What would you do with the incredible power of time travel? No, look... no, you can't stop historical tragedies from happening because you can only go back in time 48 hours so- no, you can't buy a lottery ticket either because you're a teenager in this scenario, so you- no, you can't see wonderful things all over the world, you have to remain within a 20 minute travel radius of your school. You'd use it to stop nerds embarrassing themselves two days in the past? Yeah, that's probably as good as it's going to get, isn't it.That's the decision the heroes of this week's DCOM, 2008's Minutemen, also come to and before long they're popping out of a time hole to stop a nerd from getting pantsed, and barreling through the space time continuum to prevent a geek from walking around school with toilet paper stuck to his shoe. But when their chronovigilantism offers one of them a chance to undo his greatest mistake, will he take it?

Imagine the situation: the Walt Disney company wants to turn your life story into a movie! It's a dream come true. That is, until the movie comes out, and you realise it's a crushingly boring series of basketball games and for some reason they've decided to name it "Double Teamed". You'd be livid.Still, I suppose it has to feature some basketball, as Double Teamed tells the real life story of Heather and Heidi Burge, twin sisters and pioneers of the WNBA. But their rise to the top wasn't always smooth, if this film is to be believed, and they had to deal with among other things, not liking basketball, evil teammates, and since this is a DCOM, the world's worst dad.

Being a princess is hard work. You're the best person in your whole kingdom, and yet you're somehow expected to set an example for the scum who live there, and occasionally military dictators will stride into your throne room and declare a military coup. Luckily for those situations, we have the Princess Protection Program, a secret service just for young, female royalty, who will spirit princesses away from dangerous conflict zones and force them to live in a stinking bait shack in a Louisiana swamp. Hooray!This unlikely situation is where Princess Rosalinda (Demi Lovato) finds herself in 2009's Princess Protection Program, much to the chagrin of one of the bait shack's current occupants, Carter (Selena Gomez). However, as Rosalinda's exile continues, the two find themselves growing closer, and both of them start to realise the true meaning of being a princess: pop rock montages. Will Rosalinda be able to return to the kingdom of Costa Luna? Can Carter win the coveted title of Homecoming Queen? And why doesn't General Kane just strafe everyone involved with his F-16s?

The title of this week's DCOM, Camp Rock, is misleading, because while it does take place at a camp, the only rocking taking place is the rocking back and forth by harrowed students who can't face another day of impromptu unaccompanied singing, people drumming on every available surface, and hip hop dance classes taught by Joe Jonas. Apparently though, there are people who actually want to attend Camp Rock, on purpose, people like Mitchie Torres (Demi Lovato), who scores a coveted spot at the camp thanks to them hiring her mom's catering business. But when Mitchie lies about her background to impress some popular girls, she starts building a house of cards that could come crashing down, taking a Jonas Brother's feelings with it. Will Mitchie learn to be true to herself? Why did one of the Jonas Brothers allow himself to be characterised as a backwards idiot? And is "Brown Cesario" a real name? Listen and find out!

Parents might seem like they've got everything figured out, but it's worth remembering that they're just one failed time travel experiment away from crying, throwing temper tantrums, and liberally pissing themselves at the slightest provocation. Not so high and mighty now, eh? That's the premise of 2001's The Poof Point, in which accomplished husband and wife scientist team Norton and Marigold Ballard decide to let a dog wander into their time machine and start pulling things out at random. Because of this, the pair starts rapidly de-aging and it's up to their kids, Eddie and Marie to save the day before their bickering parents reach the fatal 'poof point' and poof out of existence. Will the Ballards be able to figure out what went wrong with the experiment? Should Eddie still attend his audition for the band The Urban Slugs, considering that his parents will die very soon? Did Norty make a mess? Listen and find out!

We're back in the Wonderful World of Disney this week, to check out Life-Size, the 2000 comedy starring Lindsay Lohan as a grieving little girl who uses a necromancy grimoire to try and resurrect her dead mother, and Tyra Banks as a doll who comes to life and tries to have sex with that little girl's father. Lohan plays Casey, a young girl who uses a mystical book to try and bring her mom back to life, but when some doll hair accidentally gets into her dark ritual she ends up with a life-sized doll named Eve (Banks), who is eager to experience everything the world has to offer, especially Casey's Dad (Jere Burns), and every other man at his law office. Will Casey be able to find the book containing the reversal spell and send Eve back to her home town of Sunnyvale? Will dad realise that his daughter is more important than making partner at his law firm? And why is this film a dark erotic thriller instead of a fun kids' film? Listen and find out!

What if a snowman came to life? It'd be pretty horrifying I expect, on account of how he'd be like, three fleshy balls, precariously balanced on top of each other. But what if the snowman had abs? Pretty sexy, right? Also he has the mind of a child. Wait, come back. That's the premise for Hot Frosty (2024), Netflix's smash hit holiday movie in which a sexual snowman comes to life to romance a bereaved widow looking to put the spark back into her life. And by romance, we mean fix a bunch of stuff around her house, get turned down for hugs, and almost kiss her twice, because this movie is light on the steamy romance, and heavy on scenes of policemen doing sketch comedy work. But it's probably for the best, because did I mention he has the mind of a child? Good, good. Just checking.

We return to The Wonderful World of Disney for this week's offering, 1999's H-E Double Hockey Sticks, which reunites Boy Meets World's Will Friedel and Matthew Lawrence as Griffelkin, a demon in training, and Dave Heinrich, an ambitious hockey player who would sell his soul to win the Stanley Cup, and then does do that. But that's when things start to go wrong, not only for Griffelkin, who finds himself getting attached to his human target, but also the movie, which then aimlessly spins its wheels for ages until deciding it's going to spend the last twenty minutes speedrunning a ragtag sports movie arc. Will Dave learn to be a team player and turn around the fortunes of the Annapolis Angels? Will Griffelkin shut up for, like, five minutes? Is this entire movie the result of a wager between bored 19th Century aristocrats?

In a last gasp for Halloween 2024, Mom Can't Cook is back with our live Halloween special, in which we're recapping 2004's Halloweentown High! Marnie Cromwell, powerful witch and Best Person In The World is back with a new plan to unite the human world and Halloweentown: make a bunch of Halloweentown students attend her high school, in disguise, so that no one knows they're from Halloweentown. But having bet the Cromwell magic that this experiment will work, Marnie soon finds sinister forces of varying levels of attention to detail working against her, and must race against time to have humans accept creatures before midnight on Halloween, lest her and her family not be able to levitate hot cocoa around any more.

Welcome, foolish mortals, to the Mom Can't Cook podcast! Consider this dismaying observation: this episode is about the 2003 Haunted Mansion movie, which offered us this chilling challenge: watching the 2003 Haunted Mansion movie. Eddie Murphy plays Jim Evers, a workaholic real estate agent who drags his family to the titular manse with the hopes of earning a big payday from selling it. But as soon as the Evers arrive they realise that all is not well at Gracey Manor, as the house's 999 happy haunts come out to socialise. Will Eddie Murphy stop effing around long enough to save his family? Are Master Gracey and Eddie Murphy's wife actually really into each other? And how is ramping a horse and carriage out of an attic considered anyone's 'way'?

This week, the DCOM writers spin the sports wheel and get a teen... [BOXER] who is worried about the ridicule he'll receive for his secret love of... [COMPETITIVE DOUBLE DUTCH JUMP ROPE]. Huh. Not sure how that got on here, but let's see how they get on. The boxer in question is Isadore "Izzy" Daniels, a pugilistic prodigy under a lot of pressure from his overbearing dad to succeed and become the third generation of Daniels to win the prestigious golden gloves tournament. Izzy is fine with this, until one day he takes his sister to a jump rope contest and the scales fall from his eyes, revealing to him a whole new world of *checks notes* competitive jump rope. Can Izzy balance his love of boxing and double dutch? Will he find romance with Mary, the feisty leader of local underdog skipping team the Joy Jumpers? Does this movie's narrator think we're idiots?

High School Musical may have been the most successful musical DCOM, but it wasn't the first. That dubious honour belongs to 2003's The Cheetah Girls, which charts the fortunes of a four piece girl group as they navigate friendship, fame, and deciding whether or not to trust a man who is literally named 'Jackal Johnson.' When we first meet the Cheetah Girls they're performing at kids' birthday parties to audiences just waiting for them to shut up so they can go ham on the pinata. But a chance encounter with a famous music producer leads them down a dark path that ends the same way so many of these stories do: with a dog in a hole. Can the Cheetahs stay true to themselves while doing what it takes to launch their music career? Is one of their dads really Super Mario in witness protection? And why is a full third of this movie a musicless dog rescue?

What if Johnny Tsunami were a lot less fun, and a lot more about probate law and real estate deals? That's the question no one asked that was answered by Rip Girls (2000)! Sydney Miller is a 13 year old girl who suddenly finds herself the owner of a large parcel of land in Hawaii after a distant relative leaves it to her in their will. But it turns out that Hawaii holds painful memories for her overprotective father, who left the island after Sydney's mother was killed in a mysterious accident that happened in some kind of large body of water, while riding some kind of board, on some kind of 'wave'. What could possibly have happened to Sydney's mother? Will Sydney sell the farm to evil property developers who want to turn it into a sensitively developed eco resort? Or will she become a cattle farmer while her dad opens a school for stray horses up on the hill?

High School Musical was a watershed moment for Disney Channel Original Movies, when they crossed over from odd, throwaway curiosities about mermen and telepathic horses, into huge mainstream success, with hit albums, merchandise and two bona fide stars in the form of Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens. With all that being said however, it is still recognisably a DCOM, thanks to such unmissable genre conventions as a vaguely nonsensical plot, a budget of about $40, and of course, a weapons-grade Bad Dad.

The Even Stevens Movie (2003) is the culmination of three years and 65 episodes of television, which we have seen precisely none of. However, that's not going to stop us from recapping this wild movie, in which the Stevens family think they've won a dream vacation to a paradise island, only to end up unwitting participants in a cruel reality show. Having seen none of Even Stevens, it's hard to know what's a beloved Even Stevens Bit, and what is unconnected nonsense concocted for the movie. For example, is Louis Stevens always building sex chairs in the show? Is there really a cool teen character called Alan Twitty? Why is the character of Beans... full stop.

Jace Newfield is a New Yorker through and through. He loves jazz music, playing baseball in Central Park and, of course, the great taste of an egg cream. He's also a person who is blind, although in a place like the Big Apple, he lives a normal life with his friends. But when his family uproots and moves Jace to Utah, he finds himself struggling with his new surroundings. The school won't get a beeping backboard to allow him to play basketball, his music teacher hates him, and his classmates don't seem to appreciate him walking around loudly talking about how great New York is, and how everyone in Utah is a toothless hillbilly who wouldn't know culture if it spit in their egg cream. Can joining the wrestling team give Jace a new sense of purpose and belonging? Why is this movie about wrestling and not jazz music? What the hell is an egg cream?

Imagine, if you will, some cooking. Seems pretty normal, right? Well get this: it was done by a BOY. Sorry to shock you with such a mind shattering scenario, listeners, but you'll need to be thusly prepared for this week's episode which is about Eddie's Million Dollar Cook-Off, a movie in which baseball-loving teen Eddie Ogden discovers a passion for the culinary arts that is as charming as it is devastating to his personal and academic life.

Welcome back, podcast fans, to Mom Can't Cook! This week we're recapping 2006's Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior, a film that attempts to be a martial arts movie, a high school drama, a wacky fish out of water comedy and a thoughtful examination of the pressures affecting first and second generation immigrants. Does it succeed? Kind of! DCOM royalty Brenda Song plays Wendy Wu, a feisty teen whose only goal in life is to be crowned homecoming queen at the prom, a plan that is thrown into jeopardy when a Shaolin monk turns up to inform her that she is the reincarnation of a legendary warrior who must defeat an ancient evil named Yan Lo. Will Wendy embrace her culture and history to defeat Yan Lo? Can she balance her homecoming campaign with her kung fu training? And why are everyone's clothes so dusty?

It's the holiday season folks, so this week we're cracking into a seasonal DCOM: the impossibly festive sounding The Ultimate Christmas Present (2000). The movie tells the story of Allie and Sam, two teenage girls who steal Santa's weather machine, which you'll notice, isn't a thing Santa is known for having. If he were known for having a weather machine, said machine probably wouldn't have an earthquake button either, but while we're here imagining things, we may as imagine a better movie.

Continuing the grand DCOM tradition of trying to get you to care about niche sports, this week's episode is about Right on Track (2003), which takes us deep into the highly competitive world of *checks notes* junior drag racing. Here we meet Erica Enders and her sister Courtney, junior dragster prodigies who struggle to be taken seriously because of a) the sexist attitudes of those in charge of this male dominated sport, and b) the fact that the sport itself is driving really fast in a straight line for eight seconds. Will they be able to overcome these obstacles and win the big race? Listen and find out!

The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror is a Disney ride in which you get in an elevator that flings you up and down for about a minute.

Guttenberg plays the improbably named Buzzy Crocker, a fraudulent journalist who is presented with the opportunity of a lifetime: head to the derelict Hollywood Tower Hotel to solve the mysterious disappearance of five people from the elevator on Halloween night, 1939. Will Buzzy be able to get to the bottom of what happened? Is the hotel haunted? And will his sister finally relent and let him take photos of his niece in an abandoned building? Listen and find out!

If you didn't watch 1999's Don't Look Under the Bed when it first came out, then let us introduce you to that rarest of things: a good DCOM! If you did watch it when it first came out then you won't need reminding, as this film is absolutely terrifying and you've doubtless seen it every time you close your eyes for the last 24 years. The film tells the story of Frances Bacon McCausland, a gifted teen who starts to be blamed for mysterious, mischievous happenings all over town. At first she suspects the improbably named Larry Houdini, a strange boy that only she can see, but it soon becomes clear that darker, more Boogeyman-related forces are at work, and Frances must team up with Larry to save her brother, and the town itself. Also, did I mention it's terrifying? Because it is.

Will Zenon save her home, again? What do the aliens want with the lead singer of Microbe? And why do they keep saying "blow an O-ring", even though we all know what it means now?

What if a huge pop star accidentally swapped phones with a teenage fan? Seems like the sort of thing his PA would fix in about 15 minutes, right? Well not in Stuck in the Suburbs (2004), because you wouldn't believe how long it takes to sort out or how many low speed bicycle chases are involved. The phone in question belongs to pop sensation Jordan Cahill, and ends up in the possession of Brittany Aarons, a Jordan superfan and aspiring musician who is thrilled to have a connection to her favourite singer. But after her and her friend Natasha invade his privacy, blackmail him, and extort him in a legally actionable way, they start to realise that Jordan may have a deeper side that his record company is keeping under wraps.
