Re: Chinese remake of "High School Musical"

I'm definitely interested in this. I'm a huge fan of HSM, and I have no doubt that Disney will do a good job with it. I'd prefer if they used original songs, of course, as it'd be slightly obnoxious to just hear covers of the ones we already have. Not that I'm likely to get too into them, either way...

I think people are over-glamorizing the olden-days movies and shows. Sure, for sentimental reasons, people often get attached to the era they grew up in.
