Well the dancing was amazing. The lip-syncing was absolutely awful. At some points of the film, actresses' (:rolleyes:) would stop singing when the song was playing/or miss would stop miming before the note had finished. Aside from that it was v. good. The music from the 2nd film is clearly the strongest and probably cheesiest.

I went to see this today, it made me very happy.

Although yeah like Dan said the lip-sync was a joke. It made me LOL though.

 

And FFSARGH@people who actually CLAPPED at the end. What is this?

Chad/Corbin's face gave me erections though so it was alreet.

^The rocket man dude :lol:

I loved it when

he was performing with Sharpay

:rofl:

 

Haha...me and my sister were the only ones in the sister who burst out laughing when that happened :P And when the English girl started singing :rofl:

I almost cheered at the end of Now Or Never then realised noone else was so quickly shut my mouth before any noise came out :lol:

My friend who loves the series, saw it and said it was a pile of $h!t.

 

Atleast she came to her senses sooner rather then later. :kink:

I really wanted to clap at the end only cos (damn my drama teachers) at the end of the film they bowed out and stuff and its a courtesy to clap at the end of a production

 

Question - How badly did Monique Coleman want to cry at the end of the film :lol: You could see the tears in her eyes already :lol:

Haha I went to see it on opening night and at the end everyone (including me) was jumping up and down clapping.

And Sharpay was the highlight of the film I was in stitches

when she was singing with Rocketman and when she came down from the roof during Tiara's performance

 

This film is actually amaze :) I honestly can't believe that anyone could not like it :lol:

me too! there's so many haters around!! It's such a fun, positive film, I don't get why anyone wouldn't like it!!

What a silly post... :lol:, people will have what they feel are perfectly valid reasons for liking or disliking ANY film... There are certainly plenty of reasons not to like HSM (I'm talking more about the first one I must stress..) - the falseness, the annoying, saccharine-coated American-ness of it, the fact that it's all just totally OTT even by the standards of the Musical genre.... I will say it's all very professionally made, and it's slick (and certainly less embarrassing that the steaming pile of wannabe sh!te that is "Britannia High"), but it just leaves me cold tbh....

 

I've seen good musicals on stage and screen - "West Side Story", "Les Miserables", "Cabaret", "Chicago", "Bugsy Malone", "Moulin Rouge", "Blood Brothers", "Tommy", "Spamalot", "Wicked", "Grease"; all of which were pretty classy and well done..... But HSM for me is just absolute, lowest common denominator American rubbish..

Oh dear, bad editing then.... That's not really the fault of the actors.. That's deffo a fault in the sound editing process...

That's not really what i mean...but yeah....what i mean is that its so happy so everyone should like it haha

 

Everyone i know who's seen it...at least likes it :) Everyone who claims to hate it that i know hasn't even seen 5 minutes of it :lol: I was under the impression that i was gonna hate it before i accidently watched the first one :lol:

Went to see this a while back, forgot to post about it!

 

Immense film- Loved it. The soundtrack was brilliant.. The best being I Want It All

 

The highlight of the film for me was when Sharpay came down on the rope when Tiara was singing her song. Brilliant!

I DID actually subject myself the to first one just to see what all the fuss was about... Didn't like it. At all... I just dont respond well to this annoying, sugary, false, overly-American teen style at all... I disliked Beverley Hills 90210 and The OC for similar reasons.... I like things like Buffy the Vampire Slayer because that totally subverts stereotypes.. Apart from this, I think the only time I actually liked a show of this type was My So-Called Life, because it actually had the guts to at least attempt to portray a bit of reality, as well as being genuinely well acted. Needless to say, it didn't last very long.... :rolleyes:

It happens in the second movie as well. I think it's part of the fun of HSM, the bad editing/timing issues.

No, I would say it's a sign of incompetence tbh.... What director seriously wants their big-screen 'Musical bonanza' to be messed up with bits being out of synch...? Even as a supposed "joke"...? I know I wouldn't.. By releasing it in the cinema, surely they wanted a wider audience... Many people going to the cinema to see this probably didn't see the first two Disney Channel efforts (let's face it, it's hardly necessary, we aint exactly talking about The Godfather trilogy here are we...? LOL), so how would they know it's a "joke", all they're gonna see is a bad mistake with the sound editing....

 

I think for a big cinema release, mistakes of this nature are pretty bad, far worse than on TV where you dont really expect production values to be quite as good...

Much like Ridley Scott placing his Ferrari outside the Colosseum when filming Gladiator :lol:

OOOOOOHHHHHHH!!! That was a doozy that one..... :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

Again, though, that is a mistake which should've been caught at the editing stage... Very few directors actually edit their own films bear in mind....
