Seriously Disney- WTH???

Does anyone other than me remember the good old days when Disney made animated movies instead of teeny-bopper flicks? i watched Camp Rock today, mistakenly thinking that Disney had produced enough crap lately that sales would be down enough to force them to make quality films again. Kinda like the good old days before they started making half-assed and seriously baked sequels and trilogies for the amazing original animated films.

Ha.

I hope i run out of this down home naivete quick. i just keep getting smacked in the face with reality at every turn. it's ugly. so was Camp Rock, or, as i will henceforth call it- Camp The-Seriously-Half-Assed-Suck (Camp TSHAS if you will-for bonus points pronounce the T like you were saying Ptarmagin) Camp Tshas was so boringly predictable that i watched only about 30 minutes of the actual movie (15 at the beginning, 15 at the end) and i knew exactly what was going to happen. Wow- the "disaffected misfit"has trouble fitting in and making friends, but despite a full 75 minutes of this comes out of her shell during the last 15 minutes and snags the barely legal heartthrob of the movie. What a new and exciting plot!!!!

And no- it's not because i have ESP. It is because my beloved Disney of yesterday has turned into an uber mass-marketed bag of ass-tacular WTF-ery.

Disney- you fail. And not even your teeney-bopper versions of showtunes (despite the seriously lame/semi-entertaining lyrics) can save you. You have become such a Beast that even Belle has disowned you. Shape up before Lumiere and Cogsworth ditch too.

However- i will give a shout-out to the Jonas Brothers. They are like the new Hansons. And we all loved the Hansons. Admit it. For your viewing pleasure (and to make up for a really big rant):
