The cast of High School Musical reunited on Disney Channel for the 10th anniversary of the movie. This event included the core six cast members, excluding Zach Efron. The kickoff started at 8pm with the showing of the original High School Musical.
In between the movie, during commercials, the cast would get together in the old East High Gym and talk about their most memorable moments when shooting. They looked at old casting videos with all six of them, rehearsal videos and old outfits that they used to wear. It was a lot of laughs and you could definitely tell that the cast missed being together.
One thing that kind of shocked me was how short it was. The get together of the cast only lasted about two or three minutes and there were only three or four segments. I thought it was going to include a lot more talking and looking back on such memorable times in their lives while making this movie.
I think fans such as myself were a little disappointed at this reunion. One reason being that our favorite boy was missing but mostly because it did not feel like much of a reunion after all. High School Musical was such a huge part of everyone’s childhood whether they will still admit it now or not. At one point, we knew all the words, all the dance moves and even wished we had a relationship like Troy and Gabriella’s.
Nothing against Disney Channel or anything, but I think they could have done a better job at trying to have a reunion. Although it was short, it was still nice to see something happening to honor the movie that changed us Disney kids forever. Hopefully they will have more reunions coming in the future because either way I will still be watching.
