Zac Efron ate my baby

It's a metaphor. It should ONLY freak you out. Because it only means one thing...

Apparently... They are making another High School Musical (gah, this series has such a lazy title). HSM4 will be released on television like the first two HSM's. I figure it's just a sign of the economy... But hey, no longer can Disney steal $42mil from a movie like Saw V (which shouldn't have stolen $30mil from Synecdoche, New York) at the box office. Thank goodness, because seeing the posters for HSM3 when walking through the lobby of the theater was hard enough. I'd rather fall ill to Yellow Fever than see Corbin Bleu less than 3 inches away from Zac Efron (even if it is on a poster where they're inanimate).
So, the next installment doesn't have much of a plot, BUT the producers did say that it would focus on a "love triangle set against the crosstown school rivalry between the East High Wildcats and the West High Knights."...Really? First off, I thought High School Musical 3 was "Graduation". Second off, East High and West High? I could ask my unborn child for two better high school names. And last off, how long are people going to watch these movies?!?! Do you think that Disney is really going to invent any sort of new elements for the "love triangle" idea? No. Are these kids ever going to leave school? No. Will Zac Efron ever come out of the closet? No. It succeeds because kids dig old kids. With these movies being musicals, story won't matter to the kids.

So, I leave you with my favorite clip from High School Musical. I can't believe that rarely anybody talks about it. =D
