I was just wondering if anybody knew why disneychannel.com doesn't list any of the old DCOMs on their website anymore? Is there any chance that any of the old movies will be released on DVD? I miss the old DCOMs! They should release a Zenon trilogy...

when the Zenon movies aired a few months ago at that insane time of like 3 AM, I recorded all three to my dvd recorder's hard drive so I could make my own dvd with the movies (they aired three early mornings in a row). There are a lot of DCOM that aren't on DVD and unless someone takes over soon and releases them, will probably never be on dvd... :(

Interesting how the stupid musical ones get dvd releases but the older ones get SQUAT!
Disney Channel died when they stopped airing movies with Haley mills (Parent Trap and Pollyanna) and fun adventure movies like Swiss Family Robinson. R.I.P. the REAL Disney Channel. Date of Death: When the shows became teenie bopperish.

Yeah, I try and record the old DCOMs every weekend, but it would be so much nicer if they were on DVD! They take up too much space on my DVR! I hate when they show DCOMs that are already on DVD in that 3AM time slot, like in a week they're showing all three Cheetah Girl movies. I was watching some of the older DCOMs the other day (like The Color of Friendship) and I forgot how good they were, considering they were made for tweens/teens. I enjoy them just as much now as I did when I was 10. They actually had stories to them, now all the new DCOMs seem to have similar storylines. Like you said, musicals. Oh well, I guess I can only hope :roll:
