What are your thoughts?

Originally Posted By FerretAfros Good Luck Charlie was pretty good, and Phineas & Ferb is a lot of fun (though they seem to be letting it die a slow and painful death, with new episodes released randomly every few months), but everything else is pretty bad When I first heard of this movie, it reminded me of so many of Disney's recent theatrical releases: spin-offs and sequels that nobody asked for. Similar to the Eisner-era cheapquels, it seems like Iger has his own modus operandi. I don't mind seeing a little more classic Disney stuff infused with the modern Disney Channel (like the old Dumbo and Alice shows I remember from my youth), but this just doesn't seem especially inspiring to me It seems like the DCOMs have a better track record than the series-es, but maybe I just have selective memory. If this can capture some of the sweetness of the original High School Musical, the fun campiness of Teen Beach Movie, or the heart of Geek Charming, then I have some hope that this could be okay. Given how long they've been publically working on it, I'd hope that they're doing it right

For example, I love Full House, even though I watch it now and realize it is rather terrible. I actually watch a lot more Disney Channel than I should. Girl Meets World is one of the best shows DC has ever aired. (Though, while it does come close, nothing will ever top That's So Raven. Nothing. Ever.) I'm also really pumped for Teen Beach Movie 2, as the first one was a ball of fun and had a great soundtrack. Descendants interests me a lot, especially due to the great cast, wonderful costumes and KENNY FREAKING ORTEGA. Gotta love him.
