Zenon, Girl of the 21st Century

General Entertainment, Movies by

In Halloween-time tradition, the DVR has been recording seasonal programming like the amazing Halloweentown films (Halloweentown, Halloweentown 2: The Awakening, Halloweentown III: How Marney Got Her Groove Back and the newest, Tyler Perry’s Revenge of the Cromwells.) The Disney Channel really knows how to make cinematic gold time and again.

This got me thinking about my all-time favorite Disney Channel disaster, Zenon, Girl of the 21st Century. Enjoy the first 10 minutes!

The tale of a learning-challenged, neon PVC bedecked space-troll, Zenon follows our eponymous heroine from her rotating research station that orbits somewhere between Earth, the moon and Claire’s discount bin. The visionary futurism (everyone drives Beetles!) and hard-hitting soundtrack (“Zoom, Zoom, Zoom,” anyone?) combine with a plot that may or may not have showed up during filming to create an instant classic.

What’s your favorite Disney Channel film mockery?

    I’ve seen both of the Zenon movies, but I legitimately loved the first Halloweentown when I was younger. It had a witch, how could it not be amazing?

    It had like 20 god damned witches! Amazing x 20.

    The Zequal was nowhere near as artistically astounding as the original Zenon. Which means that I did, indeed, watch it.

    *shame*
