High School Musical
So, this is going to be a quick post, I think.
I just want to tell you a little story of what happened to me today.
Okay, nothing happened really but...
My friend and I were bored at home so we decided to watch High School Musical (which I own because my mom bought it for me before it was a hit and before I knew how awful it was.)
And I just want to let my opinions be known about this movie.
I think, and I'm referring only to the first movie, that it is cheesy, bad acting, and bad script.
I do think that the most of the songs are good (except always sung at moments and in ways that make them sound awfully corny) and that most of the choreography is amazing. Like the "Getcha head in the game" dance was super cool. (The song isn't that great (very Backstreet Boys), and when he stops and the spotlight goes on him...its beyond horrible.)
I think that if HSM were on Broadway, or on stage anywhere, it would be a 1000 times better than it is as a movie. As a movie, it is horrriibllyy corny. It is soo laughable. But many things that look good on stage, look horrible on film. Just imagine HSM with good actors (Zac Efron isn't awful, though) and on stage (where cheesy things look much less so.)
It would be okay. Possibly good.
Anyways, I just want to say that, in all honesty, I love this song:
Maybe its because it doesn't have any of the main, awful, characters like Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale.
But I actually think the song is very Hairspray-like and the choreography is really fun.
Anyway, just mah feelings. xD
