Originally Posted By Lady Starlight No, not the paper outfits. Now the SFR outfits are another story. I used two leaves and some dental floss for that.

I'm only sort of kidding. I think. Would I go see that movie? I don't know. A lot of teen girls would, though. And then we could get the SFT back!! That's really the main thing, isn't it?

Originally Posted By Dabob2 Watch the original. MacArthur was a good actor, but Kirk and especially Corcoran could be annoying, yet they didn't ruin the movie. You just sort of accepted them as "Disney's boy stars de jure" and the movie worked anyway.

Originally Posted By Dabob2 True enough. But great acting wasn't required for any of the son roles in SFR. They certainly wouldn't have to use the Jonas Bros - they have a whole stable of others. It just occurred to me as a "natural" since they ARE three brothers. And are hugely popular, and could probably handle those fairly undemanding roles. I just want to see SFT back and am working backwards trying to get there!

With all of that loud drumming and fake jungle music, it's just plain annoying. I can hear it all the way through the outside Pirates queue. I'd rather hear the organ music.
