ORIGINALLY, THE GAME BUGGED! AU WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ANGSTY, BUT NOW I HAVE A SLICE OF LIFE AU. (Things may go wrong later....)
Short summary so far, instead of Turbo becoming King Candy, he ends up infiltrating the game Fix-it Felix jr. He's the even worse neighbor of the Nicelanders. And by default, commonly angers Ralph.
I was reviewing some footage and . I SWEAR TO GOD. THERE'S A REASON FOR EVERYTHING IN THIS MOVIE.
This part is subtle foreshadowing/setup that Vanellope's glitch can travel to others.
Taffyta is completely fine because her code is stable and she's native to the game, meaning she's easily correctable. (speculating)
Turbo isn't able to recover because he's not native to Sugar Rush and his code is a tangled mess. The game doesn't know how to "correct" him after an error. (Rip bozo)
And both are from yanking someones arm in attempt to defend herself. Taffyta trying to hurt her emotionally and Candy trying to hurt her physically. Man.
ALSO VIDEO EDITION BECAUSE I COULDNT DECIDE WHICH FORMAT I LIKED MORE
So, hey, I recently found out that King Candy was added to the game Disney Magic Kingdoms! Not only that, but he actually has an unlockable skin of his Turbo form too!
But what really gets me is that they actually created a plot related explanation for King Candy's return, revealing how he survived his fate at the end of the first movie!!
Basically, it's revealed that King Candy's code wasn't deleted when he died, but laid dormant. When Litwak installed the replacement steering wheel onto the Sugar Rush arcade cabinet (at the end of RBTI), it somehow booted up King Candy's code and restored him!
From there, after King Candy assesses his situation, he attempts to take revenge on Ralph and Vanellope. There's even a plot related reason for him going back to his old Turbo form later on, too! I won't go into all the details, but you can look it up on the Disney Magic Kingdoms wiki >>here.<<
So as I was reading all this, I just kept thinking "should any of this be considered canon??" I mean, maybe not events specific to this game, but the detail of King Candy being dormant in Sugar Rush's code and possibly being revived somehow.
I mean, it would actually make a lot of sense that King Candy didn't really die at the end of the first movie, given that RBTI revealed characters could get around the "dying outside your game" rule by being programmed into a different one. Like, that's LITERALLY what King Candy did! We saw his code box integrated into Sugar Rush!
So don't you tell me that he's not still alive, damn it! (seriously, it just tickles me to think that RBTI's sloppy writing and disregard for continuity indirectly retconned King Candy's demise. XD)
Which brings me to my next point: WHY THE HELL IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THIS?? lmao
But like… what if turbo had the same vibe as his cabinet art idkdkbshsshhvhgh turbo if he was a good guy hghj I’m having a seizure
