Box office performance

On Disney Channel Asia the movie was sped up by about 2-3 minutes making the movie only about 72 minutes.

Because of this the voices came out high pitched and mildly distorted. They did not speed up the movie in America though, they left it in its full 74 minute form, with the exception of the scene with Miley Ray and her father in the car being cut out for content due to controversy over them not wearing their seat belts. The 74 min 3D film had its basic cable premiere in 3D on July 26, 2008 on Disney Channel, Family (Canada) at 8:00 pm and again at 9:30 pm.
