Having watched the day screening (where the audience probability are
There really is a difference.
Especially when it's a movie like High School Musical... well... or maybe, a musical in general, where i find not everyone appreciates the beauty of musicals.
So see, when i watch it with the younger crowd, we get lots of
Whereas when we watch it with the old(er) crowd... we get lots of burst of laughter whenever the characters started singing, as if they are treating the movie like a "comedy", and it's funny when characters suddenly started to sing.
It annoy me to no ends. I feel like standing on my seat and yelling at those people:
"THIS IS A BLOODY MUSICAL! GET OVER IT!"
Seriously! I don't get whats so funny when the actors started singing! IT'S A MUSICAL PEOPLE! If you think musicals are silly, why do you watch it in the first place? Don't you check what movie you're watching when you get the tickets? The title is so clear cut ok, High School MUSICAL? What, you don't attend spelling classes? Or you just don't understand what's a musical?
If maybe the first few times, i guess it's forgivable. But to laugh every time they started singing is just plain disrespectful for musical-goers like us. Unless if it was enacted in a funny way (like when Sophie first burst into the song in Mamma Mia!, it was really funny! So did a few other scenes!), but otherwise i don't understand why do you want to "laugh" when the songs starts.
Oh, and get this - the younger crowd doesn't even react when the song starts, but the older crowd starts laughing (a good majority of the audience) every time the actors so as open their mouth.
Seriously lar, what so funny honestly?
I'm so disappointed. And to think "older-people" would enjoy musicals more. PFFT!!
And some more especially 1980 babies who grow up in the time where cartoons frequently burst into songs all of a sudden (as compared to cartoons now where they focus more on animation)... so since we have a history with "musical cartoons", to think most of us would be more used to actors bursting out into songs... but no, it turns out younger kids appreciate those better than older people. (Not us, as much as we are 1980, we are more of with the younger crowd see?)
Ok, enough about "boring adults" (with no life).
ANYWAYS... HSM3 is a good movie, it's has good songs and BRILLIANT WONDERFUL dances! I actually find watching it a second time is even better than watching it the first time! It's so rare isn't it? For the third movie in an installment to be even better than the first two, and also to find that watching the movie a second time is even better than the first time! And only over such a short period of time (3 days to be exact)!
I really do love it, it kinda makes you wish your high school life was a musical too!
Kenny Ortega (and the staff of HSM3) are brilliant! The dances this time round are wonderful, i don't even know where to begin! I love every part of it! And so does the songs! EVERYTHING LAR!!
I'm still complaining about the lack of Ryan and Sharpay, but oh well, i guess i have to live with it! Just hope the DVD will have (at least) some extra scenes, hopefully!
Brilliant, really, BRILLIANT (^^ )!!
And yes, again, my favourite character are Ryan and Sharpay (and Troy because his hot, and Chad *just because* his Corbin Bleu)!!
