With Diana away “doing research” at Disneyland, the crew gets real about their mixed feelings on the sequel. From missing villains to weak songs and bat-demons underwater, they dig into what worked, what flopped, and what left them scratching their heads. They also pitch their own better plotlines, question the accents, and talk dream shapeshifting animals and ultimate Disney vacations.
