SayWHAT?!

Whoo, long time no post!! So okayyy... what's new?! Besides the fact that summer's almost over. =/ I don't know about yall, but I'm pretty freakin' ready for the fall sem to start. I've been SO bored for the past two months; this has been the absolute most unproductive summer everrr.

Anyway, so I barely ever watch DC anymore. The only time I catch DC is whenever my younger brother turns it on right before we go to bed (which is like around 3-5am) because he likes watching the cartoons (Lilo & Stitch, The Little Mermaid, Dave The Barbarian, The Emperor's New School, Kim Possible, etc). But here are a few blips I've caught lately:


1) Disney Channel Games '08
I seriously could've sworn these premiered already, but nope. The other day I saw a promo that said it premieres this Sunday, July 27 at 8/7c.

By the way, not sure if that pic is from this year or last year. But still. LOL at all the poses and randomness of it all. I'm easily amused, what can I say.




2) Wizards of Waverly Place: Wizard School

Um, yea. So they're coming out with WoWP's first DVD on July 29.

It'll have 90 min. of 4 episodes (Disenchanted Evening, Curb Your Dragon, Wizard School Part I, & Wizard School Part II), also including exclusive cast interviews, backstage and behind the scenes features like "Work It Like A Wizard," and much more.

I'm honestly quite surprised about this. I didn't think WoWP was THAT huge of a hit that they'd actually come out with a DVD for it. Or maybe they're just TRYING to make it a bigger hit, just like what they've been trying to do with everything else on DC nowadays (ie Camp Rock, The Cheetah Girls 3, etc).




3) Studio DC: Almost Live!
Uhh, I don't really know what the heck this is and what weirdo (on happy juice) came up with it, but apparently it's like this new variety show that premieres on Sunday, August 3 at 8/7c. I only saw like a fraction of the promo for this last night, and I got immediately turned off by it, but that's just me and my old age creeping in I guess.

It's basically the Muppets with a bunch of the DC stars like Miley Cyrus, Ashley Tisdale, Jonas Brothers, and the Sprouse twins. There will be singing, dancing, comedy sketches, backstage antics, etc. Miley Cyrus and the Electic Mayhem will perform her song "GNO" (what kind of song name is that?! and besides, never heard of it but don't really care either way), Ashley Tisdale and Kermit the Frog will perform "Bop To The Top" (LMFAO!!), Miss Piggy will attempt to join the JoBros by convincing them she's a long-lost Jonas sister (pfff uh huh okayyy), Kermit and Gonzo will join the cast of The Suite Life for a comedic skit (err?), and many more.

Oh how I wish I was joking about all this, but if yall don't believe me, just go here:

4) Picture This!
I know this is like SUPER late and I'm sure yall have seen it already, but I just thought I'd throw it out there since it IS Disney-related and it wasn't mentioned on here yet.
[EDIT: Apparently I DID mention it already. And just ONE post ago. Oy, I'm going senile, I swearrr.]

This movie is like the most ridiculous movie EVERRR. Seriously, there are countless "say WHAT?!" moments throughout. Though I must say, as ridiculous as it is, it IS entertaining. I like to think that it's one of those movies that doesn't take itself too seriously. I'm just still surprised I found that picture of the DVD, as well as the fact that there WILL be a DVD coming out for this. Just, wow.

Oh, and I just wanna say... I never thought that Robbie Amell was that hot in Life With Derek, but he certainly does look mucho yummy in this movie. Especially in that scene where he comes out of the pool. *drools* LOL at the "Adonis" ref. And LMAO at "I will deflower you in the shower in my tower" HAHAHA, classic! Oh, those Canadians. Gotta love 'em.

Also another side note: LOL at Tizz's name in WAY huger font than the actual movie title.

Alrighty, that's about all for now I guess! Enjoy the rest of yalls summer!!! :)

Disney Channel Stars Are "Just Like Us"... Part Deux

Ooh, two posts in a day! Fun.

Okay, so a few entries back I posted tons of videos that Disney Channel Stars made/starred in on YouTube.

Well... I've got some more!

I had known about some of these videos, but had completely forgotten about them when I made that post. Hence... "Just Like Us," Part Deux! If you haven't seen the first one, go a couple of posts back and check it out!

Also, I know that most of these are really old videos. However, I wanted to mention ALL of them and not leave any of them out, for completion's sake.

First off, we have the ZAC CAM, featuring Zac Efron back in 2005, when they were filming the first High School Musical. Awww, they were so adorable and young pre-fame!

Next, the Sprouse twins jump on the YouTube bandwagon! Here is Cole Sprouse (also known as Cody) in a "Not So Suite Life Mockumentary."

Then, there are some videos of the High School Musical cast goofing around during their concert tour back in 2006. The videos are supposedly being recorded by one of Lucas Grabeel's good friends who tagged along on the tour to make a documentary.

And hereeee is the first one of those! I totally love the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and "come on, getcha head in the game!"

Anddd... this is Lucas in front of the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas REPRESENT!!

Speaking of High School Musical in Houston, I can't resist but to put up a shameless video of my sister and I at the HSM concert, which was being taped for the DVD back in December 2006. Yep, we're on this video probably four times. Please watch. And laugh. Yeah, I know all the lyrics and moves, got a problem with that? ;)

1:47, 2:29, 4:17 - pay attention to those times!

The Suite Life... On Deck

So... after months of speculation, it's been pretty much confirmed that The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, which ended filming this summer, will have indeed have a spin-off.

But no, it's not "Arwin!"

I remember hearing a while back that Disney was planning a spin-off called "Arwin!," which I dearly hoped would never reach existence. Arwin is funny, but he's not enough to carry his own show, let alone sitcom. Maybe a Bill Nye sort of thing, but even that wouldn't really have flown by unless it was a five-minute interstitial or something.

Instead, Disney Channel has decided on a show called "The Suite Life on Deck," which will follow Zack, Cody, London, and Mr. Moseby as they attend a semester-at-sea program. Ashley Tisdale and Kim Rhodes (the mom) won't be returning for the show.

Eh. I really don't know how I feel about this. Let's take the That's So Raven spinoff... Cory in the House is a decent show, but it's nothing like TSR. Without Raven, the show feels a little empty and bland. The Suite Life has plenty of charm, but the charm arises out of the whole cast's chemistry, not just Zack and Cody's, even though the show is named after them. With half the cast gone, plus the Tipton itself, the show will feel very empty, in my opinion. If you want any proof, just watch the episode Team Tipton. HILARIOUS.

ANDDD... I personally love Maddie (Ashley Tisdale's character) and her total sarcasm in The Suite Life, and it's weird that she won't be back. I wonder why... too busy with other projects? Which projects? They Came From Upstairs? Yeah right, okayyy. High School Musical 3? She already managed to do both HSM2 and TSL at the same time AND toured for HSM practically around the world AND made a CD, so I can't see what's stopping her this time. Could it possibly be set drama?! OOOH. I wonder. This kind of reminds me of when Raven left the Cheetah Girls. I don't think we even have a reason for that one either yet.

And for heaven's sake, is the mom pregnant? She totally looked pregnant by the end of the third season of TSL. However, I couldn't find any proof online. If she is, that might explain her absence.

Finally... WHERE IS ESTEBAN IN ALL THIS?! He was my FAVORITE! Unless the show brings in Zac Efron for a randomly non-Disney onscreen make-out session again with Maddie or London, I won't be watching this spinoff unless Esteban is present!

(Okay, I'm kind of kidding here. But I do love Esteban... and Zac Efron.)

Anyway... thoughts about The Suite Life spinoff?
