LET'S WATCH: High School Musical 2

What’s up y’all, I hope everybody’s having a good weekend. As promised here is the second high school musical film with my incredibly intelligent commentary in the left-hand corner. What if we had a whole station on the TV where it was just everyday programming but a little me in the corner lol probably get canceled after season one. But hey, I’m glad y’all enjoyed these videos. It was pretty fun watching this one even though I had some confusing plot questions. Maybe you guys can help me clear those up in the comments. Thanks for watching and I’ll see you in the next one for number three next week.

LET'S WATCH: High School Musical 2

Comments

PLEASE

ivy

when bro said "pirouette" about ryan leaping, i wheezed

Calli f.

“appropriating fish culture” that one friend who’s too woke smh 🤦🏽‍♀️

z

The mom was in the first scene in the first movie

Tatiana Hernandez

Me saying "human centipede" right before you said it will forever crack me up

SocksNSandles

I third this

AJ

I think the reason the door to the kitchen is right by the room with the piano is because the rest of the room “behind the camera” is actually a dining room so kelsi can play during dining hours. The door is probably for wait staff to bring food in and out of the kitchen and dining room.

Izzy Johnson

the i dont dance scene reminds me so much of the Savannah Bananas baseball team. If you have not seen them yet, highly suggest watching one of their games! too funny lol

Amber G

RIGHT RIGHT🥺🥹

L

I second this

Taylor

Can you PLEASE react to Hairspray?😭🥺

L

being forced to watch the “T as in Troy” scene 7 times was a real treat

Harry Weaver

I LOVE the fact that they spelled Kelsi correctly ;)

Kelsi Smirlies

I don't think the plot was so much "Troy can't take the scholarship and should only focus on his friends cause friends are everything!", I think the issue was more focused on HOW Troy was going about it. Spreading himself too thin, never saying no, treating his friends almost like employees (although not always his fault in that case but the scene where he pushes off Chad because he wanted a different kind of cheese gave that message). Although he was saying yes to great opportunities, he was always being backed into a corner to saying yes to everything Sharpay wanted that he didn't have to do, like performing with her. He also kind of did say no so many times saying he didn't want to perform, but she then asked him at dinner in front of everyone clearly on purpose so that he said yes. I think people defend Sharpay saying "she got him so many opportunities she really cares about him!", but they are all for her own benefit. Performing a song with Troy is not giving him an opportunity. Scholarship people do not need to watch him sing on stage lmao, she wanted to get close to him. It was clearly for her. Like when her and Gabriella were arguing, Sharpay goes "you're just mad that I won". All Sharpay has done the first two movies is have a one sided competition with Gabriella. And like Gabriella said, "what's the prize, Troy?" Although Sharpay is iconic I fear people defend her a bit too much because of that. I agree the ending feels a little confusing, they could've made it more clear how things were planned and why.

cass

Dang he didn’t realize Chad and Ryan swapped outfits after the baseball game 😭

Elle

You have permission to rawr

Tyler G

I’d love to watch you react to glee but if you wanna stay in the tv movie era then 10000% cheeta girls, lemonade mouth, starstruck and camp rock 2 as you’ve done the 1st camp rock by the time I’m writing this 😂

Meg

i'm so glad you got the miley cameo the first time around!

Nicole Valente

All of them!

Natasha Wright

Plzzzz watch descendants Kenny did those movies too

Samiyah Bolton

The NOLAN level of analysis is hilarious 😂

drei.cipher

Yvonne Ruiz

Or Julie and the phantoms!

Jayden Thieman

If u like Kenny ortegas work, try watching the decendants movies !

Yvonne Ruiz

omg yes!!!

Angee Mai

the everyday song was rehearsed with Ryan instead of troy lol they just changed it last minute so troy sings ryan’s part i belive :D

Angee Mai

Please react to the descendants movies!!

Alizzia Schulte

i will always wonder how gabriella got the 'T' necklace back when she gave it back to troy when she left during 'gotta go my own way' and you'd assume they hadn't seen each other since then

Ash

PLEASE react to Teen Beach Movie!!!!

Grace

i cannot believe i’m learning new hsm facts in this day and age - this is amazing

maichi

@ 1:02 you don’t know the rage i felt as I preteen watching this bro get ready

Susie Nicolaysen

and the peanut butter and jelly sandwich!!

daisy allen

the way he was ignoring troy and gabriella constantly looking at and moving the sheet music around so they can know the lyrics to the song LOL 😭😭

daisy allen

i dont dance is commonly recognised as THE most homoerotic musical number in this series. and the fact chad and ryan switched outfits afterwards ...... WHICH COULD MEAN NOTHING .....!

jordan

WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU FKING NERD!!! 😂

Ali

Yes that's one of my fave details

Isa

The mom (Mrs. Bolton) actually isn’t a new character she was in the very beginning of the first movie. Trying to get the Boys to go to the New Year’s Eve party.

Kendra Doty

Troy does know about Disney channel kissing bait lmao

Danielle Hammond

can you PLS watch glee.

Angelina C

you need to do the cheetah girls as your next trilogy. bops on bops

kea

Why is Sharpay in public school?😭

Andie Ouso

Why did I never notice that Troy's ringtone is getcha head in the game😭

Andie Ouso

While it perhaps could have been executed better, I don't think the message was as much about not being able to take scholarships/opportunities so you can be with your friends as it was about not sacrificing your values and relationships in the process. Like it's okay to have ambitions, but don't get so caught up in striving for success that you lose track of yourself and the other important things in your life.

Jess

Whole heartedly agree!!! This series would be such a hit. Also Lizzy McGuire the movie, Princess Diaries 1 and 2, Another Cinderella Story (has drew who sang for some of Zac in hsm), there’s just so many I’d die to see

macyscraftycreations

ok troy i’m setting up a list for you to watch bc i am absolutely LOVING this series!!!! camp rock lemonade mouth let it shine starstruck cheetah girls the hannah montana movie descendants

emma knightly

I need Camp Rock now!!

Amelia Landry

Drew Seeley actually is who sang for Troy Bolton in the first movie :) they both auditioned and the directors didn’t think Zac had the range to sing so they had him lip sing

Kyanna Mixer

Camp Rock, Lemonade Mouth, and Let it Shine need to be next !!

Lacy Broetzmann

I'm unsure if people have answered this but from my understanding, i think the everyday performance was supposed to be a group performance for the wildcats, while you are the music in me was supposed to be sharpay and troy's performance. gabriella did not know about it, there's a deleted scene in which it is shown that she gets told about it by taylor and convinced to come back to perform. it was a last minute performance for troy because he wasn't initially supposed to be involved, but everyone else knew about it, since it was supposed to be their performance prior to staff performances being cancelled. hope this makes sense x loved your reaction to these movies so much!!

Andra Antohi

PLEASE REACT TO LEMOMADE MOUTH

Lily Busteed

😂

Essence Walker

Yesss absolutely ! That would be amzing !

Essence Walker

I would kill ! For him too watch Hairspray !

Essence Walker

Ella

*Contagion, I think, not human centipede ;P

Ella

TROYYYY pls pls pls plsssss watch lemonade mouth and the cheetah girlssssss pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Skylar

Can’t believe that he missed Chad and Ryan switching outfits 😭💔

Ellie

The noise that came out of me when you said "Nancy Reagan, is that you?" was not human. You made me laugh so hard I got a stomachache, congratulations.

Ally Riopelle

Hairspray!!! Zac efron was so good as link larkin 😭

Tiffany Dagus

Putting in a vote for Camp Rock if that hasn't been mentioned!

Michaela Brown

Setting the scene: it's a summer day in 2008, 6th grade, you just spent the day at the community pool, you had grilled cheeseburgers and wavy chips for dinner and one of those juices that come in the barrel-shaped container. Your friends come over and set up in your living room. Max volume, pillows, popsicles, and HSM2 premiere. One of the only days from my childhood I can remember front to back. Amazing.

Elizabeth Ranatza

Just realized one of Sharpay's friends is literally works with Gustavo in Big Time Rush (Kelly)

bree

I REMEMBER THIS & CHAD'S SHIRT

bree

I’m starting a petition for Troy to watch Teen Beach Movie asap I need this content 😫

Beatriz Gonçalves

Omggg I never knew that was the reason!! And they made her a life guard?!?!

Robb🫶🏾

not only that, the reason she can't swim is because she's horrendously allergic to chlorine. she was literally fighting for her life 💀

uncanny valley girl

Ok so I know this video was posted a little while ago but if you see this you need need need to review rett maddisons album “one for Jackie” she has such a small following but is so criminally underrated her voice is insane and her story is soooooo wild it’s heartbreaking and moving and I just think everyone needs to experience it

Julia Bencivenga

I'm dying with troy's commentary about the scene with the fireworks I hate you sm you ruined my childhood HAHAHAHAHHA

Jessie Laura

Trade secret: Vanessa Hudgens can’t swim😭😭😭 she almost drowning every time she’s in the pool.

Robb🫶🏾

Troy saying “they’re gonna go their own ways.” Is CRAZY!

Daphnebelle

realizing that was chemistry around ryan and chad after years for me is still crazy and I love

Jessie Laura

yessss

Romina

Ryans dad wants his hat to be straight because he wants his son to be straight

Megan Nusink

Yes!!!

Teasa

Lemonade Mouth or Hannah Montana Movie next !!

siiddoniie

omg thissssss

Vivian

I need a camp rock reaction sO BAD OMG

Fabianna Tamborino

OH MY GOD SAME HERE 😭😭😭

Rozheanne Hilario

BET ON IT CHANGED THE TRAJECTORY OF MY LIFE

khushi04

Troy not noticing that chad and ryan switched outfirts had me screaming!!!!

Elisabeth Lavoie

Everyday is my favorite song of the whole series

Dredre3

I remember being at school and my dad taped the recording when it first came out so that I didn’t miss it..good times.

Claudia Adams

OMG TROY ive just been informed that the song that plays on sharpay’s radio on the way to the golf resort is in fact a real song by LUCAS GABREEL HIMSELF!!! it’s called “you got it” 🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽

kay 🦦

I remember Disney let people vote for which disney channel star made a cameo in this movie!!! That’s how Miley ended up in the final number

Korinne Luis

Yeah, they started dating before they even began filming the first movie. They broke up in late 2010

nevyyy

Mr. Evans literally straightens Ryan’s hat twice. It’s so symbolic. Also I forever will be a Ryan/Chad shipper.

Lauren Linger

Please watch Julie and the phantoms!!!

Lori Morgan

PLEASE WATCH LEMONADE MOUTH

Lauren Linger

if i were to take the plot way too seriously i would pose this: yes Sharpay was setting up his future for him and he would have it made, but much like the coercion that occurred to get him to promise to perform with her, where does the obligation end? Be her boyfriend, marry her…? One No and Daddy Evans takes it all away? so yes you’re being given all this on a plate but it’s not a No Strings situation and not without consequences 🌚

Anisa Khan

PLEASE watch another cinderella story with Selena gomez!

summerjordan

my boyfriend and i just had a date night watching all of your high school musical reactions. it was like watching with a friend! your commentary made everything better!

Joy Mydlenski

i think he’s dated almost all of his female leads of things he’s been in😂😂😂

Amber Koenig

Me too. And now I'm just procrastinating ba watching these instead of studying for my exam in two days 😭😅

Jason Ebersberg

literally same!! 😭😂❤️

Anisa Khan

I joined the Patreon just to watch you watch High School Musical. Your commentary and reactions are everything 😂❤️

Morgan

16:36 "they're all gonna go their own ways" NO WAY He prefaced the most iconic song of our childhoods like that

Leah Johnson

everybody say thank you Kenny

Molly Brace

For the love of god please watch camp rock

Erin Beland

In my middle school if you didn’t have that “T as in Troy” necklace you were considered an absolute loser. Every girl I knew had one including myself

Grimelda

In the extended version it is shown that Taylor goes to Gabriella’s house and convinces her to do the talent show after the break up. The wildcats & Ryan come up with this plan to get them back together.

Naiya Williams

im so surprised he didn't notice that Ryan and chad switched clothes after the baseball game

Ari b

Ya they were!!

Dani Aitken

omg thank you for bringing that up bc i was rewatching on disney+ and thought i must’ve blocked it out of my memory because it was so bad 😭 i saw other people mentioning that they dont remember seeing the humu humu song either so them removing it from cable broadcasts actually makes a lot of sense

angela a

not sure if anyone’s mentioned this already since there’s so many comments (also commenting early in the vid), but HSM2 broke a record in 2007 for being the most-watched basic cable telecast with something like 17 million people watching. it also aired right before the hannah montana jonas brothers special. what a time to be a kid fr

angela a

Does anyone know if Zac and Vanessa were dating in real life when this movie was filming?

Sara Haidle

Omg I just looked it up! It totally doesn’t sound like his voice but I can tell it’s him. Should have been on the soundtrack.

Sara Haidle

Also no joke, you are the music in me is one of the all time best Disney songs in history. Argue with the wall!!!!

Kara DJ

I was a “cool” artsy senior in high school when this came out and had an “ironic” premiere party with my punk rock friends but in reality I fuckin loved this shit

Kara DJ

the song playing when sharpay and ryan arrive at lava springs is a song that lucas grabeel (ryan) wrote and recorded called 'you got it'

jade

I need you to know that the public voted for Miley to be in the end scene 🤣🤣 I can’t remember who the others were but it was a vote!!!

Megetive

I was waiting for him to say something 💀

Elise Martinez

I need a moment to hear your opinion about the gay anthem I don't Dance, how come you didn't see the change of clothes!

Rebeca Clavijo

Troy: they’re all gonna go their own ways Oh Troy you have no idea😭

Sarah Lodato

ogs will remember we voted for that miley cameo lol

Belén Rodríguez

I’ve enjoyed watching these with you so much! I remember when this premiered on Disney Channel. We made food and had friends over and I remember screaming “ITS BACK ON” when someone stepped away from the tv during a commercial break lolllll

Alyssa

This movie is especially polarizing for most people

Emily Valcourt

"Onomatopoeia ass last name" xd

Jock

My favorite movie out of the series and i remeber when this premiered we had a whole family night to watch it and searched for Miley Cyrus and chads tshirt and then convinced my parents to stay up for the premiere of phineas and ferb that happened right after

Emily Valcourt

The funniest part about I can’t dance is now Corbin bleu is the only one who continued onto Broadway

Emily Valcourt

troy not remembering mrs bolton from her 30 seconds screen time in hsm 1 is so funny

leah

i’d die for shes the man. PLEASE TROY

savannah

exactly

alex lopez

PLEASE

Matilda Brandmeyer

I'm sorry but Sharpay's version of "Music in Me" is superior

Kiara Amira

Troy and Gabriella finally kiss: YESSSSSSSS!!!!! *literal fireworks* 🎆 🎇 😂😂

Joseph potter

Omg I can’t believe Taylor Swift wrote “Call it What You Want” about Troy and Gabriella.

HiMyNameIsAlex

That was driving me MAD but I was also cracking up. We all watched this movie like 5 times in 1 sitting 😂

Joseph potter

Pausing 25 times in 1 song is a bold choice but im gonna hear you out 😂💀

Joseph potter

I gotta say I love these movies but having you react makes them so much better. You are honestly a hoot to watch!

Shanie Howe

That’s literally the best thing ever wdym😭 Every single reactor keeps missing the entire plot and being rlly confused because they talked over it. Let my man be one of a kind and actually pause and pay attention to details😭😭

Maria Stepanova

I think it’s important to know that Humuhumunukunukuapuaa, the fish song, was not in the original release of the movie. It was cut when it first aired but then added to the DVD releases and now on Disney+

Ryleigh Richards

You should watch Sharpay’s Fabulous Adventure! It’s a spin off and a fun time

Katelyn

Literally joined just to watch HSM reacts :,)

Samanthalikewoe

We need to see descendants 1, 2 and 3!

katie hale

Please watch the cheetah girls

Clarissa Serna

Troy watches HSM 2: aka him crushing on Troy & Chad for 2 hours and I love that for him

Eva - What's My Body Doing

Lemonade Mouth is so iconic and the songs eat!!!

Mary Lewis Johnson

Omg I was thinking the same thing during the baseball choreography

Abigail Smith

I think it would’ve been cool to have troy and Gabriella stay apart, redeem sharpay to be friends/closer with the gang and then try to resolve it in hsm 3.

Celise Smith

PLEASE do hannah montana the movie next!!!! PLEASEE!! the yee haw romance deserves its spotlight on the patreon!

Cara Kent

I absolutely adore that you pause and rewind as much as i do when watching movies alone lmfao, its so fun!! i need to catch every detail!! This watch-along is a BLAST!!

Chris Crowell

troy being the breakdancing kid in high school is an insane lore drop

emma

Bro why do you start and stop so much. You can talk while the movie is playing. Ijs

Rio

I would love to see you react to the musical Across the Universe!!

BeccaBee

Troy we voted on Chads t shirts and what Disney channel star would have a cameo

maria Moore

Cheetah girls needs to be next 🐾

Jessica Scott

Troy’s friends were WAYYYYY to harsh on Troy in this movie, sure there was some distance but it was helping him out to better his future. Sure it sucks to have a friend already adulting pretty fast but Troy was not the bad guy in this movie

Melissa Hoell

RYAN AND CHAD SWITCHED OUTFITS PLAY IT BACK TROY YOULL LOVE THIS

Olivia O'Leary

So fun fact. The tiki song was cut on TV, it's DVD only. And my face when I realized this is the version u have 😮

Nick

that song that played on the radio was lucas grabeels (ryan) new song at the time called “you got it” just a fun fact!!

Carly Strein

I've never seen someone be so elated when the couple kisses in the movie.

Caroline Fischer

I love the pauses btw bc I love hearing your thoughts thank you !!

gabstar

This one is definitely my favorite of the series. I remember when it came out and I had my very first sleepover birthday party and we played it. I thought I was all that just because I had it on DVD. 😜

Caroline Fischer

also there's a weird background conversation about class here - statistically troy is the one in his friend group who needs scholarships the LEAST lol. And have you seen his parents house?!?! They are well off, even if it's a mystery as to how they have that money lol

Kira Fish

Also Ryan and Kelsi schemed behind Sharpay's back, is essentially what happened.

Kalley McClure

TROY how could you not clock the outfit switch 😭😭

Kira Fish

Didn't clock the outfit switch but DID catch the sexual tension so I guess I'll take it

Kalley McClure

I've been waiting for this one since the first reaction vid after he clocked Ryan's ass 🤣

Kalley McClure

You should do cheetah girls next

Kaylie Cascio

Me too 😂

Charlotte Boyd

watching this purely to check if he’s picked up on the clothes switching gay scene

marie

The ending confused the hell out of me for the longest time lol. Basically, "Everyday" was the performance the Wildcats were planning after Sharpay stole the original song, Troy didn't know it because he wasn't involved in the new song, and they called Gabriella back and told her that Troy was making things right, so she came back to perform with them.

Emma B

The entire “bet on it” scene is something truly beautiful

Kailee M.

Me too!

Amya

“mr fulton im gonna beat your ass”, LMAOSJSJSJS IM CRYING

shaii 🫶🏽

It was killing me watching you not notice Ryan and Chad swapped entire outfits with each other after the baseball game 😂

Casey Gold

No way!! I must’ve voted for Miley then and as the years went by I completely mixed up the details! I blame the 17 years since, I was 10 when it came out and it was all so exciting!

Jennifer Heyen

Same

Toni Dickherber

It was Miley, Emily Osment or Mitchell Musso actually! Pre Demi & Selena days because Wizards didn’t even premiere yet! It was v obvious Miley would be selected haha

Lauren

ok but why do i now want you to watch like mean girls, legally blonde, she's the man, all the early 2000s movies

emma

Miley was a cameo that fans could vote for!! We could go to DisneyChannel.com (with a parent’s permission of course) and vote for Miley, Selena or Demi (I think that’s right) to appear in the end of this movie!! I voted for Selena and my best friend had a watch party for this when I came out!!

Jennifer Heyen

wait until you see the Trisha Paytas "Bet On It" cover

Erin Macdonald

I have loved rewatching these with you! There’s a video of bet on it where it speeds up every time he sings bet on it - highly recommend

Handerson

i don't know if you know this but there was a special edition dvd that had like a sing along and i think videos teaching you the dance choreo i used to love it as a kid

emma

My Troy I now why you like these Movie's - not much different then your High School play

DEBRA Hayes

not clocking ryan and chad’s outfit swap after the baseball game HURT 😭

Amanda Stevenson

The fact that Troy's mom was in the first movie and nobody remembers her being there

Sophie Urban

Okay for the ending. Kelsi saw Troy telling Sharpay off. Then they cut to Kelsi being really happy. So Kelsi works together with Ryan to Come up with a plan to confuse sharpay and make Troy sing (the solo troy was singing was supposed to be Ryan with Gabriella). Then they contact Gabrielle to come. She already knew the song cause they've been rehearsing with the group :)

Desi Rodriquez

Your reaction to the kiss was literally the same as mine when I first watched the film 🤣

Carolanne

He didn’t!! he had wholesome reaction 😇

Lu 🫧

also not you tryna stop the orgasm train of thought by saying you’re going to let the movie finish 🤭

Lu 🫧

Mrs Bolton actually showed up in the first film (at the NYE party) Also the set they used for Lava Springs is actually a real life resort!

Carolanne

i assumed when troy cancelled on shar, she told ryan and ryan worked with kelsi to bring gab back since troy had his bet on it moment and realized where he went wrong thus why ryan got the award bc he was the glue for all of them really

Lu 🫧

I wanna see you watch Sweeney Todd!

Heather Oatman

Why am I retroactively realising this movie was my bisexual awakening???

Kalinda Gibson

also you missing out at the fact that troy checks the time on a clockless wrist a hundred times in this lol

Bárbara Freitas

it’s not confusing, kelsey planned it out and made it happen, not gabriella at the end and that’s why she returns. And then ryan just played sharpey, they wanted to teach her a lesson ig but personally, for me, although i love the songs, hsm2 is the weaker of the three movies on my way to watch you FREAK OUT with how good the third one is lol

Bárbara Freitas

Me tooooo fr

Andy

Yay! The level of obsessed I was with these movies when they came out is indescribable. Rewatching them after a couple years through your lens of experiencing them for the first time is such a treat. The soundtrack of the 2nd film is unmatched, IMO, but the first movie will always be the best in my heart.

Abby Muskeyn

2:22 has me in actual tears 😂

maria Moore

Troyyy you missed that Ryan and Chad swapped clothes after the baseball game!!

Alyssa Johnson

bro istg bet on it is a whole EXPERIENCE, your reaction to the reflection was so good lmao

tokki

I think the original plan before Troy “got his head in the game” was for Ryan and Gabriella to sing the leads. But once Troy redeemed himself they traded him out.

Sydney Webb

Oh man this has been such a fun series! I've been throughly enjoying the music reactions and always love your vibes and commentary man so these throwbacks to a series I loved as a teen have been such welcome good vibes and nostalgia! Brightens my day! I was also not expecting Troy to be cheering me on as I listened to this while working, but I guess I am Tina with Tippety Tappity Toes lol

Tina Bak

take a shot every time he replayed the "t as in troy scene"

rubyornot2B

Someone tell Troy he missed Miley 😭

Jasmine Adamson

I literally subbed to watch the HSM trilogy with you 🫡

kay 🦦

when this premiered on disney channel i got so pissed at my sister for not switching to the channel immediately at 7pm cst & stormed away. as if they didn't play it 50 times after the original premier lol

Kamryn Allbee

the stunt double for Gabriella when she tries to "save" Sharpay gets me everytime 💀

Yarissa Wörle

I remember the poll so vividly !! Zack and Cody was another option and Raven!

Alejandra F.

my fav part was the comment about the saturation and zac's eyes immediately but him not noticing zac's hair is a completely different color lol

Kelli

Thirding this! 😂🙌

💙 Lilly Mari

I was thinking this the whole time!! I hope he does 🤞😍

💙 Lilly Mari

Troy immediately getting the flirty vibe with Chad and Ryan is the best

Julia

Huma Huma was NOT in the original cut of the movie when it aired on Disney Channel, it was considered a deleted scene on the DVD! Also, Miley's cameo is because us viewers had a vote before HSM2 premiered and we were asked which Disney Channel star we wanted to have a cameo, there was a poll on the website and I think the options were Miley, Raven, and Christy if I'm remembering correctly but Miley blew every other option out of the water with votes!

Samantha Warren

ok wasn't there lore that vanessa couldnt swim so she was having a panic attack in the final scene in the water and clinging to zach bc she was afraid of drowning???

Kolbie Brightwell

As a dance teacher/choreographer, the dance version of a human centipede is called a “ripple”, “cannon” or “contagious” 🙃… I’ll never look at it the same again lmao

Nicole Stroumbos

Facts

Ari

You should do a ranking of all the hsm songs lol

JJ

I love that Troy was all of us who watched this in real time and had to wait SO LONG for that kiss 😂

Steph

let the guy pause and comment, if we want to see the movie we can see it by yourselves

Hidori [MR Removed]

Not Gabriella asking Ryan to show her how to swing (dance) once he "switched teams"

Jessica Renken

I also hope you went on the deep dive of the underlying homoeroticism of " I don't dance" cause you cannot unhear them talking about 'swinging' once you do.

Jessica Renken

Troy i love you but you need to stop pausing EVERY SINGLE SECOND

Catalina

Not Troy saying “it’s summer they gotta go their own ways” BEFORE the song

Eliza Olsen

Fun fact Vanessa didn’t know how to swim before this movie

jasmine rewane

Not you not noticing they swapped outfits 💀

Reagan Panipinto

If i remember correctly, Disney had a Got Milk sponsorship for HSM

Jessica Renken

Gabriella already knew the song - that’s the one Ryan was helping with choreography. Ryan and Kelsi intercepted Troy and got him to learn the song not Gabriella

Summer

Sharpay and Ryan are the og Billie and Fineas

Chris Fernandes

I loooove that song by Lucas grabeel I listened to it a lot in high school 😂

Kelsey Lynne

I HAVE NEVER SEEN THAT PERFORMANCE WITH SHARPAY AND RYAN WTF

Eden 🩵

i KNEW you would live for bet on it and the miley cameo. some of my fav content you’ve ever done, im eatin this shit up thank u sm for your service

holly 🥀

Fulton is being a horrible boss because sharpay ordered him to get them to quit

Zoe Lundy

so upset i never got a notification for this right when it dropped wth it’s been 6 days and i’ve been dying for more hsm content from you 😂😭 ty tiktok clip for letting me know

holly 🥀

TROY “I want to wear his initial on a chain round my neck. Not because he owns me. But bc he really knows me”- Taylor swift

LeeAna Best

i guess. i've seen comments from other people from other countries saying that scene was cut from their version too

Erika

Ok so that’s why I didn’t remember that?!

Michelle Lopez

I always wanted black/blue hair like hers 😂

Michelle Lopez

Oh right, I always think it’s an after credit thing for some reason 😂

Cas

I'm just here to point out that this movie came out in 2007 and breaking bad came out in 2008. And they both take place in albuquerque new mexico. So there is a canonically Jesse and Walt existed in this universe lol

KMcEds

the reason Troy's eyes are so blue is because it was clouded the whole time filming at the resort so they had to make the sky more blue. Also Gabriella's hair seems blue because of it!

Pien Goren

Still shocked that the bet on it choreo was fully improvised

Sierra

Can not BELIEVE the foreshadowing of “what’s gonna happen? Its summer they’re all gonna go their own way.” Poetic.

jessica phillips

i was waiting for you to notice how ryan and chad switched clothes at the end of the song…there is no heterosexual explanation for that

eris

I WOULD LOVE movie reaction/commentary from you!!

Kayla

it’s only humu humu all for one is in the original movie.

Nasir

The foreshadowing when u say at the beginning "they're all gonna go their own ways" lmfao

Rachel Harshbarger

Huma Huma and the last song All For One are add ons and not technically in the standard movie

Cas

I truly think this film and the rest of the franchise are what make me a giant theatre kid today and THIS MOVIE??? best one of the three imo, just insane line up from start to finish, you got fabulous then work this out then i don't dance then i gotta go my own way then bet on it...just banger after banger after banger!!

Faith Mo

The car transition radio song is Ryan singing 😎😎 and also Troy’s mom was at the very beginning of hsm1!!

taylor vanausdall

Troy vs the concept of a musical where the people in the musical aren’t actually singing and dancing in real life

Elle

The amount of lost you got was so hilarious. Ryan orchestrated the switch up, not Gabriella!

Elle

I don’t know if anyone mentioned this but Zac and Vanessa were actually dating while filming this movie

Jordan Tyler

Those are my top 2 best musical movies 😍😭

Flavie

Troy, PLEASE watch Hairspray! It was the same year as HSM 2, adapted from the Broadway musical. It's one of my comfort movies, but the music and performances are so good.

Alyssa Pisani

I CAME TO SAY HAIRSPRAY TOO. I would die to see Troy's reaction to Hairspray, I fear. He'd love it.

Alyssa Pisani

sharpay isn’t even into troy. like, shes into the idea of troy. all she has is her brother and she, until the end of the movie, doesn’t see him on the same level as her (which one could argue she still doesn’t). she views troy as this Thing she wants alongside her to “finally match her caliber”. shes frustrated when he acts like a person, she pushes back if he gives any input… kinda like you said, she wants a dog. and to me thats kinda how she looked at troy/gabriella. not even a relationship, really. she didn’t care about their Togetherness as much in the first movie. but *then* she saw them as two people who do well together on a stage and was like, shit, i want that. so imo that was her motivation for this movie— trying to have what they have, but not understanding the only way to replicate that is to have actual chemistry and appreciation. she doesn’t even grasp what that is! its sad, honestly 😭

savannah

Literally had a party at my house for the Disney channel premier of this movie. Line for the bathroom during commercial breaks 😂

Rylee Fincannon

Troy you have to share videos of you breakdancing in high school

Elle

The rawr was great- glad you kept it in buddy

Elle

Imposter syndrome sucks so much troy, I'm sorry you're feeling that way lately. I just wanted to tell you that I think you are doing such an awesome job! I love your content so much and you are one of the only patreons I feel like is genuinely worth it, the content is amazing! I honestly could watch you watch musicals and DCOMs every day, it makes me so happy and it feels like I'm watching with a friend. I hope the joy and shenanigans of HSM2 helped to brighten your day <3

Gracyn

You got to watch Sharpays fabulous adventure

Evan Morrison

If I remember correctly, we had to vote who we wanted to see make an appearance in the movie and everyone voted for Miley 😝

Sydnee

Best song in the franchise

Francesca White

Me but with I Want it All (literally hyperfixated on that song)

Francesca White

seconding this

savannah

I think Sharpay sees a relationship as just another commodity, so everything she does is trying to convince Troy being with her is more valuable than with Gabriella.

Kit Taylor

it wasn't shown in Hungary either. I only saw it many years later. probably a good thing, poor 12yo me would have been traumatised 😂

Erika

after watching the third movie, you HAVE to rank troy's "existential crisis" songs (getcha head in the game/bet on it/scream) and gabriella's "fuck it i'm outta here" songs (when there was me and you/gotta go my own way/walk away). i'd add sharpay and ryan's duets too, but i feel like with "i want it all" and "humu humu", both the winner and the loser are very obvious 😬

Erika

This

Britney

After HSM3 watch Hairspray!!😫 pleaseee😭🙏🏽

Erika Hernandez

oooooh by the way we did see troy's mom in the first movie! right at the beginning, when troy and his dad were playing basketball before the new year's eve party! so she wasn't a new character in this

Erika

HOW did you watch this and not notice ryan and chad's outfut change after the baseball game????? i was sooo looking forward to your reaction to that 😭 also, i'm so glad you watched the full version with humu humu. when it was first released, back in like.. 2007, it was on tv with humu humu cut from it. some moments didn't make much sense, and i didn't understood them. until many years later when disney first played the full version with humu humu. love this movie for giving us possibly the most unhinged dcom song (humu humu), and also thr gayest dcom song, bisexual anthem "i don't dance". this movie really has it all <3

Erika

just me back lurking waiting for #3 👀

chandler

Please do Hairspray and The Greatest Showman with Zac Efron too!

Samantha Peckham

I already can't wait for your reaction to the third!!

Alice Rancourt

i knoooow im trying to hang on to these plots!

hammy

There's also a music video lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcDaWwXFGKo

Tyra B.

Omg that's so funny! Honestly!

Tyra B.

He’s always so lost when watching movies 🤣🤣🤣

Toya Mcglothen

You’re not ready for 3😩👏🏽

Nali

The chemistry between Chad and Ryan 😩

Luella

FR I WAS SO SAD HE DIDNT NOTICE 😭😭

Tyler

CANT WAIT FOR HSM3

Regine Tok

Just some thoughts about the ending. When Troy learned the song we could assume that Kelsi added his and Gabriella’s part onto the original. I think originally it was more of a group number (as show cases earlier in the movie) but with Kelsi’s made composer skills she was able to adapt the song to the situation. That way Troy and Gabriella could have a big reunion. I agree that it was kinda confusing and still seems just thrown together so they could have a happy ending. Hope this helps 🫶🏼

Abigail May

Camp Rock and Teen Beach are some of my fav Disney musicals, growing up and going to college has made me revisit these movies. They are so nostalgic. And have some of the best Soundtracks.

Abigail May

PLEASE WATCH LEMONADE MOUTH PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. i worshipped that movie as a kid

madison hubbard

I think Bet on it walked so that Scream could run lol

Elara Jade

No like I was in love with that man (still am to this day lol) he and Corbin Bleu were my first celebrity crushes

Elara Jade

You've totally got to watch Jump In with Corbin Bleu and keke Palmer, Rags with Keke Palmer and Max Schneider, both Camp Rock Movies and Hannah Montana the Movie!!!

Elara Jade

after hsm3 you have ! to watch teen beach movie, which is also a DCOM however im my opinion is one of the last disney channel movies that was actually good with the music and the choreography and all that jazz ! please keep doing these movie commentaries im in love

tpwk.anely

You mention a few times about Troy not knowing how to play golf, but just in case no one else mentioned, they actually say that he’s also a golfer and a good one, when they’re first with her dad.

amber

I need you to be aware of the Chad/Ryan outfit swap. It’s literally my Roman Empire.

amber

binged both of your reactions to the first and second movie and im so ready for the 3rdddd

Breanna

oh i cant wait for you to watch hsm3 and sharpays fabulous adventure

Aprille Reynolds

Just FYI Sharpay has her own spin off movie!! It was literally my religion as a child, I love it so so so much. Not as much music, but just a great movie, and incredible story for her character.

amber

the thing with the milk in the beginning is because of those got milk? campaigns they were a part of at the time lmaoooo

Kat

and that’s what i pay for

sarah

YOU DIDNT NOTICE THE OUTFIT SWAP BETWEEN RYAN AND CHAD AFTER I DONT DANCE!! Oh if disney channel back then let people be gay they would’ve been end game

sarah

pretty please watch lemonade mouth!!

sarah

HSM 3 is my all time fav!! The production value and choreography is next level compared to the first two

jenny ☾

you should watch sharpay’s fabulous adventure too!

Emmy Buhr

i'm sure someone's brought it up but the premiere of hsm2 had 17.2 million viewers which was insane numbers for kids programming (around time of its release it was declared the most watched cable movie oat!!)

dei

if you want to stay on the zac efron musical saga you should watch hairspray if you haven’t!

Katie

My dad has always died on the hill that the biggest plot hole in the movie is how did Gabriella end up with the T necklace at the end? She gave it to Troy when she left and then is wearing it again when she comes back

lillie

Yesss Bet On It was improv!!

Bianca Merenda

Thank God the part about the Hawaiian song was never shown on TV in Latin America (at least in Colombia it wasn't shown). They only said that Troy was late for his date with Gabriela. That scene is so uncomfortable haha.

Laura Contreras

I am cracking upppp at the reaction as Troy stomps up the golf course (Bet On It intro) 😂😂 such a valid reaction

Morgan

The next film is just a huge love letter to the series, and to these actors, who poured everything into making these movies and I can never get through the last number without choking up.

Nathan Diaz

This installment has the BEST music out of the trilogy- every song, with the exception of that rough deleted sequence, is a BANGER! There are a couple songs that are not as great in the other two movies, but this one is just hit after hit.

Nathan Diaz

No you ate with this.

Nathan Diaz

You HAVE to see HSM3

Alexa

I am so very excited for you to react to the third movie!!

Dia Blue

Troy getting all triggered with Ryan and Gabriella 💀💀 like Troy….trust it’s okay haha

Morgan

This movie was a canon event for me as a young woman. The way that Gabriella never truly got in the way of Troy pursuing his future, she always supported him, all she wanted was for him to make the time for her. And then when she realized he couldn’t do that, she respected herself and left!

Bailey Heinrich

You’re not at all crazy for seeing the chemistry with Ryan and Chad. it’s definitely there 😆 and we luv

Morgan

somewhere (probably on tumblr) there is like an essay that exists on the subtext of chad and ryan's 'i don't dance' song and it has lived rent free in my mind ever since i first read it Highly recommend u track that down

mochimyk

They had a GREAT budget for HSM2 😭😭 every little detail is insane

Giselle

do the reaction of the 3rd NOW PLEASE

Aida

YESSSS

Maria

Sending love ❤️❤️❤️

Maria

OMG YES

Lauren Vivian

genuiely i can not WAIT for you to see the third one ohhhhhh its so good

Shaye Lucas

i almost fell off my chair when you said human centipede cause literally SAME 😭

Bey

Can’t wait for you to watch the 3rd one

Charles Averill

should he watch julie and the phantoms, i think YES.

georgia leonardi

omg yes lemonade mouth is SO DAMN GOOD

Hannah Nelson

There was a whole analysis I read once about how Troy and Gabriella are really the villains of the series and while Sharpay is super manipulative it's lowkey true 😭 like just give me a spinoff of my boys Ryan and Chad 🥰 also DID YOU SEE THAT THEY CHANGED ENTIRE OUTFITS AFTER THE BASEBALL SCENE

penelope_sunscri

23:08 😭😭😭😭

Morgan

LMAOO YES the saturation 😂😂 one of the first things i think of when I think of the 2nd one 💀

Morgan

Yesss the bathroom scene with Gabriella and Sharpay - I remember my brother and I instantly calling BS when we first saw it as kids 😂

Morgan

This is the first movie I remember watching on release night and would reenact the whole movie with my friends. It’s so fun watching your prospective / rewatching from an adult perspective. Someone else commented this but best money ever spent subscribing on Patreon.

Makayla Toy

YESSSS HE MUST

Lina Olson

Golden throat 💀💀💀💀

Kaylin

The amount of feelings I had for Zac Efron watching these movies was INDESCRIBABLE.. rewatching these w you is everythingggg!!

Julia Fowlie

Can’t wait to watch your commentary for HSM3!

Mahala Renteria

Lemonade mouth!!

Rachel Smith

I’m so disappointed that you didn’t notice that Chad and Ryan swapped clothes after the baseball game

Alana Richardson

Sending positive vibes to you friend ✨💖✨

Kelly Semon

I have genuinely like zero recollection of the third film but I feel strongly that the “I gotta go my own way” track would have been a better fit in a plot about them applying for/ going to college where Gabby is a super genius and Troy is an athlete and they’d probably have shifting priorities. It’s a great song about a respectful if hard breakup (especially for a kids film) and it would have held more weight if they didn’t immediately get back together. Like a few weeks ago I heard it again for the first time in years outside the context of the film and I was genuinely like “wow this song is shockingly similar to my experience of ending a many year relationship at the end of college because I was going to grad school and my partner had dropped out and we had shifting values that wouldn’t sustain a long distance relationship” and I assumed the track was from the “going to college” movie 😅

Kelly Semon

the miley cyrus cameo was so mind blowing as a kid. the only thing i can compare it to is spiderman: no way home levels of freaking out.

Parker Ann

Troy I just wanna say subscribing to this is Money. Well. Spent.

Marlayna White

troy you paused 1000 times each song 😭

gracie

You gatta watch “Jump in” next starring Corbin Bleu, so good !!

Nyesha Lovely

i remember being so excited for the release of this second movie, they had fans vote for which Disney celebrity got the cameo in the last number of the movie and Miley Cyrus won😂

Monica

Just to clarify some of the plot points that caused confusion, the movie is basically putting into context how chasing your dreams can make you loose yourself and your morals. Troy was forgetting his friends, blowing off dates, becoming someone who they didn’t recognize. When he realized that he could still work on his future in basketball and singing while still being himself, he quit the show with Sharpay and took his kitchen job back. When that happened he made up with Chad and they told Gabriella that the old Troy was back and that’s when they started planning the big reveal of them getting back together. At the end when they all danced to “Everyday”, that was the song they were originally rehearsing to do at the talent show without Troy but decided it was better suited for Troy to sing with Gabriella. They weren’t trying to say that scholarships/college aren’t important, just that you shouldn’t loose yourself trying to figure out your future. I adore your reactions and I can’t wait to watch you react to the 3rd movie!!! ❤️

Chauntel

Camp rock pleaseee

Leadmt

i honestly loved your recent musical reactions. thought i'd leave some suggestions/recommendations for potential musical reactions that i'd love to see you do... :) 1. the greatest showman - more great zac efron content (where he also actually sings lol) but also more importantly my girl zendaya (she has got pipes!!! you should definitely react to some of her music, especially her collaborations with labrinth) and the incredible hugh jackman (who is currently having a moment with deadpool and wolverine btw, so it would kinda fit rn). 2. dear evan hansen - i love the original broadway production more than the movie, but it's nonetheless a good movie with great songs and great actors/singers (love ben platt). 3. mamma mia 1&2 - honestly both such comfort movies with an incredible cast and production, the abba songs are just timeless bangers and its always just so fun to jam and sing along. 4. pitch perfect 1&2 - i mean you've probably watched these two but it would just be so entertaining to see your reaction haha. fingers crossed that we might get to see your reaction to one (or more) of these movies. either way, can't wait to see your reaction to high school musical 3 soon! :)

anu

i am dying for burlesque

sam winterstein

you were ICONIC

sam winterstein

hahah i know not being ungrateful just very excited for the next!

Morgan Wheeler

OK so we're doing musicals? I'd love to see u watch camp rock if you haven't🩷

Maria

OH MY GOD YES

Maria

It's not even been a week damn😂

Maria

each day that goes by where i dont recieve a notification for the HSM3 video hurts but im willing to wait for something so worthwhile. i havent been this hyped for a reaction in a whileeeeee. tysm for doing these!

Morgan Wheeler

YES! 100% agree so hilarious - more of that please!

Benjamina Haksabanovic

wow, that was such a blast! especially nostalgic when you saw and loved the movies way back when... insane how the plot is on the b-side but the songs are the most epic of the trilogy? how? anyhooo - wait for the finale, they go all out and it's so so good! thanks for this man, excited for HSM3

Benjamina Haksabanovic

Yes! Exactly, Ryan was supposed to do Troy’s part but after he figured out that he needed to be better in life lol, Ryan gave him his part. Thus why Ryan won the award as a director

Rachel Wallis

They’re both SO GOOD in their own ways I have tried to decide this so many times 🤣

fdill11

THIS is the comment i was looking for!!! My eyes BULDGED when he said that

fdill11

please do mamma mia

Savannah Brown

i literally broke up with my boyfriend in 6th grade by sending him the Gotta Go My Own Way music video and said “just watch this, then it’ll make sense” 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 idk who i thought i was hahahaah

Chynna Lorenzo

I left my husband a week ago and as of this current moment I forgot about gotta go my own way and now im balling my eyes out

Cara Corrigan

They werent upset bc he didnt have time to hang out with them. They were upset bc he kept breaking promises and never explained any of it to them.

Melanie

when this premiered they had the cast teach the dances on commercial breaks it was literally such a great time to be alive. best slumber party had round the world

Savannah Brown

CANNOT wait for your reaction to HSM3 after those lil wrap up thoughts 😂 but for what’s next… maybe some other classic musicals? Greatest showman, mamma Mia, maybe like burlesque? I think those would be fun af

Shelby Walsh

“Is that a slur for people who do yoga?”😂😂 I’m crying this was amazing, so happy you are having fun with this.

Marissa Killpack

as an 8 year old i was weirdly obsessed with troy bolton’s dad

Savannah Brown

editing Troy on the other side of the screen is the best part of these***. MORE. PLEASE. *** excluding “you fucking nerd!!!!!” i rolled out of my bed i was laughing so hard

Sara Dumanske

AFTER HSM3 NOW WE NEED CAMP ROCK! prepare to cringe more 😂

Alisha Farhanna

i SCREAMED when you said “they have to go their own ways” not knowing the title of the song coming up later in the movie

raile

truly on the edge of my seat for your reaction to night to remember

Aimee B

which song is better, bet on it from hsm2 or scream from hsm3?

morgan's boyfriend

plz watch the hannah montanna movie

shslby

Praying for Cheetah Girls🤧

Loreleigh Harper

1) Just want to point out the very culturally appropriating hawaiian number was deleted in the actual televised movie but im not sure why they include it on the streaming version... clearly originally deleted for a reason lmao 2) So glad you noticed the tension in "I don't dance" because it's been bisexual head canon about chad and ryan since 2007 now because of that one scene hahahaha. Like.... they switch clothes at the end??? hello??

Rachel Crawford

I’m ready holy fk

Brendan Coen

i’m living for your disney channel era, PLEASE watch the cheetah girls it’s life changing

taylor

you’ve opened my eyes. i now think the second movie is just a euphemism for troy and gabriella’s first time.

taylor morton

troy you also need to watch Sharpays Fabulous Adventure

kelsey belcher

You should definitely watch more disney channel music movies, specifically Lemonade Mouth and Camp Rock!

Christina Nicole

I can’t wait for you to see Troy’s performance of Scream in HSM3 lmfaooo also you definitely need to react to Newsies Live/Hairspray if were keeping the movie musical moment going on here

Trinity DeJesus

idk if you noticed but when they were with Ryan in the country club rehearsing a song it was Everyday so they had planned to do this song as a group but ended up including Troy

Ana Jaime

when the other troy showed up on the other side of the screen during the work this out song i jumped lmaoo i was so confused for a second

Iyanah Harris

i agree, it's kind of hard to overlook

dest

it's actually so true that this can be a bigger conversation about privilege specifically regarding to college, i know if i was in troy's position i wouldn't have the ability to just skip out on the opportunities sharpay was offering because it made my friends sad that i couldn't hang out all the time. i find it so interesting that one of the morals of this movie is to stop focusing on the future. i don't think it's a harmful perspective just an interesting one i guess.

dest

i’m CRYING at “you fucking nerd!!!!” when the kid interrupted troy and gabriella’s kiss after he gave her the necklace so funny

Ashley

if you do more disney movie reaction i lowkey want to see descendants bc even tho that was released when i was drifting out of my disney era the music kinda goes off and it has a good story to it <3 Edit: or Camp Rock because I haven't seen that in so long but it was such a big part of my childhood lmfaoooo

Faith B

hairspray and hsm 3 pls king!

taylor morton

sooooo excited for hsm3!!! 😭 luv ur reactions

vič

idk if i just havent gotten to the part where he realizes it but CHAD AND RYAN. SWITCHED. CLOTHES. AFTER THE BASEBALL GAME please tell me you realized that because there have been so many memes about it and the fact the song was about how they swing!!!! ALWAYS LOVE your reactions Troy <3 <3 <3

Faith B

Woah I didn't know that!

Camila Dejesus

if you decide to watch any more disney channel musicals after HSM3, teen beach movie is one that’s worth checking out

lauren

You're going to love the 3rd movie. It's my favorite one

Kassandra Velasquez

This is everything.

Lucy Henwood

Glad to see I'm not the only one who noticed that 😂

Hayley Fecko

Have you watched your pal Ally Sheehan's vlog where she went to this country club?? You can stay here, and they really lean into the High School Musical references!! So cool

Olivia Carney

The transition song when Sharpay and Ryan pull up to the country club is actually Ryan’s actor’s song! Its a single called ‘You Got It’ by Lucas Grabeel. :)

Angel Martin

I need the HSM3 reactions now!!!!! By far the best one!

Kristy Ward

also yeah, lol, there's a pretty crucial deleted scene where someone goes to get gabriella and get her back on board. that's also why she has her necklace back when she shows up. ryan pulled the wool over sharpay's eyes with the song switch (she can't crash and burn if she can't even perform, after all lol.) honestly the logic kinda falls apart at the end, don't think about it too hard. i like HSM2 over 1 despite it's more extreme highs and lows simply because the songs i love, i LOVE (you are the music in me is absolutely superior, no notes; bet on it, i dont dance, and fabulous are instantly iconic; summer is high energy fun; and work this out is fun and catchy as hell.) despite it generally being messier, i love the vibe and the slight toning down of the cheese in this one over the first lol

Neumann

I CANNOT wait to see your reaction to HSM3!! The budget is way bigger for the third movie and it's amazing!!

Taylor

i’m SO excited for HSM3 (the best one) 😭🫶🏼

alysha

lol i think you missed that sharpay and ryan's parents are on the board of the country club and that their dad "built" the golf course; they basically own it which mean that the entire movie, fulton is trying to do sharpay's bidding of driving the other east high kids to quit while dragging troy in deeper. and on top of troy's dad giving characteristically narrow minded, self-centered advice, he's also just 17 and a bit of a himbo, and so is not very good at navigating this situation, nor has he ever been the sole focus of a manipulator (near narcissist) like sharpay it's a good conflict, more mature than the usual DCOM imo. it's not wrong for troy to be looking out for his future, but gabriella said it best: at a certain point, the choices, the excuses you make along the way become who you are. and the fact that this DCOM is actually framing it that way instead of softballing it, i just find it very interesting that they chose to actually communicate that warning to middle and high schoolers. it's a subtle life lesson that doesn't get talked about much, let alone in kids programs

Neumann

meow rawr- absolutely necessary

Meg Willson

I loved this so much! Can't wait for HSM3 it's my favourite one!

Amber

i only just noticed that the cheerleader dancing with chad in the hallway aren't wearing shoes! lol

Neumann

I get where Troy was coming from but in the beginning of the movie when the job came looking for him he immediately put in a word for his friends and girlfriend but in the middle of the movie you can see the attention is getting to him and that he lost sight of himself

Deanna Rankin

If you are a musical journey and need more zac efron. Please watch hairspray

Alyssa

HE WOULD BE OBSESSED

Jazelle Hammond

I live for Troy giggling at Ryan

Zuzanna Gronowska

omg you HAVE to watch hairspray! zac eats so much

Zaniah

“I’m just gonna let the movie finish” - SUCH A BANGER LINE TO END THAT ASIDE TROY.

Nathalie Richter

NO SO AGREE HE’LL LOVE CHILLIN LIKE A VILLAIN

Nathalie Richter

i was so confused when two of you showed up what

Celine U.

I had to pause when the kid asked Troy to sign his yearbook. You had me fucking dying

Vinthea

I was so baked when I watched this (would recommend), but when there was suddenly two Troys reacting I was so confused.

Brittany P

I love troy trying to make sense of the ending 😂 it’s just vibes man

Fahmeen

PLEASE watch HSM3, the budget increase is insane and it's so nostalgic for me. The songs are also great obvs

Riley

can’t wait for the 3rd movie 😁

ally

I was music director of high school musical at the school I taught at and we broke kids up into the cliques. One time I asked “who’s a thespian?” And a few girls raised their hands and I was like it should be more of you? They thought I asked who is a LESBIAN!!!!!!!

Lk

Such a fun reaction!!! Can't wait for HSM3. But please watch Hairspray if you haven't seen it yet.

O.T

Just a thought but can you do phantom of the opera 🥹

Yohaha

YESSS the 3rd is nexttt it’s the besttt🩷

Reese_leann12

troy after you’re done with hsm3 you NEED to watch lemonade mouth

Taylor Daniels

Is it too early to request a reaction to Julie and the Phantoms? It’s only 1 season but it’s directed and choreographed by Kenny Ortega and the band members in the show are all actually musicians and they were a real band formed for the show. Highly recommend!!

Logan Sondgerath

You have to watch descendants after this series!! Its so iconic another Kenny Ortega classic😆

Jazelle Hammond

listening to it now, wow

hammy

The song you liked as Sharpay and Ryan drove into the country club is actually by Lucas Grabeel who plays Ryan! It’s called You Got It!

Spell

Can’t wait for you to see I Want it All on HSM3 omg

Vanessa Araujo

i can’t wait for hsm3!!!

arianna

Ok so now I'm going to need a reaction to the 3rd one because that ones my fav, also you should react to sharpays fabulous adventure it takes place after the last movie.

Faith

Troy. No need to question anything. Just go with the flow. Believe in the Wildcats 😂😂

Siena

I’m so hoping you do the third movie

millie s

NOOOO I was waiting for you to realise that Chad and Ryan switched uniforms after the game😩 There was def something going on in that locker room

Silja Molstad

I was waiting for Troy to realize and he just never did😭

Silja Molstad

NEED THIS!

Sophie Polidori

This series is so fun! Can’t wait for number 3!

Brittany Ratcliff

So a few of my favourite things that I never realised about this film (until someone on the internet pointed them out) is that Gabriella briefly loses her shoe on the reprise of What Time Is It in front of the fountain, and that after Fabulous when Gabriella dives the pool, it's a stunt double, plus Ryan and Chad switching outfits after I Don't Dance (!!!!!!) Also I cannot wait for HSM 3, the first two films have been so much fun. One of my all time favs is Lemonade Mouth so would love a reaction to that one too!

Georgia Leeder

I need a reation to Teen Beach Movie at this point! They are so much fun and undereted. Love the reaction!!!!!

Bruna

his mom was in the first movie! it was right at the beginning at the basketball court

Average Ocean

After HSM you have to watch Hairspray! Another Zac Efron classic!

Claudia Gleason

after you finish high school musical you should watch the greatest showman. it's genuinely so good.

Nikki King

You’ve got to watch the cheetah girls! Kenny Ortega also directed the second one in that series

Courtney Pleasant

i’m so excited for hsm 3

anna budig

this was soooo fun. the third one is my favorite of the three so i'm very excited for you to watch!!

Jenny Kelson

“What are they gonna do without this school? It’s summer so they’re all gonna go their own way” Oh good sir, you have no idea 👀😂

Liam Mcfarlane

OK BUT WHAT ABOUT RYAN AND CHAD SWITCHING OUTFITS ????????

Giullia Franciscon

im SO excited for you to see the budget and production on the 3rd movie aaaaaaa

Giullia Franciscon

The first one was good, the second one is just okay but then the third one is surprisingly great. They get an actual budget, the storyline is good and some of the musical numbers are kind of mind blowing (cough, I Want It All, cough)

Liam Mcfarlane

Bet on it is such a cinematic masterpiece when it cuts to the next scene it’s so disorienting like…oh yeah I’m watching a DCOM 🤪

Lizzie Beth

I second this!!!!!! It needs to happen.

Morg

You need to watch Descendants 1-3 that’s all Kenny Ortega too!! And Lemonade Mouth is a good movie to watch!

lauren

I remember this theory going round!! There are actually some people adamant about them both swinging both ways if you know what I mean😉😂

lauren

you neeeed to watch the hsm concert its insane. literally died

Louise Owen

Hi Troy feeling the very same way! Wondering what I am doing !! Not sure if life feels real but we just have to keep moving forward <33 great reaction thank you for this again !!

iameloush

Surely got to watch the Hannah Montana Movie next

emma

Bet on it walked so Scream could run

Laura Jones

You should see hairspray with zac efron too, if you havenˋt seen it. It is very god.😄

Mona 95

Would love you to watch Lemonade Mouth! Iconic bops

Emily

Okay idk if anyone said thjs but after I don’t dance Chad( Corbin ) and Ryan ( Lucas ) switch clothes so there are some theories about how that might have happened 😏🌶️

Makayla Bailey

Yes PLEASE!

Makayla Bailey

I support this 1000%

Makayla Bailey

I’m so glad you got the Miley cameo

Erin

“I want to wear his initial on a chain round my neck. Not because he owns me, cause he really knows me”

Laura Jones

Can’t wait for you to watch HSM 3 it blows the first two out of the water!!!

Valeria Rivera

TROY PLEASE PLEASE PLEASEEEEEEE DO DESCENDANTS FRANCHISE NEXT ITS ALSO DIRECTED BY KENNY!!! THE MUSIC IS INSANE😭

Valeria Rivera

I hope he fixes it later but 8 mins in and I can barely hear the movie 😭😭

Fahmeen

I NEED YOU TO REACT TO ANOTHER CINDARELLA STORY WITH SELENA GOMEZ

Riley Proshek

I am so glad someone brought this up!!! I remember saving it on my TIVO so I could rewind

Makayla Bailey

“Yooo that’s Miley!!” Troy wait until you hear that we all voted for her to make that cameo on disneychannel.com lmao

lilythesilly

Lemonade mouth would be so fun for you to watch!

Sabrina

Two things: 1. Im SO hyped for 3 cause that movie... is on another level 2. Gonna need a Lemonade Mouth reaction IMMEDIATELY.. like yesterday. That is all.

Amara Jimenez

Lmao same

Daniel Stergios

Anything with Troy and Ally is a neeeeeeed she is our certified Disney and Taylor expert

Daniel Stergios

UGH this movie is so nostalgic, disney channel was at its peak when these movies were coming out

Marissa Garbiel

They cut a scene where Taylor goes to visit Gabriella and convince her to come back, so that might be part of the confusion about the ending.

Angela

He’s gonna lose it when he sees Scream😅

Sophia Hoffman

once you finish hsm3, I'm gonna need you to react to starstruck

Hannah Childress

you should react to the camp rock movies next!

Madison Owens

Seeing you react to these movies makes me feel like I'm watching them for the first time. Excited for your reaction to HSM3!

Abygail Helms

There’s a blooper from the 3rd movie where Ryan starts making out with Zeke lol.

Daya K

the third one is my fave ngl songs r too good

Kyra

Vanessa Hudgens didn't know how to swim when they filmed this movie, kinda funny that she plays a lifeguard. You can see on the scene that Sharpay pretends to drown in the pool, that the "Gabriella" jumping to save her is a stunt double. And on the final scene, she is on the pool, holding on to Zac, and by the ending of the scene, you can see her struggling face https://www.tiktok.com/@theonlycb3/video/7233828922557992238

napaulaon

Can not wait for HS3! It is much more higher quality and crisp as it was the first out of the 3 to be released in theaters because of how big the first two films got!

Sophie Polidori

After the trilogy comes to an end, you should react to the solo music from the cast! Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale and Corbin Bleu!!!

Juan Romero Hernández

cannot BELIEVE we didn't talk about chad and ryan's gay love affair in "i don't dance" i mean COME ON they switched outfits!!!! you know they explored each others' bodies!!!

Abbey Cloonan

Watching you react to my #1 favorite comfort movie for the first time has filled me with such an unbridled joy

Abby Flyer

This was everything I wanted it to be. HSM2 is iconic. My favorite part of the nostalgia is on commercial breaks they used to teach you the dances 😂😂

Meagan Bagley

This was so fun omg. Also you should do the camp rock movies next💀💀

Avery Delong

I wish he realized Chad and Ryan switched outfits after the baseball scene 😅

Veronica Phillips

the third movie is my favorite! It was so highly anticipated that they put it in theaters like the hannah montanna movie

AK Bentson

I’m so happy you are watching these!! A couple things: 1. Did you notice that Ryan & Chad change into each other’s clothes after the baseball scene? 👀 2. The problematic fish song wasn’t in the original movie, it was a bonus scene for the DVD. 3. I think originally Ryan & Gabriella were going to sing the duet together at the talent show but Kelsey/Ryan was trying to help Gabriella out and got Troy to do it instead so they’d get back together. (Still fucked over Sharpay but she was being a brat the whole movie). 4. After the success of the first movie they included Disney channel fans in a few aspects of this movie- including voting on a line that Troy would say and what Disney channel star we wanted to cameo: of course everyone voted for Miley Cyrus! Movie #3 is my favorite. This one has a lot of holes, but some iconic songs!!! Thanks again for helping me relive my childhood.

Madison VanBurkleo

TROY YOU MISSED THE MOST MEMED PART After the baseball match when they're eating, CHAND AND RYAN HAVE TOTALLY SWITCHED OUTFITS

Casey doulman

this film has also such a conflicting moral bc yeah, on one hand scholarship is good, and most friends would be supportive of your successes, even if they were come by in a weird way; but its a strange and possibly intentional undertone of this film considering Troy is the white main character, and the other wildcats with main speaking roles like chad, gabriella, taylor, are all people of colour. Idk, no conclusive thoughts obviously, but once you see it, its difficult to not notice... :<

Remedialllll

And all of the songs in the first season are actually live !!!!

Victoria Chinaka

Can you please do HSMTMTS after finishing the movies?!?!? You would really enjoy it and the music!

Victoria Chinaka

this is all i wanted ever. so excited for third. also! the song that plays as sharpay and ryan drive into the resort is an original song by Lucas Grabeel (Ryan) that was included.

Morgan Wheeler

love it troy!!! can't wait for the third one :)

Rebecca L

Also can't wait for you to see the HSM3 kiss <3

Michelle Cardoso

So the ending performance was what Ryan choreographed for the staff, BUT when they found out that Troy dropped out, they decided to sneak him into it last second! And I truly believe that they called Gabriella last minute and told her the plan, I don't believe she had any part in this scheme. We can hand this shenanigan off to Ryan getting his revenge on his sister :P

Michelle Cardoso

it wasn’t in the made for tv version! i had the dvd as a kid and it was my favorite scene 😭 so when i saw the made for tv for the first time i was like WHERE IS IT

Clara Leach

Sir I gotta see you react to descendants please

John Avila

I'm really hope you continue the Disney movie journey. I would love to see your reaction to the Hannah Montana movie lol

Jordyn Davis

The last one will always be my fave!

Emily

SUMMER!!!

Ashleigh

If you haven’t watched the greatest showman that shows how much Zac’s voice has matured and would be an awesome react

Ally Dickey

Story plot: The manager Fulton is the Evans's actual dog, and he's training Troy to become their next puppy

Remedialllll

I'm living for the double troy commentary sksksk

Remedialllll

WHATTTTT

sam winterstein

bet on it was literally improv😭😭 also the tiki scene wasn’t in the original movie and just was a deleted scene until they put it in the disney+ version

Camryn Evans

thank you for this

Paloma Gavioli

Bet on it was completely improv'd by Zac as they had no clue what to do with it and it still has me in a chokehold today

Sophie Randall

salkfhglkh everytime u replay the necklace scene i go a little bit more insane lmaooo

Remedialllll

YES I’m so glad you watched it AND confirmed you’ll watch #3! A few thoughts: - Utah! The first film is in Salt Lake City, and this second film was shot in St. George, UT! As someone who grew up in STG it meant everything to see it on screen. I’m glad you appreciated the scenery! If you ever have the chance to go I highly recommend visiting it and Zion National Park and Snow Canyon State Park (one of the shots you can see Sharpay’s convertible driving through Snow Canyon). I was so mad that I found out that they filmed there and i never saw them, or in the film (we were 10 we never would’ve been in it) and this was pre-social media so there wouldn’t have been any tweets/posts about where they were at. For how big these films got w/out social media it would be wild to see now - FILM HISTORY: this premiere not only broke the record for Disney channel, but had the largest viewership in cable tv history - During “You Are The Music in Me” you ask “How do they know the words??” So funny you said that in this movie but not the last, because a lot of people made fun of in the first movie for the first song (karaoke), because they stopped looking at the screen and only looked at each other. So I’m pretty sure in this one they carried around the music sheets in attempt to keep it “realistic” 💀 - Humuhumu was NOT apart of the original movie, they later released it as a “bonus scene” … we pretend it doesn’t exist - Fun fact: Lucas Greebel (Ryan) was recovering from knee surgery when they made I Don’t Dance - You NEED to go back and watch the post- baseball scene w/ Ryan and Chad. LOOK AT THEIR OUTFITS 👀 - Troy ditching friends to play with RedHawks: tough situation as you say this is how I take it: Sharpay meddling for the wrong reasons was wrong. Troy taking opportunities was never wrong, but blowing off friends and dates was, he just needed to keep more organized. The friends were in the wrong saying “you can’t choose a scholarship instead of us” it should’ve never been an “us or them” situation. For confusing “plot holes” - Sharpay briefly mentions that Troy was on the high school golf team. Chad does baseball and track and field, hence their skills on the course and diamond. Troy knowing how to play and talking about it with the Redhawks made sense - Everyday number, and the moving ending (at least how I’ve made sense of it since I was 11 (when it came out)): After Kelsey hears Troy back out of Sharpay’s show, she plots with Ryan, Chad and the team to get Gabriella to come back and convinces her after relaying that he got his kitchen job back that Troy is “good again”. You were correct Everyday is the song they were previously practicing for the show, that Troy wasn’t apart of, but they just would’ve replaced Ryan’s vocal part and choreo with Troy, and Ryan takes an ensemble spot. That might be a lot to assume but it’s a musical so it’s not out of place. That’s how I take it anyway Pumped for #3!

Daniel Stergios

the way you rewind and go back to rewatch parts u missed is exactly how i rewind and go back to rewatch ur reactions haha cant wait for the hsm3 reaction!!

Jasmine Karaul

I need Troy to see that ryan and chad swapped clothes after their song haha

Emilia

The 2nd is the best of the 3, I’ve had this decision since 2008 and will die on this hill

Daniel Stergios

sharpay also has her own spin off movie.. "Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure" and hilariously her co star is Austin Butler

Emily Owens

omg yay i'm having a terrible day this will pass some time

destiney

"here's chad dancing with the girls" ... just u wait bestie, just u wait TT^TT

Remedialllll

I'm actually going to sob when he watches the third one, the ending makes me wanna cry every time

Jennie Evans

I Don’t Dance is unbeatable!!! SOOOO GOOD!!! I’m so excited for HSM3 and also kinda want to see a review of Vanessa’s debut album and both Camp Rock movies!!!!

fllyingstars

yes!!!

Emily

Can you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do an album review of Benson Boone’s Fireworks and Rollerblades? You will sob so hard I swear.

Harper

Wasn’t the mom in the first movie? She told them to stop playing basketball and get ready for the party and the lodge thing right??

Ariana

i will pay money for you to watch every cheetah girls movie frfr

veronica

hsm3 is the best for sure and anyone who says otherwise is lying to themselves lol

veronica

you should watch zac efron’s SNL sketch about high school musical. your commentary during “what time is it” is basically answered in that sketch, you’ll love it 😂

Jessica Summitt

also worth noting. the guy breakdancing in the hall at the beginning, you’ll notice in almost every number. he’s the other choreographer!!!

Jessica Summitt

i am SO excited to see you watch hsm3. this is such a hot take, but hsm3 is my favorite by far. it was made for theaters while the first two were made for TV, and the budget in the first scene alone is probably higher than the first two movies COMBINED. the sets, the acting, its all tuned up and its PERFECT.

Jessica Summitt

we need camp rock or descendants next !

mckenzie

was just gonna comment this! The song that's playing as Ryan and Sharpay drive into Lava Springs at the beginning!

Mar

chad and ryan changed clothes after the baseball game… which could mean nothing…

rebecca

their chemistry in “you are the music in me” ALWAYS GETS ME. when he’s on the piano laying down looking up at here i just rjiwbdiwndbxk

sam winterstein

fun fact, Corbin picked his own tshirts

holly sayeau

That song you love so much is You Got It by Lucas Grabeel, who plays Ryan.

Kristie

i have put this forth in the discord!! i would DIE watching troy react to it

sam winterstein

Yes! This was my first concert (I missed my DARE graduation for the concert lol) and was so sad when I heard Zac wasn’t going to be there. But then hairspray came out and I forgave him lol

Kayleigh Stiff

I was waiting and was sad when he didn’t say it either!! Especially when he was getting the flirty vibes at the start.

Kayleigh Stiff

You’re gonna LOVE the 3rd one, the budget increases MASSIVELY and it was released in cinemas so the camera work etc is INSANELY improved! It’s my favourite!

Courtney

Yes hairspray!! Especially because zac was filming hairspray during the HSM tour and so it’s still pretty early in his career and in the HSM hysteria

Kayleigh Stiff

I love that you do mental gymnastics over a disney movie lmaoooo cannot wait for HSM3!!

Kayleigh Stiff

I can’t believe he didn’t mention how they switched outfits… SO SAD

Paola

this one always felt like simply the what happens between 1 and 3 with good songs. Like, just some additional context, growth and character development for Ryan, and yeah. Just a summer romp basically. 3 is EPIC.

Tabby Waddell

TRULY my Roman Empire is the chemistry and implied tension between Ryan and Chad 😌🤭

Paola

being 7 years old and seeing them FINALLY kiss for the first time was an INSANE FEELING OF SO MUCH HYPE. like this movie was so pinnacle to elder gen z culture holy shit

Samantha Campbell

I would love to see you have a post HSM trilogy discussion with Ally Sheehan- certified HSM expert 💗

Maria

if they communicated better i think they would have been able to at least avoid some of the conflict but that wouldnt be for the plot B)

chie snaps

I feel like it’s important for you to know that theBet On It choreo was almost completely improvised

Meg

I loved watching this, thank you Troy! Also, I feel like you would enjoy watching Camp Rock!

TashP

Ah I love it! I only found and watched you watching the first HSM yesterday and then this came out today! Talk about good timing! I can't wait to see you watch the third one! I was obsessed with 'You are the music in me' and 'Everyday' from like age 11 when this came out and honestly i still love them now at 28!

Tayla Dennis

- there was a poll on the disney channel website so fans could vote who made a cameo in all for one (obviously miley won - hannah montana was huge at the time)! - kenny ortega just GETS musicals, his work is always phenomenal. - another banger video troy! would love to see a hairspray reaction (stacked cast - zac efron, amanda bynes, john travolta, christopher walken, james marsden, michelle pfeiffer, queen latifa - i could go on), and lemonade mouth, another disney classic!

jayde

When they did the High School Musical concert tour it had the whole cast besides Zac. They had Drew Seely preform as Troy.

Emily

My brother and I still do the yipty skipty bit on like a regular basis 😂

Meg

I’ve been waiting for THIS!!!!! Thank you for reacting

Yohaha

You should watch purple hearts

Ali G

Having managers who won’t let you sit is so real 💀

Meg

This was amazing, thank you! Can't wait for HSM3, they really step it up in that one (it's the only movie released in the cinema)

Jessica

omgggg after HSM we need the other iconic Descendants trilogy, also by our man Kenny !!

Sarah

just need the Johnny Valentine Rizz face after the wildcat rawr at the beginning. :)

Tabby Waddell

Also if you continue on this train of watching musicals may I recommend literally all of the starkid musicals. Like they put all of their professional productions up on Youtube for free and just got done with a 5 year long 3 show horror/comedy musical series. Like that's just the tip of the iceberg plus you'd be supporting other youtube channels!

Dippity_Dip

Never feel bad about pausing and going back for commentary! The amount of times I've watched movie/show reactors who just straight up skip over scenes or don't say anything about moments is frightening; the fact that you're showing you actively want to care about this dumb shit your audience likes is rly awesome and makes me even more glad I finally subbed to the patreon

Dippity_Dip

I was so excited for your reaction to “Bet On It” and you DID NOT disappoint 😂 I knew you would mention the flow change because it’s sooo goood!!

Vanessa McComb

Well now you HAVE to watch 3

TheHud257

you GOTTA do the camp rock movies after these!!! love ya 🫶🏼

Deborah Soriano

Please react to HSMTMTS (High School Musical: The Musical: The Series) with Olivia Rodrigo next!! It’s the perfect continuation after this. The music is so good. Olivia and Josh both wrote several songs for the show.

Annmarie Moore

- for the everyday scene i believe kelsey and ryan masterminded the whole duet with troy and gabriella which would get them back together, get back at sharpay and also allow all of them to perform - the miley cameo came from a vote online with the other options being jason earlse, emily osment and billy ray cyrus - there was also other things voted on for the movie like what chads shirt said and what skateboard trick troy would teach gabriella - some people like to think i don't dance is a hint at bisexualtty for chad because of the vibes lmao, chad and ryan also swap clothes after the scene -high school musical 3 is absolutely the best movie in the trilogy and i cannot wait to see you react to it

Mia Grundell

after HSM3 i'd love to see you react to Teen Beach Movie!!

Ali

I think imo it was obvi about him getting the scholarship but it was how it was approached to him and his decisions on how to move forward with it. Like we got the dialogue of his dad basically telling him that he needs to seize the opportunity no matter how it’s given to you therefore him ignoring his friends, never saying no to sharpay when he knew what she was doing, and him distancing himself from his friends . So I think the main plot was don’t step on your friends to get to the top lol. I really hope tht makes sense and this was my interpretation from it. Love the video! so good! I would say check out descendants (all three lol thy are so fun) and lemonade mouth

Tiana

there's a lot of posts that i don't dance is about bisexuality/chad being in denial about being queer. chad and ryan switched clothes after the number 👀

Ali

pleaseeeee react to burlesque its my fav musical

Abigail Johnson

I am desperate to see you watch Camp Rock

Samantha Hercules

I’d watch every movie with you, Troy 🫶 I was belly laughing the whole time and loved watching with you! You will love a lot of the 3rd one!

Samantha Hercules

agree w your overall assessment - the songs are INCREDIBLE and some of the most iconic musical moments in the trilogy are in this movie. however! definitely the weakest least compelling plot of the trilogy, so… this is more of a mindless watch compared to the other two. now the quality of the third movie, which was in movie theaters instead of disney channel… it’s just completely unparalleled. you’re not ready! anyway thanks for this FUN fun watch, revisiting these has been so great!

Georgie

yaaaaaaasss best patreon purchase i ever made, i love you dude. Your insight on the first movie made me fall back in love with the movie, i even changed my letterboxd rating from 2 star to 3 star ( lets not exaggerate its still a disney movie with soso acting and writing) But thank you so much❤️❤️❤️

Tim Leb

i can't wait to see your reaction to HSM3, in my opinion it's the best one, they really slayed with the production. and now that you're already into the whole disney musical movies i'd looove to see your reaction to the hannah montana movie, it's my absolute comfort movie and so much fun!!

Sarah

PLEASE WATCH HAIRSPRAY WITH ZAC IN IT

Kierra Smith

This is everything I thought it would be and more! Love every minute of this! Can’t wait for the next one. Your reaction to Bet on it was so real and perfect 😂 I was crying because I was laughing so hard!!

Megan K

And now I NEED you to watch The Greatest Showman to see Zac Efron all grown up!! It's soooooo good!!

Payton Leonard

2 things!! 1- Yes every club in the golf bag is important; depending on the golfer, you need every single one. They are all angled differently and go different distances when hit consistently, so that's why Sharpay's dad gives Troy praise for giving him the 5-iron because it was the correct distance for the shot; golf is definitely technical lol. 2- I love your videos sooo so much and need to see you watch the third movie (that does talk about college and all the growing up stuff more) like now!!! Thank you for all you do Troy!!! <3

Payton Leonard

Can’t wait for number 3

Mikayla Gilkerson

Troy you genuinely kill me I love you

Mikayla Gilkerson

After you finish 3, may I request lemonade mouth? It is so good

Laci Gold

Troy’s song in the 3rd movie is BY FAR the best song of the series. WATCH HSM 3 ITS THE BEST ONE IM TELLING U TROY 🙏🙏🙏

Mckenna Beaulieu

You should totally watch the greatest showman if you haven’t already

Daya K

- you're right that the ending doesn't make sense. It's like they brought up some really deep points about what kids go through at this point in their lives and then didn't see any of that stuff through. Like Troy and Gabriella didn't even reconcile before just starting to sing together? There are definitely some gaps. - the back to back combo of I Gotta Go My Own Way and Bet On It is everything to me. Best solos in the series imo. - it's very important that you know that Chad and Ryan have their outfits switched in that short scene after the baseball game. And I feel like Corbin Bleu and Lucas Grabeel have mentioned that they played it as a queer subplot among themselves even if Disney wouldn't actually see that through. - After HSM 3 I'd recommend other DCOMs especially the Cheetah Girls series and the Camp Rock series. Both have great music and absolutely wild plots and over-the-top everything.

Audrey

i NEED you to watch lemonade mouth it’s just so good

jules

i need you to know that chad and ryan switched clothes after the baseball game. fan theories are that they hooked up and the whole “I don’t dance/I say you can” is a huge euphemism for chad saying he isn’t gay and ryan is saying i bet you are

jules

I was just gonna say this. that scene is terrible lmao

SydR

you're gonna be gagged by HSM3. the increase in production is INSANEEEEE. its like the first two films on steroids

SydR

react to more musicals PLEASEEE!!! you should watch lemonade mouth, let it shine, la la land, hairspray, camp rock, and teen beach movie if you haven't seen any of those

SydR

Dude the merch rollout for this movie was insane when this came out. Like I literally had sharpay’s car and Troy’s necklace😂😂

kaylab23

I think once Troy's friends realized he owned up to his mistakes and stood his ground with Sharpay, they basically gave their talent show performance ("Everyday") to Troy and Gabriella to help them get back together again. Yeah, they sabotaged Sharpay's performance with Troy which kinda sucks and was confusing but I think the point was that they all came together again to resolve their relationship by merging their performances into one.

Julia Carlson

Was feeling kinda bad earlier and started HSM2 just to something happy. Just happened to check Patreon like five minutes in and saw your video was up! 😭 My night was 1000x better Also I def recommend Hairspray and Lemonade Mouth

Allison Harvey

Thank you for doing these reactions, these movies are so sentimental to my childhood so getting to rewatch them and watch you enjoy them as you see them for the first time has been so fun ✨💗

Caitlin Gradl

HSM 3 is literally my fave. I saw it in theaters my senior year with my high school best friends (baked af) and the nostalgia 🤌🏼

Rayne Erwin

You gotta hit up camp rock too 💀

Caitlin Gradl

You need to watch lemonade mouth after the next hsm the music is insane

Henry Ruland

Troy you genuinely being so much joy with these reactions

Rayne Erwin

omggg i'm loving these reactions!! it would be fun to have you react to the cheetah girls if you're interested lol

Emily

The Miley Cyrus cameo changed lives

Marli Kauffman

The higher production in the 3rd movie will absolutely blow your mind cant wait for you to watch it

Ryleigh Stone

i feel like i can recite this movie beginning to end bar for bar

Kym

Can’t wait for HSM3!!! It’s the best movie by far. Best music, plot, and cinematography because it was made in theaters.

Annmarie Moore

You should watch lemonade mouth!!

Taylor Wiens

the two troys for some of this is insanely funny its like my alter egos talking during the movie

Allison Jenkins

Loved it! I can't wait for you to watch HSM3.

Yanina Molina

WHAT ARE YOUuuuuuU DOING YOU FUCKIN* NERD ?!? 🤬 . Had me dead 🤣💀

Elsie

Tbh over time with this movie, I learned to not overthink it 😂 I remember being a kid and being disappointed that they didn’t get to do the choreography/show they had been planning with Ryan

Lily

I need Troy to react to the Trisha paytas cover of bet on it !!!

Emmy Peabody

i cannot WAIT for 3, it’s my favorite by far. it was the first one released in theaters instead of just on disney, and the production jump is INSANE

chloe

Hahaha I only noticed recently and after their sexual tension, it makes perfect sense!! How do they expect me to ship Chad with a woman after this enemies to lovers dance sequence??

Giorgia M

the fact that i’ve seen this movie a million times and today was the first time i noticed the outfit swap 😭

sam winterstein

overall this was so enjoyable and i am living for your movie reactions, cannot WAIT for hsm3 😭

sam winterstein

okay hiiiii so my understanding of the “Everyday” song/scene is: -troy tells sharpay off and that he won’t sing with her -kelsey witnesses this and tells everyone else (including gabriella) -since kelsey had said from the beginning her plan for the talent show was to have it revolve around troy and gabriella, they reverted back to that plan, but didn’t tell troy (to surprise him) -ryan was in on this plan and got his final lil revenge on sharpay for toying with him the WHOLE DAMN MOVIE by telling troy maybe he should actually sing with sharpay but that there was a “new song” to learn for it -sharpay was obviously not included on this plan, but the friends used this opportunity to get troy and gabriella back together through SONG (their love language) -the choreography done with the whole group towards the end of the song is the same as when we see them rehearsing earlier in the film -sharpay accepts the consequences of her actions and that ryan actually bested her (go ryan)

sam winterstein

yeah miley being there is cuz they had a voting thing on disney channel for who we wanted to have a cameo in the movie :))

taylor hopper

i knew you were going to love ‘Fabulous’ such a slay

taylor hopper

YAYYYY thank you for this!

Isabella Shelton

Im pretty sure I remember in behind the scenes interviews that the cast said the talent show scene near the end was actually filmed in super cold weather irl and they all had to act like it was just a warm summer night.

Grace Patton

I ADORED your facial expressions and all the witty commentary!!! I was belly laughing all the way through. This just made my night 🤗

Grace Patton

Begging for camp rock

Maryn

WOOOOOO been waiting for this one

Ryleigh Stone

i love all three movies so much but i am SO excited to see your reaction to hsm3 because it’s been my favorite of the trilogy since it came out and i really wanna see how you feel about it! also, recommendation for a disney movie with incredible music and a damn good plotline: lemonade mouth? maybe? i would sell my soul for this pls

ariona leilani

I always assumed it was originally multiple people got solos in the song but once they saw Troy step up, Ryan decided to change it to a duet and trick Sharpay cause she needed a reality check. Since there was enough time, they probably told Gabriella and she drove over. So yeah Ryan decides to trick Sharpay so she understands consequences 😂. And I assume the only choreo they got to do from their original plan was the part when the group comes in.

Amanpreet

Yeah same! The song they were rehearsing earlier as a group was Everyday so this was meant to be the song they all perform. They called Gabriella when they found out they could perform at the show afterall and Ryan used this as an opportunity to bring Gabriella and Troy back together (and maybe even teach his sister a lesson, who knows) :)

daisy_bey

I think for the end scene, it was more like yes they had a duet planned (prob Gabriella and Ryan), but they put Troy into the show after he came back to them in a sense. They were always planning that song because they were dancing to Everyday music in the rehearsal scene where all of them are dancing with Ryan. And sharpay simply got her karma but also was still embraced as a wildcat in the end. Sharpay also wanted to sing a song she stole from Troy and Gabriella in the first place, so to me it was perfect that Troy and Gabriella got to sing in the end. Sharpay was certainly meant to be the antagonist up to this point. The next movie certainly has other villains that sort of outway Sharpay. She just is the ultimate it girl and wants the ultimate it boy I think.

Nani

I remember watching the premiere of HSM2 with my sisters, eating cookies and chips. Now I get to watch it with Troy! ❤️

Allyson Hayes

Troy another musical suggestion: after hsm3, you could watch The Greatest Showman to see Zac sing and dance after all those years again! Hes really good in that one too! :)

daisy_bey

I would LOVE you to watch hairspray!!

Abbie 🩵

You should watch Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure after you see the 3rd one. Definitely nothing tops this one but it's a funny watch for sure.

nora wilson pratt

i love you dude. my meals are GLORIOUS before your content

bambi

I literally cannot contain my excitement for you to watch the next one. I need it like yesterday 😭

Leah Hodshire

I was hoping for Troy to mention it but when Zac and Ashley were singing "You are the music in me" their harmonies did not fit well together, which i assume was intentional, to indicate that this is not right/ they are not meant to sing this together (compared to Ryan&Sharpeys and Troy&Gabriellas harmonies being perfect when they sing together)...(or maybe im just over-interpreting this idk)

daisy_bey

Troy I actually can’t wait for you to see the production and musical genius of HSM3. You will be gagged

Nani

Troy Bolton coming in with the original dice roll in Bet On It LMAO

Nani

I don't know if Troy knows that Zac and Vanessa were dating through this

Alice Longhorn

I cannot wait until you see the 3rd one, it's on a different level. I remember watching it actually in the cinema and being very emotional

Alice Longhorn

The group were going to sing the final song together, but once Troy apologised and sorted things out they decided to use it as a chance to bring Gabriella and Troy back together. That's why only he had to learn it

Alice Longhorn

I think they all planned to perform the Everyday song without Troy originally, but then Ryan made a plan to get Troy and Gabriella back together and convinced her to come back. It’s actually never explained but that’s my hypothesis on the ending!

Kayla

I vividly remember voting for which Disney Channel star we wanted to see make a cameo in the finale and Miley winning lol

Andrew Atencio

Humuhumu JUMPSCARE Lol that part was a cut scene that was on the extended version.

Christopher Sanchez

You’re gonna die when you see how much better the production is on the third one.

Mercedes

I think it is important for you to know that HSM 3 was in theaters as well as on disney channel! I can't wait to see your reaction!!

Madison

also, fun fact: Kenny Ortega directed a Netflix series "Julie and the phantoms" (fantastic show and singing btw) and there's one character, Nick, that apparently has the last name "Danforth-Evans" .. which would be an homage to Chad and Ryan .. in a way 😌

christine.ro

That was an amazing reaction esp the “bet on it” part. I really enjoyed it ☺️ Yeah the storyline def doesn’t make sense sometimes but it’s a classic. Also the tea we learned during this video of Troy knowing how to break dance. The next one is senior year and talks a lot more of end of high school/college. We should hit some more Disney channel original movies!!

Alaina

not Troy clocking two songs from the third movie unknowingly 😂

christine.ro

I was waiting for the pond reflection during Bet On It the whole movie and was nottttt disappointed by your reaction 🤣🤣 so so funny!!!

Brianna

you are going to loooove the third one. best choreo, music, and cinematography BY FAR. also, if you haven't seen it, I think you should watch hairspray!!

Isabelle Garver

hi troy! Fun fact: humuhumu is a deleted scene that was only available on the DVD at the time! it never actually aired on TV hence why is feels like a fever dream

Alex Fisher

I imagine Troy shocked/happy noticing the Miley Cyrus cameo

Angelica

OH SHUT UP! what a way to kick off the weekend. thanks for taking the time to do this troy!

Sarah

i love that you forgot that troy’s mom was in the first movie too😭 shes at the beginning of hsm 1

noelle

idk if anyone said that in the comments for the first movie already but apparently, Lucas Grabeel (Ryan) and Ashley Tisdale (Sharpey) could not stand each other while filming these movies😭😂

daisy_bey

i’m still begging to know why chad and ryan switched clothes after the baseball game

Zabeth Bajlio

Yesss I was hoping you would watch this one quickly 😂 I needed this asap

Emily

the second troy was a jumpscare everytime for me

Bryn Mulligan

Also thank you for watching these movies, they are too nostalgic to watch alone so watching a reaction is easier 😂. I used to be obsessed with these movies, 3rd had a way bigger budget, was shown at the theater, also an exchange student was originally gonna be played by Selena Gomez but she was working on another film at the time. Also there is kinda a 4th movie but it’s only sharpay and about her having to move and live a life she’s not used to

Isaac128

OMG YES LEMONADE MOUTH!!

daisy_bey

hsm2 plot? kinda ass compared to the first one ngl...but the music? just exquisite...10/10 🤌😂 (except humuhumu thats just...yeah...)

daisy_bey

The ending is basically, the team doing something together with ryan since, Troy and sharply rejected them. But last minute they made up and I’m guessing convinced Gabriella to come back and so Troy had to learn the new song although everyone knew the song from practice.

Isaac128

Oh god YOU GOT THE VERSION WITH THE DELETED humunukuapua’a SCENE 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Maria

i watched your reaction to the first movie again today and was watching the second movie and was like "i can already imagine troys reaction to this" just to come on patreon to see u actually did uploaded your reaction to it kajsdhfkd

daisy_bey

Hsm3 is gonna be such an insane jump for you 😂😭

Amanpreet

That's so true!

Kassandra Velasquez

Actually I lied about Chad’s tshirt being my fave part, it’s the gay subplot of Chad and Ryan swapping clothes with each other on the baseball pitch lol

Giorgia M

At the beginning Troy is giving Phil dunphy lol

Petra Marie

My favourite thing about these movies are chad’s tshirts. I think Corbin Bleu was making them himself :))) just so fuckin funny to me I love him

Giorgia M

ok Im geeking out about HSM and commenting too much but just wanted to add Zac recently revealed he improvised the whole "bet on it" dance number and they shot the whole thing under 2 hours

TN300

btw the lyrics to the song "I don't dance" have very much double meaning that were unfortunately not fully explored due to disney being homophobic towards ryans character, direct quote from kenny ortega "I took it upon myself to make choices that I felt that those who were watching would grab. They would see it, they would feel it, they would know it, and they would identify with it. And that is what happened."

TN300

I’m screaming I just knew from your pause you were gonna say human centipede 💀

Mads

The scream I screamed when I realized it was the extended version with humuhumunukunukuapua

Madison

Also you totally need to watch Let It Shine and Lemonade Mouth the music is top tier 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Autumn Barnett

It’s hilarious to me that you never noticed Troy’s mom in the beginning of the first movie 😭 Unfortunate tho she gets barely any screen time

Autumn Barnett

LETS GOOO just in time for me to clean thanks king

Mads

when i say this one and the third one are my favorite even though they're all iconic and also kenny ortega had them working hard with the choreography 😭

Marissa

yes exactly “we’re playing basketball”

taylor hopper

we're eating this month

Leah ✨

Just finished watching the first one, was so sad I would have to wait for the second one....... got this notification and might CRY

Madison

emma 🌷

WE CHEEEREDDD

noelle

Yeees!! We need to do more Disney. (Me pecifically wanting Austin & Ally reactions lol)

Kyrie

and yesss we definitely want you to watch actual movies on this channel, at least once in a while when there's nothing much interesting going on in the music scene

TN300

troy don’t worry about the plot, it never made sense in the first place, the whole movie is just vibes singing/dancing😭

TN300

I LITERALLY JUST FINISHED WATCHING UR FIRST REACTION😭 I am SO excited
