I think that fans of the original will probably like the spin off, and people
that don't like the original won't like the spin off.

But personally, my favorite part of The Suite Life was Ashley Tisdale. And she's
not in "On Deck" so I know I won't like the new series nearly as well. But I'll
still watch the first few at the very least and see how it is.

There is a new show on DC called the Suite Life on Deck. It is the
same Zack and Cody from the hit series "the Suite Life of Zack and
Cody" but they trade in the hotel life for a cruise ship life. This
might be a spin of the series. So my question is if we should see this
one or just skip it like we do with most DC shows nowadays.

Better get ready for the 6th of January! It will be poppin!

You know what political damages this can do, It will strengthen the
stereotypes that only girls watch Hannah Montana which men like Barack
Obama watches and only boys watch Phinneas and Ferb which annoying
girls watch sometimes. It's all about discrimination. I can't believe
Disney, a company that encourages unity among the people of the world
will resort to a thing like this. Another example of Disney
stereotyping is the way NYC teens are portrayed in ADJL. Spud is the
only "normal" kid. Jake and Trixie uses too much of senseless slang
like "livin lime in the summertime" What the hell that means? We use
slang but it makes SOME sense to the old folks. How I know, I live in

Animated shows that had a sanctuary on TD such as Kim Possible or
American Dragon are in serious trouble. I've mentioned my theory that
KP will soon be removed from DC - without TD it will likely be gone
from the air entirely! And by making a DC for boys, it will also make

The Disney's W.I.T.C.H. Forum and the Save W.I.T.C.H. Movement are proud to announce the creation of our official online petition and W.I.T.C.H. fanlisting.

http://savewitch.org/join/

Save Disney shows has been on the cutting edge of new techniques to save shows since the formation of the organization in 2004. One of the most unique ideas was conceived by SDS Admin Red originally for the save Kim Possible Movement. The "email petition" was a mix of a online petition and a letter campaign to create a new method of petitioning. Unfortunately, while this method was unique, it was also very labor intensive and difficult to keep up to date - especially when there where multiple shows!

That's why we developed a new system. This new petition is based upon a "normal" online petition, but we've taken several steps to make it more credible than most. First of all, our system is custom made just for Save Disney Shows and there are no automated signing programs. Our system also requires users to confirm their email address before being counted. And finally, we encourage users to associate their signature with a user account on our forum, DisneysWITCH.org. We also provide a website field which can be used to link to your blog, facebook, myspace, bebo, whatever. By showing each user's more than just a random name, we show that our list has significance!

Of course, we want to separate what Disney gets from what is publicly viewable. In this way, the publicly viewable page is like a traditional fanlisting. A way for fans to connect with other fans, while also demonstrating the strength of our movement. The page sent to Disney will contain your full name and email address in addition to the other information on the input form. But the fanlisting will NOT show your last name, and you can opt out of displaying your email publicly. We also offer you the ability to join or opt out of our email contact list, although we strongly recommend joining it so we can keep you informed. At no time will we ever sell or disclose your personal information to anyone other than the Walt Disney Company and it's subsidiaries.

Please encourage any fans, friends, and family to also consider signing our petition. But please, do not attempt sign it multiple times or you will not be counted at all.

Excerpt of Disney Press Release. See full version here: http://savedisneyshows.org/news/index.php?article=207

The Walt Disney Studios unveiled a diverse and ambitious slate of 10 new animated feature films from Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios to be released through the year 2012 at a New York press conference held today by Dick Cook, chairman of The Walt Disney Studios, and John Lasseter, chief creative officer for Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios.

The line-up includes new films from Disney and Pixar's accomplished team of filmmakers, and features vocal performances by such top celebrity talents as John Travolta and Miley Cyrus ("Bolt"), Reese Witherspoon and Billy Connolly and Emma Thompson ("The Bear and the Bow"), Anika Noni Rose and John Goodman ("The Princess and the Frog"), as well as return engagements by Tom Hanks, Tim Allen and the rest of the "Toy Story" vocal ensemble ("Toy Story 3"). The roster of new animated features includes six new films from Pixar Animation Studios, four from Walt Disney Animation Studios, and the first four in a series of direct-to-DVD films featuring Disney Fairies from DisneyToon Studios. Starting later this year with the release of Disney's "Bolt," all Disney and Pixar animated features will be presented in state-of-the-art Disney Digital 3-D™. Additionally, newly converted 3-D versions of the beloved classics, "Toy Story" and "Toy Story 2," are set to debut in 2009 and 2010 respectively.

Among the upcoming animated films on the 2008 release schedule are "WALL•E" (Pixar) from Academy Award®-winning director/writer Andrew Stanton ("Finding Nemo") opening nationwide June 27th; "Bolt" (Disney) from the talented new directing team of Chris Williams and Byron Howard, due in theatres on November 26th; and the Disney DVD and Blu-ray release of "Tinker Bell," the first in a new franchise of original entertainment set in the world of Fairies, on October 28th. The Studio's 2009 animated slate includes the summer release of Pixar's first 3-D feature, "Up," from director Pete Docter ("Monsters, Inc.") and co-director Bob Peterson, the Christmas Day release of Disney's original animated fairy tale "The Princess and the Frog" from acclaimed veteran Disney directors John Musker and Ron Clements ("The Little Mermaid," "Aladdin," "Hercules,") and the Disney DVD and Blu-ray release of "Tinker Bell North of Never Land" (working title). 2010 brings the highly anticipated return of Buzz and Woody in the Disney Digital™ 3D summer release of Pixar's "Toy Story 3" directed by Lee Unkrich ("Finding Nemo," "Monsters, Inc."); followed by the Christmas arrival of Disney's version of the classic fairy tale, "Rapunzel," featuring the directing debuts of animation legend Glen Keane and directing partner Dean Wellins, and the Disney DVD and Blu-ray release of "Tinker Bell A Midsummer Storm" (working title).

In the summer of 2011, Pixar's "newt" marks the directing debut of multiple Oscar® winning sound designer Gary Rydstrom. Christmas 2011 brings Pixar's first fairy tale, "The Bear and the Bow," from acclaimed filmmaker/writer Brenda Chapman ("The Prince of Egypt"). The Disney DVD and Blu-ray release of "Tinker Bell A Winter Story" (working title) also debuts in 2011. The year 2012 will mark the return of Lightning McQueen, Mater the tow truck, and an international cast of favorite and new car characters in Pixar's "Cars 2," directed by Brad Lewis (producer of "Ratatouille"). Scheduled for Christmas 2012 from Walt Disney Animation Studios is "King of the Elves," an adaptation of a Philip K. Dick short story, directed by Aaron Blaise and Robert Walker ("Brother Bear").

Commenting on the announcement, Cook said, "We couldn't be more proud and excited about our upcoming line-up of feature projects. With so many great films literally on the drawing boards and computer screens, we felt that now was the perfect time to give moviegoers all over the world an update on the state of our art. In a year when our Studio is marking the 80th anniversary of Mickey Mouse, the character that started it all for us, it seems especially timely to share our plans for the future of animation. With John Lasseter and Ed Catmull guiding our creative efforts both at Emeryville and in Burbank, this is as exciting a time as any in our history."

Lasseter added, "This is an amazing time for animation at Disney and Pixar, and it's a thrill to be working on such a diverse and original group of films with such an all-star team of filmmakers. The thing I love best about my job is that I get to work at both Disney and Pixar with filmmakers who are passionate about their projects and who are the absolute best in the business. We're excited to be pushing the boundaries of 3-D and computer technology to tell our stories in the best possible way. At the same time, we're drawing on our past to emphasize memorable characters, original edge-of-your-seat stories, and believable worlds. Walt Disney and his creative team taught us how to blend comedy, powerful emotion, and action-filled excitement in our films, and this group of incredible filmmakers is bringing their own originality and sensibilities to the process."

It's been an exciting week at the SDS Forum.

The infamous former-admin Zei has returned to the forum, and the effect has been a wave of activity by both newer members and forum veterans. Even Webmaster Wayne saw it fit to drop in on Wednesday!

If you're a registered member who hasn't been to the forum in a while, or if you're someone that thought about joining but didn't, now is certainly a good time to visit!

From: SDS Newsletter <lists@...>

There a Save Jake "Mini-Day" coming up on 2/7/08 (Rat Day).

What's a "Mini-Day" you ask? Red explains it like this:
MINI-DAYS can come up on short notice. It's close to an official day, Just do as much as you can with the time you have. And that type of stuff.

That type of stuff, indeed. There will be no mailed version of the email or paper petition for this event, so it's more important than ever that as many people as possible call in on the 7th. Once again, the toll free number is (800) 874-1687. You may also want to consider making and mailing postcards! More information on that can be found at http://savedisneyshows.org/flyers/index.php

Just click here to see it, or you can get to it by clicking the "Screencaps" button on the SDS main page. The Save Jake Long Movement Over the past few weeks there has been a lot of turbulence in the ADJL community, especially as it relates to the efforts of Kim Possible fans. At SDS, we believe it's time to get back to the basics and let the other issues work themselves out. With that in mind, we have a Save Jake event scheduled for this weekend, and we really, really, need everyone to participate. There’s not a lot of time left, so we need every one who can to send their paper letters as soon as possible. If you don't know what to say, you can print one of our flyers sign your name to it and mail it to Disney. The fact that you send something, anything, is much better than having sent nothing at all.

Article text follows: NEW YORK (AP) — It was ever so brief, but the use of a body double by Miley Cyrus on her best-selling “Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus ‘Best of Both Worlds’ ” tour is creating plenty of buzz. A video posted on YouTube shows the 15-year-old entertainer as “Hannah” dancing onstage with a group of dancers and the Jonas Brothers, also on the tour. During the song, someone ushers her offstage via a trap door. Immediately, another girl dressed like the character “Hannah” in the same pink trench coat with blonde hair covering her faces dances around, runs up the stage set, and then quickly leaves. While the double is holding a microphone for her less than a minute, the girl motions like she is singing. However, a rep for Miley said the switch was only for costume purposes. “To help speed the transition from Hannah to Miley, there is a production element during the performance of ‘We Got the Party’ incorporating a body double for Miley,” according to statement Friday from the public relations firm PMK. “After Hannah has completed the featured verse on the duet with the Jonas Brothers, a body double appears approximately one to two minutes prior to the end of the song in order to allow Miley to remove the Hannah wig and costume and transform into Miley for her solo set. Other than during this very brief transitional moment in the show, Miley performs live during the entirety of both the Hannah and Miley segments of the concert.” Miley’s “Hannah Montana” tour is one of the nation’s hottest tours, selling out within minutes when tickets went on sale last fall. Some people have been reselling tickets for thousands of dollars. Miley has released two albums under the “Hannah Montana” brand, both of which have sold more than two million copies. The “Hannah Montana” is an offshoot of the Walt Disney Co. TV show. Email and Paper Petitions Just a reminder, if you haven't already, please sign the Save KP, Save Jake, and Save Phil email petitions. And after you've done that, please get started on the paper petitions. The usage of the paper petitions has dropped of very drastically over the past few months. This concludes this edition of the SDS newsletter(s). Thanks for reading from all of us at Save Disney Shows.
