I haven't seen it as yet, but one of the animators posted his drawings from the movie and they are breathtaking, I feel inspired to watch it:

Pretty forgettable. I liked a couple of the songs, though.


But, honestly, I didn't like most of the Disney Princess movies so I guess I shouldn't have expected to like this one more.

I like it a lot.
The villain is one of the best in the Disney canon.

I thought it was a pretty great movie. Criminally underrated.

I liked it a lot, but too bad it didn't do that well at the box office, it being a traditional animated movie probably didn't help it as well.

Also has one of the best villain song for a Disney film.

Why do you think it performed poorly? Did it have a lot of competition at the time?

disliked it but not bad.

it just annoyed me that for every few minutes of plot/progression they had to shove in another song most of which aren't really good imo(or acquired taste i guess).

apparently it's a 1h38m movie with 13 songs.

by comparison frozen lasts for 1h49m with 9 songs.

so yeah..

3 big reasons. It wasn't released at the best time, and there are slightly more songs than in a typical Disney movie. The biggest reason: Black protagonist. Hurt it in America, completely destroyed it in China.

They released very closely to Avatar which hurted it a lot. Plus the title had the word "Princess" in it which gave the wrong notion that this movie was "girly" as opposed to a movie for everyone (which you can see played a big reason why "Frozen" wasn't called "Ice Queen"). Not to mention it is a traditional hand drawn animation as opposed to CGI, which I believe played a minimal, but a part in why it didn't strike well with its target audience.

Wreck It Ralph lasts 1:41 with 0 songs, give or take the short Sugar Rush theme and the end credits.

I think being hand drawn helped. The movie is adored in the art scene. It's a shame it did so poorly for unrelated reasons, now Disney will never make a hand drawn movie again.
