Which is ironic with how long that insidiously catchy theme song has been around.

There was a sequel to Grease released in 1982, starring Michelle Pfeiffer in her first major film role. I had no idea.

The film was so bad that Pfeiffer really struggled to land another role afterwards and it nearly sunk her career, with Brian De Palma refusing to let her audition for Scarface until a producer bent his arm.

When I was like 12 I had an Internet Girlfriend from Canada and she loved Grease 2.

I really wonder whatever happened to her. Tragic she and I didn't work out.

I like to watch CinemaSins and Honest Trailers for all the movies I'm curious about but don't want to watch. It's like Cliff's Notes with commentary notes to use in conversation to "prove you watched it."
Also the male lead went on to play Rex Manning in Empire Records, and that is the extent that I know of his career. Grease 2 was awful. Grease was mostly awful.

The VHS box of Grease 2 deliberately put the "2" way the hell up where it might easily be missed. My first job was at a video rental place and it wasn't uncommon for customers who hadn't looked at the box very closely to come back, angrily demanding the real movie instead of whatever the hell cheap poo poo sequel this was.

People overstate how bad Grease 2 was, even if it's true that it doesn't hold a candle to the original. If nothing else, I always thought the opening number was pretty catchy:

e: Michelle Pfeiffer was obviously miscast but she makes up for it by being really hot

Her first really big job was as a main cast member on the TV version of Animal House.

I was wondering if "Aw shucks" was also a type of taboo deformation but it's probably not? It apparently comes from "shuck" which meant "something valueless"

I think it's funny that the number one stereotypical French saying, the one any American will say if you ask them to immitate a French accent, is itself a minced oath for "sacré dieu"

I’m poo poo at judging amounts so when I make omelettes they frequently become ‘fried cheese with a light egg coating’.
