Can we just accept reality?



Both movies are bad. We are just arguing which one is the least bad, and that is indeed The Room

It’s not like the original T-Birds were the baddest dudes either. Two somewhat rough guys and three bone heads who couldn’t have fought their way out of a wet paper bag.

Yeah, but they were good for their fake musical cool guy roles (not the dork side guys). Grease 2 they were bad actors and complete losers. They had nothing "cool" about them.

Kenickie would've fricked those Grease 2 losers up.

No doubt, and I’m not 100% sold on Travolta being a bad arse outside of smoking.




Which anyone over the age of 8 did in the 1950s.

15+ yrs ago I read a post online that claimed many well known actresses in their 30s and older were available to be, er, procured.

Unfortunately among the names listed the only one I recall is Janine Turner, former star of Northern Exposure*. I also recall her pricee was 10K per weekend, as opposed to 5K for most of the others.



*Personally I never found her hot

Supposedly Crawford herself claimed the only Hollywood actress who did not use the casting couch was Bette Davis

It worked for men too, FWIW. That's how James Dean got his breakthrough Broadway role, also Warren Beatty through playwright William Inge.

There are all sorts of rumors about NY method actors like Brando (Tennessee Williams) and Paul Newman, as well as Hollywood types like Alan Ladd, Aldo Ray, Forrest Tucker, and even Robert Mitchum.

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.

I first saw this movie when I was like 7 years old.

My mom rented it for me, my sister and my sister's friend to watch one night.

My sister's friend's mom flipped shite about it, she was so mad that my mom rented this movie for us to watch because of all the sexual innuendo.

I didn't even understand what the whole "Let's do it for our country" scene was about until I was much older. Same with reproduction, let's bowl tonight, and all the other songs that were actually about sex.

My dad loved Michelle Pfeiffer, so Grease 2 was the one we would watch.

In any other scenario, Grease is better.

Always enjoyed 2 more. I think most men perfer seeing the role reversal of a male and Phiefer was a hottie.

Also 2 was more edgy with a lot more adult humor. Still funny to watch today.

Grease is forever a classic in my mind. Grease 2 on the other hand is rather uninspiring and I barely even remember anything about the movie. I just never enjoyed it that much.
