Christing, are you kidding???? I was totally joking!!!

Nope! Check this out:


Musicals are definitely making their comeback!!

Since Zac Efron’s jump from High School Musical to Hairspray, Paramount has scooped him up for the musical remake of the 1984 film Footloose .

Per Variety, Zac, 19, will bring his musical-leading-man act as Ren McCormack, the rebellious newcomer (originally played by Kevin Bacon) in a town where dancing has been banned.

Director Kenny Ortega (High School Musical) is in negotiations to helm and choreograph.

as much as i liked the movie, im just not sure.

troy's solo on the golf course- COMPLETELY unnecissary! it just didnt fit for some reason

gabriella's voice annoyed me in the first one. too much helium or something i dont know. i have to agree with someone else: if i would here her giggle one more time, i think i woulda snapped!

i liked seeing more sharpay too! i was totaly not forseeing the whole troy/gabriella breakup to be a possibility so at the begining of the movie when they were being all cutesey all i can think of was "god, im going to go through this ENTIRE movie with the lovebirds!" i was soo glad the way the plot altered that idea.

my one problem with sharpay was she was kinda different from the first movie. like in the first one yeah we knew she was the drama queen and the school big shot, but i felt like she was even more, for lack of better words: "DADDY!" and overdone with the pink and small lapdogs. yea she was a brat in the first one, but in this one she seemed to be a different kind of brat.

is it just me or are both of the movies exactly the same though? think about it: in both movies there was a nice soft loving song that troy and gabriella sing, and then sharpay takes it and ups the tempo and makes it her own. then in the end, gabriella and troy sing a different song about flying away together forever and all there friends are out there pushing them together because everybody knows that troy and gabriella are perfect for eachother. both movies had a dance number somewhere in the middle that the basic moral was: try something nobody expects from you (stick to the status quo and i dont dance). and in both troy's dad pushes him into something else the whole movie, and then at the last second (right before they sing the fly away together forever song) he gives him the moral of the story wich in both cases is "be yourself. whoever that may be."

i liked "were all in this together" better than "all for one"

not only that but Zac is slated to be in a movie called Seventeen (kinda like Big except in reverse), and he also has be rumoured to be in a movie called Orsen Wells and Me (take place in the 1930s)......and Disney is probably strongly negotiating with all the stars to cash in on HSM3 for theaters.....sounds like he's one busy guy, but still quite level headed from what i can tell (no Lohan, Spears, or Hilton epidemic)
