The post Um, A Stranger Things Scene Matches This High School Musical Moment Frame-By-Frame appeared first on PEDESTRIAN.TV .

fans have noticed that one of the episodes in season four bears a striking resemblance to an emotional scene from . The best part is, it was probably intentional, too. TikTok user shared an edit they made comparing the two scenes to each other by playing them side by side. The scene is from season four, when Will confronts Mike and has an emotional chat with him in the arcade. Meanwhile, the scene is from when Troy and Gabriella sing “Gotta Go My Own Way” together on a bridge. As a kid, that scene always wrecked me. Honestly, it still holds up. Have a look at the edit below and tell me that these scenes aren’t literally the same. The blue lighting? The hair? I am shooketh. Apparently, the video above isn’t exactly how the scene plays out, and has been edited to fit the scene better. Technicalities aside the scenes are honestly very similar visually. My favourite fact about this discovery is that the writers have actually confirmed that they were purposely studying while making season four. They revealed that HSM was inspo as part of their Video Store Friday series. “Every friday, I will list five movies the writers talked about during the week,” one of the Stranger Things writers wrote on the Stranger Writers Twitter account. “All of these movies relate in some way or another to season four! Are you ready or what demonerds?” So you’re telling me that this scene could have actually been directly inspired by Troy and Gabriella? I can’t stop laughing at the idea, but I’m also crying? Even though Will deserves someone better than Mike, I can’t help but ship it.
