The flashy tyres and stuff during Greased Lightning could bring on a migraine.

Is it for kids? And will they keep the naughty bits in? You know, it's difficult to pass off 'The chicks'll cream' and 'pussy wagon' as something else when it's written up in giant sparkly letters on screen.

If this gets Figgy going I'm coming to kill you TK.

Carrie raises an excellent and hilarious point.

That ain't no shit.

Just for you I have discovered:

'Greased Lightnin’ – This song being one of the most lyrically graphic in the film had a unique way of making the on-screen lyrics remain family friendly. Words of color were replaced on-screen with animations that visually suggested the original word that would allow for kids not to understand the meaning, but adults to fully comprehend the sexual undertones.'

Someone go see it and take screen caps. What exactly are they going to 'animate'??

I'm lame as hell so I'd go to this and I already know all the lyrics so they don't have to bother with the singalong words.

You must go to this movie TK. I don't even have to see you there or read a RTR because I can already imagine how it would go. I just want to know it happened.

[I really should do some work today.]

When I was 10, I thought "the chicks will cream" meant they would put on face cream to help make themselves look pretty. All of that stuff went right over my head; my mother, on the other hand, was horrified when she got me a book about the movie and made the effort to read it.

Watch that trailer again

I'm not falling for that. You can't make me watch it again.

Sing-along is the fourth dimension.

Can't wait for the Star Wars Quote-Along Special Edition release.

TK, since Dustin even suggested this to you, he has to move to the top of your list. It's clear he hates you.

Maybe if this was Grease 2, I'd be interested.

FINE, SHUN ME, I DON'T EVEN CARE.

Cooooool rider. A coo-ooo-ooo-oool rider...

FINE, SHUN ME, I DON'T EVEN CARE.

Well who the fuck doesn't love "Grease 2"?

I'd LOVE to see the "suggested animation" for "You know that ain't no shit, you'll be gettin' lots of tit". Bad enough to see the word "scream" squirting.

I love Grease, and I don't even mind the idea of a Grease sing-along. I wish they still had drive-ins for movies like this. I do HOWEVER really wish that sing-along captions weren't done by Lisa Frank or whatever weirdo decided to doodle all over the original film. This is nauseating.

I loved Grease, I thought Grease 2 was really dumb to make a movie, even if they did have Frenchy, Dody Goodman, and Eve Arden, which was the only thing that saved it. I love Eve Arden, she was great in "Our Miss Brooks," and other things as well. (if you're wondering how old I am, I'm 22)

I saw Grease in the theater when I was 7 years old. Had the album, listened to it incessantly, and ruined the necklines of many a shirt by pulling it down around my shoulders to be like "bad" Sandy at the end. My parents must've known what they were doing though, because it wasn't until 15-20 years later when I finally realized, "They're saying *what*!!??"

they did have Frenchy, Dody Goodman, and Eve Arden

Yes but you're forgetting Craterface!

Wha? THOSE are the words to Greased Lightning? Well cream my jeans with a air rifle, I had no idea.

Yeah, I personally advocate Grease 2 as the worst movie ever made. While I know there are certainly compelling arguments for other movies taking that title, I will defend Grease 2 as "The Worst" with my dying breath.

Put me in the crowd of "saw Grease when I was really young and all the innuendo stuff went clear over my head." But man, seeing it when I was older was like, "What? WHAT? Wait, they said what??! Fuggin' awesome."

I love the hell out of Grease, but who the fuck would go to this? Like I don't have ENOUGH fun watching it at home and singing along (and dancing!) to it at the top of my lungs? Like Jay said, who doesn't do that already?! I don't want some attention whore in a theater making me feel embarrassed for them.

This film makes me want to pull a Rothko.

Someone go see it and take screen caps. What exactly are they going to 'animate'??

Done. I saw this about two weeks ago. (It was awesome, I loved it and I'll take no judgment for that. And yes, I did dress up). They animate things like putting cartoon devil ears on Rizzo's head when she sings "There are worse things."

They also animate the words for each song. Like when Danny is singing that boring song after trying to feel Sandy up at the drive-in, they have a hot dog and a bun bounce on the words (it's from the cartoon on the movie screen behind him). For "Grease Lightning" (which I've never known the words to until this), they sensor it quite a bit. It's definitely "scream" instead of "cream" and they put "#$*@$#!" for "shitting." I don't remember what they did for "tit" or "pussy wagon" but they censored it somehow because I still didn't know those were the real words until this.

All in all, it was a fun experience except there was this bitch next to me who kept saying every line. Not the song lines (that's expected), the dialogue. Like what the principal announces over the loud speaker. She's lucky I didn't slap her. Plus, how big a fan could she be if she didn't even dress up?

TK, if you snap and murder Dustin (appparently he fucked up his own suicide), it will be ruled justifiable homicide.
