Question about HSM 2: shouldn't Troy have been at basketball camp or be doing something else to get him noticed by college scouts/coaches? He told Gabriella that unless he got a basketball scholarship, he would have to pay for college himself, right? So that's why he wanted that summer job? It was basically a fluke that he made basketball connections at the country club at his summer job.

Crap, I've watched AtU more than AoU. Maybe that's why I hate AtU more.

I must hate it the most, because I knew you were referring to AoU. It has problems, but still better than AtU.

Serious question, is this something normal people give as gifts to their significant others? If you had a give an initial/monogram gift, shouldn't it be for their name?

I mean, I liked the first HSM by a hair. At least I still have "We're All in this Together" stuck in my head. The sequel didn't have any memorable songs. Dat hat game weak too.

Yes, he sings in the second one. Not too bad, I would say.

I cackled so hard.

Sharpay rhymes with Tay Tay, right?

No, I didn't get the sense that Sharpay was "popular." She's naturally bossy and an egomaniac and everyone else is too nice or lazy to set her straight, I think.

Guys, what's your favorite hat from HSM?

I totally agree! I liked the hip hop girl from this song and after a little bit of Googling, found this:

Regarding Troy's parents, the father is married IRL to Louise Guzman from Teen Witch! It was annoying that we never got to see Troy's mother again after NYE, but it was more annoying that they stuck her in some dowdy mother-of-the-bride dress for the party.

Social identity and crowd psychology, bro. Well, for Chad, anyway. Chad doesn't want Troy, the coolest kid in the basketball team, to suddenly change groups and participate in the musical, because Chad is a non-member of that group. It's like if the antagonist in your farting movie didn't want his friend to fart and burp.

It killed me that they made her into a villain. She's Cassie from A Chorus Line, one of the most awesomely awful movie musicals ever.

Go for it! So, they mentioned there was free period. I wonder if he skipped free period basketball practice to sneak off to bake something? Also, I kept thinking that in a few years, they're gonna find out that baking is "cool." In addition, I felt like each group kind of devalued/looked down on other groups. If you're in the academic decathlon, you shouldn't waste your time with the arts - you should be studying 24/7. If you're on the basketball team, you can't participate in a sissy activity. As for Sharpay and her theater group, I'm sure they don't want jocks and nerds ruining the musical. The problem is, real high school isn't like that. I feel like the filmmakers took every high school trope and included them into the movie.

Happy belated birthday, btw. Hope you're having a wonderful birthday weekend.

Omg popcorn, stop eating yourself!

I would pick Paul too. Paul F Tompkins, that is.

It cracks me up that Paul just assumes that kateacola will go along with marrying him.

Be nice. She doesn't know what love is.

I wish JammerLea had designed one too.

She's the Tayonce of the group. Loved her in Taymonade.
