This movie had everything I was obsessed with as a kid 1) magical girls who were also long lost princesses 2) celestial/sun and moon motifs 3) magical necklaces that I desperately wanted
Samesies. As a kiddo I was very spiritually inclined, seeing spirits, being outside and making “potions” with the herbs I collects… all that jazz. Not surprising I ended up being a witch as an adult 😂 Halloweentown and Twitches really shaped my life lol
I feel like Twitches, along with Rochelle from the Craft, really put an emphasis on Black Women could be magical, and not just by using Voodoo, in the late 90's/ early 2000's. It's iconic, it had the sun and moon necklace set that nearly every sister/ best friend duo wanted and it's a classic. What more could you want?
@@serenitymoon825Yesss. Death in Sandman was so vital to get right, and they did. There’s such a problem with the idea that black people cant be alt, they even scrubbed that out in Locke and Key. But it’s rep we sorely need.
I was sad after they stopped making the book series into movies, there are actually 12 books in the series not just a trilogy. I have the entire book collection and have read the whole series many times. I love the two films they did make even if they didn’t fully match up to the books. I also love Tia & Tamara as actresses.
Twitches was iconic. It was older girls 21 years old which made their dreams more concievable. One of them wanted to go to art school and the drawings on the walls are geniunely of someone who wants to be an aritist Relateable struggles as you get older deciding what you want to do and how you are going to do it is really hard Job hunting is hell Realistic rich/poor divide The list goes on... Diversity Magic and celestial motifs
i loved them being 21. As a kid I thought it was a bit strange but also nice because it was one of the only films where the main characters werent teenagers
15:55 love how Jackson from Hannah Montanna was literally a 30 year old playing a high school student, but they couldn't recast the original actress for Marnie to play a college student???
Please stop…..Return To Halloweentown came out years ago, and people like you are still butthurt over Sara Paxton playing Marnie? Get over it. Kimberly J Brown was literally filming another movie at the same time that R.T.H.T was being filmed, there wouldn’t have been enough time for her to reprise her role as Marnie so the casting directors had no either choice but to recast her part. Sara Paxton herself never demanded to play Marnie, all she did was audition for it and the fact that to this day she still receives hate and even death threats for it…..get a life, get a grip, and leave her alone. If you wanna get mad at someone, get mad at the casting directors but don’t hate on, get mad, and take your anger out on Sara because that wasn’t her fault. If Kimberly didn’t have an issue with Sara playing Marnie and doesn’t hold hate and grudge over her for it…..then none of you should either.
Fun Fact: Twitches Too was my family's introduction to online streaming. Back in the day, we had only had tv and dvds, Disney was replaying Twitches alot but not Twitches Too and my sis and I really wanted to watch it. So in 2012, we got the brilliant idea to find it online (it was a pirate site unbeknownst to us) and the rest was history.
My pitch for a sequel: The portal between our realm and Coventry is closed while Cameron is in Coventry and Alex is in our realm, seemingly keeping the realms and the sisters separated forever. Over time, Cameron rules alone as Queen but still tries everything to re-open the portal, but Alex over time gives up as she has no magic to help her (I’d think Cameron could still have her own magic, but is weak, and Alex loses it almost completely, having been away from Coventry for too long. OR both sisters eventually lose their magic over time). Years pass and Alex is a successful author having written about her adventures (plus other material) and a mother of two daughters (played by Chloe and Halle) who struggle to get along (dunno if due to the death of their dad or if the dad is alive, but a bit cliche if the dad weren’t alive). One of the sisters can be a goth character, like described in the book, and maybe has a fascination with the occult, while the other has more in common with Cameron, preppy and popular. Eventually, when Alex discovers that the girls have their own magic and the portal is finally open, the daughters learn that the stories that their mom had been writing about were true. The only reason Alex didn’t mention it all being real was because she had lost her own magic and had no way of proving the events were real. With another threat occurring, the three of them head to Coventry to discover their past, Alex reuniting with her sister, and the two daughters re-discovering their own powers and bonding more as sisters. There is a lot of potential with this scenario, like Cameron could have learned to be a more responsible person as Queen Apolla, but also misses her life in our world. Also there’s a mystery to unfold as to why the portals were closed in the first place, and where the threat lies.
This is great!! If I may add: I think it could be cool to still have the Evil Aunty Minerva tempting one of the sisters to the dark side plotline. Maybe as subtle forboding in the background for a while. Maybe one of Alex's daughters has been having psychic dreams about it. Anyway, Alex’s daughters become convinced that their mom is the one being corrupted. Only for the reveal to be that it's actually Queen Cameron, who was secretly training with Aunty Minerva in an attempt to get her magic back (not realizing that Minerva was stealing her magic, and bewitching her all the time). But also, maybe Minerva isn't actually evil. Maybe she really just wants the best for Coventry, but has been villainized for it bevause she's going against her "perfect" sister, leading to a bonding moment between her ans Alex's goth daughter. So, three-generational twins, healing trauma, and sisterly bonding all around.
@@melodramaticdragon5826i love that!! there could also be a plot line that apolla soon learned to resent artemis because she feels like she gave up on coventry instead of fighting for it for as long as she has
Rewatching it every Halloween is a tradition, there’s high chances my obsession with the sun/moon dynamic comes from it 😭 I think a 3rd movie with the Mowry current age is still possible. They’re queens and one of them can still be tempted by the darker side.
if there was a third Twitches movie I'd love for them to explore the land Coventry more. what it looks like outside the castle walls, the culture, ect. I know Tia and Tamera's brother was supposed to be the third movie also as Miranda's twin sister evil son. let's have the mom's twin be right about one being evil. Cam and Alex being at odds for years causes Cam to become the new darkness. A battle between generations The mom twins, Alex and Cam, Halle and Chloe. exploring how darkness is influenced on the bloodline of the family and how it affected Miranda's Husband and his brother and where it came from probably an ancestor doing dark magic or being cured.
@@monochromatic_melodramaticCan’t really blame Disney too much. I feel like as far as magical properties go, Wizards of Waverly Place was the better of the two and was more creative with the world building and premise and with Hannah Montana and High school Musical I’m sure Disney knew how much merchandise and views they would sell/get for those more than Twitches. Twitches 3 sounds like it could’ve been great though.
I don’t know if Halle Bayley’s agent would think it would be good career choice for her however. Twitches was very low budged, and I can’t see Disney+ movie sequel being very high budged one.
@@sarasamaletdin4574I can actually see it since Halle was already their mermaid. I mean… she’s rumored to be pregnant rn and Disney don’t be liking that kinda thing for their young stars, but the two are actually very good actresses and I can see it
@@sarasamaletdin4574 Disney has been hemorrhaging money, a low budget straight to Disney plus is just what they need. Plus doing a straight to streaming isn’t looked down upon like it used to be
@@KDBetter You guys are confusing Disney Channel for Walt Disney Studios. Halle is a grown woman and Disney doesn’t care whether she’s pregnant or not. She’s not a child actor.
Twitches looks like a less edgy Charmed for the Tween demographic! This isn't a bad thing! I love themes of family, magic, and Sisterhood, all themes Charmed would cover, albeit for the teen/young adult audience. Charmed even had the goody two shoes/slacker dynamic with a splash of the mediator role! I still love Charmed, flaws, and all!
It’s wild that people can’t tell them apart. When Tia filled in for Tamera on this movie it really messed me up in the story…because they look different to me.
Most twins have slight differences, even identical twins. Tia definitely has a more defined jawline, and Tamara has a mole by her nose. The biggest differences are that Tia is a bit thinner and they hold their face in a different way, because they have different personalities. But if you're not really paying attention, you can easily mix them up.
From an Astrology perspective, as both being Ophiuchus risings(sketchy accuracy of time but also based off of my own observations), Tia’s signature trait are her hooded eyes.(A Plutonic/Scorpio/Ophiuchus physical trait). While Tamara’s, like others have mentioned, is her signature mole(possibly from her rising sign’s ruling planet of Pluto being in Libra?) creating a defining(Pluto) beauty(Libra) physical trait.
See this had all of my favorite things. 1)magical castles 2)princesses really cool? 3)Princess, especially in the second movie and 4) a black girl. Just being fun and super-rich. Like. Give Cameron Barnes her flowers right now. I love her.
I only have one gripe with the movie. If Cameron Barnes's family can afford a Porsche for her. I think she can afford to wear juicy couture and carry a coach bag
Omg I loved this movie but never realized it was so successful. As a black girl I never saw us as magical main characters. It was always the "best friend". I would LOVE to like LOVE to see Chloe x Halle play sister witches 😢.
I'm so glad you also talked about the books! They were a HOT commodity during Scholastic Book Fairs when I was in elementary school and despite the changes, I also LOVED the DCOM version!!
the night this movie came out I was SEATED its still a core memory for me, the whole vibe of this movie and my favorite twins all grown up like it was everything to me
I grew up watching the Olsen twins, Sprouse twins and the Mowry twins. Loved them all. 💕✨❤️🔥 I've always loved the twin who was the fashionista of the two.
Can't believe people actually remember 'Twitches' ! Like this, Hocus Pocus, and Halloweentown set the tone for my love of whimsical culture/core ! I was obssessed with the 'twin trope', as a twin myself 😭 that and the fact that they're were poc make me soooo happy ! Clearly, all the old halloween Disney movies are the blueprint, they are just classics
I loooved the Twitches book series growing up, and when it became a movie, I legit screamed from happiness. Literally one of my moments in Disney history.
I absolutely loved this duo movies especially with how magic and their gifts worked. I feel very connected to Cameron's character as an artist and more associated with the sun. I did read the books in middle school, but sadly can't recall much of them. If they did a sequel, I would like to see the Haley twins play Alex and Cameron's daughters who aren't born on the same day, but with entirely different gifts but learning to balance their Coventree and Earthly roles. But not like Halloweentown 2, but some other kinda threat like having to return the magic to the people of Coventree.
As a black girl who grew up in the early 2000s and had a sister AND a fascination with magic, these movies were my JAM. I used to have nightmares about The Darkness tho 👀
i loved this movie it always stuck with me but was anyone else absolutely terrified while watching it?? the dark shadow was so scary to me at the time😭
these movies were so important to me and all my cousins! it was so rare to see a supernatural series including not one, but TWO black girls as main characters. i can quote EVERY lime 😭
I loved these movies growing up !! Tia and Tamera staring in twitches were actually the first Halloween movie I loved watching on repeat 🔁. I would love for the franchise to come back and give me all the nostalgia again ‼️💙🧡
Thank you for pointing out the very glaring small age difference between the Twitches and their mom. That’s something I was thinking about the other day (for some unknown reason 😂).
I assume we the audience are supposed to accept it's her powerful magic keeping her relatively young. It's a common magical trope so something a potential sequel could easily address. At 42 the twins don't look THAT radically different, so even if it's set a full 20+ years later, their appearances would be relatively in line with how the queen looks here.
GORL! As a twin, me and my sister were all over Tia and Tamera. Sister, Sister and Twitches was one of the faves during Halloween. We're still trying to track down those amulets 🤣🤣
I always loved the films as a kid but as an adult I wish we’d gotten POC Goth rep too. Disney is always painfully mainstream but it would have been nice to go for a subtle 90s ethereal goth aesthetic and add homages to the very dreamy very beautiful music that Whimsigoth's goth side has been favouring stylistically and musically.
i remember being SO excited for the twitches two peremier. they teased it for at least a month before then almost every other commercial break. i wish they aired the origional twitches movie more, it seemed like after the second one came out they only really aired the sequel
I freaking LOVE “Twitches”! I not only watch it every Halloween, but pull it out whenever I’m in a magical, witchy, fun mood! Sure it’s corny, but I think it’s sweet how much the Mowry sisters love the series too!
This movie was my absolute favorite going up! Especially since I’m a black girl with the name Cameryn Barnes myself😂. I was fully convinced I had magical powers and a long list twin sister. Sadly on my 21st birthday I did not find my long list twin sister, but a hangover instead 😪
I've been rereading the Daughters of The Moon, and its spin-off series, Sons of The Dark, this year. I remember reading the Twitches books in middle school. I was a fan of the movies too.
My mum still has the VHS’s that we recorded Twitches & Twitches Too on when they premiered on Disney channel 😂 it’s so funny to see all the commercials
I loved the HELL out of the T*Witches books; they were written with a Diablo Cody style script for tweens and reeked of pure pre-9/11 nostalgia. It was the coolest. I’m so mad the kindle version “updated” the first book to remove the 2000s references. I was too sullen and snobbish to like the movie when it first came out; it’s a bit more cutsey and bright compared to the book which has a more serious tone. Especially with the Alex changes! I agree they should’ve stuck to the book style (I wanted hair color changing, cynical goth Tamara 😭). Still, I can tell how happy and how much fun the cast was having and appreciate it now.
I remember when I was in private school, the two girls had the same necklace from toy vending machines and acted like the twins from The Twitches that the first-grade class and I watched.
This movie was my absolute favourite Disney channel movie growing up. It's probably what set me on the path of being obsessed with all things fantasty. What a nostalgic trip this video was! I never knew about the book series but you bet I'm gonna do my best to get my hands on it!
I remember reading the first book as a young teen. What hooked me was it looked right up my Buffy & Charmed loving ally while being priced at $1.99. The other books had traditional pricing, but they really made the first book accessible to kids like me who had to fund their book buying hobby with babysitting jobs.
I FREAKING KNEW IT!!!!! I knew they were going to make a third one, I remember seeing the trailer on Disney Channel when I was younger. I thought I imagined it!
The Twitches movie has slowly grown on me, I was so mad at it at first because of how much it differed from the book series, but now I just view it as separate entities and I've grown to like it lol But I will never forgive them for recasting Marnie in Halloweentown lol
The Twitches movie was one of many reasons why I always try to find a crescent moon necklace wherever I shop. I always felt a connection to witches and their folklore, and growing up seeing black women represented in such amazing and magical ways, in all forms of the craft, I just loved it growing up. Twitches was Black Girl Magic before it was even coined.
My personal idea for the third film would be that Chloe and hallie are Miranda’s evil twin sister’s daughters helping their mother seek revenge on Miranda and both Cameron and Alex fighting them back we get see how life has changed for Alex and Cameron now that they are full grown adults in addition seeing the struggles and challenges that are also faced from Chloe and hallie characters as gen z teens/young adults. Disney+ should get this idea for the third film asap
Instead of a third movie they should do a reboot series. I feel the original two movies didn’t explore enough and that could be fixed in a reboot. Have the girls past make a bigger impact and flesh out the lore more.
i LIVED for disney’s halloween movies, it was sooo exciting. Twitches and Halloweentown were def my favorites and then all the Halloween specials of the shows just made my whole childhood 😭😭😭😭
I loved the twitches movies so much as a kid. My childhood best friend at the time was an artist and i was a writer so we would give each other sun and moon things and call each other Cammie and Alex. It was, and still is, one of my favorite dcom movies just for the memories alone.
I was one of many to grow up through the 2000’s kid so I grew up with Disney channel before it changed to what it was today. I adored the Disney movies cause back then it was just fun and there was just so many stories Twitches were one of my favorite movies aside from Halloween town I’m really hopping that one day we can try getting retro shows again even with our time becoming more advanced in graphics and such
twitches 3 could have been about cam and alex’s kids getting kidnapped by another evil person, and they have to reunite to get them back or something idk
twitches is seriously one of my favorite movies of all time. i remember watching it the night it premiered and have rewatched it every single halloween season since
15:30 I can actual see Camryn being the twin going against the family, depending on if you mean her birth parents or adoptive parents. Mostly because it’d be a great twist and she was definitely annoyed with everyone constantly praising Alex at the beginning of Twitches Too.
NO WAY YOU POSTED THIS I WAS JUST GOING TO WATCH THIS LAST WEEKEND but I couldn’t, I’ll definitely have to watch it again tonight, love you moderngurlz💜💜✨
I find it funny that it was Darkness that killed his father, because darkness is also affiliated with Kingdom Hearts and they are the force parallel to light. That makes me wonder if we are gonna have a Twitches world?
YES YES I REMEMBER THE T.WITCHES BOOK!!! i found it at a thrift bookshop and fell in love with the story. It was so y2k and wholesome at the same time. But i was a poor kid and didn't have cable, so i was shocked abt finding out T.Witches movie and the seeing it barely looked like the book I read
This has become a yearly tradition for my sister and I to watch, even now that were 19 and 23 respectfully we still come over to one another's house to watch this movie and the sequel together, because that was like our childhood, every year without fail we'd bust it out and coraline too
I love the Olsen twins tie ins and the reference to the daughters of the moon book series! I just found that series at half price books and picked it up on a whim I had no idea it was so popular
This movie had everything I was obsessed with as a kid
1) magical girls who were also long lost princesses
2) celestial/sun and moon motifs
3) magical necklaces that I desperately wanted
oh my god, same. I actually grew up with the same stuff, especially with wanting magical jewelry so I can transform, lol
It’s on freeform but I don’t know why I don’t like rewatching it . Maybe I watch it so many times I got bored
E-xac-tly
WE ARE THE SAME PERSON
Yes all of this!!!
the twitches and halloweentown series' had the biggest grip on me i was so excited every single year
Real!!! They single handedly put me in the Halloween spirit every single year without fail. Inspiring. Legends.
I think I like Halloweentown better
Same, along with the original Worst Witch series, and Occasionally Wizards of waverly place. Probably all the witch shows
@@missknight9 I don’t like the worst witch . I prefer wizards Of waverly place

Yes
I could have lived the rest of my life never knowing I was ROBBED of a third Twitches movie
I found out about the 3rd potential film on Twitter and I was so gutted. Needed it so bad
Honestly. 😢 This is breaking my childhood heart.
It can still happen! Both of the Mowry sisters are on board, we just need the yes from Disney (they’re doing Hocus Pocus 3, why not Twitches 3
I was sad after they stopped making the book series into movies, there are actually 12 books in the series not just a trilogy.

Me too I had no idea it was a book series 😲
Twitches was iconic. It was older girls 21 years old which made their dreams more concievable. One of them wanted to go to art school and the drawings on the walls are geniunely of someone who wants to be an aritist
Relateable struggles as you get older deciding what you want to do and how you are going to do it is really hard
Job hunting is hell
Realistic rich/poor divide
The list goes on...
Diversity
Magic and celestial motifs

Chloe and Halle as sister witches would be AMAZING
I used to be OBSESSED with these movies when I was a child
this and Wendy Wu are such underrated films
I'm so glad you also talked about the books! They were a HOT commodity during Scholastic Book Fairs when I was in elementary school and despite the changes, I also LOVED the DCOM version!!
omg i'm a BIG fan 😱🩷
DO I REMEMBER????
Girl RUSH by Aly and AJ has been on repeat all week! I've been imagining myself as them for years now 🤣 ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Just blasted Potential Breakup Song the other day otw to work 🤣🤣🤣 classics
That song IS SO GOOD OMG
the night this movie came out I was SEATED its still a core memory for me, the whole vibe of this movie and my favorite twins all grown up like it was everything to me
I grew up watching the Olsen twins, Sprouse twins and the Mowry twins. Loved them all. 💕✨❤️🔥
I've always loved the twin who was the fashionista of the two.
27 was too old for them to play high schoolers but Rachel True was 30 playing Rochelle in The Craft.
Can't believe people actually remember 'Twitches' ! Like this, Hocus Pocus, and Halloweentown set the tone for my love of whimsical culture/core ! I was obssessed with the 'twin trope', as a twin myself 😭 that and the fact that they're were poc make me soooo happy !
Clearly, all the old halloween Disney movies are the blueprint, they are just classics
I will never forgive Disney for recasting Marnie 😭
I loooved the Twitches book series growing up, and when it became a movie, I legit screamed from happiness. Literally one of my moments in Disney history.
I absolutely loved this duo movies especially with how magic and their gifts worked. I feel very connected to Cameron's character as an artist and more associated with the sun. I did read the books in middle school, but sadly can't recall much of them. If they did a sequel, I would like to see the Haley twins play Alex and Cameron's daughters who aren't born on the same day, but with entirely different gifts but learning to balance their Coventree and Earthly roles. But not like Halloweentown 2, but some other kinda threat like having to return the magic to the people of Coventree.
Isn't she called Camryn thoooo, I'm so confused
Please make more content like this diving into the Disney Channel Original Movies! So excited to watch!
As a black girl who grew up in the early 2000s and had a sister AND a fascination with magic, these movies were my JAM. I used to have nightmares about The Darkness tho 👀
i loved this movie it always stuck with me but was anyone else absolutely terrified while watching it?? the dark shadow was so scary to me at the time😭
these movies were so important to me and all my cousins! it was so rare to see a supernatural series including not one, but TWO black girls as main characters. i can quote EVERY lime 😭
I lived for Twitches and Twitches Too! I miss them so much but I can't believe we never got our third
I loved these movies growing up !! Tia and Tamera staring in twitches were actually the first Halloween movie I loved watching on repeat 🔁. I would love for the franchise to come back and give me all the nostalgia again ‼️💙🧡
Wish they made merch of the necklaces! Always wanted one 🌙☀️
Wow I had no idea they were 27 during filming!!! I also didn’t realize their characters were adults either, haha
Thank you for pointing out the very glaring small age difference between the Twitches and their mom. That’s something I was thinking about the other day (for some unknown reason 😂).
I assume we the audience are supposed to accept it's her powerful magic keeping her relatively young. It's a common magical trope so something a potential sequel could easily address. At 42 the twins don't look THAT radically different, so even if it's set a full 20+ years later, their appearances would be relatively in line with how the queen looks here.
GORL! As a twin, me and my sister were all over Tia and Tamera. Sister, Sister and Twitches was one of the faves during Halloween. We're still trying to track down those amulets 🤣🤣
i love the idea of the third movie, we were robbed 😭😭😭😭
I always loved the films as a kid but as an adult I wish we’d gotten POC Goth rep too. Disney is always painfully mainstream but it would have been nice to go for a subtle 90s ethereal goth aesthetic and add homages to the very dreamy very beautiful music that Whimsigoth's goth side has been favouring stylistically and musically.
27 being too old to play teens whilst i remember seeing younger actors portray 15 year olds with smile lines is crazy!
i remember being SO excited for the twitches two peremier. they teased it for at least a month before then almost every other commercial break. i wish they aired the origional twitches movie more, it seemed like after the second one came out they only really aired the sequel
I freaking LOVE “Twitches”! I not only watch it every Halloween, but pull it out whenever I’m in a magical, witchy, fun mood! Sure it’s corny, but I think it’s sweet how much the Mowry sisters love the series too!
SO ON BOARD WITH A REMAKE !!!!! COME ON DISNEY!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
these movies MAKE Halloween for me, Halloweentown of course comes close but nothing tops Twitches
… still thinking about Coventry
This movie was my absolute favorite going up! Especially since I’m a black girl with the name Cameryn Barnes myself😂. I was fully convinced I had magical powers and a long list twin sister. Sadly on my 21st birthday I did not find my long list twin sister, but a hangover instead 😪
Hahaha!
I've been rereading the Daughters of The Moon, and its spin-off series, Sons of The Dark, this year. I remember reading the Twitches books in middle school. I was a fan of the movies too.
My mum still has the VHS’s that we recorded Twitches & Twitches Too on when they premiered on Disney channel 😂 it’s so funny to see all the commercials
I loved the HELL out of the T*Witches books; they were written with a Diablo Cody style script for tweens and reeked of pure pre-9/11 nostalgia. It was the coolest. I’m so mad the kindle version “updated” the first book to remove the 2000s references.
I was too sullen and snobbish to like the movie when it first came out; it’s a bit more cutsey and bright compared to the book which has a more serious tone. Especially with the Alex changes! I agree they should’ve stuck to the book style (I wanted hair color changing, cynical goth Tamara 😭). Still, I can tell how happy and how much fun the cast was having and appreciate it now.
I remember when I was in private school, the two girls had the same necklace from toy vending machines and acted like the twins from The Twitches that the first-grade class and I watched.
2:43 omg…the chokehold that W.I.T.C.H. had on me back in the day 😅 I watched the show every Saturday morning and read the graphic novels
My sister and I loved twitches and even still today! We even got sun & moon necklaces because twitches always brought us together.
This movie was my absolute favourite Disney channel movie growing up. It's probably what set me on the path of being obsessed with all things fantasty. What a nostalgic trip this video was! I never knew about the book series but you bet I'm gonna do my best to get my hands on it!
I remember reading the first book as a young teen. What hooked me was it looked right up my Buffy & Charmed loving ally while being priced at $1.99. The other books had traditional pricing, but they really made the first book accessible to kids like me who had to fund their book buying hobby with babysitting jobs.
This is one of my favorite movies of all time😭💅🏼💕
I FREAKING KNEW IT!!!!! I knew they were going to make a third one, I remember seeing the trailer on Disney Channel when I was younger. I thought I imagined it!
The Twitches movie has slowly grown on me, I was so mad at it at first because of how much it differed from the book series, but now I just view it as separate entities and I've grown to like it lol But I will never forgive them for recasting Marnie in Halloweentown lol
The Twitches movie was one of many reasons why I always try to find a crescent moon necklace wherever I shop. I always felt a connection to witches and their folklore, and growing up seeing black women represented in such amazing and magical ways, in all forms of the craft, I just loved it growing up. Twitches was Black Girl Magic before it was even coined.
i loveddd these movies sm it made me wish I had a magical twin sister, totally wish they continued and made it a trilogy!
My personal idea for the third film would be that Chloe and hallie are Miranda’s evil twin sister’s daughters helping their mother seek revenge on Miranda and both Cameron and Alex fighting them back we get see how life has changed for Alex and Cameron now that they are full grown adults in addition seeing the struggles and challenges that are also faced from Chloe and hallie characters as gen z teens/young adults. Disney+ should get this idea for the third film asap
Instead of a third movie they should do a reboot series. I feel the original two movies didn’t explore enough and that could be fixed in a reboot. Have the girls past make a bigger impact and flesh out the lore more.
Bro this was my favourite movie as a kid but scared me so bad, turning the lights off had me thinking I'd be swallowed up by the darkness 😭😭
I LIVED for this film as a kid, the soundtrack, the styling it could’ve been so much more
Twitches 1’s Illyana is my favorite oml
The way I screamed when I saw this on my recommended! Twitches is one of my all time favorite movies when I was growing up! ❤
i LIVED for disney’s halloween movies, it was sooo exciting. Twitches and Halloweentown were def my favorites and then all the Halloween specials of the shows just made my whole childhood 😭😭😭😭
I'd love Twitches 3, with the twins as moms now.
oh the childhood fantasy of imagining you have a long-lost magical twin so you become obsessed with sun/moon motifs and twins stuff.
I loved the twitches movies so much as a kid. My childhood best friend at the time was an artist and i was a writer so we would give each other sun and moon things and call each other Cammie and Alex. It was, and still is, one of my favorite dcom movies just for the memories alone.
I remember that both Twitches and Twitches 2 played on Disney Channel one Halloween year
As a twin who loves Halloween, I need to watch this movie with my twin sister now. It sounds cool!
I was one of many to grow up through the 2000’s kid so I grew up with Disney channel before it changed to what it was today. I adored the Disney movies cause back then it was just fun and there was just so many stories
Twitches were one of my favorite movies aside from Halloween town
I’m really hopping that one day we can try getting retro shows again even with our time becoming more advanced in graphics and such
Thantos being Howard Hamlin sends me 😂
the sound track for the movies was sooo perfect
Yes, soundtrack slapped! 🔥
This video is how I found out Twitches was originally a book series
OMG A VIDEO ABOUT TWITCHES? Thank you for unlocking my childhood!!!
twitches 3 could have been about cam and alex’s kids getting kidnapped by another evil person, and they have to reunite to get them back or something idk
twitches is seriously one of my favorite movies of all time. i remember watching it the night it premiered and have rewatched it every single halloween season since
15:30 I can actual see Camryn being the twin going against the family, depending on if you mean her birth parents or adoptive parents. Mostly because it’d be a great twist and she was definitely annoyed with everyone constantly praising Alex at the beginning of Twitches Too.
Twitches will forever have a place in my heart, I've never forgot about it since the day I watched it
Glad u mentioned strong medicine. Watched it growing up with my mom. Everyone always forgets it
NO WAY YOU POSTED THIS I WAS JUST GOING TO WATCH THIS LAST WEEKEND but I couldn’t, I’ll definitely have to watch it again tonight, love you moderngurlz💜💜✨
Karsh or Illianas offhand comment about walking through 40 years of wallpaper has lived rent free in my head for 18 years.
Honestly I wouldn’t be mad if they made a third movie today
Twitches is a childhood favorite for sure
Twitches 1&2 are one of my fav disnry classics
I find it funny that it was Darkness that killed his father, because darkness is also affiliated with Kingdom Hearts and they are the force parallel to light. That makes me wonder if we are gonna have a Twitches world?
YES YES I REMEMBER THE T.WITCHES BOOK!!! i found it at a thrift bookshop and fell in love with the story. It was so y2k and wholesome at the same time. But i was a poor kid and didn't have cable, so i was shocked abt finding out T.Witches movie and the seeing it barely looked like the book I read
I absolutely LOVED Twitches growing up, they were some of my favorite Disney movies
This has become a yearly tradition for my sister and I to watch, even now that were 19 and 23 respectfully we still come over to one another's house to watch this movie and the sequel together, because that was like our childhood, every year without fail we'd bust it out and coraline too
Another movie with Chloe and Halle would make my life. Disney I know you’re obsessed with remakes and reboots. MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!
Twitches was something my sister and I loved so much. We see ourselves in them and we still love the sun and moon theme
When I found out Coventry was a real place I was shocked. I genuinely thought it was just a twitches thing.
I love the Olsen twins tie ins and the reference to the daughters of the moon book series! I just found that series at half price books and picked it up on a whim I had no idea it was so popular
I never knew twitches was a book series! Well, now I have to read it!
I feel like Twitches is underrated. It's sooo good
