TBT to Old School Disney

We should consider ourselves lucky. Us 90’s kids grew up in the time of the greatest Disney Channel original movies, you know the ones that were actually cool and consisted of more than teenagers doing bad dance moves? Yes, Troy Bolton, I’m talking to you. I’d like to take a minute to remember the good old days, the days before the Disney dark ages…

My Date with the President’s Daughter (1998)

 

“Come on I want you to meet Daddy!”

“You mean the president? Of our country…?”

Halloweentown (1998)

 

 

Don’t even tell me you didn’t walk around your house trying to open a Halloweentown portal…

Reminding us that a little fan-girling and some black mailing can you land you in a music video.

 

Let’s be honest, these movies were and always will be the best. Can we petition to bring them back? Shout out to the kids of today who don’t know what they missed out on. The kids who have to watch Teen Beach Movie (what even is that…). The kids who will never understand the true meaning of Zetus Lupetus.
