Me: I played Stunt Racer FX. And I may have played Burnout. Or maybe I just watched someone play it, I'm not sure.
Vanellope: How can you write me if you haven't played a kart-racer?
Me: Uh.
Sgt. Calhoun: You're terrible at first-person shooters, too.
Me: But Elebits--
Sgt. Calhoun: Finish Metroid Prime, soldier.
Me: Yes, ma'am.

Characters: Sergeant Tamora Jean Calhoun, Fix-It Felix
Summary:
The world that Sergeant Tamora Jean Calhoun had been born into was not kind.
I love the worldbuilding and handling of disability and Sgt. Calhoun's voice and EVERYTHING.
So, Wreck-It-Ralph is my new favorite thing! I mean, you have video game characters who know they're video game characters! And Kano from Mortal Kombat* shows up in a PG-rated movie and rips out a zombie's bleeding heart!! What's not to love?
( Spoilers for everything. Also, me rambling about disability until I got tired, even though there is more about disability I could say and WAY more to these characters than that )
