The more screen-time the iconic characters get, the more chances there are for Disney\/Pixar to do them &quot;wrong&quot;. Having the central characters be similar to, but not quite, known characters is probably a good move, in that respect (for example, there's some pretty clear classic Donkey Kong influence in Ralph, but he _isn't_ Kong)."}
