To be horrified by people that don't think Grease 2 is better than Grease?

How do these people generally function in life? Grease 2 is clearly the superior film over Grease. It features the Pink Ladies Pledge for crying out loud!

We’re gonna sco-o-ore ton-i-ight

The reproduction number is one of my favourite things ever.

I love Grease 2 mainly because of Maxwell Caulfield, but sadly it will never be the classic that Grease 1 is.

And I know it's hard to believe but there are actually people out there who don't know that there is a Grease sequel 😮

WomanStanleyWoman2 · 04/12/2022 18:11

Grease 2 is shite. I remember loving Grease when I was young and being so excited to find out there was a sequel… then I saw it.

AnyOldThings · 04/12/2022 18:11

Grease = classic piece of culture
Grease 2 = embarrassingly cringey weak cheese fest 🤷‍♀️

@AspireMe, I want you to take a deep breath and sit down for this.

I've never seen Grease 2 on purpose

I really like Grease 2 and regularly find myself humming a Girl for all Seasons. It does have its moments though. The song trying to coerce the girlfriend into sex before marriage is a bit hmmmmm

America is calling, let's care enough to give our very best.
For if we give our very best,
I know that we will more than pass the test.
If I could have three wishes, I'd wish that you'd live free,
I'd wish for amber waves of grain from sea to shining sea.

Yeah, let's do it for our country, the red, white, and the blue.
It's Uncle Sam who's asking, so your mother will approve.
Tomorrow I'll be fighting, and I'll win this war for you.
Let's do it for our country, our country wants us to.

Bullets are exploding, they'll soon be at the door,
Give something to America you never gave before.
Yeah, let's do it for our country, the red, white, and the blue,
If the President were standin' here, I'm sure he would approve.
I'll be a mighty soldier before this night is through.
Let's do it for our country, our country wants us to.

(Spoken)
Just think about it -- it would be like as if we were doing it for the Statue of Liberty, or the Grand Canyon, or the New York Yankees... it would be like as if we were doing it for... Disneyland!

Yeah, let's do it for our country, the red, white, and the blue,
It's not a lot to ask of us, our parents will approve.
Tomorrow I'll be fighting, and I'll win this war for you.
Let's do it for our country, (spoken) we owe it to our country.
Let's do it for our country, our country wants us to.

If the technology was available I'd slap you through the screen for saying that.

I love Grease 2…..the songs are fab! I was listening to them yesterday 😆 Michael is hot

BeyondTheLetterOfTheLawTheLetter · 04/12/2022 18:16

Generally I'm on the grease 2 side, but I had completely blocked forgotten "lets do it for our country" 🤮

Instead I'm gonna stick with the cooo-ooo-ooo-oool rider 😎

JohnsShirt · 04/12/2022 18:16

Let's bowl, let's bowl let's rock and roll, hey c'mon let's get this show on the road.
Grease 2 is definitely the better one.

I see your divide and conquer tactics for what they are, Grease 1 fan.

"I'm not breaking my nails"
I have lovely nails and I agree with Paulette.

I LOVED Grease 2 as a child!

TildaRae · 04/12/2022 18:21

Love grease 2. The soundtrack is a regular on my Spotify when I’m doing housework! ‘Who’s that guy’ pipping cool rider to the top spot!

Apparently they forgot about Didi Conn’s role, that’s why she’s only in the first part!

Benjaminsniddlegrass · 04/12/2022 18:21

Hey Paulette, take a look over here, I'm a kingpin honey and I'm gettin in gear....

I absolutely adore Grease 2...but I absolutely adore Grease too!

Lib3rtine · 04/12/2022 18:21

Grease 2 is far better! I watched it constantly when I was young and used to be in love with Louis DiMucci! 😂

Georgeskitchen · 04/12/2022 18:29

I didn't even realise there was a Grease 2, unless I've just forgotten. I can't believe anything could beat the original Grease, especially without John Revolting and Olivia Neutron-Bomb 😉😉

Yes. Yes!
The bowling alley bit is my favourite 😍

AlwaysGinPlease · 04/12/2022 18:33

Grease 2 for me too! Maxwell Caulfield was just so beautiful to look at. I was mad about him. Might look up a clip now actually so I can swoon all over again.

Sheldoncoopersspot · 04/12/2022 18:34

But where does the pollen go? 😁

MilkyWaytoday · 04/12/2022 18:35

The T bones!!! Grease 2 is hilarious and the sings way more catchy.
