I watched Descendants 2 tonight too, and I agree with pretty much all of your points, Watcher. The 1st movie was technically bad in itself, but I at least felt like there was more substance to it. Plus, there were enough so bad it’s good cringeworthy moments to laugh at. But Descendants 2 is just so….bland. There was a lot of emptiness and lack of direction.
One of my biggest issues with this movie was we barely got to see any of the villain parents this time around. They even got Whoopi Goldberg to play Ursula, but we only see her tentacle and hear her say like one line for just a brief scene. Really, they went through the trouble of getting Whoopi just for that? The other villain parent who appeared was Lady Tremaine, but just like with Ursula, we only hear her. Why couldn’t we get more of those 2, along with seeing Hook and Gaston? Heck, we don’t even see the villain parents from the 1st movie again, aside from Maleficent in her lizard form briefly. I get that the focus of these movies are the descendants themselves, but it felt more complete seeing all of the adults too.
[adrotate group="5"]I am surprised by how well this movie is doing. Like, in terms of viewers I knew it was going to be killer, but I’m surprised this movie is getting a lot of positive reviews. I read a few that even say its better than the first.
I guess I am really getting out of touch with Disney.
And yet sadly…… I plan on watching the third one that I’m sure will come out inevitably. This is like OUAT, becoming a guilty pleasure.

Personally….China Ann McClain stole the show! She was really hands down the best thing about it. And Sofia Carson was a close second! Those two did really good….everyone else were just……..cute.

Oh yah, I really enjoyed Evee (sp?) and Uma. I hope Uma sticks around. And I hope we actually SEE Ursula and not just her appendages next film.
Ya know, I gotta say one direction I feel they should have gone in for this movie was having Ben go to the Isle and actually like being a villain. Have him get a little beastly and out of his element and have Mal go over and save him and get him back to his senses, only to find that hes actually in a relationship with Uma now. It would have been a nice switch up from the first movie. Especially if a bunch of the hero kids had to go over there too and learned how to be wicked and then become good again. It would help everyone kinda understand the villain kids a bit more.
My little sis has been playing this movie nonstop so its lowkey growing on me a little. You guys can add “Chilain Like A Villain” to the songs I enjoyed from this movie. So that makes two, along with “Whats My Name.”…… Okay, and I guess “It’s Goin Down” isn’t that bad either on the third or fourth listen.
Guys, Disney channel is brainwashing me. Please send help.

I guess we’ll finally find out who Lily’s father is!
So far, Dove, Sofia, Booboo, Cameron, and China are confirmed to return.
in the books its stated that Mal’s dad was a human. I’m guessing that’s gonna get retconned.
I say his character has something to do with Brave (will o’ the wisps) and he too is some kind of fae. Also he will become good and his love will incite Maleficent to become good and grow back to her normal state.
