Funny / High School Musical 2

Go To

  • "Bet On It". The lyrics are serious but Troy's actions while singing them are not. The music video of it, played during commercials at the time, only increases the funny factor.
    • It's a dramatic and angst-ridden solo dance number about facing up to your mistakes and confronting the problems in life, taking place entirely on a luxury golf course. At one point, Troy kneels down in a sand trap and sifts the sand dramatically through his hands.
  • Troy and Sharpay's rehearsal of "You're the Music in Me". The look on Troy's face throughout the entire thing is just hilarious.
    Troy: Sharpay, I know I promised you I would do this and all but go easy on me? I'm kinda new to the whole performing thing.
    Sharpay: *nods understandingly* 5, 6, 7, 8! *FIREWORKS ERUPT*
  • And after the performance is over, Troy imagines Sharpay in a wedding dress.
    Troy: *clearly overwhelmed* I think I need some air.
  • Troy's reactions to Humuhumunukunukuapua'a are equally hilarious. He looks absolutely confused and terrified.
    • Towards the end of the song, Sharpay brings Troy onstage and tries to get him to sing the last verse. Troy just says "No way."
    • Then Ryan appears dressed like the hula dancers as if he wants to join in for the finale. He's told no and spends the rest of the number stomping around the stage with a hilariously upset look on his face.
    • Really the number has to be seen to appreciate just how completely insane it is. The number includes Ryan dancing in a fish costume, a freestyle rap interlude, and "fish talk" that sounds like something Dory would say. Seriously, at one point Ryan actually gurgles. He then throws his drink off stage.
    • At the end Ryan, still horribly upset, steals the crown from Troy's head and puts it on. He then holds his hand out. Troy is baffled but then drops the flower lei in his hands. Satisfied, Ryan goes back to sulking.
    • Honestly, just the fact that the Disney+ release was the first place many people had even seen this part of the movie. They're often just as baffled as Troy was.
  • "I Don't Dance", while doubling as Awesome Music, fits here for the sheer amount of Ho Yay between Chad and Ryan.
    "I'll show you how I swing!"
    • Not to mention the hypocritical humor of Chad emphatically stating "I don't dance!"... while taking part in several elaborate dance numbers.
  • From an outtake instead of the actual movie. Sharpay drives up in a pink golf cart, Troy gets in, and then....it won't go. So Troy gets out, gets on his knees, and starts pushing it.
    Zac Efron: Put it in forward!
    Ashley Tisdale: It is!
  • Troy and Chad Skipping
  • Sharpay blowing up at Fulton for letting Gabriella and Troy's friends also work at Lava Springs. She then goes off to complain to her mother - aka, the Lava Springs board - who is doing yoga and is totally unmoved by Sharpay's fury. In frustration, Sharpay tells Ryan to talk to Mrs. Evans. Ryan cheerfully says "Hi, mom," and then joins in the yoga routine.
  • Troy with some of the junior golfers, one of whom is throwing balls with his hands until Troy gives him a club; another who is holding hers upside-down; and another who is just hitting the turf repeatedly with his club.
    Troy: Good job, killer. Make the ball fear you.
