You know... that Disney inhouse CGI movie about the video game bad guy who wants to turn his life around?

Well, it turns out, Disney isn't just creating a bunch of video game villains for the movie... they actually have VERY famous video game villains in the film.

That's right. King Koopa, Zangief, and Dr. Wily are in that photo. I hear tell Dr. Eggman as well.

If nothing else, I would pay the 10+ bucks JUSt to see ol' Dr. Wily, even if he just flickers across the screen in a second.

Seriously?

What kind of video games do you play if you don't know Dr. Albert Wily?

Just checked it up, he's from Mega Man.
See I never liked that game. So I never played the whole thing

I hope they don't become too focused on putting in game references that it affects the plot.

I'm sure that's just a brief part of it... a bunch of nods here and there. Still... seeing Dr. Wily, King Koopa (and reportedly) Dr. Eggman... That's like my three favorite video game villains right there. This is turning out like a video game character equivalent of Roger Rabbit!

I guess it's too much to ask that they got Scott MacNeil to return as Wily and Mike Pollack to play Eggman (if that's true) if there's some sort of union problem (like there was with the TMNT anniversary special).

This is the first time I'm hearing about this movie. Where have I been? Usually I'm on top of the latest video game news.

I'm not really sure what to think of the plot though
