Dadnapped/Hatching Pete Double Feature DVD

HatchingPeteandDadnappedDVD On May 12th, two popular Disney Channel Original Movies, Dadnapped and Hatching Pete, will be released on DVD as a double feature. This is the first time that two Disney feature length movies are coming together on one disc.

I received my copy the other day and we watched both movies again, as well as all of the great bonus features. I really hope Disney continues to release DCOM’s in a double feature like this. It just makes sense and it’s such a great addition to any Disney fan’s DVD collection!

Dadnapped

In Dadnapped, fourteen year-old Melissa (Emily Osment) is struggling with a unique kind of sibling rivalry. To get her father Neil’s (George Newburn) attention, she has to compete with teenage spy Tripp Zoome, the main character in her father’s best selling novels. Her dad spends so much time on his imaginary son’s exciting missions that even Melissa’s special daughter-dad vacation gets interrupted by a promotional event for Neil’s newest book. But when Neil is abducted by overzealous fanboys and falls into the clutches of a pair of sinister brothers, the fictional Tripp can’t save him and Melissa will have to try to channel her "inner Zoome" to rescue her dad. 

Hatching Pete

A bashful high school student finds fames as a high-flying poultry impersonator in Hatching Pete. Pete’s (Jason Dolley) best friend Poole (Mitchel Musso) wants to keep up his family’s longstanding tradition of playing their high school mascot, the Chicken, but Poole is allergic to the costume. Pete agrees to stand in for his pal, but only on the condition that his identity remains a secret. The anonymity of the Chicken suit gives Pete the freedom he’s always dreamed of and a whole new personality emerges. His unexpectedly outrageous antics make the Chicken an instant celebrity— except no one knows it’s Pete. As Poole reaps the benefits of his pal’s talent, Pete must decide if it’s time to reveal that he’s the man behind the beak.
