obviously there’s no beef between the actresses . it was Disney’s fault that Kimberly Jay Brown wasn’t there. And it was wrong. They wanted a younger actress. Kimberly isn’t mad at Sara but she has gone on record saying she would have done the movie if she was asked.
I feel so bad that Sara Paxton gets hate for playing in Halloweentown 🥺. It's not her fault, it's ok to like both. Like it caught me off guard growing up but I enjoy her playing the role. Thank you for having her (again lol).
Unfortunately that's the thing with series. When you have someone who's done a good job, that the fans loved, to suddenly recast for no reason you're definitely gonna be opened up to hate. Also doesn't help that parts of the movie her acting was just...not good.
As sad as I was about Kim not being in Return to Halloweentown, I'll admit, I had fun watching Sara in it. I honestly really loved the way she looked as a brunette. She's cute as a blonde but would be cool to see her be brunette again. Aquamarine still remains my personal favorite movie she's done. Would love a sequel!
I was one of the few that really liked return to halloween town so I am glad she was a fan of the other movies and I actually would never go on a hate spree over her doing the role. I am mad that they didn't think to just bring Kimberly back but that's not Sara's fault.
I absolutely LOVE Sara Paxton, she's such a sweetheart! Despite the change of actresses, Sara still made the character Marnie we all grew up to love from Kimberly J Brown's portrayal still lovable. I honestly didn't feel the difference except for the fact that she was just a different actor. I wish she didn't get backlash for it because she's amazing! ❤
She really does seem like a sweetheart. So in Aquamarine, she was, in a way playing herself. She said she loved the role, but not because she was a mythical creature, but rather because she finally got to play a nice girl for a change. A good many of her previous roles had her cast, as conceited arrogant snobs, or Bad Girls
Unpopular Opinion: I love Return to Halloweentown and it’s my second favorite movie out of the four Halloweentown movies. Sara did an amazing job as Marnie, she looks so beautiful as a brunette. Also, Sara Paxton does not deserve the hate at all. I remember Darcy’s Wild Life so much and love the song tho. Love Sara on Sleepover and Sydney White, let’s not forget Aquamarine.
Actually same and I love Kim just felt like it actually fit in good it was interesting and Sara did a good job. Just sad knowing how Disney handled it.
My only critique is that I wish these were longer! It feels like you jump from clip to clip so fast and I wouldn’t mind a more long form video where you really dive in to each clip. You have such awesome guests! I love your shows.
Thought they established they were using the wish so Claire can visit Hailey in Australia. I has been a minute since I seen the film but I am 99% sure that's what they decided to use it on in the future.
Aquamarine was the reason I know about Sara Paxton. My dad bought the DVD when my family moved from Florida to Georgia in 2008. Ever since, that was my go to movie and I probably watched it almost a hundred times
@@Jiron127 Debbie Reynolds is irreplaceable, so the grandmother would either have to be dead or left out of the movie. It would be a disgrace to have anyone else fill her shoes in my opinion. Nobody else could even come close to her excellence.
If they did that I would want Sara Paxton to play another character. I don’t think “two marnies” would work out. I think it would be cool if they made a Halloweentown 5 with Kimberly J. Brown as Marnie and Sara Paxton playing a new character so she could also be a part of it.
I love Sara Paxton so much! But I was kinda lowkey hoping that some of her other works would have been featured too! I mean I know that reacting to her most famous roles is the best thing because those are the roles people know her from but I wished she reacted to roles like when she played a mean girl in Sydney White and Sleepover or to some of her movies that people might not be familiar with like All Relative, and my personal fav, Lovestruck: The Musical! But, either way, this is a stellar video as usual! Christy is really giving us the content we deserve!
I remember being so confused at why there was a different Marnie in return to Halloween town but I saw the movie when I was 8 so I would ignore it as Halloween town were the few Halloween movies I would actually watch as a kid as I didn't really like Halloween
I remember I cried when she was in the last house on the left. That scene felt so real. Also she’s only 33 she can still reprise her roles in aquamarine and jojo and Emma are 30 now still looking 18
Halloweentown was my favorite Halloween movie next to Hocus Pocus. I remember when it first premiered. I was taken back at first when Kim did not return to play Marnie BUT I think Sara did a great job playing Marnie as well ^_^
Return to Halloweentown was the first one I saw. I remember going back and watching the previous ones and being like "wait this isn't Marnie" 😂 But we stan both bad witches in this house!
I loved everything Sara Paxton was in when I was a kid. When she was in Halloweentown I was so conflicted. I was so used to Kim, but I was like.. but its Sara Paxton... ahaha Life was so simple back then.
Christy and Sara Paxton All the halloweentown movies are so cool an fun to watch kinda makes me wish all that magic in halloweentown was actually real because it would be cool to live in such a magical place
omg my fav actress when i was like 6! the moment when her and raymond are dancing to that one song is my fav childhood memory and that song literally makes me so happy every time i hear it
I think Sara was a great recast facially for Kim. They have similar chins/jawlines and in the clips they showed, Sara was making facial expressions that really resembled Brown. Maybe she studied her.
So cool to hear her talk about Darcy's Wild Life and she still remembers it! I just found out that show is considered "lost media" since they never released DVD's of it. So all that really exists of it is the intro music and some ads promoting the show.
Outstanding video as always Christy. I thought that Sara Paxton was so awesome in Aquamarine! I really enjoy see the great and fun guest that you bring on your channel. Christy, you have a heart of gold and truly are such a sweet, kind and wonderful delight. Thank you yet again for bringing so much joy into my day with this video Christy! ❤️
Christy you rock 🪨!!!! I love all the episodes with all guests that you invite. I have just remembered or just recognized and realize their work as actors. It makes me feel so much better totally makes my day to watch your videos.I frequently reminisce about my childhood especially what I watched at that time. I still feel like a child and I feel my inner child calling out wanting to come out and play and enjoy life and be carefree.
I LOVEEE SARA PAXTON. aquamarine was my favorite movie as a kid. awesome to hear that it was one of her favorites to work on! that’s also like jennifer’s body, one of my favorites and was megan fox’s favorite to work on. makes it so much better ^-^ and sara was amazing in return to halloweentown. i’m so sad she got hate when it wasn’t her fault >:( she’s a queen 💕💕 i love her singing too. she’s so underrated.
Literally my childhood crushes. My gosh, I remember seeing Christina on Even Steven's, Cadet Kelly, Etc and I used to freaking dream about her lmao. Both gorgeous ladiessss!
I was watching Fact or Fiction Beyond Belief the other day and had to rewind it and do a double take, realizing a tiny little girl Sara Paxton was playing a ghost girl in a secret room of a house. She did a good job for being so young! She always does a good job acting. Thanks for having her on the show Christy!! :D
How on earth am I just now discovering your channel?! This has been the most perfect hit of nostalgia for my heart. If anyone needs me, I'll be spending way too much time binge watching this channel...
I'm such a big fan of Sara's work, I've seen her in everything she's been!! Loved her also in Sleepover and the guest appearance on Jonas starring the jonas brothers and one of my favorite roles she's ever been in was The Last house on the left!!
Love you both so much you both played a huge part of my childhood ❤️ Sarah played one of my favorite mermaids and now in the proud owner of some pretty sick tails 🧜🏾♂️ I absolutely loved Ren and not to mention Kim was everything and thats on period
Return to Halloweentown is my favorite movie from the franchise I honestly don’t understand why people were hating on Sara she made an amazing Marnie and I loved the chemistry between Marnie and Ethan they are still one of my top 5 Disney Channel couples
I think people should stop putting hate on this movie just because Sara was marnie instead of Kimberly and I like both actresses and all the movies also I wonder if she will react to hounded or just return to Halloweentown
Who's a fan of Return to Halloweentown or Aquamarine?!
Big fan of all Sara's work - I remember her on Lizzy.
VERY pretty girl
I love her Aquarium only 😁👍🏽❤️
I'm a fan of both of those movies their classics Sarah is a very beautiful woman talented actress
Me
Sara was one of my favourite childhood actresses, and Aquamarine fuelled my mermaid obsession!
Woot woot!
Me too.
Same and H2O lol
@@Hannahleigh_ yaaasss! H2O ftw!
Aquamarine was my favorite movie and so were the Halloweentown movies!
obviously there’s no beef between the actresses . it was Disney’s fault that Kimberly Jay Brown wasn’t there. And it was wrong. They wanted a younger actress. Kimberly isn’t mad at Sara but she has gone on record saying she would have done the movie if she was asked.
Kim Possible/Danny Phantom: th-cam.com/video/yY7BEX39TlA/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the clarification. I hated that they changed the actress.
It wasn’t Sara’s fault however it was Disney’s
@@lindacundiff4613 yeah and they are only 3 years apart....shes not much older than sara
Actually Kimberly was asked, she declined because she was busy working on something else.
I feel so bad that Sara Paxton gets hate for playing in Halloweentown 🥺. It's not her fault, it's ok to like both. Like it caught me off guard growing up but I enjoy her playing the role. Thank you for having her (again lol).

Also doesn't help that parts of the movie her acting was just...not good.
I preferred the old marny but I didn’t give Sara any hate lol
I don't hate Sara it's just that when I think of Marnie and Halloween Town I prefer Kimberly in the role.
I hated her as Marnie however, she doesnt deserve the backlash or hate.. Disney does
Romance girl

She's cute as a blonde but would be cool to see her be brunette again. Aquamarine still remains my personal favorite movie she's done. Would love a sequel!
I agree with everything you said. 😁
Aquamarine was life, def need to rewatch it.
@@CherryBlossomBlyue yeah. Don’t recommend reading the book, though. The movie made it much better.
She was good, but I disagree about the hair. People should like their natural look.
She always reminded me of Alexis Bledel back in the day. She’s still beautiful as ever too! I love her in The Last House On the Left remake. ❤️
I can see that
I was just thinking that lol
She does remind me of her
she does look like alexis
Yess especially when with brown hair!
I was one of the few that really liked return to halloween town so I am glad she was a fan of the other movies and I actually would never go on a hate spree over her doing the role. I am mad that they didn't think to just bring Kimberly back but that's not Sara's fault.

Next time!
@@christycarlsonromano buenos días
I literally still watch Summerland sometimes 😂
@@samanthasea7 same
Omg yes Summerland!! It’d be so cool if Christina could get Jesse McCartney on an episode, I’d watch the hell out of that 🤪

There were four movies
Better than Return to Oz
I agree return to Halloweentown is a great film regardless
Actually same and I love Kim just felt like it actually fit in good it was interesting and Sara did a good job. Just sad knowing how Disney handled it.
Kimberly has talked about Sara and I’m glad Sara now addressed this! Love my Halloween town girls 💞
Woot woot!
@@christycarlsonromano i love u
where and when?
@@pokemontas8025 there’s a video of KJB talking about it on TH-cam!
They should do some multiverse Halloween town so both can exist
My god i would die for an Aquamarine 2 with all of them!! One of my all time fave movies
My only critique is that I wish these were longer! It feels like you jump from clip to clip so fast and I wouldn’t mind a more long form video where you really dive in to each clip. You have such awesome guests! I love your shows.
Make Aquamarine 2 be about the wish that Hailey and Claire never made!
Thought they established they were using the wish so Claire can visit Hailey in Australia. I has been a minute since I seen the film but I am 99% sure that's what they decided to use it on in the future.
@@lilymae7516 I just watched it, they didn't make a wish.. they mentioned Claire coming to visit Hailey in Australia but not as their wish.
This is such a good idea! I would love that.
Aquamarine was the reason I know about Sara Paxton.
My dad bought the DVD when my family moved from Florida to Georgia in 2008. Ever since, that was my go to movie and I probably watched it almost a hundred times
I'd love to see a Halloweentown 5: Tale of Two Marnies. Cast both Sara and Kimberly. They have to work together to save the day.
Fund it, Disney.
I'm down for some multiverse. The grandma is alive or no??
No thank you. Just need Kimberly J. Brown and we're gucci
wait this is actually an amazing idea!
@@Jiron127 Debbie Reynolds is irreplaceable, so the grandmother would either have to be dead or left out of the movie. It would be a disgrace to have anyone else fill her shoes in my opinion. Nobody else could even come close to her excellence.

Sara Paxton 💚
Just unlocked a memory with Darcys wild life!!!
I was OBSESSED with Aquamarine!! I wanted blue in my hair after that movie 🧜♀️
Halloweentown series are a tradition to watch. What a wonderful actress sara is.
SARA LOOKS SO AMAZING she’s only gotten more beautiful for freaking real
Sara Paxton, one of my favorite actresses from Aquamarine and Return to Halloweentown, is phenomenonal in every way.
boi how old are u
I LOOOOOVE SARA PAXTON!!! When i was a teen I would automatically watch anything she was in. She seems so sweet!
“Get your tail out of the closet!!! Let’s go Sarah” I’m excited for this mama marine movie lol
Another great one! I loved Darcy's Wild Life !
Same here!
I love Sara Paxton so much! But I was kinda lowkey hoping that some of her other works would have been featured too!

Omg WHY U LYING🤣🤣 i thought she was 45-52
@@tysofly25 Yk damn well she don’t look that old be fr
never knew she could sing, but i loved her in return to halloweentown and aquamarine
Halloweentown was my favorite Halloween movie next to Hocus Pocus. I remember when it first premiered. I was taken back at first when Kim did not return to play Marnie BUT I think Sara did a great job playing Marnie as well ^_^
She kicks ass! Loved her in Halloween town! Her performance in last house on the left was haunting too
Return to Halloweentown was the first one I saw. I remember going back and watching the previous ones and being like "wait this isn't Marnie" 😂 But we stan both bad witches in this house!
You must be young. Like barely 21.
Sara’s skin/makeup is amazing… finally someone who doesn’t paint their face orange/yellow
I loved everything Sara Paxton was in when I was a kid. When she was in Halloweentown I was so conflicted. I was so used to Kim, but I was like.. but its Sara Paxton... ahaha Life was so simple back then.
Absolutely fantastic love all of Halloween Town movies especially Benny
Love Sara Paxton. She was fun to watch in Superhero Movie.
I love Sara!!! It was so wild to see her play her character in Good Girls, because she’s so sweet!!!
Oh yes i forgot she was on good girls!
Ahhh, I Love Sara Paxton!! & im ALL for a new Aquamarine about Aqua having a baby🥰
LOL
Sara is amazing
I first saw her 15 years ago in aquamarine
Been a fan ever since
I saw parts of Darcy on tv
She’s sweet!
Cool to see Sara Paxton on here again.
Christy and Sara Paxton All the halloweentown movies are so cool an fun to watch kinda makes me wish all that magic in halloweentown was actually real because it would be cool to live in such a magical place
Earlier this week on Monday, it was the birthday of Lindsay Shaw. And today's the birthday of singer Stevie Wonder.

I HAVE WAITED 15 YEARS TO HEAR HER TALK ABOUT THIS

I can't believe that Sara still gets hate for Halloweentown every October! 😭😭 I love Sara and I still watch Aquamarine when I'm feeling nostalgic.
I think Sara was a great recast facially for Kim. They have similar chins/jawlines and in the clips they showed, Sara was making facial expressions that really resembled Brown. Maybe she studied her.
Apparently ‘Darcy’s Wild Life’ is considered a lost media 😂
lol
@@christycarlsonromano la aml
I saw it on Discovery Kids.
I remember that show and Strange Days at Blake Holsey High
@@benjaminnatanielbincthomps1591 God I love and miss that show
She was amazing in The Last House to the Left
Sara Paston was just as good as Kimberly; had no ever seen the previous Halloweentowns, they wouldn't have given Sara a second thought. She rocked it!
Yesss loved her in Sydney white! Funny movie! 😁😁👍👍👏👏
AW you guys! 🥰 I’m rewatching my childhood shows and movies with my 4 year olds daughter right now!! We love you @SaraPaxton 💕

I hope Sara and Kimberly do a Halloween tiktok together like "yall we cool like stop!"

As always - GREAT SHOW - see you next week
Rock on!
How did I never realize she was the really really really girl from Lizzie McGuire?
Totally on board for an Aquamarine sequal, i was obsessed with that movie growing up!
The fact that Ren knows Miss Paxton is just amazing. The star power of Ren to be able to summon these people.
