Disney Sing It: High School Musical 3: Senior Year

As it is the case for most Disney games, I'm assuming you're here because you're either a fan of HSM and actually want to read about this game or you're someone who smells blood in the water and wants to see me rip this title apart.

Sorry, trolls, this game's OK and the review's going to be more informative than destructive. Still, if you're looking for a cheap shot: why the hell are the guys so set against going to the prom in "A Night to Remember?" Don't they know that this is their best chance to get laid? Be excited, weirdoes.

Oscars rewind

Later on, a grand musical number meant to signify the return of the movie-musical began with a solo from Jackman. Soon, however, the stage filled with backup dancers and a few surprise celebrities. First, Beyoncé appeared from underneath the stage and sang a medley of songs with Jackman. They were then joined by the likes of Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens ( High School Musical 3) and Amanda Seyfried and Dominic Cooper ( Mamma Mia!), who helped them finish the number with bravado.

The rest of the show continued uphill, entertaining viewers with engaging montages of many films from the past year. I hope the 82nd Academy Awards is just as good next year, if not, the awards show might just lose its appeal.

High School Musical 3: Senior Year Extended Edition DVD Review

After having enormous success on the Disney Channel, the High School Musical franchise finally made its debut on the big screen with High School Musical 3: Senior Year. The film follows the Wildcats in their senior year as they deal with moving on from East High and going to college and leaving behind all of the memories that they have made over the past couple of years. The six main actors from the first two films also return along with director and choreographer Kenny Ortega. So, what’s different about this version of High School Musical, besides the fact that it was the first film released on the big screen? Well, it’s bigger, better, and features even more energy and life than the previous two films.

High School Musical 3: Senior Year opens up at half time of the Wildcats’ championship game against The West High Knights. The Wildcats are trailing with only sixteen minutes left in the game and they need a miracle in order to pull off a victory. They are led by Troy Bolton (Zac Efron) and Chad Danforth (Corbin Bleu). The team also features a young player by the name of Rocket Man, played by Matt Prokop. Troy also has the support of his girlfriend Gabriella, played by the lovely Vanessa Hudgens. Will the Wildcats be able to pull off the victory and cement their legacy as champions once again?

Come on, people, this is High School Musical we’re talking about here. I’m just glad that the film doesn’t end with a big basketball game and the big shot. Then we would really be following the movie clichés.

8 Reasons Why the Oscars Bombed This Year

Was it just me, or were the Oscars like the longest episode of "American Idol" ever? First, Ryan Seacrest interviewed all the contestants—oops, make that nominees—on the red carpet. Then, the stage was suspiciously similar to the circular "Idol" platform, and the live show began with a musical number from host Hugh Jackman. The first winner was announced by a panel, though unfortunately Paula Abdul wasn't on it. And at some point in the evening, Jackman appeared with Beyonce, Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens to cover a strange assortment of Broadway tunes.
That latter number was awfully schizophrenic, and it only made sense when we learned that it was directed by the king of excess himself, Baz Luhrmann. The flashy, uneven choreography summed up the entire evening. This year was the Academy's biggest push to make the Oscars young and more relevant. Too bad they failed, even worse than when they tapped Jon Stewart as host. Throughout the telecast, my BlackBerry buzzed with messages from friends, all in their 20s, about how un-hip and un-young and unwatchable the Oscars felt.

A FOURTH instalment of the teenage hit High School Musical will hit TV screens next year but it won't feature its two stars Zac Efron and his real-life girlfriend, Vanessa Hudgens.

A Disney studio statement last night said High School Musical 4 will feature a love triangle "set against the cross-town rivalry between the East High Wildcats and West High Knights."
