disney channel loves west side story
with the previously announced high school musical: east meets west, you would think disney wouldn't try their hands at the whole west side story/romeo and juliet concept for a second go around until after the film's premiere. but, that isn't the case. the mouse house has green-lit the script for their other musical movie franchise, camp rock's, sequel, camp rock 2: the final jam. the second installment of the demi lovato/jobros series will follow mitchie (lovato) and the boys from "connect 3" (the brothers) will head back to camp rock for another summer, but will come to find that a lot of their close friends have jumped ship to newly opened camp star. some of the most talented kids and instructors are now traitors and camp rock is suffering. so, what are the camp rock-ites to do to keep the camp afloat? a big musical rock-off between the rival camp. duh. while joe was the only brother to really star in the original flick, nick will take romantic center stage in this go around. as joe's shane and demi's mitchie continue to go strong in their relationship, nick will find love with - shocker! - one of the rival campers. said camper is the daughter of camp star's owner, a talented pianist to be played by chloe bridges, who most recently appeared in the straight to dvd trequel legally blondes. the movie will start production this summer (hsm4 goes into production this fall) and some tracks have already been recorded (demi lovato tweeted she had laid a track called "never let it go"). american idol's newly married judge, kara dio guardi, is set to pen the music for the sequel. hopefully the jonai have improved their acting skills since the first movie, but from what i've seen of their sitcom jonas, i'm not so sure.

eww. the legally blondes were annoying. adding them to the jo-hos and demi lavato? thats repulsive. i'm sure i will be tuned in.
