"[url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/movie/475269/moviemain.jhtml"]Wreck-It Ralph[/url]," if nothing else, is all about smashing through stereotypes. [url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/person/52454/personmain.jhtml"]John C. Reilly[/url] provides the voice of the titular Ralph, a video game villain who is sick of his bad guy label and sets out to show a different side of himself by invading other realms of the gaming universe.

One such realm is Sugar Rush, a racing game populated by, among others, Vanellope von Schweetz, a nine year-old girl voiced by comedian [url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/person/236511/personmain.jhtml"]Sarah Silverman[/url]. "All she wants to do is race," Silverman told MTV News about her character, "but they won't let her, because she's a glitch."

It's Vanellope's very nature as a glitch that attracted Silverman to the animated comedy, presenting universal themes that even the least video game savvy viewer can latch onto.

"I found it to be kind of beautiful and I connect to it, whether it's real or not," she said. "You realize that Ralph is the same way. He wants to have love. He doesn't want to be the bad guy. I think we share that. We clash at first but we realize we have family in each other, and we realize that your biggest downfall or your glitch can sometimes be your superpower. It's beautiful!"

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
