NOTE: We see various 8-bit style animations and backgrounds throughout the credits.
Special thanks to Kevin T. for this submission
The actor credits have short 8-bit style animations running alongside the scrolling text. The remainder has 8-bit style backgrounds scrolling behind the credits. At the very end, the Disney closing graphic “glitches” and we see bits if 8-bit style gaming characters appear mixed into the screen.
The after credits were actually a reference to a so-called “kill screen”, specifically level 256 of Pacman. Check this out for details: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kill_screen
Ah! Thanks a lot for that! I’m aware of kill screens, the most famous ones being Donkey Kong and Pac-Man. I haven’t seen the film yet unfortunately so I haven’t been able to connect the dots yet. Thanks again for the extra info!
Thanks for the clarification. The kill screen caught me by surprise because the left half of the screen looked okay and I turned around to gather my stuff. I turned back and saw Ralph with the two cherries and managed a better look before the screen went blank.
Got a pic of the kill screen when I went to another screening today. You can compare this with the Pacman screen that Nekotripp posted above.
-LINK REMOVED-
Thanks for that, however I did remove the link. I’m a little paranoid with posting that sort of stuff while it’s in theaters. Don’t want to get the suits after me!
I like how it has arcade characters in it though. Pretty cool!
