So in preparation for the much anticipated movie breakout, I decided to do my homework/research into why people like High School Musical so much. Having watched the sing along version of the first one and just sat through the second on this rainy day, I get it.
HSM is this generation's Grease (but way cornier). Perhaps I'm just jaded because I'm eons removed from high school and now thoroughly laden with life's realities post undergrad. But I totally get it, "We're all in this together..." la di da! It's catchy and what makes it worse, with my musical theater background I could TOTALLY do this! Hell the token black chick is older than me!
But all this is to say, I'd rather my little cousins' be subscribing to this and staying their age a little bit longer than Gossip Girl at 10. It is to them what Mickey Mouse Club and Kids Incorporated was to me (yeah that's right Fergie, I remember you as "Sarah" on Kids Inc.!). It's pure clean fun, and while the morals to the story are more predictable than words can say, watching Zac Efron dance alone on a golf course was entirely worth it (HSM2).
