[@leticiadiaz7805]

Maxwell Caulfield. Hot!!

[@SnowdropWood]

Thank you for uploading, I've loved Grease 2 my whole life and I had no idea this event took place. What a great bunch of people. It's a shame 'Louis' (Peter Frechette) wasn't there, he's my favourite character.

[@Momo-qy4ub]

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this movie!!! I've watched it well over 100x. At least that's when I stopped keeping track. I can barely remember the names of my neighbors but I know EVERY word to EVERY song in this movie! Lol I could seriously recite the whole movie verbatim ;)) This movie has given me so so much joy since I was 12 years old... I'm in my forties now and it is STILL to this day my favorite movie of all time! I wish I had known and could have attended this screening... Altho I might have peed my pants from excitement! THANK U THANK U for the music, laughs, and most importantly happiness this movie brings to those who truly appreciate it :)) Yup, I'm gonna watch it AGAIN now!! XOXO

[@RK-rj2sc]

Played in Bangalore INDIA for 6 months continually .. people loved it

[@jimbuchelt307]

I saw this movie in the summer of 1983-on HBO, and I just fell in love with it-it was the only musical that held my interest. Not to mention that dynamic humor involved. I fell in love with Michelle Pfeiffer. My favorite scene was the “Girl for All Seasons” (the talent show). Thanks also for this commemoration.

[@maxxt3916]

Same here. I was in grade school, early ’80’s on HBO and watched it constantly. For us, we didn’t even know that the first Grease even existed. All we knew was this one, because of our age and how we were introduced to it. Very fun times. Very special memories.

[@DrevikkDrevik]

It blew my mind the the cheerleader twins (also from the tv show "Double Trouble") are related to Katey Sagal aka Peg Bundy and star of "Sons of Anarchy" and "8 Simple Rules"

[@senatorcalderon1472]

I know every word to every song of this movie. i was 7 yrs old when it came out and died with excitement every time it was on television.

[@rjc7289]

Adrian Zmed -- boy, there's a name I haven't heard from since the 1980's! He was all over the TV back then!

[@michaelcope190]

Some the best choreograph, musical numbers I've ever seen on film. And the singing was phenomenal. I've had a crush on Michelle pfeifer ever since I saw grease 2

[@tonyandrade8131]

I remember seeing this in the theatre when I was 6 years old... I know most people think the film was garbage, but for me... it was amazing!!!

[@Ranbutch75]

I still love this movie

[@dannyzuko9686]

The Movie is amazing, i hated it at first when I saw the poster but when I first watched it I actually love it , the movie is nice the critics is bullcrap

[@FILIPOPERA]

This Grease is better than the first one. For me. Love Steph and Michael.

[@officialivangonzalo.]

No way ... XD

[@Dinvadbhatmarathi98]

This was definitely better than the first as it was more colourful and was less dryer the first one had a lot of serious tones and scenes ,but this one was more cheery and jovial

[@shplizzionsbruck2406]

Grease 2 is my Favourite movie!! I have seen it over a hundred times and can recite every line. I was born in the 70's and grew up thinking that high school would actually be like this (minus a lot of the singing) and was actually disappointed when I grew up to realize I wasn't going to form my own Pink Lady clique. So upset that Louis was not on the panel...he was my dream guy!! Not too much on KZbin about Grease 2 and that is really unfortunate...I'm So happy I came across this!!! It was amazing to watch and brought back So many fond memories!!! Grease 2 forever!!!

[@ladybfromnyc]

one of my fave lines...was from Goose... "poor guy bombed out in the bomb shelter!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@SnowdropWood]

I love Goose, my favourite Goose moment is when he's acting the tough henchman when Johnny confronts Stephanie outside the diner, but then when Johnny tells him to go inside so the ex-couple can talk in private, Goose goes: "Aww Johnny, I don't wanna eat alone!" Haha. It's such a cute moment.

[@marilynl.brooks8941]

I love cool rider and charades. My fav by Maxwell and michelle..

[@wormsnake1]

Great to see this cast of Grease together again. My son is 11 and we both love watching this film. In my opinion it will continue to find a new generation. An under rated movie that’s beginning to get its fair dues.🙏❤️.x

[@vangoghmatisse1]

LOVE GREASE 2

[@shawndawashington8623]

My favorite movie of all time! Like most ppl here, I can recite every single song and probably the entire movie! Love love love Grease 2!

[@JRFrancisco20088]

One of the most underrated films of all time. The musical numbers were all entertaining. Still search youtube for "Prowlin" with the T-Birds from time to time.

[@nickabbiss9545]

Love prowlin 👌🎶

[@senecanicholson1090]

​@@nickabbiss9545. Prowling. Legendary classic. Actually, the T-Birds theme.

[@vincenzoridente9994]

I love Grease 2 it's a shame it never got the attention that the first Grease did I think it's just as good as the first Grease

[@nstokes29]

This is one of my favorite movies. I still watch it today. Major impact on my life 😃👍👍.

[@eileenpizarro1558]

When this movie came out it wasn’t as successful as the previous one. I think unfortunately it was being compared and not given the chance to be its own movie. I’m not saying that this movie is great but it had its moments. I like the chemistry b/t Michael & Stefanie and let’s face it their both really pretty. Also the music was really good. I love Cool Rider, Charades, Love Will Turn Back The Hands Of Time and Prowlin. The performances of those songs in the movie where enjoyable. Anyway it’s really nice to see the film being appreciated and enjoyed now. It’s also great to see these actors looking back with fondness.

[@auntiechercher4266]

I liked this move better than the original! I would explain, but it takes too much time. (I can explain, though - if anyone is interested!).

[@Whiteclaw98]

I love both Grease 1 and 2, LOVE THEM. Both are still some of my all-time favorite movies

[@rebeccathomas4670]

Grease 2 and by the way still have the movie is put up somewhere but I still have it

[@amymason8231]

Just shows how much work the cast of grease 1 have had. These guys look their age and more power to them!

[@ACF5074]

I've always enjoyed this movie since I first saw it following my becoming familiar with the soundtrack after my buddy's parents saw the movie and played the soundtrack over and over again when we were kids. Now, I'm grown and my ten-year-old son absolute loves it. He watches it over and over. He's watching it right now, actually, lol. Great movie.

[@vincenzoridente9994]

It's such a shame that in 2021, women are still under-represented directing films.

[@josephcarlbreil5380]

This film was unfairly rubbished. Looking back it was a more than decent film. Thought that Maxwell Caulfield and Michelle Pfeiffer were superb.

[@JellicleKat]

This was AWESOME! Terrible sound, but so awesome to see them all back together! I never got to see the show when it was in the theaters but I did get to see it the summer before ninth grade, I was 14 years old and totally in love with Goose! That summer I watched it every single time it was on, I still watch it every time it's on. (Watched it twice in one day a couple of days ago.) Also to this day I still quote lines from this show. SOOO many good memories of that summer and to be very blunt, Grease 2 was better than the original Grease!

[@rickricardo8731]

I like both 😃

[@christinaherren]

This is one my all time favorite movie. It meant so must much to me. I bet it was a blast to make.

[@cab5917]

Where’s Frenchy, Didi Conn? And looks like Michelle has missed a lot of fun with the cast. Hope she can lighten up!

[@SamanthaMunitz]

There were many reasons why this film didn't do well during the summer of '82. One main reason - It was released at the wrong time. It couldn't compete with other summer movies such as Tron, Conan The Barbarian, Rocky III, Star Trek II, E.T., Poltergeist, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, The Thing, An Officer and a Gentleman, etc... All of those movies dominated the 1982 summer box office.

[@nabalab]

Great video. This def should have been on the 40th Anniversary Special Edition Steelbook that just came out.

[@robsheehan]

I LOVE Grease 2!! What id give to have been at this reunion!

[@debgorman5850]

"RHONDA",....gorgeous!

[@creating1_c1999]

Loved this movie!!! How 'bout that ride? I was 8 years old when Grease debuted at the theater, too young to see it at that time. I was 12 when Grease 2 arrived. At first I thought it was the event of seeing it at the theater that made it so impressionable for me. It made me anxious to see the first. When I did, I was a little disappointed. I loved JT and found it pure entertainment. Grease was about the woman adjusting herself for the guy. Grease 2 however was all about the guy adjusting himself for the girl.

[@VScott-uq1pj]

I'm watching this on KZbin and Grease on my tv. I enjoy both films.

Where has the time gone? I was approaching 15 when this movie came out back in 1982.

Great soundtrack. I actually bought it from Amazon not too long ago. Maureen Teefy isn't on the CD version of 'Lets Do it For Our Country", just Peter. The Movie version with Maureen sharing vocals is much better.

[@lucysilvestri87]

I noticed there was alot of similarity between the guy who played the jock from the original whom is Lorenzo Lamas and Grease 2 Maxwell Caulfield. In my opinion i think Lorenzo Lamas should have played Danny in the original Grease.

Wow I never noticed that before, you’re right!!!

Believe it or not Paramount was planning three more sequels and a TV series..... that didn't happen. Poor reviews and poor Box Office killed it. And the fact the film was shot with a unfinished script.

Michelle Pheiffer despised this film. That is very rude and arrogant of her, to say. I don't think she was missed at this reunion. :)

[@kevingmail9048]

Dennis Towle first I want to say I love Grease and I love Grease 2 and Michelle definitely was missed and I don't think she was being rude or arrogant by stating that she hated this film because this movie was her first movie role and it was a complete flop. Maxwell Caulfield who played Michael Carrington stated that he couldn't get a good role for ten years after this movie because it was so bad. Now that there's such a cult following for this movie people look at it differently but over the years many of the actors from this movie have said the same thing so don't hold that against Michelle.

Hollywood Knights was Michelle's first movie.
