History Trivia / HighSchoolMusical

* MeaningfulReleaseDate: Defied by the second film, which revolves around the cast during their summer vacation. All the hype from Disney regarding their biggest TV tentpole event of the year regarding kids having fun on summer vacation… and the release date was mid-late August 2007, when kids were either already just returning to school or they were on the eve of returning to school. The final number “All for One” even mocked kids watching at the time with the lyric “our summer has just begun”. Disney definitely trolled their audience on that one!
