These movies\u00a0have grown on me. I am looking forward to seeing this one and I am a little sad it will be the last one.<\/p>\n<p>The Disney Channel will have three new original movies. The first one will be <em>Bad Hair Day<\/em> on February 13<sup>th<\/sup>. With Leigh-Allyn Baker and Laura Marano, it looks like it will be hilarious. Due this summer, Disney Channel will have <em>Descendants<\/em>. This will be a movie about the children of some of our favorite classic Disney heroes and villains. Kristin Chenoweth as Maleficent should be fun.<\/p>\n<p>In July\u00a0<em>Teen Beach Movie 2<\/em> will be a continuation with the same characters we saw in Wet Side Story being brought over to the real world.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_36815\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36815\" style=\"width: 274px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Strange-Magic.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-36815\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Strange-Magic-274x400.jpg\" alt=\"Photo by RikkiN\" width=\"274\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Strange-Magic-274x400.jpg 274w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Strange-Magic.jpg 411w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 274px) 100vw, 274px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-36815\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by RikkiN<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>From Lucasfilm, on the big screen now is\u00a0<em>Strange Magic,\u00a0<\/em>released January\u00a023<sup>rd<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_36816\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36816\" style=\"width: 261px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/McFarland-USA.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-36816\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/McFarland-USA-261x400.jpg\" alt=\"Photo by RikkiN\" width=\"261\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/McFarland-USA-261x400.jpg 261w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/McFarland-USA.jpg 391w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 261px) 100vw, 261px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-36816\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by RikkiN<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>February 20<sup>th<\/sup> will bring Disney\u2019s latest sports film. <em>McFarland, USA<\/em> is inspired by the 1987 true story about High School coach Jim White.
