Free Screening of "Wreck-It Ralph" (PG) Saturday, April 6th, 2013, 2pm

Wreck-It Ralph    April 6th, 2013 (Sat)    2pm

Wreck-It Ralph is a funny animated movie about an arcade game "bad guy" (John C. Reilly) who's tired of being overshadowed by "good guy" Fix-It Felix Jr. (Jack McBrayer) and goes game jumping while the arcade is closed in an attempt to reinvent himself. Felix heads out to drag the oversize Ralph back to their own game, and the pair travels through a time warp of arcade games from the past 30 years that's absolutely hilarious and will cause you to never look at an electrical outlet or surge protector in the same way again.  What makes this film so hilarious is the avalanche of subtle, and not-so-subtle references to past arcade games and the clever comic exaggeration of everything from teaching someone to drive a stick shift to creating a volcanic eruption with Mentos and diet cola. The animation is great, the humor abundant, and the lessons that everybody's got a job to do and it's important to love yourself aren't bad either. 

Rated PG for some rude humor and mild action/violence. For more details on content advisory, click hereWatch the movie trailer here.

Free admission.  Bring your own snacks.
