Do you want to watch an extended, ad-free director’s cut of this episode? What about bloopers, sketches, behind-the-scenes clips, and deep dive lessons on therapy and filmmaking topics? Then join our Patreon! How can your perceived weaknesses be turned into strengths? Do you relate to being labeled as the bad guy? Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are reacting to Wreck-It Ralph and breaking down Ralph’s role as the bad guy. They talk about Ralph not wanting to be a villain and learning to use his gifts for good. They discuss the deeper meaning of being perceived as bad, the roles society assigns us, and how it’s all one big metaphor for life. Alan shares his appreciation for the script (the bad guy affirmation!), the comedy genius of Sarah Silverman, and how a cartoon bad guy can make him cry.

According to SAG-Aftra, independent film reviewers are welcome to discuss movies that have already come out. These films were produced under previous contracts and wouldn’t be affected by any changes resulting from the strike. Any praise for the films we discuss is praise for the writers, actors, directors, and so many other artists and craftspeople who made them. Without their labor, we wouldn’t be able to watch our favorite films together. Without their labor, our show wouldn’t be as impactful. Without their labor, our show wouldn’t exist.
