By that standard, Lasseter also oversaw "Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue". Being executive producer doesn't mean much on a product's overall quality.

To be fair, the Tinkerbell films were far into production when Lasseter took over. He wanted them canceled, but they had already put a ton of money into them, so he had no choice but to release them.

It would be a no-brainer to put Marvel characters in as an homage to crossover fighters.

looked it up and that has a 6.7 on IMDB, looks like it was targeted towards young girls but that doesn't automatically make it suck

Looks awesome! I wonder if there'll be "games" from licensed properties? So far only two original ones.

Found a more in-depth synopsis

Wreck-It Ralph (voice of John C. Reilly) longs to be as beloved as his games perfect Good Guy, Fix-It Felix (voice of Jack McBrayer). Problem is, nobody loves a Bad Guy. But they do love heroes so when a modern, first-person shooter game arrives featuring tough-as-nails Sergeant Calhoun (voice of Jane Lynch), Ralph sees it as his ticket to heroism and happiness. He sneaks into the game with a simple plan, win a medal, but soon wrecks everything, and accidentally unleashes a deadly enemy that threatens every game in the arcade. Ralphs only hope? Vanellope von Schweetz (voice of Sarah Silverman), a young troublemaking glitch from a candy-coated cart racing game who might just be the one to teach Ralph what it means to be a Good Guy. But will he realize he is good enough to become a hero before its Game Over for the entire arcade?

OK, I NEED TO SEE THIS MOVIE NOW.

I'm actually salivating here, the premise sounds awesome. I hope to god it doesn't flop.
 
Oh well, the rest of us will have fun watching it.

I'll probably still watch it. It's a movie, what do I have to lose? Two hours?

I just think this was a chance for this movie to be more than Seth McFarlane-style references to material. It does not appear to be. You do not need to get defensive or draw lines in the sand because I did not agree with you. You're better than that.

I don't see what's the big deal with SF2 characters showing up, spotting them is fun and all but not anything mind blowing.

...now TERRY BOGARD, showing up as an English teacher? THAT would be brilliant.

Watching M Bison, Zangief, and Bowser all in the same room and game accurate is so surreal.

Hopefully Gief is only in 'villain rehab' because of his bear piledriving antics.

OMG, trailer looks awesome. I can't wait to see what heroes pop up. Probably saving that for the next trailer.

Too obscure.

Think about this in a Toy Story manner. Toy Story has some toys that are just outside of the mainstream, but are not so obscure as to not get laughs.

The parents that will take their kids to see this won't remember somebody like Terry Bogard, but they're going to remember Zangief or M. Bison or Chun Li as "Those guys from that fighting game at the pizza place I went to 15 years ago!" They'll get them just enough to make it fun.

How the hell did you get Seth mcfarlane out of this trailer?
