10 Continuity Errors In The WreckIt Ralph Franchise

One of Disney’s finest, most underrated films is Wreck-It Ralph. It isn’t your average princess film in the most overt, stereotypical sense, but it does feature arguably the funniest and most unique ‘princess’ the multinational conglomerate has ever created. The first film was a heart-warming way for Disney to look at more modern settings, while the second was a very meta, forward-thinking film.

However, both are littered with errors in continuity that create issues between scenes and franchise entries. We’ve listed 10 of the biggest offenders.

10 Persistent Branding

10 Continuity Errors In The WreckIt Ralph Franchise

The end of the first Wreck-It Ralph film shows the end of King Candy’s reign over the “Sugar Rush” game, with the defective character revealed as a crossover from an unplugged game long abandoned. However, in this new utopian version of the racing game under the control of Princess Venellope Von Schweetz, you’d think the logo and face of King Candy would be wiped from the track after it was reset into its former glory. As this reset effectively takes King Candy’s involvement away, he shouldn’t have any presence in the game whatsoever.

9 Deanna’s Dress

10 Continuity Errors In The WreckIt Ralph Franchise

One of the Nicelanders in the “Fix-It Felix, Jr.” game, Deanna doesn’t exactly play a major part in the story of the film but is nevertheless a recognizable presence. There is one scene in the first film that allows her to get all dressed up for a dance. At first, she is wearing a flowery, shiny dress.

However, after she has taken Felix onto the dancefloor, her dress becomes plain pink. It transforms back into the more exuberant attire pretty soon after, suggesting that the one particular shot without detail must have been a mistake that was forgotten about in post-production.

8 Vanellope’s Car

10 Continuity Errors In The WreckIt Ralph Franchise

Considering her car is literally made out of sweets, it’s pretty impressive that Venelope’s car works at all. However, its design ends up quite inconsistent. There are six straws that make up the exhaust pipes of her car, and they are the same throughout the entire film, other than one time before Felix and Ralph first enter her game, where they are swapped over. Similarly, there is a strawberry on the wheel in the front right and a lemon on the left. These swap over during her crash.

7 Calhoun’s Gun

10 Continuity Errors In The WreckIt Ralph Franchise

Calhoun begins the film by seeming like an imposing, violent and aggressive figure. She is quickly enthralled by Fix-It Felix’s nice guy personality and the two fall in love, revealing her much more tender side. However, she still wanders around with a massive, terrifying gun most of the time.

She leaves that particular gun in the middle of the rainbow bridge when Sugar Rush is glitching its way out of existence. When the film shows this particular scene from above, there is definitely no gun laying in the middle of the otherwise empty bridge. Where did it go?

6 The Finish Sign

10 Continuity Errors In The WreckIt Ralph Franchise

Toward the end of the film, Ralph and everyone else is making their way to Game Central Station (a clever pun on Grand Central Station, as you may have noticed). When Ralph wanders past the sign at the finish line of the track he is on, it clearly says ‘finish’. However, the sign changes to ‘start’ in the next scene, before quickly changing to ‘finish’ again, and remaining like that. Maybe the scene that said ‘finish’ first was edited to come earlier than was originally intended?

5 The Violent Oreos

10 Continuity Errors In The WreckIt Ralph Franchise

Oreos don’t seem like they’d be a violent cookie. However, in the first Wreck-It Ralph film, they act are King Candy’s defensive henchman, each equipped with spears. When Ralph is at King Candy’s castle, they’re all poised and ready to launch them right at the protagonist.

However, the shot changes and they’re just holding them in a relatively non-threatening way. When King Candy dismisses them again, they all lower their weapons, despite the previous scene having shown them already having been lowered.

4 Time Issues

10 Continuity Errors In The WreckIt Ralph Franchise

Between the two Wreck-It Ralph films, six years have passed. If you think about it, that’s a long time for Ralph and Venellope to have been living out their respective repetitive lives. However, in that first film, it is the 30th anniversary of Ralph’s game, suggesting he had existed for 30 years. He is a key element of that game, after all, and so has surely been there the whole time. Ralph Breaks The Internet messes with this continuity by explaining that Ralph and Venellope met after Ralph had existed for 27 years, which makes the math pretty confusing and nonsensical

3 Litwak’s True First Name

10 Continuity Errors In The WreckIt Ralph Franchise

Mr. Litwak seems like a lovely guy. He makes sure all of the kids in his arcade are having a great time, and even upgrades his arcade to have internet connectivity when he feels it is necessary. He might not be able to afford the new wheel for Venellope’s game, but he wishes he could.

He can’t seem to decide on a name, though, and changes his identity between films. The first suggested that his first name was Stan, but by the second his name badge identified him as Del.

2 The Game Changes

10 Continuity Errors In The WreckIt Ralph Franchise

One of the more overt problems in continuity comes from the actual real-world existence of Venellope’s game, “Sugar Rush.” As the broken steering wheel is the starting point for the whole of the second Wreck-It Ralph film, they had to develop the console from its two-seat, car-simulation existence for the first time, and replace it with a set-up that uses just one steering wheel with no connected seat. Nothing about this change is mentioned, leaving the audience to wonder how the set-up of the same game ended up completely different across the six-year time jump. It doesn’t even make much sense, because there still could have been a broken steering wheel in the game’s original configuration.

1 Ralph As Snow White

One of the best things about Ralph Breaks The Internet is the ability for Disney to call upon all of their existing products and turn them into a spectacular, self-referential quest full of meta-references and inside jokes. We see characters from everything from Star Wars to Moana, and even Snow White (the oldest Disney princess) makes an appearance. Ralph dresses up as Snow White himself, but when he gets into the dress, he doesn’t take off his own (fitting) clothes.

Obviously, hers don’t fit very well, so he ends up ripping the dress and revealing his bare stomach. This doesn’t make a lot of sense, because his own clothes underneath should have already been fully covering him.
