CommentsXp Best movie ever!

fivekidss I don't think this movie was anywhere near as bad as people want to make it out to be.1) Yes, they should have had Aggie on there more, but on the flipside I enjoyed seeing a younger her dealing with Marnie.2) Sophie can wait, not needed when she's off training, that was covered very well, get over it.3) I do feel that they changed the character Marnie a bit too much. She acted too "girlie" girl, when Marnie is anything but.4) I did kinda wonder why they didn't have Luke in there anymore, but I was more than happy to see her with Lucas Grabeel. It made perfect sense to me since she introduced him to the real world, and after going through everything he did, to have been with Aggie for a while, it made sense that he would want to befriend her and even fall for her. I absolutely loved that!! 5) Bottom line, I agree with only one thing, Sara Paxton stunk!!! Bring back all the real characters or don't do the movie at all. We're stuck on the characters. I want to know what happens with Luke. I want to see Ethan and Marnie in better sync with each other, as I feel they could have been.6) I did enjoy the storyline as it went, however I did feel they cast Marnie in a light that was very un-true to the character. They could have done this and kept the character in tact. I understand if a person can't play the role, get real people, it happens. Just because she couldn't come back for one movie is no reason to bash people.

tallcat23 I've enjoyed all the Halloweentown movies to date. But I was disappointed that Aggie, Sophie, and the real "Marnie" (Kimberly J Brown) did not return. I also did not like that Marnie became a wimp in this one and wasn't her usual self who would defy the rules. Not only the actor changed but her character changed too. Other than that the story was fine. I enjoyed the movie. Just don't say the characters are going to be there and then not have them there. Sara Paxton would have been suited to have played another character in the movie, but not the part of Marnie. I look forward to seeing the characters return, with each new installment.

acgckids5 This was an awesome movie. They need more of them. They do need to keep them coming. Halloweentown movies need to be a trilogy. I think they could keep them going for years to come Since there is three kids let them make movies with each of them having problems. Let them try and figure out the problems if they can't have them ask for help. Let them get married and let the movies still going on with their children needing help. They are that good. There is so many possibilities out there to go for that they can't run out of ideas. We really need these since TV takes away the charmed series this would be something to see and then wait to see again. Thanks.

jhg812 Marnie Piper is given a scholarship to Witch University, a very prestigious college in Halloweentown. Accompanied by her brother, Dylan Piper, Marnie quickly adjusts to life at Witch University. She makes three friends, Aneesa (a genie), Ethan Dalloway, and a troll whose name is almost not pronounceable, and three enemies, Sage, Saphire, and Scarlett Sinister. As the film progresses, Marnie becomes aware of a conspiracy led by a secret organization called "The Dominion." The Dominion plans to harness the Cromwell magic locked away in a stone container by Splendora Cromwell, one of the earliest Cromwells, and take over Halloweentown. What follows is betrayal, romance, time travel, and Disney Channel suspense.Like many, I was a little disappointed that Kimberley J. Brown did not reprise her role, but Sara Paxton did a very good job in her stead. Paxton's Marnie is different from Brown's Marnie; this Marnie is a bit more invigorated and definitely personifies teenage angst.While Judith Hoag and Joey Zimmerman return as Gwen and Dylan Piper, Emily Roeske (Sophie Piper) does not have a role in the movie, and Debbie Reynolds (Aggie Cromwell) only has two cameos. While in my opinion, the loss of Roeske is not very tragic (she was barely in the third movie), I was surprised that Reynolds did not have a larger role.The Sinister sisters (Kelly Cockrell, Katie Cockrell, and Kristy Wu) seem rather one dimensional. Scarlett (Wu) is the only sister who does not seem next to lifeless. I was also surprised that Sage and Saphire (Cockrell and Cockrell) did not have larger roles; their apparent purpose in the movie is to accompany Scarlett, who, of course, walks in the middle as if leading the pack.I would write about the teachers and other faculty members that Marnie and Dylan meet at Witch University, but this website does not mention the names of at least two of them. What I can write is that Dr. Grogg is falsely benevolent, Dr. Goodwin (Leslie Pomeroy) has an aura of menace, Silas Sinister (the Sinister sisters' father) is repetitive and rather flat, yet imposing, and Professor Periwinkle, who was a friend of Marnie's grandmother, is very likable.Ethan's (Lucas Grabeel, reprising his role from "Halloweentown High") character seems to have completely changed. He went from static and pompous to unusually flirtatious and caring. That was not a bad change; it was just unexpected. Aneesa (Summer Bishil) is a newcomer, but fills out her role very well.But enough about the characters. The story was very good. There were a few pop culture references (some of which seemed a little anachronistic) such as "ring tone," "G-Unit," "shimmy," and "Spiderman," but their usage was funny. And every so often there was a shot of Judith Hoag yelling odd things at a birdbath or a toilet. The whole time travel storyline was very interesting; it was marred ever so slightly by the fact that Splendora Cromwell was not as ancient an ancestor as she would be expected to be. Overall, though, the movie was very enjoyable, and I feel that it was the best Halloweentown installment to date.
