Ally vs. Hannah


Ally Dawson vs. Hannah Montana. They are both musicians but why Disney didn't promote Ally the way they promoted Hannah? I mean I still can buy sooooo many Hannah Montana things but nothing about Ally except Austin & Ally's soundtrack CD .. They only made 2 CDs, a calendar and a journal and that's it. Hannah has a whole section of her .. From DVDs to school accessories, electronic devices, clothes, shoes, books ...etc just search online and you will be amazed !

I really feel sorry that this show is ending and no one will remember it the way people remembers Hannah ....even my older brothers who know nothing about Disney know Hannah LOL.

They also made an EP "Take it From the Top". I think Shake It Up was given the same treatment in terms of the amount of merchandise they had.

Except Miley Cyrus, as vulgar as she is nowadays, has talent. She can act, sing, and dance. Laura Marano has no talent whatsoever. I'm surprised so many people actually find this talentless hack talented. Oh, and her show is awful, to whereas Hannah Montana is one of Disney Channel's finest.

Miley Cyrus has NO talent. She can NOT sing. Her voice is autotuned in the recording studio. I've heard her sing live and she sounded NOTHING like she does on disk

What an epic comment of delusion and stupidity.

Your argument is irrelevant. Anyone who's a fan of Zendaya and says Miley Cyrus "has NO talent" is irrelevant. "Can't sing", lol.
Miley's worst live vocal performance was still the "Just Stand Up" performance, and even then, she still wasn't that bad, as least not as bad as some people say. It's still better than ANY of Laura Marano's recordings. And even if you think Miley isn't a good singer, she's still a hell of a lot better as an actress and dancer than talentless Laura. THIS (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sgjHlF84Yc) is still 100 times better than this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFcZ_qyBIcQ). *shudders*
Also, not singing a song 100% the way it was in the studio while singing live is invalid. Whitney Houston rarely sang anything live the same way she sang it in the studio, and she's regarded as a legendary vocalist. Try again.

Miley is doesn't do it for me When I heard her sing live it was horrible.She can't act neither. Now I imagine she's

anice
person, but that's itI've never actually heard Laura sing so I cant' comment.

I like the older music, you know the stuff like Motown(TEmpations, four Tops TheMiracles, and Carolina Beach Music, and '60's bubblegum.

They had REAL singers back then. I won't listen to anything beyond the early to mid '90's That's my cut off date.

I like '50's, sixties, seventies, eighties and early ninties. That's the stuff I grew up with. Just don't like todays 21st century music.

There's a huge difference between not liking someone's voice and music and straight-up saying that person can't sing. Learn it.

Miley is a talented singer and decent dancer, but her acting was mediocre at her very best. She wasn't the very worst, but she wasn't any particularly good, which was proven in her show and The Last Song.

Oh, and her show is awful, to whereas Hannah Montana is one of Disney Channel's finest.

Don't take this the wrong way, but considering how you're labeling Hannah Montana as superior, I've always considered it and Austin & Ally to be almost equal. Not only by their components (having a similar premise), but in tone, too. For all the faults of Hannah Montana (the premise and the show), it used to be a genuine guilty pleasure of mine and only Austin & Ally has brought almost the same tone and feel that it had.

Not sure if I agree with this. Disney Channel scripts (at least at the time) required the actors to be funny, and Miley always nailed it when it came to comedy, back then and now. She did decently well during the dramatic or serious scenes on Hannah Montana, as well. Plus, Miley's onscreen charisma is off the charts.
At the very least, Miley Cyrus is an excellent comedic actress.
Laura Marano isn't funny in the slightest (not even a little bit), and she turns every serious scene she's in into a joke (not that she had good or decent actors to work with *cough*Ross Lynch*cough*, but still). Not to mention her complete lack of charisma.

I agree with you on her The Last Song performance, but there were two scenes that stood out to me: the hospital scene when Ronnie gets mad and cries at her dad's sickness, and the scene after she plays the piano and starts crying because her father dies. She did excellent in those two scenes.

not really. miley had comedic timing, yet she was not particularly skilled actress by the slightest. of course disney channel shows requires overacting, but that doesn't necessarily makes you a good actor.
and frankly, everyone raves about miley's charisma, but i can't see it. she does have a certain "it" factor, but she lacks charisma.

i agree that laura marano completely lacks any charisma or appeal, yet ross lynch was the very worst actor on the show. the thing which redeemed him was his looks, his on-stage charisma and appeal to a certain demographic, yet he was a bad actor. laura was the least charismatic of the main cast, yet she wasn't completely obnoxious either (as calum worthy, cough)

it's been a while since i've seen the last song, so i shan't really say so much about it. yet the majority of miley's acting in that movie was mediocre, especially in the scene where she scolds will for his secret.

reply

lol! mangusplin! miley was a mediocre actress and it was well known! to call her a excellent comedic actress is to throw salt into a injury! she was not the very worst, but far from the best. and that's a fact.

reply

i find it funny how you trash austin and ally at the expense of hannah montana, when they're both almost identical in tone and content, as one other user previously cited. tone-wise there's little to differentiate them.

reply

And look @ "Vilely Virus" now singing about putting the cock in the pussy, Not giving a *beep* & acting like a whore. Maybe it's better for Laura Marano if she isn't as talented that way Disney won't overboard with the goody goody Disney girl stuff & she can branch out on her own & find something that fits her.

reply

I prefer Laura Marano to that nasty Miley Cyrus. And I don't think Laura is talentless. I love Austin & Ally and can't wait to hear her new music.

reply

Laura acts more like a lady & actually respects herself. And uses her talents for good & not in a trashy form like Miley. Laura >>> Miley. Any day.

reply

"Talents"

reply

Yeah! I can't stand that Miley Virus either. Give me Laura and Dove any-day.
Laura and Dove>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Miley

reply

Laura. Not alaura. I made a mistake there.
Laura and Dove>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Miley Any day

reply

Laura didn't want to sign with Hollywood Records.

"I guess it never hurts to 'shake it up'."

reply

IMO I don't think Laura as Ally was intended to be a challenger to Hannah Montana. When the show first started it was just Austin with the dream to be a pop star--and because Ross Lynch was also a member of his band R5, he and the band were the ones that received more attention as musicians. Ally's journey to also becoming a pop star seemed more like a character arc over the span of the series. Unless she really took off as a singer with the public, I'm not sure Laura was going to be promoted as much as Ross or Miley. Plus music-themed shows are not as big a thing at the moment. Perhaps Disney decided to limit their merchandising.

I personally think Laura's future is acting over singing, and I hope she and Ross will do well in whatever they do after Austin & Ally.

reply

From what I recall, Laura was writing songs before Austin & Ally, and probably has some contractual obligation to do a few more acting roles before concentrating mainly on her music.

reply

Laura has an acting cameo in the new Alvin and the Chipmunks movie, "The Road Chip."

reply

Well the same can be said about ANY character/tv show after Hannah Montana. Still can't find Shake It Up panties even to this day!

They stopped making a ton of different stuff from their shows after Hannah Montana was done.

Oh and don't forget Disney made Hannah Montana REAL!
