+801 Probably the reason that Zac Efron is so much more successful than other former Disney stars is because he hasn't tried to make a career out of singing. He just sticks to acting. amirite?

admit it, you can't take a Zac Efron movie too seriously because of High School Musical.

I always thought he got a bad rap for High School Musical. He's not a bad actor, after all.

i think you mean bad REP. and no, he really isn't that good.

"Bad rap definition: n. a false criminal charge. (Underworld. The same as bum rap.) : Freddy got stuck with a bad rap. n. unjustified criticism. : Butter has been getting sort of a bad rap lately."

Both are correct. You can say that he's been getting unjustified critism ^^^, or you can say he got a bad reputation because of High School Musical.

Umm... yeah, actually I can. Have you seen Charlie St. Cloud? Or any of his movies other than High School Musical? He's a good actor. You can't judge an actor based on one movie they do.

i have seen 17 again, he sucked. and why the hell would i go and watch some bullshit like Charlie St. Cloud?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

17 Again had an awful script. It's not necessarily his fault. Sandra Bullock was bad in All About Steve, but that doesn't make all of her films bad.

i never saw all about steve. and why are you comparing sandra bullock to zefron?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

EXACTLY!!! "how can you compare sandra bullock to zac efron?" well if you had seen All About Steve you would know that she did absolutely suck in that movie. The whole movie sucked. And you can say the same thing about HSM and, in your opinion, 17 Again, even though I'm almost positive you had already decided that you hated him and wouldn't let yourself like it, because it was a good movie. And Sandra Bullock is one of my favorite actresses. Just cause she had one bad movie doesn't mean she's a shit actress. Same for Zac Efron.

and a good actor would have been able to make the movie good, even if the script sucks.

What's so bad about Charlie St. Cloud? I liked it even though it was freaking sad :/

by Anonymous 13 years ago

It's not his fault about HSM, He needed a big break, and he got it. Atleast he made an effort, and got somewhere.

Don't hate on Headmaster Zefron, guys.

You are awesome!

I wouldn't exactly call him successful yet. His last two movies were flops.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I would just like to say that I enjoyed 17 Again.

me too! :)

also, he's a hunk.

He was pretty emo in Charlie St. Cloud. Granted, his character's brother died in an accident which he blamed himself for. It was just weird seeing him ACTING and not putting on a show (HSM).

Ehh. I don't hate Zac Efron, but I'm not a fan of his acting myself. I can agree with the "more successful" than other Disney stars, but I don't think it's because he didn't try out a singing career. The singing thing in HSM seemed to be what really made him popular with the young people 'round where I live, but the fact that he didn't pursue it doesn't really seem to make a difference, IMHO. Also, I thought Bullock was hilarious in All About Steve, though the movie itself wasn't so good~

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Didn't he have someone sing his parts in the first HSM?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

yes, drew seeley did troy's songs i believe

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Nah, the reason he's so successful is because the Zefron poster was a Horcrux. AVPM, anyone?
