Trivia

Charles Klapow:  The main choreographer can be seen in almost every dance sequence with a long, dark mohawk. In "What Time Is It?", he is in the basketball dance, and he does a handshake with Troy before he sings, and is wearing a red short-sleeved shirt over a white long-sleeved shirt. In "Work This Out" he is in a green Lava Springs shirt and work pants, in the middle of the three men with pepper grinders, during "Everyday" he is wearing a silver vest over a pink shirt who dances across the line crossing paths with Martha, and in "All For One" he is wearing a blue deigo tee with red trim, seen dancing with a girl in yellow during the choreography, and with Miley Cyrus.

The greatest movie of all time! For people in comas.
30 August 2007 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I saw the first High School Musical just after it came out hearing rave reviews and i thought it might be at least interesting. I was wrong, after about 40 mins of watching I would have rather ripped off my own ears and set them on fire than watch for another minute. I had absolutely no intention of watching this sequel but I was asked to by my sister on her birthday so I did. If I had poison handy I would have taken it without a second's hesitation. It was literally the worst "movie" I have ever seen. Don;t get me wrong I enjoy musicals very much, this had the worst songs and most obvious lip-syncing I have ever seen. The dance moves were similar to what you might expect from some backup dancer for Jessica Simpson. What I hate more than this movie (if that's even possible) is the fans. The true fans are the most moronic people I have ever met. Using no logic to backup their arguments of why this movie was so amazing other than 'OMG How can you say High School Musical sucked?? Zac Efron is lyke so kute! I just wanna hug him forever!' I could care less how cute an actor is that does not excuse the horrible monstrous atrocity that is High School Musical! Please for your sake DO NOT SEE THIS MOVIE!
