The protagonist of "Wreck-it Ralph", Ralph, is a villain in his video-game, which shows that this film does not use stock characters, therefore breaking the macro wall. When he leaves his video-game and goes into "Hero's Duty", the genre of the film changes to more of an action film with explosions and guns, compared to when he goes into "Sugar Rush", which is more of a family-friendly video-game. This shows that the film breaks the macro wall again as it uses more than one genre.
What does 'distort', 'exaggerate', 'break' and 'play' mean?
Distort: the macro of the film changes
Exaggerate: the film conforms to stereotypes and macros
Break: the film does not conform to the stereotypes and macros
Play: the film plays with the stereotypes and macros
Can you find another example of a film that these words apply to?
Distort:
Exaggerate: Cinderella
Break:
Play: Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters
