Disney’s “Wreck-It Ralph” Creates 8 Bit Lane In London Dan Koelsch, January 12, 2013 It’s hard to believe that Disney’s latest animated film Wreck-It Ralph doesn’t open up in the UK until February 8th, over three months after its US release. Fortunately, Disney makes up for the wait a bit by creating 8 Bit Lane in London near the The Truman Brewery. Get the details after the break. Wreck-It Ralph is an adventure where arcade video games are alive and the title character jumps between them trying to be a hero.
