Zapping Zone is the second original Disney Channel Latin American production aired currently, along with Disney Planet.
"O Maravilhoso Mundo de Disney" (Wonderful World of Disney") is the block after the Zapping Zone where different Walt Disney Pictures are aired. The block is dispensable, so it is used when specials need to be aired. In normal seasons from Monday to Thursday it is aired after the Zapping Zone, and on Fridays it is replaced with "Película Disney Channel"/"Filme Disney Channel" (Disney Channel Movie) and it's aired after this(but regular films air during the mornings every weekday). The early-afternoon weekday movie block is named Cool After School. On weekends, an all-day movie block named Cine Mágico (Magic Theater) is aired. Movies can occasionally be aired on the early morning hours as part of the Playhouse Disney block.
In winter and summer specials, it also airs at noon. Most movies airing on Disney Channel usually run in the 95 to 105-minute range, promos included.
Because of this, Disney airs programming following the film:
"Filme Disney Channel" (Disney Channel Movie) is a movie block aired on Fridays after Zapping Zone, Saturdays, Thursdays and sometimes any other weekday after Wonderful World of Disney. In this block, Disney Channel Original Movies aire aired. In the last years, the Original Movies had increased its popularity in the region, bringing many viewers on its premiere dates. The Disney Channel Original Movies usually premiere on Sunday, but some had premiered on Friday. Some very successful Disney Channel Original Movies include The Cheetah Girls 2, Jump In!, High School Musical, High School Musical 2 and Camp Rock.
The highest rated original movie in Latin America was High School Musical 2 with 3.3 million viewers
"Mouse, Câmara, Ação!" (Mouse, Camera, Action!) its a event aired once a month where viewes can vote between three different movies, and the winner is aired at the end of the month. The viewes can vote in the website or via the cellphones At Home or Work.
In July, 2008 Disney Latin America updated "Disney Mobile" to Disney Mobile Studios where different services are available in all Latin America. The users can download content from Disney Channel, Disney XD, Playhouse Disney Channel, Radio Disney and content from movies.
