal predictions]] |
3 | [[WMG: Ralph will get a girlfriend]] |
4 | It's customary for every sequel to ship the main character. Why should Ralph be any exception? |
5 | * A WMG below suggests [[WesternAnimation/Frozen2013 Elsa]] as a possible girlfriend, since [[WordOfGod Jennifer Lee]] implied they would make a nice pair before it was announced they would appear in the same movie. |
6 | * Jossed. [[spoiler:He did get kissed by [[WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog Naveen]], though, who Ralph mistakes for {{VideoGame/Frogger}}]]. |
7 | |
8 | [[WMG: Mario will be a God of sorts]] |
9 | The directors said that they cannot come up with a role for the legendary mascot, but considering he is THE most famous and iconic video game character ever, it would be cool if he never appears, but is mentioned as a benevolent force of legend. |
10 | * Jossed. There is no reference to him at all. |
11 | |
12 | [[WMG: Surge Protector will have a big role in the sequel.]] |
13 | * Kind of confirmed. He had a bigger role than in the first movie, but it still wasn't a major role. |
14 | |
15 | [[WMG: There will be a crossover between ''Wreck-It Ralph'' and ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc1'']] |
16 | ''Monsters, Inc.'' had door-portals that led practically anywhere in the Universe. It wouldn't be too far-fetched to assume that they had at least ONE door that led into a video game within Litwak's arcade... which would essentially be a portal to the outside world, or at least, if the video game characters can't leave their world, for creatures from outside to visit in... |
17 | * Jossed. |
18 | |
19 | [[WMG: Ralph and his friends will be able to travel via Wi-Fi]] |
20 | It could be sorta like traveling through power cords, am I right? |
21 | * That would be already a given. As seen there is a Grand Central Station having a Grand Central Airline (or whatever they would like to call it). Possibly a [[DistaffCounterpart female]] counterpart to the Surge Protector should be stewardess. |
22 | * The trailer shows Litwak getting a Wi-Fi router, and Ralph and Vanellope eventually appearing in a tablet. |
23 | * The actual film doesn't definitively answer the question one way or the other. It does show Litwak's online avatar traveling via Wi-Fi from his computer to the router, which rather strongly implies that the video game characters could do the same, but Ralph and Vanellope only ever travel via cable connections. |
24 | |
25 | [[WMG: The sequel will be centered on online games...]] |
26 | ...and [[LeeroyJenkins Leeroy]] [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft Jenkins]] will have a cameo. |
27 | * Actually pretty possible. Hypothetical plot: a revolutionary new video game comes out with some form of online capability. Every arcade that installs this new game basically provides a portal for characters from that arcade to go to any other arcade that has this game installed and connected. Naturally, Litwak's Arcade is among those that adopt the new game. The villain is a Ralph from a different arcade who, like our Ralph, is tired of being a bad guy treated like garbage but, unlike our Ralph, decides that the best way to fix all that is to take over the new game and, by proxy, all of the arcades it's connected to. At first, this Ralph will succeed, so it'll be up to our Ralph and co. to dive into the game and depose the tyrannical dictatorship Alt!Ralph has established and fix right what he has set wrong. |
28 | * Ralph and a few other characters will end up in a blatant ''World Of Warcraft'' analogue, and then they'll be showered with (grammatically incorrect) questions on how they got so much unique gear. |
29 | * Online gaming appears in the actual movie in the form of ''Slaughter Race'', a ''VideoGame/{{Carmageddon}}''-like racing game, where the players' avatars look somewhat like World of Warcraft characters (as opposed to the more detailed [=NPCs=]). However, it's not really the primary focus of the movie. |
30 | |
31 | |
32 | [[WMG: [[spoiler:Felix and Calhoun will have a son.]]]] |
33 | Who grows up to become Construct-It Conagher, aka [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 the Engineer]]. |
34 | * Alas, it's [=TF2=] canon that Engy's dad is the Engineer from ''VideoGame/TeamFortressClassic''. Which is a shame since this makes ''far too much scary sense''. |
35 | ** It could be that Felix got the TFC Engineer suit from Calhoun as a birthday gift. As for Radigan, Fix-It Felix Sr. might have gone Turbo and changed his name. |
36 | ** I can't see Felix being a cigar-chomping hired killer, he's too nice. They've gotta be related, though. |
37 | *** Maybe some of Calhoun rubs off on him. |
38 | *** Or maybe he IS the classic engineer thus making him the engineer's father. |
39 | * Jossed. They adopt the Sugar Rush kids instead. |
40 | |
41 | [[WMG: Alternatively, if [[Franchise/TombRaider Lara]] ever shows up, she'll be Ralph's love interest.]] |
42 | Because...I dunno, why not? |
43 | |
44 | [[WMG: Sequel prediction: Minty Sakura will either be RetGone or a CanonImmigrant.]] |
45 | * The former is more likely. [[CulturalTranslation Despite being Zaki's replacement in the Japanese version of the film]], she only appears in the Random Roster Race entry scene and the race itself. All other scenes have Zaki in place. And if they seriously RetGone her, [[TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter they would waste a wonderful characterization opportunity]]. |
46 | * Jossed. |
47 | |
48 | [[WMG: Sequel prediction: AdaptationExpansion for the Sugar Rush cast]] |
49 | [[WMG: The BigBad will be a {{ComicBook/Galactus}} expy]] |
50 | Well, since Disney owns Marvel, why not? |
51 | [[WMG: In the sequel, Ganondorf will be the BigBad, or at least a major villain.]] |
52 | * With the former possibility, Ganon could try to convince Ralph to embrace his villainous position. In the latter case, he'll do everything he can to ensure the plot is HijackedByGanon. |
53 | * Jossed. |
54 | |
55 | [[WMG: The sequel will have a sequence that shows Tamora and Felix as a BattleCouple, using their abilities together in tandem teamwork.]] |
56 | * Jossed. [[spoiler:Instead, we get the Disney Princesses showing tandem teamwork in a battle!]] |
57 | |
58 | [[WMG: The sequel will have a slightly [[DarkerandEdgier darker tone]].]] |
59 | To elaborate, the BigBad in the sequel will be much more menacing and an even bigger threat than [[spoiler:King Candy/Turbo]]. The dangers of Game Jumping will be explored more. And, the Big Bad will not only be a threat to the Video Game World, but the Real World as well. |
60 | * And said BigBad will be none other than ''[[BitchInSheepsClothing the Surge Protector]]''. |
61 | ** Alternatively, The Big Bad will be an {{expy}} of both [[{{Film/Tron}} The MCP]] and [[Anime/SummerWars Love Machine]]. |
62 | ** Also, if Disney is feeling creative, The Big Bad will be worse than [[spoiler:King Candy/Turbo]]. But only if they're feeling really creative. |
63 | * Jossed. However the threat does ends up threatening the online world. |
64 | |
65 | [[WMG: ''Wreck-it Ralph 2'''s villain will be... Wreck-it Ralph... from the future.]] |
66 | * Basically, in the present day and age, Ralph will have a new game that stars him. The problem? In the new game, Ralph is the hero, but he's DarkerAndEdgier, paralleling the practice of current-day developers in reviving old franchises in a similar way. Eventually he meets Past!Ralph and tries to turn him just as bad as his programming suggests he should be. Of course, Ralph being pretty much the embodiment of the NiceGuy trope, [[FutureMeScaresMe he's pretty much creeped out by the idea.]] Future!Ralph will then attempt to do what Turbo did on a much larger scale and try to take over ''the whole arcade'', putting the risks on a much larger scale, and allowing for other more recognizable characters to get their own little sequences. |
67 | * [[spoiler:Mostly jossed. The villain in the actual movie's climax ''is'' a copy of Ralph, but instead of being from the future, he's created by a virus.]] |
68 | |
69 | [[WMG: The sequel will be primarily focused on the Internet.]] |
70 | The arcade is going out of business, but fortunately it has [=WiFi=], so Ralph and his friends can escape by finding a passageway to the Internet. There, they explore the enormous World-Wide Web and the four of them each get separated, and are now trying to find each other. It could also reference a lot of Internet memes, such as... |
71 | * The four finding [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic ponified]] versions of themselves. |
72 | * Ralph and Felix finding out that they once had a cartoon series...that is a prime source for parody in YouTubePoop (probably called "[[WritingAroundTrademarks MyTube Crud]]" or something similar), a reference to how the ''WesternAnimation/SuperMarioBrosDic'' shows get similar treatment. |
73 | * Vanellope ending up on Website/DeviantArt and finding a drawing of an [[SelfFanservice older, sexier version of herself.]] And becoming attracted to it. |
74 | * Felix also finding a drawing of himself wielding Thor's hammer. |
75 | * And the BigBad is none other than [[TakeThat SOPA]] (or a CaptainErsatz of SOPA), [[{{Demonization}} which is depicted as an]] EldritchAbomination [[OmnicidalManiac bent on destroying everything on the web.]] |
76 | * The main idea is confirmed, the title of the sequel is ''Ralph Breaks the Internet''. However all other theories are Jossed. |
77 | |
78 | [[WMG: In the sequel, there'll be a joke about {{Rule 34}}]] |
79 | if the internet's involved then it will be involved. (Perhaps it'd pertain to [[spoiler: Felix and Calhoun's honeymoon.]]) |
80 | * Considering that the movie is rated PG, I doubt that, but it would be fun if they referenced it very subtly. After all, Felix has a ''golden hammer''. |
81 | * Jossed. |
82 | |
83 | [[WMG: In the sequel, Music/MichaelJackson will appear.]] |
84 | Not THE MJ, of course, but his Moonwalker game persona, now if Disney can get the copyrights for the movie... |
85 | * Jossed. |
86 | |
87 | [[WMG: Sour Bill will get a girlfriend if there's a sequel.]] |
88 | Because that would be adorable. |
89 | |
90 | [[WMG: Taffyta will become a villain in the sequel.]] |
91 | During the scene where Wynchell asks Vanellope who will be ruler, look closely at Taffyta, specifically, her hand. Notice that her hand clenched when Vanellope said "me". This would imply that there would be friction between her and Vanellope in the future. |
92 | ** Jossed. |
93 | |
94 | [[WMG: The sequel will utilizeohCrapThereAreFanficsOfUs]] |
95 | Supposedly it'll involve the Internet. Where else can you find massive archives of fanfic and find that you're the subject? And, of course, there will probably be characters out there. Maybe [[CharacterDerailment ridiculously inaccurate]] [[{{Expy}} Expies]] of themselves... |
96 | * Naturally, it will be hilarious and awkward when they find out about such gems as [[NoYay Ralph/Vanellope]] and [[spoiler:Turbo]]'s DracoInLeatherPants status. |
97 | ** Ralph is going to ''love'' seeing that the guy who almost killed Vanellope has a fandom, and that Vanellope and Felix have hatedoms. He'll probably start wrecking something. |
98 | |
99 | [[WMG: If ''[[WhatCouldHaveBeen Extreme E-Z Livin' 2]]'' makes it into the sequel, it'll be how video game characters into the arcade get to the Internet]] |
100 | You know, assuming it has Internet access (which I assume it should, being a [[VideoGame/TheSims Sims-styled]] game. |
101 | |
102 | [[WMG: Rancis ''will'' be Vanellope's boyfriend/love interest in the sequel.]] |
103 | Because why would they write a book about him and Vanellope? Also, if you look closely in the background when Vanellope starts talking about being a president, he appears to be checking out Vanellope several times. |
104 | * Jossed. Vanellope doesn't have a love interest. |
105 | |
106 | [[WMG: Disney Junior stuff will appear in the Sequel with most of them RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap]] |
107 | Well, since the film had the Disney Princesses apearing altogether on screen, why not we have [[WesternAnimation/SofiaTheFirst Princess Sofia]] appear in the film too? |
108 | Other things: |
109 | * Oh, maybe [[WesternAnimation/JakeAndTheNeverLandPirates Captain Jake]] would appear as a teenager with a [[Franchise/StarWars Luke Skywalker]], [[Franchise/BackToTheFuture Marty McFly's for his jeans in dark blue]], [[ComicBook/MilesMorales Miles Morales' Spidey torso part of his costume]] in terms of physical apperance and with a pinch of Dipper meets Indy-like personality combined. |
110 | ** And maybe, [[Main/TheOtherDarrin we can have]] [[Creator/MichaelRosenbaum]] to voice him with his voice style like Kid Flash's? |
111 | ** Also, how about make his sense of comedy being similar to Spidey's but with a pirate twist. |
112 | ** And also, make him the Ultimate Chick Magnet. |
113 | * Jojo would appear as a Spider-Gwen like heroine. |
114 | [[WMG: {{ComicBook/Deadpool}} will make an Appearance]] |
115 | Well, if we can have Iron Man and Gamora in here, then why put him as well? Albeit [[Main/CensoredForComedy]] plus we can have [[Creator/NolanNorth his regular voice actor]] [[RoleReprise reprise his role]] once more. |
116 | ** Because [[Main/RuleOfCool Three words]] and some more: Breaking the 4th Wall with Ralph. |
117 | *** The dialogue: |
118 | *** Ralph: Huh? What are you gonna do now, mister? |
119 | *** Deadpool: (when he is about to Destroy anything) I'M GONNA WRECK IT!!!!! |
120 | *** Ralph: Hey! That's my line!!! |
121 | In fact, as a ParentalBonus for the fans, he would tell the audience about his history of his on screen appearances and stuff. |
122 | |
123 | [[WMG: The sequel will start out with Litwak plugging in a computer or gaming console into Game Central Station.]] |
124 | The power cord is kinda the only way the arcade machine characters can move around. Since most electronic gaming devices need to be plugged in at one point or another, it brings a perfect beginning point to Ralph & co. discovering this new world. |
125 | * Confirmed. The movie begins with Litwak plugging in the wi-fi, allowing the characters to travel to the internet. |
126 | |
127 | [[WMG: WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil's Star Butterfly will Appear]] |
128 | Considering the fact her show is about going into alternate dimensions, why not we have Eden Sher reprise her role? |
129 | ** Oh! And maybe Adam M. as Marco too? We need a Marco vs. [[Franchise/StreetFighter Ken]] match to happen!!!! |
130 | [[WMG: Missingno. will be TheDragon/BigBad of the sequel.]] |
131 | Keep in mind that Missingno isn't technically owned by Nintendo, and if they could have cameos of actual Nintendo characters, copyright shouldn't be an issue. Now, you're saying, since when can a glitch leave its game? Well, you can trade Missingno over to Red, Blue, Yellow and Pokemon Stadium (though Stadium turns it into the Substitute doll, though I can imagine Missingno using that as a disguise). Depending on whether they want a twist of TheDragon being the less sympathetic or not, Missingno will be a TragicVillian who's attacking/serving the BigBad because [[EldritchAbomination his mere existence is detrimental to his world]] (especially if its Pokemon Yellow), and as such will be [[FantasticRacism constantly shunned]] by others. |
132 | * Already done on WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall. Nintendo if they did that would be basically plagiarizing Linkara. And personally they couldn't do it better than him, in which [[spoiler: Linkara made Missingno, an all powerful Lovecraftian God. Who destroys everyone and everything. And being really effectively terrifying throughout.]] |
133 | |
134 | [[WMG: Dr. Brad Scott will come BackFromTheDead]] |
135 | The fangirls could have demanded his return [[MrFanservice because of his looks]] or perhaps because TrueLoveIsBoring. Brad will try to get [[LoveTriangle Calhoun back]] much to Felix's chagrin. But once he sees how in love Calhoun and Felix are [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy he'll back off]]. |
136 | ** Or, he could try to get Calhoun back, but once he sees how she and him are in love, he'll let them be, and help them fight the Big Bad. WITH SCIENCE! |
137 | |
138 | [[WMG: The sequel will involve another form of FantasticRacism]] |
139 | Or rather Fantastic ''Ageism'', since arcades are more-or-less obsolete these days. If the group travels to the console world, a console game characters will look down arcade characters as outdated. Or call them [[FantasticSlur "Obsoletes"]]. |
140 | * PC Master Race reference anyone? |
141 | * Jossed. |
142 | |
143 | [[WMG: There will be Anime and Manga expies in the sequel]] |
144 | If Disney can't call the owners and licensors for that, W.I.P. |
145 | [[WMG: The Konami Code will play an important role in the sequel.]] |
146 | In the first film, [[spoiler: Turbo/King Candy]] used the Konami code to hack into Sugar Rush. It is shown that he had the Code written on a napkin. Which means that someone told him about the Konami code and how it works. My guess is that the BigBad in the sequel is giving the code to rogue programs to mess with computer systems and video games. The big bad's ultimate goal is to use the Konami Code to Take over the Computer/Video game world and the real world. |
147 | |
148 | [[WMG: ''Wreck-it Ralph'' will soon have a TV special(s)]] |
149 | Animated movie franchises (such as ''Franchise/{{Shrek}}'', ''Franchise/{{Madagascar}}'', ''Franchise/KungFuPanda'', ''WesternAnimation/MonstersVsAliens'', ''WesternAnimation/IceAge'', and more recently ''Franchise/ToyStory'') have aired at least one TV special on channels like Creator/{{ABC}}. As soon as after the sequel, the same may happen to Wreck-It Ralph. |
150 | * If so, there will be a Christmas special named ''Wreck the Halls''. |
151 | ** Sorta - there's a Disney Christmas Storybook Collection with a Ralph and Vanellope-centric story named ''Wreck the Halls''. |
152 | |
153 | [[WMG: In the sequel, Felix and Calhoun will become a BattleCouple and/or Calhoun will display ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend tendencies.]] |
154 | |
155 | [[WMG: The Moppet Girl from the original film will reappear, except older.]] |
156 | Since the sequel will take place 6 years after the original film, she might reappear, only 6 years older. |
157 | ** Jossed. |
158 | |
159 | [[WMG: The sequel, if there'll be one, will feature a Presidential Election at Sugar Rush and Vanellope's main (if not only) opponent will play on the voter's fears Vanellope might execute them for real]] |
160 | Or the opponent might also fear that. |
161 | |
162 | [[WMG: The BigBad in the sequel will be a genuinely nice hero-turned-villain.]] |
163 | Originating from a NintendoHard game, he became quite broken over dying repeatedly in his very own game. Believing the villains to have an easier life than the heroes, he left his own game in an attempt to become a villain. While he fails at actually being evil, he ends up causing massive trouble anyhow. He ends up pulling off a HeelFaceTurn after a MyGodWhatHaveIDone moment when he inevitably causes a serious catastrophe. |
164 | * So basically Mario? |
165 | * Jossed. There's technically no BigBad, [[spoiler:but there is a virus formed from Ralph's insecurities, who threatens the entire internet.]] |
166 | [[WMG: Gwenpool will appear]] |
167 | [[WMG: If Franchise/{{Pokemon}} appear in the sequel, they will use PokemonSpeak.]] |
168 | Same reason why they do in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''. ''Wreck-it Ralph'' actually ''does'' share part of its target audience with the [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries Pokémon anime]], and since Disney already has Groot they can probably find some way to play it [[PlayedForLaughs for laughs]]. |
169 | * Highly doubtful. Outside the anime, modern media has Pokémon speak in just animal-like grunts. The anime plays PokemonSpeak dead straight and not for laughs like with Groot. Plus it is aimed at preschoolers only; ''Wreck-it Ralph'' is a family franchise with great adult appeal. |
170 | ** Ummm.. [[Main/FlatWhat what?]] Last time I checked, Pokemon (both anime and game) was for kids much older than that [[Main/PeripheryDemographic and is also popular with teens and adults]], in fact, it even has [[NightmareFuel/{{Pokemon}} scenes that are NOT preschooler friendly]]. |
171 | |
172 | [[WMG: The sequel will focus on {{MassivelyMultiplayerOnlineRolePlayingGame}}s]] |
173 | Through one way or another, the heroes [[TrappedInTVLand get sucked into the world wide web]], and get bounced around various {{Expy}}s of famous online games, like VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft, VideoGame/TeamFortress2, VideoGame/CallOfDuty[=/=]VideoGame/{{Battlefield}}, etc., with Ralph and his crew often going various {{ArtShift}}s with the games ([[UnusuallyUninterestingSight often getting written off as either]] [[VirtualPaperDoll avatars made from in-game customization, or fan-based modding]]). The main conflict will arise with having to deal with players who have cases of [[ForumSpeak G.I.F.T]] ([[{{Bowdlerise}} there's no cursing or sexual content, naturally]], but the intent to annoy or bully other players would be at the forefront - some of it PlayedForLaughs {{Troll}}ing, others being [[DarkerAndEdgier considerably more nasty]], [[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain like mocking certain players for being foreign, handicapped, etc.]]), and eventually allying with underdog players who want to stop these {{Troll}}s from ruining their games. An overall BigBad may be an {{Expy}} of Youtube's infamous "[[BigBrotherIsWatching Content ID]]" system, [[GoneHorriblyWrong which goes haywire and starts to tear the very internet apart]], EldritchAbomination style - and since EverythingIsOnline, that doesn't just threaten games, but virtually the entire world! |
174 | * While a plot involving an MMORPG is more or less confirmed, this is otherwise jossed. The plot is that the steering wheel on Sugar Rush is broken, and Ralph and Vanellope go to the internet to buy a new one - in the process, they find an MMORPG called "Slaughter Race" that Vanellope wants to live in. In addition, there's technically no BigBad, unless you count [[spoiler:a virus created from Ralph's insecurities]]. |
175 | |
176 | [[WMG:The InUniverse equivlent of ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' will make an appearance in the sequel.]] |
177 | It probably would have the parody title of "Tobikomi All-Stars: [[DepartmentofRedundancyDepartment Great Fray Battle Royale"]] (at least in the Japanese release), and, like its real-life counterpart, was a weekend project that had NoBudget before they decided to make it into an actual game. Now, whether it would play a significant role in the plot or if it is just a cameo is still up for guessing. |
178 | |
179 | [[WMG: If there's a sequel, the Angry Birds will cameo.]] |
180 | Oh God, there's an arcade game?? |
181 | * Yep; They have it at Dave and Busters: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-gaWc6RVFM |
182 | * Unlikely, as the Angry Birds have [[WesternAnimation/TheAngryBirdsMovie their own movie]], which is ''not'' owned by Disney, so there could be licensing issues. |
183 | |
184 | [[WMG: If there is a sequel, the villain (or one of the villains) will be [[spoiler:the unknown person who Turbo shared the Konami Code with or vice versa.]]]] |
185 | [[spoiler:Look closely at the scene where Turbo opens the 'code chamber'; the code is scrawled on a napkin from Tapper's. You'd think if Turbo were the original discoverer of the secret, he'd never have written it down anywhere or needed to (it's not like the Konami Code is hard to memorize, and writing down the keys to this kind of power is ''beyond moronic'' if you never have any intention to share it!). No, the fact that the Konami Code was ''written down'' means that at some point someone was teaching it to someone else. So, [[Film/ThePhantomMenace which one was Turbo -- the master, or the apprentice?]]]] |
186 | * It's possible that the answer is [[spoiler:[[TakeAThirdOption neither]]]]. [[spoiler:Turbo]] could have been in Tapper's and gotten it out of, or overhead it from, a character who'd had the Code used on their game, so he had to scribble it on the first thing at hand, the napkin. It's possible that the character didn't even know what the Code did, and [[spoiler:Turbo]] only realized its potential because he's old enough/was desperate enough to realize what the other character was talking about, even if the speaker didn't. |
187 | * On another note, it's possible that [[spoiler:Turbo hasn't been in the code room]] for some time, maybe even years, and if he's only used a handful of times, it's reasonable that he might have forgotten it. On a semi-related note, it seems ironic that the inside of an arcade game might be one of the few places where memes like the Konami Code do not propagate. |
188 | ** Which makes sense, considering that it would function as a ''literal'' {{Gamebreaker}}: Even if it didn't have unintended side-effects, it would still allow anyone who had it to mess with the very fabric of reality in any given game-world. Since it also seems that you don't need any technical acumen to use it, something like the Konami Code would be guarded like a weapon of mass destruction! |
189 | |
190 | [[WMG: In the sequel, the BigBad will be Waluigi]] |
191 | He's secretly been plotting to take over all video games and was in fact the one to [[spoiler:teach Turbo the Konami Code]]. Ralph, Felix, Vanellope, and Calhoun will have to team up once again to prevent every day from becoming [[Webcomic/BrawlInTheFamily Waluigi Time.]] |
192 | * It could be worse. [[VideoGame/EarthBound1994 Giygas]] [[MindRape could easily fuck with everybody's mind in the station.]] Don't be surprised when you see kids in therapy... |
193 | ** Giygas isn't exactly an arcade character, though. |
194 | |
195 | [[WMG: Possible games that Ralph and his friends will go to in the sequel.]] |
196 | * Here's a rundown of games that might appear. |
197 | ** The original Fix-It Felix Arcade Game. |
198 | ** An Open-World/Platformer/Action-Adventure game in the vain of a ''VideoGame/LegoAdaptationGame}} and a toyline similar to LEGO. |
199 | ** An online RPG game in the vain of ''VideoGame/EverQuest'' |
200 | ** A fighting game that is a cross between ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' and ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' |
201 | *** Doubt it, as both of those games made a cameo in the first movie. Throw down with a little bit of ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'' as we could imagine a Liu Kang expy who acts like Johnathan Joestar. A Shao Kahn equivalent who acts like Dio Brando. |
202 | *** Bonus points if we had some ''[=JoJo=]'' voices in Japanese and English providing the Cast. |
203 | ** A [[VideoGame/TheSims Sims]] styled Game. |
204 | *** If ''Extreme E-Z Livin' 2'' from the deleted scenes makes it in, it would fill this slot. |
205 | *** Alternatively, maybe a game that's like that but with Superheroes? |
206 | ** A game that has the gameplay of Modern Open-world games but with Superpowers. |
207 | *** Basically Creator/{{RockstarGames}} but in a Superhero comic book world that uses elements from Anime and Manga? |
208 | ** A game that combines the style and gameplay of ''Franchise/{{Starfox}}'' and ''VideoGame/CrimsonSkies'', with a heavy dose of {{Dieselpunk}}. |
209 | ** A ''Franchise/MassEffect'' game (most likely ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'' so we can have Ralph, Felix, and/or Calhoun [[{{CoolVsAwesome}} take on]] a [[spoiler:Reaper Destroyer]]) or an expy thereof. |
210 | ** Another racing game in the vain of ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeed'', ''VideoGame/GranTurismo'', or ''VideoGame/MidtownMadness''. Vanellope has driven go-karts in her own game, but would she be able to handle a full-sized automobile? |
211 | *** Probably confirmed, but we now have one with a ''Mad Max''/''Fast and the Furious'' inspired motif. |
212 | |
213 | [[WMG: Not only will the sequel involve the original Fix-It Felix, but also later games in the series.]] |
214 | If Fix-It Felix is analogous to Mario, then there would have been many more games featuring Felix and Ralph. The versions of Felix and Ralph from other games in the series would be their own characters and possibly come into conflict with the ones we know. |
215 | |
216 | [[WMG: Missingno. will be the BigBad in the sequel.]] |
217 | * And he will look [[http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs40/f/2009/018/7/c/Wild_Missingno__Appeared_by_warupua.jpg like this]] to the other characters. |
218 | * He also has a natural shape-shifting ability. |
219 | * Alternativelly, Missingno. will appear, but as one of the heroes (any experienced R/B glitcher will tell you, Missingno. is actually relatively harmlesss and rather useful), 'M and the other glitches (who can actually crash the game) will play the villains. |
220 | * Or, Missingno could be the villain or BigBad, but he takes the form of a bird. His true form is a horrific Eldritch Abomination that drives people temporarily insane and enjoys toying with them and turning them on each other. He can also create clones. which would explain the multiple evil Ralphs. |
221 | |
222 | [[WMG: The sequel will involve the gang looking up their origins on the internet]] |
223 | * The first movie dealt with Ralph dealing with his identity as an antagonistic character and Vanellope as a glitch, tying into the theme of personal identity and website jumping of the second movie, the cast will become curious about the development and history of their games and sneak through the spark plug into the World Wide Web in a search for rhymes and reasons for their creators creating them |
224 | |
225 | [[WMG: The sequel will center around the threat of closing the arcade.]] |
226 | Naturally, that would mean all the games would become unplugged, so the games decide to try and do something about it. Ralph might venture to the internet looking for help. |
227 | |
228 | [[WMG: ''VideoGame/FinalFight''/''Franchise/StreetFighter'''s Poison will be included.]] |
229 | To appeal to the LGBT crowd. |
230 | |
231 | [[WMG: Ralph and/or his game will become the subject of a cautionary tale in a similar vein to Turbo.]] |
232 | As an example of what can happen if video game sprites don't appreciate the driving force behind their game, i.e. the bad guy of the game. |
233 | |
234 | [[WMG: Advertising/SegataSanshiro will appear in the sequel.]] |
235 | |
236 | [[WMG: The arcade will operate like the Wrestling/{{WWE}} in regards to the "Villain" characters in the sequel]] |
237 | Honestly, I'm surprised that the arcade didn't have an equivalent of {{Kayfabe}} in the first film, since it would just make sense to implement this idea given the obvious parallels that the sapient video game characters have to pro wrestlers. |
238 | |
239 | [[WMG: The Mishima family of ''VideoGame/{{Tekken}}'' will appear in the sequel, ''WesternAnimation/RalphBreaksTheInternet'']] |
240 | Instead of being the BigScrewedUpFamily they are in that video game series, they are a very tight-knit family watching over arcade routers and wifi the same way Knuckles watches over the Master Emerald in the ''Sonic'' series. |
241 | [[/folder]] |
242 | |
243 | [[folder:Post-reveal predictions]] |
244 | [[WMG: Felix and Calhoun will be DemotedToExtra]] |
245 | * Given that the official synopsis mentions neither of those characters and they also don't appear in the trailers |
246 | ** They appear in the second official trailer, but that's not saying much. |
247 | ** Confirmed, they do appear several times in the film, but only for short scenes, and when the movie shifts to the net, we don't see them again until the end. |
248 | |
249 | [[WMG: Alternatively, Felix and Calhoun will be a big part of the B-plot.]] |
250 | Both of them are well-liked by the fanbase and Disney could easily write a secondary plot centered around them (maybe their efforts to deal with problems in the other two's absence) without taking the primary focus off Ralph and Vanellope. |
251 | |
252 | [[WMG: There will be a joke about Snow White, Cinderella and Aurora's voices]] |
253 | While they got the Disney Renaissance-era and beyond Disney Princesses to reprise their roles, Snow White, Cinderella and Aurora will get different voice actresses since either their voice actresses are dead or too old to voice the princesses. One of the characters will {{Lampshade}} their voice sounding different and make a joke about it. |
254 | * Their voice-actresses are dead, how can you make a joke out of that? |
255 | ** Aurora's original actress is actually still alive, but too old. |
256 | ** The original WMG was likely pointing more to the voices just sounding different in general, rather than anything regarding most of the original actress' fates. |
257 | * Well, they need to explain about them having different voice actresses than the others. |
258 | * Making a joke about their voice actresses' death would be in poor taste. My guess would be that the new voice actresses will simply do their best impression of the original voices. |
259 | * They'll probably just get Jennifer Hale (Cinderella), Kate Higgins (Aurora), and Katie Von Till (Snow White) to reprise the roles since they voiced them for their appearances on ''WesternAnimation/SofiaTheFirst'' . The former has also been her official voice actress since the early 2000s, and did "additional voices" for the original film. I'm surprised they weren't mentioned in any of the press release, especially the former. |
260 | ** Upon release of the official trailer, we have more information. It is confirmed as Cinderella and Aurora will keep their current voice actors, Jennifer Hale and Kate Higgins, but Snow White will be voiced by co-writer Pamela Ribbon. |
261 | |
262 | [[WMG: Post-Credit Scene will feature Elsa and Anna and ''Frozen 2's'' Teaser]] |
263 | Walt Disney Animation Studios are no strangers to Post-Credit Scenes as they done with ''Frozen, Big Hero 6'' and ''Moana'', since Anna and Elsa will appear too along with other Disney Princesses. It's make sense to have a Post-Credit scene teasing ''Frozen 2'' and it would be a huge missed opportunity if they don't do it! It helps that ''Frozen 2'' will come out 1 year after ''Wreck-It Ralph 2''. I think Anna and Elsa are talking to each other about their excitement about ''Frozen 2'' and accidentally give away some of the plot detail and they will look at the audience and one of them say "Did we just reveal about ''Frozen 2?''" |
264 | * Partially confirmed - it's [[spoiler: actually a Rickroll]]. |
265 | |
266 | [[WMG: Vanellope will make an ActorAllusion towards [=KnowsMore=].]] |
267 | Basically, [=KnowsMore=] is voiced by Alan Tudyk, who also voiced King Candy/Turbo. When Vanellope meets [=KnowsMore=], she'll lampshade them sharing the same voice actor, saying something to the effect of, "Hey, why do you sound like King Candy?" |
268 | ** Jossed. |

468 | |
469 | [[WMG: One scene near the end will feature an UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny.]] |
470 | Part of the show is already going to be a MassiveMultiplayerCrossover; why not have the heroes team up with Ralph and Company to stop the film's antagonist? If Disney felt like being especially generous, they could even include characters who have not had their own shows in years but have a massive fanbase (and have been featured on their website), such as WesternAnimation/KimPossible, the casts of the Disney Afternoon shows (some of the actors are still alive, and they could possibly splice archive dialogue in with new animation) and many other fan favorites. The fans would probably seriously welcome seeing old heroes (besides the princesses), and Disney owns the rights anyway. |
471 | * We will just have to wait. |
472 | [[WMG: Gravity Falls characters will appear.]] |
473 | They're Disney, so... |
474 | * Best option: a pair of screaming, low-res polygon characters driving a truck. |
475 | |

487 | [[WMG: There will be a TakeThat towards ''WesternAnimation/TheEmojiMovie''.]] |
488 | ''WesternAnimation/TheEmojiMovie'' is often accused of [[FollowTheLeader ripping off]] ''Wreck-It Ralph'', and I wouldn't be surprised if Disney acknowledged this. Perhaps Ralph and Vanellope briefly travel through a land of anthropomorphic emojis during their journey through the Internet, but dismiss it as stupid / annoying. |
489 | * Alternatively, the cast will head to a website that offers an online cinema, one of the offerings being The Emoji Movie. The cast will comment on how awful the movie looks and how bad the premise sounds. Bonus points if the guy peddling the movie happens to be [[WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}} Duke Weaselton]], aka Alan Tudyk, causing someone to comment on the familiar sounding voice. |
490 | |
491 | [[WMG: Bowser will return and make another cameo.]] |
492 | He will also speak in his scene, though considering that he's from Mario, [[VoiceGrunting he'll also have subtitles.]] |
493 | ** Jossed, plus it's due to those rights going to Universal. |
494 | |
495 | [[WMG: The Main Antagonist and BigBad of the sequel will be the biggest, yet also, the most badass Disney villain in history]] |
496 | * The main antagonist in the climax is [[spoiler:a giant Ralph created from all the zombie-Ralphs the virus created from Ralph's insecurity, who's comparable in size to [[WesternAnimation/{{Pinocchio}} Monstro]] and [[WesternAnimation/{{Moana}} Te Ka]]. So if you meant "the biggest" by size, that's Confirmed. If you meant the most evil, that's Jossed - it's very much just a giant version of Ralph is unable to let Vanellope go.]] |
497 | |
498 | [[WMG: Yesss will be the HiddenVillain]] |
499 | She's only helping Ralph and Vanellope because she wants something from them. Perhaps she's trying to replace Vanellope in Sugar Rush by taking advantage of some sort of exploit that's only possible if the game has been damaged. She could have even been the one who damaged the game in the first place in order to set her plan into motion. |
500 | * That would also fit with the tendency of recent Disney films to have the antagonist be someone who has seemed friendly and/or helpful to the hero prior to TheReveal. |
501 | ** Jossed. |
502 | |
503 | [[WMG: The film will partly continue from where ''Film/TronLegacy'' took off]] |
504 | The third film was unfairly cancelled (or "put into cryogenic freeze", as per the writers) in 2015, but Richard Moore has said he wants to place Tron in this movie. It would be ideal if this film reveals what happened to him [[spoiler:after being freed from Clu's control]], even if he just appeared as a cameo. TheOtherDarrin will most likely happen, however, as Bruce Boxleitner is no longer interested. |
505 | * Not really, but in the beginning, Ralph and Vanellope do visit the Tron game to race light cycles, but end up getting frozen by a virus. |
506 | |
507 | [[WMG: [[WesternAnimation/Frozen2013 Elsa]] and Ralph will become an OfficialCouple]] |
508 | Since both [[http://i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/694/743/2ea.jpg Jennifer Lee]] and [[https://youtu.be/AeC9yHhLq6Q?t=2m21s Rich Moore]] have expressed interest in Elsa and Ralph as a couple, '''and''' the plot allows Ralph to interact with other Disney characters, Ralph will be able to meet Elsa and develop a relationship. Whether this will be made canon in ''Frozen 2'' is up for debate. |
509 | * Jossed. Ralph meets [[spoiler:and is rescued by]] Elsa, but the two don't develop a relationship. |
510 | |
511 | [[WMG: Princess Leia will appear.]] |
512 | It would be a nice tribute to Carrie Fisher by adding her most famous role with the other Disney Princesses, effectively making her one of them. Plus, they already have C-3PO cameoing in the film, why not her? |
513 | * Confirmed. |
514 | |
515 | [[WMG: The Final Battle will be inspired by the VS. Galactus fights]] |
516 | |
517 | [[WMG: If C-3PO gets a talking role, Creator/AnthonyDaniels will voice him.]] |
518 | He played the character in every appearance so far, from video games to animated TV shows. It's unlikely that this movie would break the trend, especially since voice actors of the Disney princesses are also reprising their roles. |
519 | ** Confirmed. |
520 | |
521 | [[WMG: Vanellope and Ralph will find out about more Sugar Rush games that came after the original.]] |
522 | Maybe they will find a wiki for Sugar Rush and find out about Sugar Rush's history and characters, go to an [[Main/BlandNameProduct bland-name product]] version of [[Website/DeviantArt DeviantArt]] and see bad {{original character}}s and fetish art, or even go to a bland-name product version of Steam, in which the duo will find a recently-released Sugar Rush game, with new characters and locations. |
523 | ** Jossed. Not only do they not do it, but Sugar Rush's devs closing up shop is part of the plot starter. |
524 | |
525 | [[WMG: The film will be a parody of fan fiction and fan art.]] |
526 | Ralph and Vanellope meeting all these characters from other Disney franchises is the perfect engine to duplicate the kinds of stuff fans on the internet create. It isn't featuring the characters from other franchises as themselves, but versions from fanfics and drawings posted on social media sites. |
527 | List of Possibilites: |
528 | * Anna and Elsa are from a CrackFic where they are both in love with Olaf. |
529 | ** And Hans will be gay. |
530 | * Belle is from a "Disney Couple Crossover" video where she's together with [[CrackPairing Tigger.]] |
531 | * A {{ComicBook/Deadpool}} and {{WesternAnimation/Kim Possible}} CrackPairing team-up fanfic. |
532 | * A ComicBook/SpiderMan fanfic themed fanfiction remake with numerous Disney and Pixar animated film and television characters playing the roles, patricularly the ComicBook/UltimateMarvel versions mixed up with their counterparts from other sources, complete with [[WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb Phineas Flynn]] playing the role of Spider-Man while dressed up as his appearances in the {{Franchise/Marvel Cinematic Universe}} through his characterization takes influences from The Spectacular Spider-Man show back in 2008. |
533 | ** So basically, WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan [[JustForFun/XMeetsY with]] Disney animated characters thrown down in? |
534 | ** And maybe, [[WesternAnimation/SofiaTheFirst Princess Sofia]] dressed up as the [[ComicBook/MsMarvel2014 Kamala Khan Ms. Marvel]] along with [[WesternAnimation/MiloMurphysLaw Milo Murphy]] as ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} as his best friends plus AdaptationalHeroism, TookInLevelInKindness and TookInLevelInBadass for the latter, as well as the former as his love interest? RuleOfFunny for a LoveTriangle with three Disney titular television protagonists dressed up as Comic Book superheroes. |
535 | ** And so, two BadassAdorable versions of MCU!Spider-Man as Kamala Khan!Ms. Marvel cosplayed by two young Disney protagonists + a CrazyPrepared, yet ComicallySerious and Braver version of [[Film/Deadpool2016 Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool]] played by Milo Murphy = Avenging Spider-Phin ft. Milopool and Ms. Maryel. |
536 | ** Bonus points if we get Vincent Martella, Weird Al Yankovic and Ariel Winter as Phineas, Milo and Sofia as Spider-Phin, Milopool and Ms. Maryel together. |
537 | * Tiana is from a gag Tumblr fan comic that has her and Naveen swap roles. |

540 | * Dipper and Jessie in an Franchise/AceAttorney-esque Courtroom mystery fanfic. |
541 | * Buzz Lightyear will be trapped in a vlog where a fan theorist talks about the Pixar Theory. |
542 | * Quorra will appear working at the diner in Gravity Falls. |
543 | * Davy Jones will be a Japanese schoolgirl who works at Kentucky Fried Chicken and has a crush on "Sparrow-senpai". |
544 | * Indy mistakenly discover Stitch as an old but mysterious treasure. |
545 | * The Avengers meeting their LighterAndSofter [[WesternAnimation/TheSuperheroSquadShow counterparts]] in a {{WesternAnimation/TurtlesForever}}-style twist. |
546 | ** And this time, don't forget to have Spider-Man, Carol as Captain Marvel for both (as we saw a fanmade drawing of her for the latter) and lastly, Deadpool in it. RuleOfFunny anyone? |
547 | *** Bonus points if {{Creator/Ryan Reynolds}} (or, the other way, {{Creator/Nolan North}}} for Avengers!Deadpool) and {{Creator/Tom Kenny}} as both versions of the Merc in the Mouth himself. An UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny if they met each other. |
548 | * A {{Literature/Harry Potter}}-esque series of romantic dark fantasy comedy-drama adventure mystery fanfiction featuring [[WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb Ferb Fletcher]], [[WesternAnimation/MiloMurphysLaw Melissa Chase]] and [[WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil Marco Diaz]] altogether. |
549 | * A ComicBook/{{Scott Pilgrim}} [[JustForFun/XmeetsY with some elements of]] WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}} mixed up with a little {{VideoGame/Infamous}}, Film/MadMax, Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure and {{WesternAnimation/Danny Phantom}}-style Supernatural Action comedy complete with an older {{Animesque}} [[WesternAnimation/JakeAndTheNeverlandPirates Jake]] on it, made by a fan on Pixiv. He's best friends with a fan animation of [[WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil Star Butterfly]] that has her depicted as a love interest of him, in a brother-sister relationship similar to [[ComicBook/XMen Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver]] as seen in {{Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron}}. |
550 | ** In fact, as a joke, Jake will be voiced by {{Creator/Michael Rosenbaum}} in his [[WesternAnimation/TeenTitans Kid Flash]] voice. |
551 | *** So basically, a Disney equivalent to {{Film/Scott Pilgrim Vs The World}} with elements of Dark fantasy, Supernatural and some [=JoJo=] into the mix. |
552 | ** Alternatively, Jake could be voiced by Colleen O' Shaughnessey, where he looks like a Pretty Boy who can be Disney's answer to Boruto with elements from Liu Kang while using Animesque elements. |
553 | ** So basically, Boruto Uzumaki + Mortal Kombat's Liu King but with him? |
554 | * A heavily censored Rule34 fan drawing of many WesternAnimation/GravityFalls characters doing something...inappropriate. |
555 | * [[AdaptationalVillainy Villainous versions]] of [[WesternAnimation/KimPossible Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable]], hailing from a series of video acted out by roleplaying cosplayers that they upload onto Facebook. |
556 | * A series of {{WesternAnimation/Steven Universe}}-esque science fantasy comedy-drama action-adventure fanfiction of a daughter of Captain Jake and Star Butterfly when they got married in an Alternate Universe. |
557 | * There will be a series of online message boards that appear in the background that have people stating that they believe various young male characters in Disney cartoon shows are closeted trans girls. It wouldn't be a TakeThatAudience thing, but more of an a FandomNod. |
558 | And adding more into [[OverlyLongGag this will make the list even longer]]. |
559 | |
560 | [[WMG: Ralph and co. will encounter possible new games]] |
561 | * Confirmed in that ''Slaughter Race'' is a new experience to Ralph and Vanellope. |
562 | |
563 | [[WMG: Ralph and co. will enter [[Franchise/{{Neptunia}} Gamindustri]] and meet Neptune.]] |
564 | Bonus points if they can get Melissa Fahn to voice her. |
565 | |
566 | [[WMG: The other Sugar Rush racers will get bigger roles]] |
567 | They'll have some kind of RedemptionQuest to make up for how they treated Vanellope in the last film. Sure, Vanellope forgave them, but it's possible that they still carry some lingering guilt. |
568 | * Jossed. They are set up for a B-plot where Felix and Calhoun adopts them, but then that plotline is dropped and only comes back at the end of the movie. |
569 | |
570 | [[WMG: There will be a game inspired by ''VideoGame/{{The Sims}}''.]] |
571 | The people will speak in a language inspired by Simlish, and everyone will have a hard time trying to figure out what they're saying. |
572 | [[WMG: For a game inspired by ''The Sims'', it will be like that but with elements from American Comic Book and Japanese Tokusatsu Super Heroes]] To be honest, since Super Heroes are very popular today (they are included in many types of games, especially role-paying games and fighting titles), why not do a Sims-esque life simulator game, but with Super Heroes, an open world setting and with RPG elements like Customisation and skill trees as well? And unlike the one above, Japanese and English will be the only spoken languages, to feel like an anime Video Game. |
573 | ** And maybe, take inspiration from Super Hero and Mecha anime and manga too? Imagine some [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann]] references, like someone saying "Just who on Earth do you think I am/We are??!!!" and it would be Cool. Don't forget influences from Kaiju movies. |
574 | ** Basically, ''The Sims'' meets ''The Avengers'', ''Young Justice'' ''My Hero Academia'' and other Superhero and Sci-Fi franchises. Throw a little Godzilla, Rampage, Mothra and other Kaiju stuff in here too. |
575 | *** Don't forget to add other genres in the mix too. |
576 | |
577 | [[WMG: Another version of Ralph will appear]] |
578 | ''Fix-It Felix, Jr.'' is part of a much larger video game franchise, similar to ''Mario''. As the series went on, Ralph transformed from a DesignatedVillain to a genuine one, with games' stories centering around his various plots to destroy Niceland. If the Ralph we know ever met his modern evil version, they'd probably have a hard time seeing eye-to-eye. |
579 | * [[spoiler:Mostly Jossed. Another version of Ralph ''does'' show up, but he is not from another game, but a series of clones of the original Ralph created by the Insecurity Virus.]] |
580 | |
581 | [[WMG: Online multiplayer games will appear]] |
582 | This will also be the chance for [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario]] to finally appear as he was promised, since two of the [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros games]] [[VideoGame/MarioKart series]] he appears in happen to have online multiplayer modes. |
583 | * Jossed on the Mario part. |
584 | * Confirmed in that ''Slaughter Race'' is an online multiplayer game. |
585 | |
586 | [[WMG: There will be a Franchise/{{Pokemon}} reference]] |
587 | It was probably the biggest video game franchise not mentioned in the original movie (albeit for good reason, as the first movie was restricted to an arcade environment). The timing would also be good, since the anime now airs on Disney XD. Maybe Giovanni or Mewtwo appears in Bad-Anon, or maybe there's a scene where [[SeriesMascot Pikachu]] starts speaking normally instead of in PokemonSpeak once he's "off camera." |
588 | |
589 | [[WMG: "Going Turbo" will have a different and more universal name.]] |
590 | Possibly, to connect it to the video game aspect, it would be called [[VideoGame/MegaManX "Going Maverick"]] or something else. |
591 | * Going Turbo is treated as a non-issue in this movie, and the only negative thing about Vanellope's desire to move over to ''Slaughter Race'' is that it makes Ralph jealous. |
592 | |
593 | [[WMG:The bunny that Ralph overfeeds isn't really dead.]] |
594 | It died ''within its own game''. Assuming that mobile games follow the logic of the arcade games, it'll be back. |
595 | * Confirmed in interviews. |
596 | |
597 | [[WMG: The film will be considered a JumpTheShark moment and the start of Disney's next AudienceAlienatingEra.]] |
598 | The big crossover scene with the Disney princesses has been [[BrokenBase very controversial]] so far, with some accusing Disney of PanderingToTheBase (not helping matters is that the princesses behave very out of character in their scene). Plus, the very idea of a film centered around the internet is risky, due to the danger of dating the film with references to memes. Not to mention the ProductPlacement of sites like [=YouTube=] and [=IMDb=]. This film combined with the possible firing of John Lasseter due to his sexual harassment accusations, might cause Disney to step into yet another dark age. |
599 | ** Here's hoping. Don't wanna judge but this movie seems to lack any sort of artistic quality what-so-ever, and I only really see hardcore fans who are into the shipping and crap liking this over the large audience at hand. |
600 | *** As far as WordOfGod goes, [[https://insidethemagic.net/2018/02/interview-wreck-ralph-2-directors-rich-moore-phil-johnston-discuss-disney-princesses-jokes-fate-unlucky-bunny/ the directors made a point of mentioning that they were very aware of the negative possibilities, and are going out of their way to avoid over-commercializing the film]]. It's not a matter of the "hardcore" fans liking the movie no matter what; it's that they're the ones paying attention to more reputable information (like interviews, storyboards, and stuff coming directly from the crew) rather than obnoxious advertising (like the teaser trailer/commercials that are just designed to grab attention for marketing reasons without giving an accurate picture of the movie). |
601 | |
602 | [[WMG: Ralph will get into a fight with [[Music/SiIvaGunner The Voice]], Tabuu, Monsoon, Wood Man [[VillainTeamUp teaming up]] with Robbie Rotten, Psycho Mantis,[[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2SonsOfLiberty Fortune]],Gray Fox, and/or Judge Doom]] |
603 | |
604 | [[WMG: Turbo will return.]] |
605 | We can assume that he attempted to take over other games before finally gaining access to Sugar Rush. By meddling with the game codes, he contaminated them with traces of himself, essentially creating Turbo clones who are just as egotistical and nefarious as he was. And the arcade's [=WiFi=] connection only means that they can seize control over the world wide web, becoming literal ''internet viruses''. What's worse? They can change their codes to take on the form of other characters like how the original Turbo turned himself into King Candy. Imagine one of these Turbo viruses impersonating [[NothingIsScarier Ralph, or Felix, or Vanellope...]] |
606 | * [[spoiler:Jossed. Turbo isn't neither mentioned nor referenced in the film, yet the damage he inflicted on Vanellope's code remains...]] |
607 | |
608 | [[WMG: "Baby Moana" will grow up write a Creepypasta about that game]] |
609 | We all know that is going to mentally scar her. She knows people will never belive her so she writes a CreepyPasta based on her memories knowing it will be the only way to tell people without making people think she's crazy. |
610 | |
611 | [[WMG: Ralph and Vanellope will go to a [[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Disney Parks]] Fan Forum]] |
612 | And it will just be complaining about what rides closed. |
613 | |
614 | [[WMG: The credits will feature Ralph and co venturing to different websites, with varying consequences, culminating with a sequel hook of Malware getting onto Litwak's computer...]] |
615 | ** Jossed. |
616 | |
617 | [[WMG:The game with the bunny was actually one of those games that only pretends to be a kid's game, in the same vein as ''Can Your Pet''.]] |
618 | How would Vanellope have gotten that big cart of pancakes if it wasn't supposed to be part of the game? Maybe, instead of causing a horrible accident, Ralph and Vanellope only sped up the inevitable... |
619 | |
620 | [[WMG: Alan Tudyk voiced King Candy WITHIN the Wreck-It-Ralph universe, as well as outside.]] |
621 | It has now been confirmed that Frozen and Moana exist AS Disney movies within the universe of the film, so it's likely Alan Tudyk, the actor,exists, and that King Candy sounds so much like him because he actually voiced that character for the game, in-universe. |
622 | |
623 | [[WMG: The real-life websites will not have a major role in the movie.]] |
624 | Just like the first movie had cameos from real video game characters but built the plot around several fictional games. |
625 | * Well, eBay is prominent, for one. |
626 | * eBay and Oh My Disney are the only ones with plot-relevant role. The other plot-relevant sites are fictional ones like [=BuzzTube=], [=KnowsMore=] and the gaming site where ''Slaughter Race'' is hosted. |
627 | |
628 | [[WMG: One of the games Ralph and co. run into will be a WOW-style MMO, that will turn out to be a LotusEaterMachine trap.]] |
629 | |
630 | [[WMG: If [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario]] DOES appear, it'll be revealed that [[FakeNationality his Italian accent is fake]].]] |
631 | When not inside his own game, he'll cross paths with Ralph and Vanellope, he'll talk in his familiar Italian falsetto -- but then in a scene PlayedForLaughs, he'll realise he's not in front of any players, clear his throat and [[VocalDissonance a deep, gruff]] [[MythologyGag Brooklyn accent will come out]]. Cue fandom rage. |
632 | * Jossed. According to [[https://insidethemagic.net/2018/10/ralph-breaks-the-internet-story-team-disney/ an interview with Inside the Magic]], they do not have the rights to use Mario -- in contrast to the first movie, where they did have the rights but couldn't find a way to fit him in. |
633 | |
634 | [[WMG: Emulators and [=ROMs=] will be an integral part of the plot.]] |
635 | |
636 | When Ralph searches for ''Fix-It Felix, Jr.'', he will come across ROM sites and emulators. Hoping to recreate the experience of the game through a PC, he and Vanellope attract the attention of the Copyright Police, who hunt the two as they try to escape through a series of websites, attracting a party of emulated video game characters, characters from various browser games, and characters from various games on Steam. Eventually, this leads into hacking the FBI mainframe in a heartfelt story about copyright infringement and freedom of speech. |
637 | ** Jossed. |
638 | |
639 | [[WMG: The HiddenVillain trope will be ''MERCILESSLY'' lampshaded]] |
640 | When that villain reveals themself to Ralph and Vanellope, this will happen. |
641 | -->'''Ralph:''' Oh, so the guy we least expected is the true villain. Who da thunk it?\ |
642 | '''Vanellope:''' Yeah, what a [[SarcasmMode totally unexpected plot twist]] [[WesternAnimation/Frozen2013 that]] [[WesternAnimation/BigHero6 no one]] [[WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}} saw]] [[WesternAnimation/{{Moana}} coming]] [[WesternAnimation/{{Coco}} at all!]] ({{Beat}}) [[CallBack Wait a minute....]] |
643 | ** Jossed. No antagonist so they don't get to talk about that here. |
644 | |
645 | [[WMG: Some of the Disney cartoons will make cameos]] |
646 | As if the crossovers with Marvel, the Disney Princesses and Star Wars weren't awesome enough, let's see what Disney cartoons could make it in. |
647 | * ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' - The titular duo may appear building something in the background. or throw in a scene with Perry. They are Disney Infinity characters, after all. |
648 | ** Alternatively, Phineas could be seen cosplaying as the Franchise/{{Marvel Cinematic Universe}} version of Spider-Man, along with [[WesternAnimation/{{SofiaTheFirst}} Princess Sofia]] as the Kamala Khan Ms. Marvel. |
649 | *** So, a Red haired Boy and a BadassAdorable Princess Cosplay together as Avengers? |
650 | * ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' - A scene with Dipper and Mabel, or at least a pinetree cap, shooting star sweater and/or Journal 3 appearing as Easter eggs. |
651 | * ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'' - Star Butterfly (another new addition to the Disney princesses) makes an unexpected blink-and-you'll-miss-her cameo. |
652 | * ''WesternAnimation/WanderOverYonder'' - For anyone still in the [=SaveWoy=] bandwagon, this would serve at least as acknowledgement that their voices are being heard. Felix and Wander would cross paths and realize they sound alike (you know, Jack [=McBrayer=]), cue Calhoun and Sylvia exchanging eye rolls. |
653 | * ''WesternAnimation/SofiaTheFirst'' - Since Princess Sofia summoned a lot of Princesses, why not? |
654 | * ''WesternAnimation/JakeAndTheNeverLandPirates'' - Captain Jake and Pirate Princess Izzy could be seen helping out. If their Original [=VAs=]s aren't here, maybe Colleen O' Shaughnessey and Ashley Johnson could voice them. |
655 | * ''WesternAnimation/MilesFromTomorrowland'' - The Callisto Family could meet the Guardians of the Galaxy. |
656 | * ''[=DuckTales=]'' - The [[WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987 1987]] and [[WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017 2017]] incarnations run into each other. |
657 | * ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitchTheSeries'' - [[WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitch Stitch]] would probably make a cameo considering that he is a popular DAC character (and he's no stranger to crossovers within Disney either), but this time he may also appear with not only Lilo, Nani, Jumba, and Pleakley, but also [[Characters/LiloAndStitchExperiments his many experiment "cousins"]] who appear only in [[Franchise/LiloAndStitch the sequel material]]. Not impossible either, considering that Splodyhead already got a visual ShoutOut in ''WesternAnimation/BigHero6''. |
658 | |
659 | [[WMG:Some of the Disney Princesses not actually being princesses will be lampshaded]] |
660 | * There could also be a reference to Anna, Elsa, and Moana not officially being part of the Disney Princesses as of now. |
661 | * It could also reference Moana claiming she's not a princess back in her own movie. |
662 | ** Jossed in the actual movie. All of the Princesses are treated as actual princesses. |
663 | * Other quirks that might be referenced include Merida being the only one who's from Pixar instead of Disney. |
664 | ** Confirmed: Merida's Pixar status is referenced both in the sneak peek and the actual movie. |
665 | |
666 | [[WMG: There will be a scene that's a homage to the King of Fighters]] |
667 | |
668 | [[WMG: Disney's Heroic, Manly and ActionGirl Characters (plus some from Pixar, Marvel and others) will have a House of Mouse-like Bar]] |
669 | RuleOfCool if ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} and [[WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb Phineas Flynn]] are the hosts of it, as for the former, it would please the PeripheryDemographic of Disney fans such as Teenagers and Young Adults, while the latter can appeal to Everyone, including Girls as well. In addition, the latter while cosplay as [[Manga/{{Heroman}} Joey Jones]]. |
670 | Other people who would be part of Deadpool and Phineas' [[WesternAnimation/House Of Mouse]]-esque Bar, but the title is called House of Powers and Possibilities: |
671 | * Wolverine |
672 | * Black Widow |
673 | * Judy and Nick |
674 | * Jake Long |
675 | * Indiana Jones |
676 | * Tom Luctor |
677 | * Hawkeye |
678 | * Gwenpool |
679 | * Cable |
680 | * Hiro and Baymax |
681 | ** Baymax is already confirmed. |
682 | * Han Solo |
683 | * Captain Marvel (Carol and Mar-Vell will show up together) |
684 | * Hawkeye |
685 | * Maui |
686 | * X-23 |
687 | * Storm |
688 | * A Wrestling/CMPunk expy |
689 | * Taran |
690 | * Nida |
691 | And more, as well as some UnexpectedCharacter appearances. |
692 | Imagine a ShoutOut to ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKingOneAndAHalf'' where Indy, Tom and Deadpool do a RatedMForManly contest of who can eat a lot for Chimachangas as soon as possible. Double RatedMForManly points for a Wolverine vs. Maui John Cena vs. The Rock-esque match for Johnson's ActorAllusion joke. Triple RatedMForManly points for a Phineas Flynn to join building a HumongousMecha contest. |
693 | Quadruple RatedMForManly points for a Taran, Prince James and Captain Jake vs. Silver Samurai Sword Fighting in the vein of ''VideoGame/SoulCalibur'' mixed up with ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear''. |
694 | * There's an Avengers door at Oh My Disney, but that's all that indicates anything of the sort. |
695 | |
696 | [[WMG: The real-life websites and crossovers with the Disney characters will be not as important as the trailer makes them.]] |
697 | The advertising did not give away much of the plot, instead focusing on the main gimmick of the movie - Ralph and Vanellope encountering real-life websites and Disney characters. However, just like in the first movie, where the crossover with various video games eventually got downplayed as the movie started focusing on the relationship between Ralph and Vanellope, the main focus will be an emotional conflict here too, and the MassiveMultiplayerCrossover aspect will take the backseat. |
698 | * That seems likely, as for the directors stated that they are trying to avoid over-commercializing the film, not to mention that they used a non-existant search engine, [=KnowsMore=], rather than using something such as Google (which appears in the same trailer [=KnowsMore=] appears in), as well as creating the expy website [=BuzzTube=], rather than actually getting the rights to Buzzfeed itself. There will likely be some real-life website scenes (such as the eBay scene shown in the teaser), but the real websites (minus Oh My Disney) will likely have little relevance to the main plot. |
699 | * Mostly confirmed. A lot of the cameos and whatnot are just one-off scenes without any major relevance, though the Disney Princesses not only encourage Vanellope to find her dreams through an IWantSong (ItMakesSenseInContext), [[spoiler: they even end up being [[ChekhovsGunman Chekhov's Gunmen]] and save Ralph's life towards the end of the climax]]. |
700 | |
701 | [[WMG: The Disney Villains will appear together.]] |
702 | Like the princesses, they'll have their own little private hangout spot (a BadGuyBar, perhaps?). This could also lead to some potentially great interactions with Ralph (a ''former'' villain) that could play off of the last film's gag with the video game villains. |
703 | * Perhaps the Disney villains hold their own support group similar to Bad-Anon. I'm sure Maleficent, Scar, Hades, etc. have HiddenDepths. |
704 | * And for a real BreakingTheFourthWall moment, throw Turbo in there too. |
705 | * Jossed, it's only the princesses and assorted Disney and Marvel properties. |
706 | |
707 | [[WMG: Like the princesses and villains, the Disney sidekicks will also have their own hangout]] |
708 | Either Felix or Vanellope, while searching for Ralph, runs into the other sidekicks (consisting of Genie, Tinkerbell, Lumiere, Cogsworth, Olaf and so on) and asks if any of them has seen "a big, red guy with messy hair who kinda needs a bath". What follows is a SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}} where Pumbaa raises his arm - assuming ''he's'' the one being talked about - until being corrected by Timon. |
709 | * In the movie proper, we see a bunch of "cast members" ([[WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs Grumpy]], [[WesternAnimation/PeterPan Tinkerbell, Peter Pan's shadow]] and [[WesternAnimation/{{Moana}} Heihei]]) hanging out by a table in a corridor, and Vanellope runs by a tiny door for the Seven Dwarfs and another one for Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}. |
710 | |
711 | [[WMG: Yesss is Turbo in disguise]] |
712 | She is described as a digital trendsetter who is able to change her look to go with whatever is popular. Now who else is able to shapeshift in order to achieve their goal in being the center of attention? Call me crazy, but going with another theory above, the Turbo viruses made their way into the internet and hacked [=BuzzTube=], with the intent on taking over the rest of the web so nothing else overshadows them. |
713 | * [[spoiler:Jossed.]] |
714 | |
715 | [[WMG: [=KnowsMore=] is Turbo in disguise.]] |
716 | [[Creator/AlanTudyk His voice actor]] is a dead give-away. |
717 | * The internet is a huge information database, and by hacking it, the Turbo viruses would gain access to it. So, yes, it's a possibility. |
718 | * [[spoiler:Jossed.]] |
719 | |
720 | [[WMG: The website [=KnowsMore=] offers is NOT Oh My Disney]] |
721 | They just made it look like that for the sake of the trailer. [=BuzzTube=] would be a better guess. |
722 | * Remember, NeverTrustATrailer. |
723 | ** Confirmed; he actually shows them the eBay link for the Sugar Rush cabinet steering wheel. |
724 | |
725 | [[WMG: Ralph will have an online cult that takes him as a literal [[MemeticBadass Memetic God]].]] |
726 | Ralph has been compared to {{Franchise/Shrek}}, which has a huge memetic fandom known as the brogres. Shrek parodied plenty of Disney Princess tropes, so this film could parody the Shrek memes as "revenge". |
727 | * Wreck-it Love, Wreck-it Life. |
728 | * While there are no references to Shrek memes, Wreck-it Ralph videos going viral and Ralph becoming a trending meme with a big fandom (and {{hatedom}}) is a major plot point. |
729 | |
730 | [[WMG: The Disney Princesses will bond with Vanellope]] |
731 | There would be a lot of potential in seeing the Disney Princesses interacting with Vanellope. |
732 | ** There could be comedic moments-the demure princesses contrasting sharply with the crass and acerbic little racer. |
733 | ** But I can also imagine a lot of heartwarming moments. The Princesses seeing Vanellope as a younger sister, and Vanellope being incredibly touched and looking up to them, having been alone for much of her life. |
734 | *** This could occur after the scenes shown in the trailer, with them asking her what her story is. Then, after Vanellope tells them her story, the Princesses will sympathize with her. Cinderella will probably be the most sympathetic because of the similarities between their stories. |
735 | ** Another heartwarming and hilarious moment would be Ralph trying to get to Vanellope, only for the Princesses to think he is a monster trying to kidnap her. Ralph suffers AmusingInjuries at the hands of the Princesses, before Vanellope clears up the situation. |
736 | ** Let's not forget how she meets them in the first place: she's hiding from the stormtroopers (probably hired by the villain to find her and Ralph). The most likely scenario is them helping her escape. |
737 | ** And even more heartwarming, perhaps by the end of the movie they will give her the title of "honorary Princess", cementing their friendship. They will even pay a visit to the Sugar Rush world so they can watch her race and cheer her on. |
738 | *** Seemingly confirmed. A recent (August 2018) exclusive film still shows Vanellope having warmed up to the Princesses, with the main lineup having taken to wearing modern casual clothes, and according to Vanellope's actress Sarah Silverman, Vanellope and the Princesses actually learn from each other and go through some CharacterDevelopment as a result of their meeting. |
739 | |
740 | [[WMG: The hidden villain will turn out to be Judge Doom in disguise.]] |
741 | The last Disney film that featured cameos from so many characters was "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?", in which Judge Doom was the antagonist. Thus, it would make sense for him to return as the main antagonist for this movie. |
742 | * Jossed. There is no villain. |
743 | |
744 | [[WMG: This movie is one big setup for a punchline regarding the franchise]] |
745 | Namely, after seeing sprites of Wreck It Ralph wandering around the site, the people online become intrigued about the possibility of making a movie based on the game. And thus, Wreck it Ralph 1 was created in universe! |
746 | |
747 | [[WMG: Internet trolls will be prevalent in the film]] |
748 | Posts from cyberbullies manifest into virus-type monsters that verbally and physically harass the other characters. They will be side antagonists, equivalent to the Cy-Bugs from the first movie. Given that online trolling is such a hot topic issue today, it would be a real treat to see how Disney tackles this problem. |
749 | * Jossed. Still an important plot point, though. |
750 | |
751 | [[WMG: The "Wreck the Internet" discussion was made specifically for the trailer]] |
752 | This discussion seems like it's only for a MissingTrailerScene. If not (i.e. if this is Jossed), maybe they'll integrate it into a topic about how Ralph's escapades become known. |
753 | * Confirmed. This scene is not in the movie. No word on whether the Blu-ray will include that under Deleted Scenes. |
754 | |
755 | [[WMG: Disney will create real versions of some of the fake websites as part of the film's marketing]] |
756 | They could even change the actual Oh My Disney website in a way to market the film. |
757 | * Jossed. For one, Oh My Disney didn't seem to undergo a major layout change the week the movie came out. |
758 | |
759 | [[WMG: Ralph and/or Vanellope will end up going into Franchise/TheMuppets area at some point]] |
760 | They may even end up stumbling in while a ''[[Series/TheMuppetShow Muppet Show]]'' performance is in progress and maybe even end up becoming their "very special guest star(s)". |
761 | ** And all the Muppets will of course be in CGI like the rest of the characters in the film and be voiced by the Muppeteers. |

763 | [[WMG: After inevitably falling out with the other princesses, Vanellope will meet the "Rejected Princesses".]] |
764 | This group includes [[WesternAnimation/TheBlackCauldron Eilonwy]], [[WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDameDisney Esmerelda]], [[WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}} Megara]], [[WesternAnimation/AtlantisTheLostEmpire Kida]], [[WesternAnimation/SofiaTheFirst Sofia]], [[WesternAnimation/ElenaOfAvalor Elena]], [[Manga/KilalaPrincess Kilala]], [[Franchise/KingdomHearts Kairi]], [[Film/{{Enchanted}} Giselle]], [[Franchise/StarWars Leia]], and WesternAnimation/{{Anastasia}}. Vanellope finds out why they were all rejected: |
765 | * Eilonwy isn't popular enough |
766 | * Megara and Esmerelda aren't actually princesses |
767 | * Giselle is too expensive, referencing how she was going to be part of the line-up before Amy Adams demanded too much for royalties |
768 | * Sofia is too young |
769 | * Kilala is too obscure |
770 | * Kida and Elena are technically too old |
771 | * Kairi, Anastasia, and Leia are considered "outsiders", referencing the fact that Kairi was technically created by Square-Enix, and Anastasia and Leia were acquired |
772 | |
773 | They proceed to team up to get revenge on the other princesses. |
774 | ** Jossed. In addition, Vanellope manages to get along well with the other princesses. |
775 | [[WMG: Alternatively to the above, some of the Rejected Princesses will held a ''Who Wants to be a Millionaire''-esque Game show]] |
776 | |
777 | [[WMG: The ending and/or TheStinger will feature {{Sequel Hook}}s to both ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory4'' and ''WesternAnimation/FrozenII'']] |
778 | ''Toy Story 4'' is Creator/{{Pixar}}'s next movie, and ''Frozen 2'' is the next film in the Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon. So, to set both of them up: |
779 | * Buzz Lightyear will receive a message from Woody and his friends telling Buzz that they need to go out on a quest to find Bo Peep, who hasn't been seen since ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory2''. |
780 | * Anna and Elsa will be visited by Olaf the Snowman, who tells them that Arendelle is in trouble again, but this time not because of another EndlessWinter--a SequelReset would be very pointless. |
781 | * Characters from both franchises will return to their respective universes via the same thing that Ralph and Vanellope used to cross over from the arcade to the internet. |
782 | * ''Frozen 2'' does get referenced in the movie's Stinger. [[spoiler:But it's not a {{SequelHook}}, just an elaborate JustForFun/{{Rickroll}}.]] |
783 | |
784 | [[WMG: Rancis will join Felix and Calhoun on a search for Ralph and Vanellope]] |
785 | Rancis is the first of the Sugar Rush racers confirmed to return. He could serve as the TagalongKid to Felix and Calhoun, much like Vanellope is to Ralph. Not to mention Rancis has already had ADayInTheLimelight once in the book ''One Sweet Race''. |
786 | * Jossed, Felix and Calhoun don't have a major role in the plot because their intended role was cut for runtime reasons. They adopt Rancis and the other Sugar Rush racers as their children, though. |
787 | |
788 | [[WMG: The film's twist villain(s) will turn out to be...]] |
789 | [[spoiler: The Disney Princesses. They seemed a ''little'' too eager to attack a child, didn't they? Disney has been giving their villains surprise reveals, so giving one to the characters we would least suspect to be villains would take it to its logical conclusion.]] |
790 | * Jossed. |
791 | |
792 | [[WMG: Ralph will grow jealous of Shank.]] |
793 | It's hinted when he shows Vanellope her medal and suggests leaving. He'll probably be worried Vanellope likes her better due to the common interest. Of course, they make amends by the end. |
794 | * More or less confirmed, but it's more directed at Vanellope [[spoiler:wanting to stay at Slaughter Race]] than at Shank herself. |
795 | |
796 | [[WMG: The twist villain will be WesternAnimation/OswaldTheLuckyRabbit]] |
797 | * Jossed. |
798 | |
799 | [[WMG: Shank will turn out to be the villain]] |
800 | She seems to have a bond with Vanellope, but will have something much more sinister in place for her and possibly the rest of her own game. |
801 | * Jossed. |
802 | |
803 | [[WMG: Vanellope's responsibilities as president will be mentioned.]] |
804 | As of the second trailer, Vanellope seems to want to stay where she is and not finish the quest to fix her home game. Someone (possibly Ralph) will bring up the idea that maybe her wishes aren't the only thing that should be considered. Her subjects[=/=]citizens also lost their home and they might not be getting along so well. She might want to consider fixing the game for their sakes, regardless of whether she wants to go back. |
805 | * Jossed. For a throwaway joke, Vanellope does mention being a president at one point, but it's not really brought up again. As for the citizens not getting along, Felix and Calhoun adopt the Sugar Rush racers, [[spoiler:manage to turn the Sugar Rush racers from rambunctious brats to perfectly well-mannered kids.]] |
806 | |
807 | [[WMG: The movie will end with Vanellope skipping back and forth from the arcade to the internet.]] |
808 | She's made a lot of friends there and found somewhere she really likes. ''Sugar Rush'' will be fixed, but every so often, Vanellope will purposely fail to qualify in the Random Roster Race and leave someone else in charge while she goes to visit the Princesses and Shank. |
809 | * [[spoiler:Jossed. ''Sugar Rush'' does get fixed, but Vanellope permanently moves to ''Slaughter Race'' and is written out of ''Sugar Rush''.]] |
810 | |
811 | [[WMG: Alternatively, Vanellope will be granted designated days in the week where she can freely hop between the two.]] |
812 | * [[spoiler:This and the above theory are {{Jossed}}. Vanellope decides to stay in ''Slaughter Race'' and is integrated in the game's code thanks to Shank's work, though a conversation between her and Ralph implies that once in a blue moon she can return while ''Slaughter Race'' is on scheduled maintenance.]] |
813 | |
814 | [[WMG: In addition to jumping between the Arcade and the Net, Vanellope will invite the friends she's made to visit the Arcade every now and then.]] |
815 | In keeping with the above, Vanellope will invite Shank and the Princesses to visit Sugar Rush whenever they can. Shank, being a racer in her own game, will take part in races with Vanellope, sharing a FriendlyRivalry with her. The Princesses, meanwhile, will come to watch their new friend race, cheer her on, and even hang out together in her castle together. |
816 | ** All of these will occur either in the final scenes of the movie or in the CreativeClosingCredits sequence with a montage featuring Vanellope and Ralph exploring the Internet, culminating in them bringing their new friends to the Arcade to visit their games. |
817 | |
818 | [[WMG: [=KnowsMore=] will continue the Weaseltown/Weselton/Weaselton gag from Frozen and Zootopia.]] |
819 | He's voiced by Alan Tudyk, and while he's not named anything remotely close to Weaseltown, [=KnowsMore=] is a search engine. He could easily say something along the lines of "Did you mean 'Weaseltown'?" |
820 | ** Jossed. |
821 | |
822 | [[WMG: If Yesss is the main villain, she'll have a minion named along the lines of "Nooo" that suppresses what isn't buzzworthy.]] |
823 | She has an underling named Maybe, all that's missing is a "No". And if Yesss is up to date with every trend, Nooo is perpetually outdated. If Yesss is an algorithm that promotes and cultivates buzz, Nooo is an algorithm that suppresses what doesn't trend, and what Yesss thinks shouldn't trend. And with a lot of major [=YouTubers=] complaining about the algorithm not promoting their videos like it used to, this'll hit close to home. |
824 | ** Jossed. |

828 | [[folder:Post-release theories '''(UNMARKED SPOILERS)''']] |
829 | |
830 | [[WMG: How Felix "covered for" Ralph]] |
831 | |
832 | While Vanellope being able to leave Sugar Rush makes sense since it had gotten along without her before, Fix-it Felix Jr definitely can't get by without Ralph for even a day. Yet he did just that, with Felix agreeing to "cover for" him. |
833 | |
834 | How did this work? Felix is married to Sergeant Calhoun, and she commands a squadron of Space Marines, who are very large men only slightly smaller than Ralph, so disguising one as him may be feasible. They're also minor [=NPCs=], so Hero's Duty could probably get along with one less for a day. |
835 | |
836 | He probably still can't wreck the building with his bare hands, so explosives would need to be smuggled into the building to simulate that. And there may need to be something soft like a stuntman would use hidden under the mud puddle so he could survive being thrown from the building. Still, it could work for a day. |
837 | |
838 | [[WMG: Felix and Calhoun dealing with the Racers will be the subject of a short on the DVD release.]] |
839 | Considering how such an obvious well of humor was weirdly absent from the film, despite it revolving around two characters who were part of the primary cast in the previous film, this seems like a fairly likely outcome. |
840 | * It is likely, given that Tangled and Frozen, along with several Pixar films (Inside Out, WALL-E, Incredibles 1 and 2) had shorts that take place in the same settings. Granted, the latter shorts were made for the Blu-rays (and ''only'' the Blu-rays). Plus, the WALL-E and Incredibles shorts also take place during their movies. |
841 | * Alternatively, it'll be a spin-off series of shorts with each episode focusing on one Racer. Each episode will show Felix and Calhoun learning to control each one in a different way, leading to the Aesop that, contrary to the joke in the movie's resolution, there's no one perfect way to raise a child and you have to be ready and willing to adapt. |
842 | * Or the short could come to Creator/DisneyPlus, like "Lamp Life" and ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory4''. |
843 | |
844 | [[WMG: Vanellope feels so at home in Slaughter Race because it was made by the same devs]] |
845 | Litwak mentions that the company that made Sugar Rush went out of business, however its possible the developers went on to form a new studio that would later make the world's biggest racing game. It might also explain why Shank was able to edit Vanellope's code so she can regenerate in Slaughter Race, it may even be running on the same or similar engine as Sugar Rush! |
846 | * There were the mock trailers for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wF_LJfwFsE4 all of]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LEY2rO5Sl4 the Core]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDfYyktNA48 Four's games]], but the ''Hero's Duty'' one is the one I am focusing on. That trailer directly opens with a "POWERED BY WRECK-IT STUDIOS" splash. This company may be what was left of the original Tobikomi company following their bankruptcy (and may even have hands on the [=IPs=], if they weren't distributed to InUniverse Namco, Nintendo, Sega, etc). |
847 | * This could also explain why it's never brought up that players might be confused about Vanellope's presence; they'd think it's just a surprise homage to an earlier game from the same people. (Bonus points if the people playing Slaughter Race now played Sugar Rush in their childhood.) |
848 | |
849 | [[WMG: ''Sugar Rush'' is gonna get unplugged again.]] |
850 | Just because [[HandWave Vanellope claims no one's gonna notice she's missing]] doesn't mean that indeed nobody is going to notice. And even if they don't notice and assume she's just not part of the roster today, if ''Sugar Rush'' has really become that unpopular and Vanellope, the game's most popular player, isn't showing up anymore, the game's probably going to become even MORE unpopular. |
851 | * Unlikely. After all, what's going to replace it? Even without Vanellope, ''Sugar Rush'' is still a serviceable racing game. Video arcades aren't exactly as popular as they were a few decades ago, and without a big demand for arcade games, companies aren't turning out new models like they used to, if at all. Thus, even if ''Sugar Rush'' declines in popularity, for Litwak, it's still a choice between a game that makes ''some'' money versus having empty space that doesn't make anything. Thus, it's unlikely to be unplugged just because Vanellope stops showing up. |
852 | |
853 | [[WMG: Spamley is a ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' character's avatar.]] |
854 | Not only his name is similar to "Stanley" but his way to make a living is in-character for Grunkle Stan. |
855 | |
856 | [[WMG: The Racers are afraid Vanellope hasn't completely forgiven them.]] |
857 | She might have told she left because she wanted a new challenge but they might think she never completely recovered from how they used to bully her. |
858 | |
859 | [[WMG: The other character trying to buy the steering wheel also intended to give it to Litwak.]] |
860 | Feeling responsible for it, the parents of the child who removed the wheel from the game tried to buy the replacement. |
861 | |
862 | [[WMG: Gord and Double Dan are related.]] |
863 | Gord's small, round body and huge eyes makes him look a lot like Double Dan's "little brother", and both of them are from the shadier parts of the internet. Perhaps the two of them are made of the same program code. |
864 | * They're cousins, so confirmed. |
865 | |
866 | [[WMG: Gord draws some inspiration from WebAnimation/{{Pamtri}}]] |
867 | Gord can stretch his arms to disproportionate degrees just like the characters in Pamtri's videos, even accompanied by the same rubbery sound effect. His creepy habit of appearing out of thin air is also similar to the jump scares and character transitions in these videos. Just the way he looks mirrors Pamtri's OffModel designs. |
868 | |
869 | [[WMG: Felix managed to fix the manners of the Sugar Rush racers... using his hammer.]] |
870 | Felix's hammer can fix pretty much ''anything'' - including the manners of a bunch of rowdy children. It happens off-screen and we never hear the details because using a hammer to discipline children [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything looks a lot like]] [[AbusiveParents child abuse]]... |
871 | |
872 | * Oh, it's even worse than just hitting them with the hammer. To "fix" their personalities, he'd need to hit them in the ''brain'' with that hammer. In a mad scheme that Tamora suggested and Felix agreed with after both were driven sufficiently insane, she tied them all up and repurposed one of the melee weapons from her game as a crude surgical tool to open their skulls. Then Felix used the magic hammer to "fix" their brains, then repair their skulls. Of course, what constitutes a "fixed" mind is subjective, but the hammer's definition of it is naturally going to match up with the mind of the world it's from's most ideal hero, which is why they all end up as little Felixes. |
873 | ** Oh, and the explanation they gave to Surge at the end? They were perfectly honest about what they did; Surge was just psycho enough to think it actually sounded like a good idea. |
874 | |
875 | [[WMG: The Princesses as portrayed in this movie will be the subject of spin-offs.]] |
876 | Given how much attention was given to them both before and after the movie's release, it wouldn't be much of a surprise if the Princesses got ADayInTheLimelight in future spin-off media, including shorts, a movie, or even an entire animated series! The stories that built around these characters will range from small-scale SliceOfLife stories showing the characters' day-to-day routines and their relationships to each other and other characters on the website to big adventures that involve them. There's potential to be had in the characterization of these iterations of Disney's most beloved characters, so why not go for it? |
877 | |
878 | [[WMG: If the original plan to deal with the Ralph-Clones had been brought to completion, Ralph and Vanellope would have also been vaporized.]] |
879 | Ralph and Vanellope aren't even supposed to exist on the internet, so odds are high that the Antiviruses would have flagged them as malicious programs and acted accordingly. |
880 | |
881 | [[WMG: General "Game Jumping" has lost its stigma in the timeframe between the two movies due to the condition of the arcade.]] |
882 | A lot of games have been lost if the small crowd in the "Wi-Fi" scene is any indication, and Sugar Rush doesn't even rake in $200 annually. As the popularity of the arcade waned, many characters began leaving their games in desperation ''before'' they were slated to be unplugged. While this probably resulted in a few [[SelfFulfillingProphecy Self-Fulfilling Prophecies]] where games got unplugged because important characters jumped the gun, overall the idea of game jumping became more sympathetic, being more akin to a preemptive "Q-bert" than "Turbo". As such, as long as the jumpers did no damage to the games they entered, they were mostly overlooked.\ |
883 | \ |
884 | This could be a reason why Vanellope was never said to be "Going Turbo"; the change in opinion on the subject between the two movies means that would have been a weaker argument. Especially since she of all characters should have been adverse to the idea; her misery throughout much of the first movie was a direct result of it. And if things continue to go downhill, more characters might decide to do the same thing as her, now that they have a more open escape route. |
885 | |
886 | [[WMG: Upon her code-integration into Slaughter Race, Vanellope also got a new skin for that game that she only uses when being seen by players.]] |
887 | I don't recall if she was ever given a canon age (I think elsewhere on this wiki said she was like 9, but I don't know for sure), but she at least looks like a young child, so seeing someone like her in [[UltraSuperDeathGoreFestChainsawer3000 Slaughter Race]] would raise some eyebrows. Turbo[=/=]King Candy already proved this was possible. It might be tricker for Vanellope since Turbo and King Candy were at least the same size and shape whereas Vanellope's skin would be taller, but the ease with which an online game is designed to be update it might make it a bit easier. |
888 | |
889 | [[WMG: The Stormtroopers were to thank for Ralph getting the last hearts in the <30 minutes he had left to earn what he needed.]] |
890 | Before the scene where Ralph's last video fails to upload, Vanellope sent a Stormtrooper to Buzzztube with her pop-up. He saw the videos, liked them, and went back to tell the others about them, earning Ralph his final hearts through word-of-mouth. |
891 | |
892 | [[WMG: On why Ralph said he'd felt like a total zero for 27 years before he met Vanellope even though he clearly said in the first movie that he'd been doing this for 30 years]] |
893 | He used to love his job, for all of three years, then at that point he realized no one was gonna love him as the bad guy so he became jaded over it. |
894 | |
895 | [[WMG: The company behind Fun Bun and Puddles will go out of business.]] |

898 | [[WMG: The Insecurity Virus became The Coronavirus!]] |
899 | |
900 | [[WMG: Some of the bad comments were from Fix-It Felix Jr. fans.]] |
901 | Though it's chalked up to the fact that there will always be haters on the Internet, there may actually be a possible reason why some of the comments may be from Fix-It Felix Jr. fans. Seeing the iconic Wreck-It Ralph showing up in a series of videos parodying a lot of viral videos may have led some fans to believe that the videos were made primarily as promotion for an upcoming remake/reboot of the Fix-It Felix Jr. game, or maybe a new game featuring Ralph as the lead. Many fans may have not liked the idea of a Wreck-It Ralph centered video game, feeling that it goes against what they know with his character. Since Fix-It Felix Jr. mimics a lot of the classic Nintendo arcade games, it makes sense that the company that owns the franchise continued on with the characters and evolved the games to be used on PC and console (much like the real world Nintendo has). Basically, some of the fans mistook the viral videos as a marketing gimmick for a Ralph-centered game that the gamemakers were going to announce and the fans felt that Ralph didn't need a game centered on him. |
902 | * Alternatively, the viral videos were mistaken for promotional material for a Wreck-It Ralph game, with some of the fans thinking that they are getting a Donkey Kong Country-like spin-off with Ralph in the lead. And due to there being no information about any such game being developed by the original company or by another studio working with the company, the fans are pissed off and posing mean-hearted memes because they were interested in seeing the world of Fix-It Felix expanding farther, even if it was a Wreck-It Ralph game, only to have their hopes dashed. |
903 | |
904 | [[WMG: Ralph is gay, or at least bisexual.]] |
905 | When Ralph is saved by the Disney princesses, he's awakened by a kiss from [[WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog Prince Naveen]] as a frog, who Ralph mistakes for VideoGame/{{Frogger}}. Ralph's only reaction to this is a sincere thanks. So apparently, Ralph isn't grossed out by a smooch on the lips from another male videogame character. Alternatively... |

910 | [[folder:Sequel theories '''(UNMARKED SPOILERS)''']] |
911 | [[WMG: The virus will be the BigBad of the third move]] |
912 | It's still out there, and could undoubtedly find another insecurity to spread. |
913 | * Alluding once again to the Turbo theories, Turbo would make the perfect target. Turbo definitely [[AttentionWhore has]] [[ItsAllAboutMe insecurities]] and is already a villain. So an army of Turbos would not be anywhere as forgiving as the Ralph viruses and be more than intent on taking over the Internet. And if you're sure Turbo's dead, just read the theory below. |
914 | |
915 | [[WMG: Turbo is still alive in Sugar Rush]] |
916 | The end of the movie revealed that Shank reprogrammed her game so Vanellope could respawn in Slaughter Race. Recall that Turbo also programmed himself into Sugar Rush. This means between the time Turbo died as a Cy-Bug and the time Sugar Rush rebooted, Turbo could have respawned good as new. |
917 | |
918 | [[WMG: The third movie will deal with the downfall of arcade games]] |
919 | This film entertained the idea that while there are still people who play arcade games, it isn’t enough to keep the developers making those games stay open. The introduction of the Internet in this film is to set up a solution for that, but it won’t be easy with some video game characters, not to mention the real world consequences when older arcade video game characters start showing on the internet en masse. |
920 | |
921 | [[WMG: Turbo will try to become President of Sugar Rush.]] |
922 | Now that Vanellope left her home world for good, the residents will need a new leader. |
923 | |
924 | [[WMG: The third film will feature a racing game based on ''WesternAnimation/WackyRaces''.]] |
925 | |
926 | [[WMG: The third film will be "Disney's most ambitious crossover and epic project" of all time]] |
927 | Combining the ideas above, it will be even DarkerAndEdgier, but still LighterAndSofter compared to both Film/AvengersEndgame and VideoGame/MortalKombatArmageddon in terms of being an ActionizedSequel. |
928 | As the arcade is in danger of shutting down, Ralph and Vanellope form a plan to save their friends by bringing them to the Internet. What follows is a gigantic team-up between video game and Disney characters. Of course with so many iconic faces under the same roof, not everyone will get along at first, to the dismay of Ralph and Vanellope. Things go from bad to worse when Turbo is HijackedByGanon and becomes the next Frieza/Darkseid/Thanos; crossing paths with Double Dan and/or the insecurity virus and subsequently creating an army of Turbos teamed up with a very BadassArmy of Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, Fox and Video Game Villains around the Omniverse, having an intention on dominating the internet, the world and wiping out all other characters. This will persuade the video game and Disney characters to finally band together in order to save their worlds. The Final Fight would be a very emotional HeroicSacrifice done by [[WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb Phineas Flynn]], Ralph himself, ComicBook/{{Deadpool}}[[note]](with Nolan North, Ryan Reynolds and Will Friedle, altogether reprising their role as all of the three alternate versions of him (Mainstream, 2016 and Ultimate), as imagine if the latter did reprise his role, imagine ActorAllusion jokes with Ron Stoppable)[[/note]], Captain Marvel, Rey, a teenaged [[WesternAnimation/GoofTroop Max Goof]] and [[WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil Star Butterfly]]. |
929 | Don't forget to bring on Music/JamProject to compose the epic final battle. |
930 | |
931 | Ralph's Heroic Team: |
932 | * TheLeader: Ralph. |
933 | * TheHeart: Star Butterfly. |
934 | * TheLancer: Not one, but three Deadpools at once. |
935 | * BigBrotherInstinct(s): Teenager!Max (complete with him wearing a Rockstar Prince outfit inspired by the late Music/FreddieMercury and Music/MichaelJackson, complete with a MoonwalkDance), Sora and Hulk |
936 | * SixthRanger: Rey |
937 | * CuteBruiser: Vanellope. |
938 | * TheFunnyGuy: Phineas Flynn. |
939 | * TheSmartOne: Captain Jake |
940 | * ActionDad(s): Iron Man, Captain America and Thor |
941 | * ActionMom(s): Captain and Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers), She-Hulk, Rapunzel, Elsa and Aqua |
942 | Turbo's Team: |
943 | * The BigBad Leader: Shin Emperor Candy |
944 | * Magneto |
945 | * Maleficent |
946 | * Venom, Abomination, Juggernaut |
947 | |
948 | The result of all this is a crossover so grand it will put even ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'', ''VideoGame/MortalKombatArmageddon'', ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate'', the ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ'' trilogy and ''Film/KamenRiderXSuperSentaiChouSuperHeroTaisen'' to shame. Turbo comes dangerously close to [[TheBadGuyWins winning]], but then Vanellope uses his ego to turn the Turbo clones against each other, causing them to argue over who is superior and fight each other to the death, essentially [[HoistByHisOwnPetard leading to his]] [[KilledOffForReal downfall]]. So, before the credits play and after all of the citizens cheered for the heroes and Anti-heroes teaming up altogether to defeat Turbo, we get a very happy DancePartyEnding that takes place in a Stadium that is a gigantic version of an American Football Stadium where Ralph, Max and Star sing ''Heal the World'' by Michael Jackson with everyone and as the song further progresses, it turns into an AudienceParticipationSong, as it would not only have a BreakingTheFourthWall moment, but also have everyone sing that song altogether (just like in the Super Bowl XXVII Halftime show) after they saved their worlds in the Fix-It Felix Jr. world. |
949 | The CreativeClosingCredits will also have an All-Star, elaborated version too. |
950 | * The Disney and other franchise villains will all reform because, just like the video game villains, they are NotEvilJustMisunderstood and simply act evil [[PunchClockVillain because that's their job]]. Ralph, having been through a similar struggle for acceptance in the first film, will be the one to get through to them. |
951 | |
952 | [[WMG: Borrowing from the now-jossed WMG from the Pre-release theories, ''this'' movie will be the one that deals with the arcade closing.]] |
953 | Sugar Rush, implied to be one of the more popular games at the end of the previous movie, doesn't even make $200 a year now. According to some math done on the Headscratchers page, that could mean less than two people play it per day on average, maybe fewer depending on how much Sugar Rush costs to play. With a high-ranking game making so little, coupled with how few characters are in the surge protector as the router's being plugged in (implying several games lost over the years), Litwak's Arcade could be on its last legs, and him buying a router and getting wi-fi in his arcade could have been a last-ditch effort to attract more patronage. However, considering how commonplace free Wi-Fi is in most places, it won't be enough, and Litwak will eventually have to close his doors, unknowingly dooming everyone in those games.\ |
954 | \ |
955 | In desperation, Ralph will return to the internet to find help. Perhaps he could enlist Yesss's help, who could use her pop-up army to spread word of the failing arcade around the internet(bonus points if the other Sugar Rush racers join that like Vanellope did). While it won't bring in any more foot traffic (or at least, not enough of it), it'll catch the attention of other arcades and/or collectors, who could contact Litwak about potentially buying the arcade machines that would otherwise be sold for scrap.\ |
956 | \ |
957 | While the arcade isn't saved, all of the arcade machines end up finding new owners. This could have one of two outcomes for the characters.\ |
958 | \ |
959 | For those that choose to stay with their games, the moral of "Ralph Breaks The Internet" about long distance friends remaining friends is revisited on a larger scale.\ |
960 | \ |
961 | For those that choose to stay together and leave their games(Ralph and Calhoun are the most likely ones to do so, as their games would likely be separated), they would work to find new homes on the internet like Vanellope did with Slaughter Race. This could be the topic of a spin-off series. Meanwhile, the new owners could look at their character-less games and perform a hard reset, causing new characters to be generated and allowing the games to function normally, and the old and new versions of the characters could potentially interact in the aforementioned spin-off series if the new owners also have wi-fi, which is likely. |

963 | [[WMG: Mario will ''finally'' appear in the third movie]] |
964 | Not only making up for the broken promise of him appearing in RBTI, but also giving him a major role in this next installment.\ |
965 | \ |
966 | Our heroes (Ralph, Vanellope and/or Felix), desperate to find any help to stop the BigBad, first consult their good friend Sonic. Sensing how precarious the situation is, Sonic begrudgingly decides to take them to someone who may be able to help - the one and only Mario. Inevitably, the two big video game mascots constantly get at each others' necks, alluding to the long-standing FandomRivalry between their respective franchises, until they ultimately decide to set their differences aside and work together along with everyone else.\ |
967 | \ |
968 | Considering that they've already used Bowser in the first film, why not bring in the other residents of the Mushroom Kingdom for a few gags? Imagine the meme potential of an UnexpectedCharacter appearance by Waluigi. |
969 | * Bonus theory: When he first shows up, Mario is dancing around alone at his place while performing some mundane everyday task, quietly singing "[[VideoGame/SuperMarioOdyssey Jump Up, Superstar!]]" to himself and not noticing he has guests until Sonic pipes up with something to the effect of, "Am I interrupting anything?" |
970 | |
971 | [[WMG: Vanellope will appear with a new character model.]] |
972 | Since her code's been added to ''Slaughter Race'', she will be affected when the game updates or expands, eventually changing her design to match ''Slaughter Race''. This would make a nice metaphor for old friends or family growing up and changing after a lot of time apart. |
973 | |
974 | [[WMG: The other Sugar Rush Racers will get CharacterDevelopment and more screen time]] |
975 | Especially for the fans who haven't completely forgiven their behavior in the first film and those who want to know more about them. Taffyta's soft side could be more explored to reduce her AlphaBitch status. Maybe some fan service for the Rancis x Vanellope ship which started from "One Sweet Race". |
976 | |
977 | [[WMG: The third film (or whatever - just keep reading) will be the [[DarkerAndEdgier darkest one yet]]]] |
978 | An ActionizedSequel, something along the lines of ''WesternAnimation/ShrekForeverAfter''. The arcade closes up and everyone migrates into the Internet. Also '''Turbo is back''' and wants to kill Ralph. There will be heavy {{dramedy}} elements. Some other things: |
979 | * It will actually be a limited series on Creator/DisneyPlus, not only to flesh out the story more but to allow for more IP's from outside companies to show up as cameos, as they just may be a little cheaper to get for TV productions than theatrical movies |
980 | * Ralph gets a love interest (preferably it's Yesss) |
981 | * In the time between the second movie and this, Vanellope's look has changed to be something of a warrior-princess (but still keeping the candy in her hair) |
982 | * There will be another musical number (most of the main cast can sing, and sing well) - would make a great moment of levity just before [[OhCrap shit hits the fan]] |
983 | * Briefly mentioned on the YMMV page, but there will be a scene where they visit a place like Steam, meet some characters, and end up in something like ''VideoGame/PlanetCoaster'' |
984 | * The last scene is of Ralph saying a heartfelt line to Vanellope, followed by the two of them along with the love interest embracing as the sun sets. |
985 | * A SofterAndSlowerCover of "When Can I See You Again" will show up midway through the credits as a nice bit of BookEnds |

987 | [[WMG: ''WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd'' will [[AdaptationalVillainy become]] the BigBad in the third film.]] |
988 | |
989 | [[WMG: The sequel will explore how other multi-game software works]] |
990 | Steam (or Newgrounds) could be seen as a similar concept to Game Central Station. This is why Poker Night exists, and the characters of the installed games and software chill out in the Library when their game isn't being played. Imagine Wilson from Don't Starve chilling with Heavy and Reimu (Touhou is on Steam) and that's why the Ham Shank is in Team Fortress 2. |
991 | |
992 | Even better, as some sort of TakeThat, Ralph enters DDLC and seeing what happens, wrecks everything because the situation reminded him of the Turbo Incident back in 1. |
993 | |
994 | Heck, Steam could be connected to a larger hub if someone also has Friday Night Funkin or Minecraft installed, explaining the crossover mods and characters! |
995 | |
996 | [[WMG: The sequel will be a CameoCluster of indie game characters]] |
997 | Similar to the previous WMG, the sequel will involve Ralph visiting a place inspired by Steam, meeting various indie game characters. |
998 | |
999 | [[WMG: Extreme EZ Livin' 2 will appear]] |
1000 | It was one of games planned for the first film but it got scrapped so this game might finally appear in a Wreck-It Ralph film. |
