New Disney Channel Body Swap Movie! ["The Swap"]
Page 1 2 3 4 5 6
From: guest (the searcher) , 93 months, post #21
in response to the above, a couple of thoughts...
1 they ought to show the movie after a marathon of all the prior disney shows bodyswap episodes, like the Jessie ep mentioned above featuring the star of the show.
2 While most disney shows throw logic to the wind, (as do many other shows on other networks to be fair) the current series Girl meets World has superbly written episodes that both adults and children can enjoy. Although there is no school in the world like their school, and they are usually taught in the father's class every season. But the parents are pretty smart and the characters are all well developed.
Speaking of well developed, and keeping this response on target, the mother played by Danielle Fishel, is someone I would like to bodyswap with for a while....
What do you say Disney? Call me!

In response to post 21, swapping with Danielle Fishel...

Story might be NSFW, images should be okay though -- https://www.fictionmania.tv/stories/readhtmlstory.html?storyID=29994496504295221

Dang it... now I'm off-topic.

I can't imagine this movie exploring any new ground of gender dynamics since It's a Boy/Girl Thing but at least the girl is really cute. When I was in the 8th grade all the boys had to read a Judy Blume books and all the girls had to read (his equivalent?) It would be interesting if this movie broke some new ground but I'm sure it'll be "boys are sloppy but sports take talent / girls have a lot of pressure to be neat and good students"

guest, you should read the book that this movie is based on.

While it does have a bit of that same old story to it, there's more to it and it deals not just with the differences between a boy's and a girl's world, but these two specific characters, their emotions and feelings of their specific stories, and also on just how much our lives are / can be the same. IIRC, it also recounts a bit about the mental / emotional state of being that age and growing into your own person.

Then again, it's a Disney adaptation. I'm not sure that they ever stick with the nuances of the source material.

@post #23 (guest): I don't think in the movie they are in the 8th grade. Peyton List, the lead actress is 18.

"I don't think in the movie they are in the 8th grade..."

I don't think that they can capture quite the same character dynamics, growth and discovery with older characters (in the movie) as the book did with the 7th and 8th grade characters. So I really hope that they don't just destroy the story with their alternative choices.

If I'm not mistaken I think I heard that they both are playing middle school students.

From: guest (guest) , 93 months, post #28
I have never heard of 18 years cast as middle school students.

I'd imagine it would be easier to adapt the story to high school rather than try and convince an audience these young adults are in the 7th grade.

Dude. In the 90s every teenager on TV was like 35

From: guest , 93 months, post #30
High school age characters are regularly played by 20-somethings (I think one of the Wayan brothers' parodies joked about that) so I wouldn't put it past them to pass off an 18yo as a Jr. high schooler. Probably, though, if they don't specifically make them high-schoolers they'll just leave it unstated as to what their ages are and leave it to the audience to choose what they wanna believe

Dawson casting

Rachel McAdams was born in 1978 and was 24 when she was in The Hot Chick and 26 in Mean Girls. She played a high school girl in those movies. Another actor that's a good example of Dawson casting is Eric Christian Olsen. He played a high schooler in 2009 in Fired Up. He was born in 1977.James Duval played Frank/the bunny in Donnie Darko in 2001 and he was born in 1972 LOL. He was a high schooler in the movie.

TV by the Numbers broke this news today. We have a date for the movie!

“The Swap,” starring Peyton List of “Bunk’d” and Jacob Bertrand of “Kirby Buckets,” will premiere Friday, Oct. 7 on Disney Channel, the Disney Channel app and on demand. You’re reading it first at TV by the Numbers.

The movie is part of Disney’s “Monstober” programming that will run throughout October.

“The Swap” follows friends Ellie (List) and Jack (Bertrand), who, after a text argument over whose life is tougher, find themselves mysteriously inhabiting each other’s bodies. They each have to navigate their new lives and figure out a way to reverse the swap in time for two big events: a rhythmic gymnastics championship for Ellie and hockey tryouts for Jack.

good news. I was hoping for September but happy it's only a month away.

From: DB Cooper , 93 months, post #35
That's very different from the book plot. Ellie and Jack were two strangers who meet and hit it off. They're both dealing with personal issues (Ellie has been abandoned by her cruel best friend and her father has left the family; Jack's mother has died and his father has become distant and dictatorial). When Jack jokingly suggests they should switch lives, the mysterious school nurse makes his 'wish' come true.

From: guest (guest) , 93 months, post #36
Some tiny new plot details. The swap happens because of a text argument and Jack (as Elle) experiences a "spa day"

"The uploader has not made this video available for your country." I always hate it when they do that.

From: Tuggy24g , 93 months, post #40
Thanks for the find Saint. Can't wait to see an actually Hollywood type movie about body swap made.
