High School Musical 3 - 245 Days and Counting to the End

It seems that we've reached the ultimate news that, unfortunately, the High School Musical series will be coming to a close this year. Kenny Ortega, the highly successful director of all three HSM stories noted, "This will be our last time together, and I love working with these kids so much." It looks like there won't be a High School Musical 4 in our future (at least with these actors and director).

With October 24, 2008 approaching quickly, Disney has one last chance to push the concept, cast and crew into super-stardom. (I wouldn't be too sure about that. If the film is a success there's no telling what kinds of spin-offs there might be - reunions, dramas, etc.)

In High School Musical 3:Senior Year the plan is to have Troy and Gabriella at a crossroads in their relationship with separation looming - "facing the prospect of being separated from one another as they head off in different directions to college. Joined by the rest of the Wildcats, they stage an elaborate spring musical reflecting their experiences, hopes and fears about their future."

This should be great - but a sad moment to know that we're at only 245 days and counting til the end.
