For as long as I could remember, Disney films have always been close to my heart. They serve as an escape from all the problems I face from time to time. I get lost in the world Disney has made up for me; from life as a princess in a castle to life as a video game character in an arcade and to wherever my imagination takes me. I am now16 years old and my love for Disney has not died out even a bit. Up to this age, I watch out for new movie releases and immediately go to the cinema on the nearest date available, as childish as it may seem. Disney movies are often characterized by the presence of heroes and villains, the “bad” guy realizing and correcting his mistakes and basically, the success of good over evil.

The aesthetic aspect may have had differences because of technological advances, but I believe that the principles embodied in the movies are universal. I remember at the age of around 4 or 5, my favorite movie was the Lion King. The most important thing that stuck to me is that life revolves around a circular path.

Wreck-it Ralph showed me that an arcade can be more than a dark place full of geeks. The arcade is a place full of emotions, you can see and hear people crying while others are laughing and shouting at the game in front of them. One main character in the movie is Ralph, the villain in the game Wreck-it Ralph; he is a tall, big guy with large hands. Quoting Ralph, “It becomes kind of hard to love your job when no one seems to like you for doing it”. What made Ralph extraordinary is the fact that he tried to do something about the situation. He did his best effort in trying to get a medal, to the point that he went to a totally different game full of gunfire, bugs bigger than him and bomb explosions. In the middle of his journey, he met a young girl, named Vanellope. She was the playful type of kid, that “borrowed”, Ralph’s medal as her ticket to the annual race. The old, “empty” Ralph was suddenly fueled with joy and love for this little girl. He learned the feeling of compassion and love. Wreck-it Ralph taught me that it is okay to feel down at some point in time because there will always be somebody to pick me
