Talk:Rayman in popular culture
Publicity
I wonder if I can add a trivia inside the audiovisual publicity/television advertisings. I do remember to see back in more or less 2000/2001 a portuguese television advertising about the Nestlé's cereals of Chocapic, but more aware eyes could see the kid in the PlayStation 1 playing Rayman 2: The Great Escape. Sadly the video isn't in the internet. --

- I suppose that would be fine. Rayman advertisements don't count as popular culture, but non-Rayman ads that happen to have Rayman in them might. —Spiraldoor

- Can I have a link to the "Everybody Loves Rayman" video? I can't find it on Youtube. --iHeckler9

Supposition vs confirmed
If I'm being brutally honest, there's too many instances of "MIGHT BE" or "COULD BE" in this article.
Yes, Sour Bill has Raymanian Limbs, but as that link shows, Rayman's only a notable example of the trope. It very well could be that he's limbless for limblessnesses sake, and not in a referential manner. Likewise, "Q-bert Origins," granted, the Origins might be in reference to Rayman Origins, but I haven't seen anything that firmly proves it so, and so with the Kingdom Hearts example stated.
I'd rather see this page stick to things which are absolutely confirmed as references, and not a page tacked on with one too many of "ooh...maybe?" --

- Of course, every limbless beings of the pop culture aren't based on Rayman.
- If I must justify the presence of Sour Bill and the Guard Armor, I would say that:
- - Wreck it Ralph is full of obvious and hidden references to video games. So the lack of limb of Sour Bill may not be insignificant
- - The Guard Armor is purple (most of the time), it can throw his hands and do a spin attack
- But if you think there is no place for supposition in this article, I have no objection to a correction. -- Boomboleros7 19:54, 11 February 2015 (CET)
