Rewatching High School Musical: A Brief, Disjointed Recap
This is a pretty random snapshot of my thoughts after watching High School Musical for the first time in years, arranged in no particular order:
Chad. Chad, darling. Even if I hadn't been slashing you with Ryan lately, your sparkles would still be showing. Seriously hon, off the charts.
Speaking of Ryan, I love you. I love that a lot of the time you're this vapid yet genuinely nice guy - it's kind of amazing. And your inappropriate romance with your sister, honey, I think we need to find you a nice boy (see above) before this gets too weird.
Also: RYAN'S HIPS DON'T LIE. I MEAN DAMN.
While we're on the subject of Characters I Love, Kelsi, sweetheart. You are my new favorite little lesbian, and homygod you are so adorable <333. That tux. That sexual tension with Sharpay. I LOVE IT.
(Didn't they kind of try to pair Ryan and Kelsi up at the end of HSM3? I didn't see it, but that's what I've heard. Anyways, yeah, that'd be pretty cute, if either of them was at ALL straight. Okay, maybe Kelsi's a little bisexual, I don't know, but Ryan? NICE TRY GUYS)
AHAHAHAHA GETCHA HEAD IN THE GAME
IT IS EVEN MORE HILARIOUS THAN I REMEMBER
THE DRAMATIC BRIDGE
THE WEIRD TRIBAL CIRCLE-DANCING
It isn't Newsies, but it's still damn amusing. XD
Wait, Stick to the Status Quo is actually really catchy. ALSO: TABLE DANCING
I GIVE THIS SCENE AN A+
Daaaaamn Vanessa Hudgens, way to make me even more excited to see Sucker Punch. *stares*
ZEFRON
ZEFFFFFRONNNNNNNN
Oh my god. What Chad says to Troy in the one scene...that is straight-up emotional manipulation. Completely not cool. At least he redeems himself pretty soon after that. (And now I have all these weird theories about how Chad is sports-world Sharpay, and how that connects to his relationship with Ryan, and OH MY GOD I AM SO FAR GONE.)
Taylor. Is it weird that I used to be okay with Taylor, because she was smart and female and all, but now she's just SO ANNOYING? I mean, Sharpay is obnoxious to the point of absurdity, but she's also *hilarious*. I never noticed before, but her delivery is just spot-on. Taylor, on the other hand...I think it's that she takes herself so seriously, and it's over-the-top and ridiculous but it doesn't have that edge of comedy. It's just...over-the-top and ridiculous. I think I find literally every single character endearing - even Troy and Gabriella, a little bit - except for Taylor.
WE'RE AAAAALL IN THIS TOGETHER *clap*
THIS MOVIE IS THE BOMB, I DON'T KNOW WHY I THOUGHT IT WAS SO ANNOYING
I'm going to have to watch the sequels now.
