I had some friends over for the PACQUIAO fight, and I made them stay until dinner time so we can watch this together. Because I didn't want to try out the dance steps alone.

You heard me.

Whoa!

Vanessa Anne Hudgens ("Gabriella") is Pinay! Her mom is "Gina Guangco"!

I guess after Miss Saigon, Pinays really did take over the musical genre.

singing: "let me dance for you..." LOL...

this one is directed by choreographer kenny ortega.

the soundtrack's pretty cool too. favorite songs are: "start of something new", "we're all in this together" and "breaking free".

Kenny Ortega has an Emmy nomination for directing.

Breaking Free and Getcha Head in the Game were the songs nominated for original song.

My Kids are so into this TV Movie that I have to bring in the DVD from the States!

I was really surprised that my 3 kids (11, 7 and 4) all know the lyrics of the songs especially when they watched the premier telecast on Disney several weeks back.

Looking forward to buying the soundtrack when its available locally

It's already available locally.

I saw dozens of copies at O in Rockwell last Saturday. It's locally pressed - Php 395 for the 2-Disc Special Edition Enhanced CD (with karaoke disc):

"We're all in this together... Once we know... That we are... We're all stars... And we see that..."

My recent PLDT DSL problems made me revisit some of the shows I have on hand that I hadn't found time to watch. I decided to finally watch some "Summerland."

Boy, Zac Efron definitely found a BRILLIANT orthodontist between doing that show and doing "High School Musical."

It's the last track in the first disc.

I should be too old for this....but I enjoyed every second of the film. The song numbers are so entertaining that I can't get them out of my head. I'm almost embarrassed to admit that I bought the DVD as well.

BTW, the soundtrack is currently the biggest selling album of 2006, already 3 times platinum. And it's still in the top 10 albums list on Billboard, six months after it was released. The DVD is breaking sales records as well. This is truly a pop culture phenomenon.

Never underestimate the power of pre-teens who don't know any better.

Watched this last Saturday with my wife and daughter. After watching it, it's inevitable to compare it with the movie. Well, for one thing, the movie's better. The actors were really amateurish and didn't sing quite well (lots of flats and sharps). Nevertheless, my daughter enjoyed it since she knows most of the songs in it.

the guy who plays troy in the local stage version looks hella OLD... too OLD to be believable as a high school kid. LOL.

Actually, have you seen Zac Efron's Hairspray pictures?

And this is how he looked in the project he filmed before HSM2.

That's what you get for waiting too long before you shoot the sequel to a pop culture phenomenon that's set in high school.

SPaCeMaN SPiFF · « **Reply #47 on:** Feb 27, 2007 at 11:21 PM »

LOL... he looks a lot older alright.

and... OMG! is that ricki lake's long lost younger sister?!

That would be Andrew Seeley, Spiff.

I just saw excerpts from High School Musical: The Concert (So sue me). Good to see that Seeley finally got a little recognition for his work on the top-selling soundtrack, as he was the one performing with the rest of the cast instead of Efron. I suppose the tickets and posters made it very clear he'd be the one in the concert, since I think most tweens would be pretty disappointed/angry to see the lead of the movie was suddenly being played by someone else, otherwise.

Bwahahaha!

(LOL)

When I showed the discs to my kids when I got home, their reaction was:

"Hmmp, sawa na ako diyan"

After I changed to my houseclothes, naisalang na nila and they started watching it. "Sawa" na kasi sila.
