What's my name? Uhh, Wreck-It Ralph?

This happens so often in movies, it should be its own established cliche if it's not already.

Season 2, Ep 2...

In this case, Cage gets a call from the elderly neighbour of Cockroach's wife and child. He arrives... finds Cockroach beating the both of them... then breaks down the door to stop him.

In the process, he breaks chairs, throws Cockroach at a bookcase filled with momentos all of which crash to the ground, flips him into the coffee table which shatters... on and on.

At this point, the wife is probably thinking: "Dude, you strong AF. Can't you just drag this sorry nigga outside and beat him instead of trashing my house to do it?!"

Hmmmm....

BTW, I'm a big fan of this series so no hate here...

I thought this all the way back in the first trailer for the first season when we see him tear up the Chinese restaurant to stop a group of thugs who were... tearing up the Chinese restaurant.

At the end of the day, it looks cool when people knock down doors and punch through walls. It doesn't usually make much sense, though.

Isn't this supposed to represent the complete rage he was in? Like how he almost killed the guy? It also shows the negative aspects of his power/strength. He can't just go around flicking foreheads every episode....
