Crossover Insider: Academy Awards Summary, New Releases & More

The creative minds at Disney’s animation department struck gold again. In 2012, we were introduced to Ralph- an arcade game character who sets out on a quest to become a hero. Fans young and old grew to love Ralph and, in turn, “Wreck It Ralph” was a huge success. Fast forward to 2019, and Ralph is back. This time, Ralph and friends make their way thru the crazy world of the internet.

There are a total of three new releases this week, with a brief synopsis of each below;          

Ralph Breaks the Internet: featuring the voices of John C. Reilly, Sarah Silverman and Gal Gadot- After discovering a wi-fi router in the arcade, Ralph and Vanellope set out on an adventure through the internet. (Family/Animated) (DVD and Blu-Ray) Also available to rent @ 2 Doors Down in Manitouwadge!      

Possession of Hannah Grace: starring Shay Mitchell and Grey Damon- When a woman, fresh out rehab, takes the midnight shift at the city morgue hospital, she begins to experience a series of increasingly horrifying events.
