Line 55:
* [[Death by Cameo]]: He himself makes a cameo in each of his films where he gets killed with the exceptions of ''[[The Lord of the Rings (animation)|The Lord of the Rings]]'', ''[[Fire and Ice (animation)|Fire and Ice]]'', ''[[American Pop]]'', and ''[[Cool World]]''.
* [[Disney School of Acting and Mime]]: Ralph dislikes Disney acting, feeling that its become stale and cliche, and that animators should try and experiment with new types of acting:
{{quote| ''"When I hear 2D animators today talking about acting in hand-drawn cartoons, I ask, what kind of acting? Are you talking about the old fashioned acting that [[Seen It a Million Times|animators have always done]]? You know… the hand on the hip, finger-pointing, broad action, lots of [[The Twelve Principles of Animation|overlapping action]], screeching to a halt- all that turn-of-the-century old fashioned mime stuff. Is that what you’re talking about? Well, forget about it. If you’re gonna compete with computer animation, you better go all out and do something that’s totally different. Call it “new acting”. Blow the computer out of the water."'' }}
* [[Doing It for the Art]]: Ralph made his films very personal and gritty to contrast to Disney's obsessiveness with slickness and escapist entertainment.
* [[Executive Meddling]]: He's a frequent victim of this, particularly with ''[[Cool World]]'' and his TV series ''Spicy City'' (which led to the latter being cancelled despite decent ratings).
