Our Meet Up With Disney’s Descendants 2- Disney Channel *Video at bottomdescendants4Since the very first time my daughter and I first watched Disney’s Descendants together we were both hooked. I thought it was the perfect tween movie for her. As for me, who could resist learning more about the villains sons and daughters. It was something I had to know every detail about. In the original movie, Descendants (2015), we meet the son of King Adam and Queen Belle- Ben! As he gets ready to accept his royal place of taking over the throne he grants the children of the villains a chance to attend Auradon Prep! They make their way over from the Isle of the Lost and try to tame their  villain like ways. You will have to watch the original Descendants to see what happens with the Disney villains’ kids meet up with the Disney heroes’ kids. On that note I will not give any spoilers just in case you are binge watching both Descendants and Descendants 2.

descendantshugSometimes blogging does have its perks. Disney Channel was kind enough to send our family the screener of Descendants 2 so we could grab a sneak peek of the movie. You are definitely not going to want to miss out on this one. We have big plans for premiere night when we will host a bunch of our own Disney heroes and villains to feast on wicked apple treats and magic potion purple fizzy drinks! I bet you wish you lived closer, don’t you!? Now, as for the movie, if you liked Descendants, you are going to love Descendants 2. There are so many twists and turns that you will be questioning everything that is happening. Our family especially LOVED the ending! I wish I could talk about it now, but there will be no spoilers here. Descendants 2 starts off with the musical number, “Ways To Be Wicked”, which by now I am sure you know every single word to!descendantsThis time the kids are left to own devices, without any parental supervision. Maleficent’s daughter-Mal played by Dove Cameron is completely  stressed out trying to get prepared for the upcoming  Royal Cotillion where she will be joined by Beast and Belle’s son, King Ben (Mitchell Hope). Mal finds the pressure overwhelming and immediately heads back to the the Isle of the Lost. Of course she does not make the journey alone and is soon joined by Evie (Sofia Carson), daughter of the Evil Queen, Carlos (Cameron Boyce), son of Cruella De and Jay (Booboo Stewart) son of Jafar. Without much time passing they come across Uma (China Anne Mc Clain) who just happens to be Ursula’s daughter. If you have been following the previews and snippets you most likely also already know the song, “What’s my name?”. If you don’t, you will know it by the end of the movie. The songs throughout the movie are ones that just get stuck in your head and you cannot help but sing. Mal consistently fights with herself throughout the movie wondering who she really is and where she really belongs.

Squeeeeee!! Our family had the immense pleasure of meeting the cast of Descendants 2 at the Disney Store Times Square recently during a private event! Yes, it takes a lot for me to get excited by meeting a celebrity. I have met my share throughout the years, but there was something very magical about meeting the cast of Descendants 2. They were adorable, sweet and completely charming! We also had the chance to chat with Kenny Ortega about Descendants and Descendants 2. Emm was more than happy to share her thoughts on the movie, the music and the dance moves! They both agreed that one of their favorite songs was “Chillin’ Like a Villain”.
