On June 16th, I watched the premiere of Disney Channel's original movie, Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior. Granted I'm not much of a Disney Channel watcher anymore these days, because I much prefer the old school era when they would actually have worthwhile shows and movies shown. However, after seeing previews for this movie, I was intrigued and soon afterwards, to be impressed with its production. Also, my ultimate purpose for watching it was for Brenda Song, because I just love her.
Instead of giving my overall likes and reactions, I gave a thorough overview of the whole movie, along with analyzing certain parts and its connections.
( Buffy the Vampire Slayer? Pfft, this is Wendy Wu the Reincarnated Chinese Warrior! )
Small trivia: In case anyone doesn't know this little bit of information, Brenda Song has a Tae Kwon Do black belt in real life. I'm wondering if she and Summer Glau can do a faceoff or, perhaps even a better idea, in this article giving a further in-depth look a the production and creation of Wendy Wu, Koichi Sakamoto announces that "Brenda would make an excellent Power Ranger". Now that's something I'd like to see, most definitely.
Also, I'd also like to point out that while Disney Channel has aired PG and PG-13 material on their network before, Wendy Wu is the first Disney Channel Original Movie to actually have a TV-PG rating, in which it was parodied by having a hilarious little warning before the movie started. It mainly was for the fight sequences, but still funny nonetheless.
