Miscellaneous Movie Musings

[Alex]

Honestly I haven't a clue. I would never pay for it but I also don't have any sense on how hot the teen passion for Raven is. Five years ago I think it would have opened pretty big (when I saw her and the reaction the Princess Diaries 2 premiere I didn't even know she was still working) but I don't know any more.

She's pretty fun to watch, and it is great to see a normal body figure treated as that (as opposed to a normal body figure being presented as fat but ok). It's a good Disney channel movie (in terms of quality it reminded me of Saintly Switch if you ever saw that, which was a Disney Channel movie).

I kind of wondered if they planned it for TV but then got Lawrence to sign on and figured they might as well try something bigger.
