10 More Sequels That Totally Ruined The Previous Movie's Ending
8. Sharpay Learns Nothing - High School Musical 2
The first High School Musical movie was nothing short of a sensation when it premiered on the Disney Channel in 2006.
It became the most successful Disney Channel Original Movie ever made, so of course a sequel was going to get produced. Lo and behold, just one year later, along came High School Musical 2.
This movie moved the action away from East High and onto an exclusive resort, where the various characters work summer jobs to earn money. Whilst the location changed, one thing sadly didn’t - the characterisation of Sharpay Evans.
Sharpay, the bratty mean girl played by Ashley Tisdale, spends most of the first film doing everything she can to undermine Troy’s love interest Gabriella. However, through the power of music and friendship, she ends the movie on good terms with her one-time nemesis.
Come HSM2, however, and Sharpay is right back to her petty, arrogant ways. It’s as if the events of the previous movie never happened, as she is just as horrible to people as she was when that film started.
All that character development wasted in the first few minutes.
