    3. "Nothing is cringier than that God-awful R&B version of 'Be Our Guest' from the first Descendants movie. I almost turned off the movie after that scene, and it took a LOT of convincing for me to finish it. It was SO DUMB AND UNNECESSARY!"

    9. "In Austin and Ally, when Austin sings 'Steal Your Heart' in the middle of a court case to prove he wrote the song, and everyone, including the judge, dances along to it. Don’t get me wrong, that song is a bop, but seriously I don’t understand the logic of the scene LOL."

    15. "I'm forever embarrassed that in Cheetah Girls, they thought performing a song would help rescue Galleria's dog, who was trapped under the road."
