To call 'Stick to the Status Quo': "cute and basic" is truly heartbreaking and disparaging. Nick, I have stood by you throughout this journey but it's today we part. 'Stick to the Status Quo' was truly ground breaking. The complexities on social politics and the greater commentary on the limitations of society far outstretch and go beyond the cafeteria. I agree, that Sharpay's better song existed in HSM 2, but to call Status Quo CUTE AND BASIC is just unforgivable. Please reconsider your stance if you have any self respect or loyalties to these movies.

[@naurarri]

Haley Justino she just wants to spent time with troy, and yes she is wrong to do that. She tried to seperated Troy from his girlfriend and friends, which is wrong. But she's no evil. If she's evil, she would not accept the ending, she would feel rage. Her ego was showing, but she realises it in the end. She's just a human being who did somehing wrong.

[@TheNerdySimulation]

I can't believe I am about to write this, but... I think the part where Chad and Ryan switch clothes is meant to be a representation of them coming to understand one another's perspective better, now seeing the appeal of what the other is talking about and coming to terms with the fact that they aren't actually that different from one another, even though that whole scene essentially starts with them "at war" with one another.

3 is the best. Troy’s character arc is the most relateable than any other character arc in the series. He wants go enjoy the last bits of high school he has left and make tons of memories with his friends. He was also super conflicted on where to go to school and what to go to school for. He was also concerned with how his relationship with Gabriella was going to look post high school. Most high schoolers deal with at least one of those issues, or multiple.

Okay but they straight up duped Sharpay at the end. They were cruel to her. She got Troy, and even all his pals a job. She doesnt know how to relate or communicate with him, but this movie showed that he does not even care to empathize with her. She believes she is about to sing on stage with him and Gabriella comes out of nowhere, everyone on board with the sound equipment (ie the cast) and they are so so so cruel to her. All despite the fact that she hasn’t done anything mean or vindictive yet. And they all sabotage the only thing she cared about all summer. And the worst part is that she sings along in the background just so that the movie can close.

[@jpmakestunes]

I've always advocated HSM2 as the best one and the main reason why people tend to disagree is because it doesn't actually take place in their high school with the exception of the first number. The thing about high school, though, is that it's more than just a place--it's a 4-year period of our lives; it's a mindset; it's an attitude. All of the conflicts portrayed in each of the movies speak truth to the high school experience, and while HSM2 doesn't take place at East High, summers for any high schooler have definitely always been an integral part of the high school experience. HSM2 is a testament to how summer can test even the strongest relationships in high school; will you make time to be with your friends, teammates, and significant other, or will you put them aside while you seek opportunities for yourself? If that sounds like it's hella juvenile, that's because it is; again, this is high school we're talking about, which is probably when people reach maximum pettiness. Anyway, that's enough for a 2:30AM rant. Awesome video; you were right on the money in explaining why HSM2 reigns as the best in the series! (However I will dispute your claim of Fabulous being the best "Sharpay song" in the series. That title goes to I Want It All from HSM3; that number is literally Fabulous on steroids.)

3 is only getting points because Daddy Efron was kicking in ❤️💀💀

[@Listentonay]

the second movie was always everyone s favorite. i love the high saturation filter that made troys eyes look so blue

[@AnaIMM1]

I love that you pointed out that after the scene in "I Don't Dance" Chad and Ryan switched clothes, like, they're just a couple of guys being dudes right? But I also love that it was never explained tho, it's like they just banged after the song and that's it.

[@PredatorH2O]

Ana Isabel Mavarez It just might be a sign that they came to an agreement. p.s. It's your fault if this sentence made any other sense than what it was supposed to.

[@anesianyia9059]

Tell me how I knew exactly which "Troy" quote he used 😂😂😂

[@JosephButso]

I honestly thought it was the iconic TRRROOOYYY from. HSM3 at first lol

[@tonaain]

FOR YEARS i've told people the second is the best one but no one ever agreed with me, so THANK YOU for this masterpiece

[@Sophibear777]

The day my childhood died was when I was little and I watched a high school musical live performance movie with all of the original actors except Troy Bolton was some random bro.

[@Kenzaaa123]

Drew seeley?

[@jackydorado99]

I really love senior year more than the second one because it’s more relatable (in my opinion). The fact that it’s their senior year and they have HUGE decisions to make is extremely relatable to hs/college students. Their last game, prom, last musical!!! Beautiful musical moments and choreography as well as knowing that this is the end for the wildcats

[@JosephButso]

Welcome to the unpopular opinion club! 3 to me..for the reasons u mentioned just steals my heart! And I can till this day continuously watch it and it not get old!

[@daphnegrace64]

This is the best film analysis I've ever watched. Ever.

[@MovieFlame]

Fantastic video man

[@iloveyouPOPOY]

MovieFlame I see you morgan! 👀

[@thenumberoneyoungthug7477]

MovieFlame without a comma, it sounds like you’re calling Nick a “fantastic video man,” and I have absolutely no issue with that.

[@Razzanonymous]

Just me or does the intro sound like someone is getting pounded from behind yelling, "Summer!"

[@kevinmaguire1686]

I was watching this and my sister who is 18 came into my room and went "He's right you know"

[@maddylovesbooks]

The summer after this came out I was in my 3rd to last year of elementary school and legit we counted the clock a mimute till the bell rang on the last day and when it did we through our paper in the air lmao. Best childhood moment tbh

[@rachelkimpanga8043]

is this for real???😭

[@skinni_the_P00hBear]

My teachers would've kept us behind even after the buses came, to clean all that up. Would've been walking home, all 25 of us 🤣

[@ninutsa]

This is actual art.

[@westworlds]

Excuse me, sir, are we not going to address B R EA K I N G F R E E??????? I agree HSM2 is the best, but Breaking Free is the romantic power ballad to end all ballads.

[@alexangel4758]

olivia martinez UHM EXCUSE ME DO YOU EVEN LIZZIE MCGUIRE

[@umnia4316]

Alex HEY NOW HEY NOW, what dreams are made of is an ICONIC power ballad of a young women finding confidence in herself, learning to love herself and cherishing the people most important to her - her friends, her family, and gordo ofc. Even though it starts off as a romantic duet, we all know paolo's lying bitch ass couldn't carry a tune to save his life. Thus, what dreams are made of is iconic but Breaking Free is still the *romantic* power ballad to end all ballads. thank u for coming to my ted talk

[@lazycloud33]

When I was seven I legit cried during Gotta Go My Own Way. Highschool Musical was my shit in elementary school.

[@ankitak7574]

I was 16 and I did too 😂

[@clemencina]

the songs were written before they cast zac so the parts that were too high for him he didn't sing but he does sing other parts like in the beginning of breaking free

[@Laurenjoinsyoutube]

I honestly barely remember the 3rd one and when I mention High School Musical I’m always referring to the second one

[@logan-vd2sf]

same. i recently watched all 3 and i didnt remember any of the 1st or 3rd one but remembered every line of the 2nd

[@JosephButso]

Its so interesting how each movie speaks to each person differently I personally think the 3rd is BY FAR THE BEST! like no competition...but then I hear others say it is the worst nd explain their reasoning for why they like whichever ones they like I was 13, 15, and 16 respectively when the movies first came out and at tht time 3,2,1 was my order of greatest to least. Now at 28 and rewatching all 3 movies it goes 3,1,2. The maturity, chemistry b/t troy and Gabriella, nd the plot being the most relatable and realistic out of the 3 movies just really hits home 4 me! OH ND THE SOOOONGS!!! LOL U mind telling me a detailed reasoning 4 UR liking of 2..?? Of course only if u want to.^^

[@Ash-gc9rx]

But really though, why DID they switch clothes? Like you can't just make that mistake, you can just suddenly be in your costar's or friend's clothes and it's not even like Chad gave Ryan his jacket, the shirt underneath is sleeveless and next it has sleeves AND a collar. I am so puzzled

[@oof-rr5nf]

Ash in the trash They absolutely banged. It is canon. Because I said it's so.

[@sugarhoney01]

Ash in the trash (also sorry for ruining the comment chain) They definitely MEANT for them to swap clothes, probably to signify that they settled their differences, but it comes out pretty wrong

[@JJ4EVER9232011]

Ash in the trash Brendon!!

[@goodjobeli]

they fucked

[@PharaohMisa]

First of all, Bet On It IS a masterpiece and anyone who disagrees is a clorbag varblernek!

[@mitchierainbow7353]

Language!😅😏

[@cristinaflanagan5323]

BET ON IT IS NOW OUR ANTHEM. ALL HAIL BET ON IT. ALL HAIL BET ON IT!

[@seerpou]

I’m going to have to dispute this title because although #2 deserves all its merit both for excellent fresh choreography, capturing the essence of summer, #1 is a groundbreaking piece of art. I cannot name a more iconic scene than the opening karaoke scene. “Someday you guys might thank me for this.” Period.

[@FiorellaCalderonCardenas]

seerpou same

[@key9306]

okay but no one can change my mind about “can I have this dance” being the best song in the entire series

[@e-linamarie]

KZL now hold on buster

[@key9306]

Elina Marie I’ll hear you out but I will not be easily swayed

[@jessicawold]

KZL any song chad is in.

[@dani-xw3lc]

i think the best one is "I want it al" (in my opinion)

[@phillip8523]

I personally like scream... i know

[@i99suk54]

The best thing that came from HSM2 is the 5 minute scene between Chad and Ryan in “I don’t dance” Truly the best love song Disney has produced
