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!

Hands up who has watched this tonight?

Op can you add a vote after your initial post?

JohnsShirt · 04/12/2022 23:03

I absolutely have, and I'm not even ashamed 😄

Grease 2 wins hands down purely because it doesn't give out the shit message to girls that you need to change everything about yourself to get the boy.

MrsJacksonAvery · 04/12/2022 23:10

How has nobody (unless I've missed it) mentioned the Reproduction song??? 'Baby, give it to me now!' So awful, it's brilliant!

Grease 2 is amazing for all of the wrong reasons. Paulette and Johnny were as badly cast as Sonny in Grease 1.

But Grease will always be better.

Fun fact for the Grease super nerds:

Marty wears a purple and white pencil skirt in Grease that Sharon then wears in Grease 2.

Finally, a Mumsnet thread I can actually get on board with.

My sister and I used to watch Grease 2 all. the. time. as kids (also on hard rotation was Carry On Screaming 🤷🏻‍♀️).

Reproduction, Score Tonight, Girl For All Seasons - all classics. And the GFAS costumes are perfection.

I’ve also just remembered that we incorporated Back To School into our leavers play in P7 🤪

So yes, Grease 2 is superior in every way.

It really is.

Theres also a stray penis that comes out to say hello if you look closely

LydiaBennetsUglyBonnet · 04/12/2022 23:32

Also

WAAAAAAAHHAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAHAAAAAA

If you know, you know

Notsurenotquiteright · 04/12/2022 23:43

I prefer grease 2.

Although all I hear when I see the guy is ‘sexy rexy’

PurpleButterflyWings · 04/12/2022 23:45

Is this a wind up @AspireMe ? Grease 2 is SHIT. Confused

BeyondTheLetterOfTheLawTheLetter · 04/12/2022 23:52

I never knew that I could be so... cool 🤓

BeyondTheLetterOfTheLawTheLetter · 04/12/2022 23:52

Wo oh oh

velvetiserenthusiast · 04/12/2022 23:54

Where does the pollen go?

I loved them both for different reasons, and the winds are brilliantly catchy in both films as well.

I'd actually forgotten how funny the lyrics of the songs in Grease 2 are, so this is a great reminder...I'll be your girrrrrrrl for all seasons...

Starseeking · 05/12/2022 01:20

*the songs are brilliantly catchy

👀 What? I watched it last night. Where was this stray penis? Not that I'm into looking at penii penises.

LydiaBennetsUglyBonnet · 05/12/2022 13:56

@DepIndoChridmadWidMe 13 minutes in. You can see him trying to tuck it back in

Grease 2 is miles better, Michelle Pfeiffer singing Cool Rider is 😍 My best mate and I used to watch it all the time as kids. The original Grease I could take or leave.

bowchicawowwow · 05/12/2022 17:37

Grease 2 is the best!
'Who's that guy, than man on the cycle... what would they say if they knew it was Michael?' Is my fave line Smile

TastesLikeFlavourlessFizz · 05/12/2022 18:00

I’ve been saying this since I first saw them as a kid! It’s so superior to Grease!

🎶 I want a coo-oo-oo-ool rider. 🎶

I cried because my dad taped over Grease 2! 😂 He promised to buy me a copy but never did and I held it against him until I was in my 30s and my mother bought me the DVD for Christmas!

I've defo seen Grease 2 but can't remember it, which probs says something.

Rotten Tomatoes lists an aggregate critic rating of 76% for Grease 1 and 35% for the sequel, so it seems the consensus is that the second film is something of a turkey in comparison.
