Enlarge PhotoHigh School Musical 3 isn't even out yet but it is already breaking box office records in the UK.
The third instalment of the hugely successful Disney franchise has taken record advance bookings. The film, which stars real life sweethearts Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens, had already sold £500,000 worth of tickets ahead of its release on October 22.
Odeon's Chief Executive, Rupert Gavin, said, "Our cinemas have been inundated with calls to pre-book tickets for what could be the year's biggest kids and teen audience movie.
"With schools breaking up for half-term just as High School Musical 3 opens, we are bracing ourselves for a huge first week run," he added.
The ticket sales easily beat previous record holder 2005's Harry Potter and The Goblet Of Fire, which had take nearly £250,000 at the same stage.
The stars of High School Musical 3 are expected to attend next Tuesday's UK premiere of the eagerly awaited movie.

It's doing pretty good... and it hasn't even come out yet. Pre-ordering tickets is a great idea for these upcoming flicks. Updated On: 10/3/08 at 07:14 PM

This is very, very sad news. I didn't think I'd be sadder about something today than Hairspray closing. And I actually liked the first High School Musical movie, in a campy, off-the-wall, cheesy sort of way. Also, are Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens really "real-life sweethearts?" I seem to remember they pretended to date for the presses awhile ago, but I didn't think anyone still bought that.

How much do you bet the Jonas Brothers are going to make a guest-appearance?

However... I'm confused about what this has to do with Broadway.

Well, it is a musical and BWW seems to post news about it as well.

There was a rumor that David Archuleta would make a guest appearance but IDK. The Jonas Brothers wlll be in their own movie that will be in 3D like the Hannah Montana concert.

Rereading my post, I sound like a jerk. I'm sorry about that!

About the Jonas thing, I was just remembering how Miley Cyrus made a two-second cameo appearance in HSM2... I wouldn't be surprised if at least one of the JoBros is walking down the hall in one shot or something like that.

That's true... or Miley again. But I think she was filming the new Hannah Montana movie during the filming of HSM3.
