We said what we said. The sequel is better than the original, and we lay out why 'Grease 2' deserves its time in the sun.
In 1971, the musical Grease written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey took Broadway by storm. Nostalgia for the 50s was just taking off and Grease certainly capitalized on that. The story is about the senior year of 1959 at Rydell High. A new transfer student from Australia and a stereotypical good girl, Sandy, has fallen in love with the head of the tough street gang the T-Birds, Danny.
The Cast The cast of Grease 2 may have some big names in hindsight, but at the time, they were relatively unknown. The biggest names at the time were 60s heartthrobs, Tab Hunter and Connie Stevens as well as a few appearances from the 1978 film This certainly didn’t help the box office numbers, although, it was the first major role for a lot of actors' careers. Some of their careers grew into stardom such as Michelle Pfeiffer and Pamela Adlon and some did not.
“Reproduction” is a straight-up banger. Led by Tab Hunter as the substitute teacher, it is a clever song filled with double entendre about the reproduction process of flowers and animals and yet somehow exploring the concept of consent. And the big group number “Score Tonight” is fun with a contagious hook. I would also challenge you to try to get “Girl For All Seasons” out of your head once you watch the movie. Trust me, it will never leave.
The Message Nobody changes who they are to be with someone. Stephanie fantasizes about a cool rider, sure, and when Michael hears this he decides to learn how to ride a motorcycle. Does he change who he is or does he just broaden his horizons? Because when Stephanie and the rest of the school find out Michael is the mystery guy, she is overjoyed since she had already kind of fallen for Michael. So, now she has everything all in one.
