Teen Beach Movie is a Disney Channel Original Movie about a couple from 2013 who get sucked into a teen beach movie from 1962.It starts with teen couple Mack (McKenzie) and Brady. They're surfers who live in a beach town. Mack lives with her grandpa who owns a surf shop, that is until her Aunt Antoinette comes to take her to a private school out East as a promise Mack made to her dead mother that she would be successful. Brady gets upset by this, as she didn't tell him the whole time they were together and she breaks up with him so they don't have the strain of separation. Mack is feeling regretful for having to leave and decides to surf one last time in the morning because of the unusually large waves.As Mack surfs, the weather gets worse, and so do the waves. As Brady and Mack's grandpa watch her defy the lifeguards' red flags, Brady decides to go out to the water and take her in before she gets caught in the oncoming storm. Just as Brady gets to Mack, they are both swept under a wave that they struggle to escape from. When they finally reach the surface, they realize the storm is gone, along with other suspicious things. Once they check out what's happened, they find out they've landed in...Brady's favorite movie, Wet Side Story; the 1962 teen beach movie about a pair of Star-Crossed Lovers from the rival groups of surfers and bikers rivaling over Local Hangout, Big Momma's. Unbeknownst to everyone but Mack and Brady, evil real estate developer, Les Camembert and mad scientist, Dr. Fusion, are planning to destroy the beach and Big Momma's to build a resort. Also, by accident, Mack and Brady make the leads fall in love with them instead of each other.As the two try to figure out how to escape and set the plot right, they also teach the characters in the movie about independence and following your heart, and end up teaching themselves the same lessons.On June 26, 2015 the sequel premiered, appropriately titled Teen Beach 2. This time Lela and Tanner somehow find themselves transported from the movie to the present time with Mack and Brady. The cast was also joined by I Didn't Do It's Piper Curda. Unlike the first movie, the sequel ended up vastly underperforming with a little over 4 million viewers - in the meantime, Disney Channel has decided to switch over to a new musical movie franchise, Descendants, that premiered about a month after Teen Beach 2. | |

Genre Savvy | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_1777688d | comment |
Genre Savvy: Brady is naturally this, given that he has the whole movie practically memorized. It comes in handy to explain to Mack what's happening and to figure out how to get the plot back on its rails. As Mack herself said, she's paid enough attention to the movie to figure out what's going on too, and is just generally savvy enough to understand what generally happens in a movie like this. It's how she figures out they're morphing into the movie (when her hair doesn't get wet) and how she figures out Camembert and Dr. Fusion figured out they figured out their evil plans, even if only a little too late (by how they're suddenly speaking in plot points). Giggles gets an understated moment near the end, when the bikers and surfers are going to rescue Mack and Brady. During this, Butchy says he's afraid of lighthouses, has a brief moment where they try to convince him, only to say he's suddenly gotten over it. They all cheer and rush forward, only for Butchy to carefully try and sneak away… and the apparently-not-so Dumb Blonde saw that coming, pushing him onward once he's caught. And Giggles does it again in the second movie, when Butchy is afraid of the ocean. | |

The Heart | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_1badfb3a | comment |
The Heart: Lela is a very sweet, friendly, and kind-hearted girl who doesn't bear any ill will to the surfers she's supposed to have a rivalry with. In Wet Side Story, it's her role, along with Tanner, to unite the rivaling gangs. And even when the plot had been derailed thanks to the interference of Mack and Brady, she's still able to end up accomplishing this. | |

Self-Parody | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_1d52b714 | comment |
Self-Parody: Disney seems to be parodying some of its own movie clichés. High School Musical in particular. Considering it's not their first time giving a good jab at their older material, it shouldn't be much of a surprise. Though, it came only 5 years after the HSM trilogy rather than the decades the earlier film did. | |

A Little Something We Call "Rock and Roll" | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_1fe5e35b | comment |
A Little Something We Call "Rock and Roll": Mack taught Lela the modern point of view about feminism and female independence. This caused Lela to change the original Wet Side Story into Lela, Queen of the Beach, a feminist movie at the end of the second movie, and created a bond between the two ladies that survived even the reset button that is pressed when Lela changed her movie. | |

Parental Abandonment: While it is explicitly stated that Mack's mom died several years before the movie started, there is no mention of her father and she is living in her grandfather's surfboard shop. Mack also mentions her mom's diary stating she wanted to go to college before Mack was born, so it is probable that her mother got pregnant in high school, or soon after, and the father didn't stick around. | |

Lampshade Hanging | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_2a090d00 | comment |
Lampshade Hanging: It's hard to find a scene without this. The unrealistic conventions of movies are pointed out, usually by Mack. She scoffs at people suddenly breaking into songs and having perfect, dry hair after being in the sea. Having them occur to herself is how she figures out that she is morphing into the movie. Of course it carries through into the second movie, albeit in somewhat of a reversed order. | |

Ambiguous Ending: If the idea that the ending of the second movie where Mac and Brady's history is rewritten is a What If? scenario that doesn't actually effect the main timeline of the films, it leads to the idea that while the actual Mac and Brady still have problems with their relationship, they care about each other that much that they'll continue working through them no matter what. | |

Metaphorgotten: A little way into 'Cruisin' For A Bruisin'' the Rodents seem to forget the meaning of the phrase and begin applying it to themselves instead of the surfers.

Revealing Continuity Lapse: In the first movie, as part of Mack and Brady being sucked into a fictional movie world, they notice things don't quite line up with reality. They change clothes in an instant, their hair is dry even when they've fallen into the ocean, and they even experience an immediate time-shift. In the sequel, movie protagonists Tanner and Lela end up in the real world. For quite a while, their interactions with reality line up with the rules established in their own world- their hair is dry in water, and whatever clothes they wear instantly turn into clothes straight from the 60s. | |

| Teen Beach Movie / int_4b0ef86e | comment |
Advertised Extra: Aside from Lela and Tanner, the Rodents and the Surfers don't have much importance to the plot. At least not until they destroy the weather machine. It's most likely a result of Brady and Mack interfering with the movie's plot, as since the Wet Side Story plot requires Lela and Tanner falling in love with each other rather than them, they had nothing to do, since the conflict of the movie fuels what they do. Alyssa (played by Piper Curda which of course the network hyped up) and Spencer also fall into this in Teen Beach 2. | |

Sequel Hook | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_6293c185 | comment |
Sequel Hook: After the ending credits, we see Lela, Tanner and the rest of their friends washed up on the beach in the real world. The announced sequel is said to have that exact plot. And a second hook is laid after the aforementioned reset button is hit - Lela and Mack still had a connection somehow. Camembert and Dr. Fusion starting to have a conversation on the fact that they're in a movie counts. | |

Gilligan Cut | |

Gilligan Cut: Mack and Brady are invited to a party that very night while they are at "Wet Side Story". Mack tells Brady they shouldn't go. Cut to that night at the party where both are wearing summer clothes. Lampshaded brilliantly because while time clearly passed for all the characters in the movie, no time passed for Mack and Brady and it was a literal cut for them. | |

Meaningful Echo | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_6bd689ca | comment |
Meaningful Echo: Mack's line "I'm Mack" is this, occurring in the middle of the first music number in and out of the movie within the movie. In the second movie, Mack and Brady reminisce about how they met when Brady talked up Wet Side Story to Mack and promised her a mango smoothie if she didn't enjoy it. After the Reset Button, they have the same exchange about Lela, Queen of the Beach (the new version of Wet Side Story), but with the roles reversed. The reprise of 'Meant to Be'' becomes a secondary running theme in both movies, as it's repeated more than you'd expect, especially in the second movie. | |

Bait-and-Switch: Mack and Brady forgetting each other initially leads viewers to believe that Lela and Tanner didn't make it back to their world, which meant Wet Side Story never existed, so Mack and Brady never wound up meeting each other. However, while it's true that Wet Side Story ceased to exist, it isn't because Lela and Tanner failed to make it back, but because after Lela made it back, she became the NEW star, effectively changing the movie, and subsequently changing history in the real world. | |

Medium Awareness: Dr. Fusion gains this after Mack tells him that he's a villain in a film, looking directly into the camera. The first movie zigzags this, with some of the characters, at times, looking like they're aware they're in a repeating cycle for the movie, know it, and they're just reenacting what they've done before, but then at other times they don't. | |

Giggles gets an understated moment near the end, when the bikers and surfers are going to rescue Mack and Brady. During this, Butchy says he's afraid of lighthouses, has a brief moment where they try to convince him, only to say he's suddenly gotten over it. They all cheer and rush forward, only for Butchy to carefully try and sneak away… and the apparently-not-so Dumb Blonde saw that coming, pushing him onward once he's caught. And Giggles does it again in the second movie, when Butchy is afraid of the ocean. | |

What Are Records?: Being a present-day non-hipster teenager, Mack has trouble operating a record player. Inverted in the stinger and the second movie. The 60s folks are utterly fascinated, and from time to time terrified, by 53 years worth of human development: water jets, parachute skiing, speedos, Segway, and especially Siri. Lela had trouble changing songs on Mack's iPhone, and the "technology confuses you huh?" comment is shot back at Lela from Mack. | |

Conforming OOC Moment: Mack spends a majority of the film trying to get out of the movie, and even sings an entire song about how much she hates being trapped in a musical. Despite this, she participates in "Like Me", cheerfully singing along like the others and not seeming phased by it, at odds with her motivation and characterization. note While she also joins in on "Meant To Be", she also had the ulterior motive of trying to get Tanner and Lela to fall in love. In this scene, no such excuse exists. | |

Literally Falling in Love: Something of a Running Gag. In the original story of Wet Side Story, Lela and Tanner fall in love with each other when Tanner catches Lela as she falls off the stage. They fall for Brady and Mack instead when this plot point is messed with, then we learn the plot is on its proper course again when Lela falls into Tanner's arms during their duet. Played with extensively in the sequel. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The Movie Within a Movie is a full-on Whole-Plot Reference to West Side Story. It's called Wet Side Story and primarily features a romance among two feuding gangs. The Stinger features a mohawk-sporting teen who has Justin Bieber as the background for his smartphone. "Surf Crazy" has a roll call sequence eerily reminiscent of "The Nicest Kids in Town". Coincidentally, Hairspray also took place in the 60's. All of the songs are very reminiscent of the 60s, but "Like Me" is especially Beach Boys-esque, especially in the opening. The movie seems to take a lot from a movie called "Beach Party:" The hangout was called "Big Daddy's." The bikers were called "The Rats," had similar jackets and logos, and the leader called everyone stupid. Teen Beach's "Crusin' for a Bruisin" sounds like the brief song "Surfin' and a-Singing." During Beach Party, the surfers had control of Big Daddy's and the bikers wanted it, just like in Wet Side Story. Brady finds Seacat playing a game where he shoots at some "angry birds" with a slingshot. Brady is amused at this unintentional reference. | |

Magical Profanity Filter: Alluded to in the second film. During the song "Silver Screen", Brady and Mack are telling Leia and Tanner about all the benefits of living in their movie universe rather than the real world, one of which includes automatically-bleeped swear words. As the first movie made it clear that there is some sort of magic going on to make things conform to the movie's reality, it's implied that this is literally the case for characters in the movieverse. | |

Reset Button: The ending to Teen Beach movie 2 When Lela and Tanner left on Brady's motorized surfboard, this got hit hard - the entire 53 years worth of history from the making of Wet Side Story up to this point, including the entire first movie and the majority of the second, is reset and rewritten. Wet Side Story was changed into Lela, Queen of the Beach, and Mack and Brady never really met. Although, Lela still had that Save the Beach bracelet Mack gave her with the flower from her necklace attached. Somehow the ladies still had a connection. Plus, while the movie is playing on the outside screen at Mack's fundraiser dance, Lela looks directly at Mack and winks at her. Possibly indicating that Lela can see what is happening in the real world every time her movie is shown. | |

Red Herring | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_dbca2c99 | comment |
Red Herring: Brady speculates that they were transported into the movie due to a weather based electrical phenomenon and that they have to use the lightning storm at the end of the movie to return to their world. it's actually the decal on the surfboard that was responsible for bringing them into the movie. This is figured out in the second movie when the decal is transferred to the motorised surfboard to send Lela and Tanner back into their movie. Checkoved by Mack's grandfather telling her that two generations of her family found their destiny on that surfboard and now it's her turn. | |

Water Is Dry | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_e03c50ef | comment |
Water Is Dry: For the Wet Side Story characters, and later for Mack and Brady. Subverted later in the second movie, when Tanner freaks out because his hair is beginning to get wet. | |

Flanderization | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_e5e6640b | comment |
Flanderization: While he wasn't exactly the smartest guy in the first film, the second one really emphasized Tanner's stupidity to a larger degree than the first movie. He's not any less nice than the first movie as this trope tends to make characters who're more stupid than the rest of the characters in something, but he doesn't have any moments of real depth that shows some hidden smarts like the first movie had. Though, since the first movie couldn't decide between whether he was supposed to be stupid or have hidden depths of genius, this might be a blessing in that it at least gave him a more consistent characterization for the screenwriters to work with. | |

Slumber Party: Lela and the biker girls have one near the middle of the movie, and Mack gets invited so she can tell her that Tanner is supposed to like her and not Brady. | |

Duet Bonding: Tanner and Lela both attempt to do this to Mack and Brady, respectively, without much success. They fare better when they try it with each other. | |

Brainless Beauty | |
| Teen Beach Movie / int_f26d5e66 | comment |
Brainless Beauty: Neither Tanner nor Lela seem to have much on their respective minds other than surfing/motorcycling and the opposite sex. The same is generally true of all the other characters in Wet Side Story, to a lesser extent. Subverted in Teen Beach 2 where Lela instantly understands calculus. Also applies to the original movie as this is a Call-Back to how Lela figures out how to destroy the weather machine. | |

Brick Joke: When the surfers cheerfully introduce themselves in “Surf Crazy�, Mack introduces herself rather boredly. When she introduces herself again in the final song “Surf’s Up�, she’s happy and content. | |
