...is it about the movie musical "Grease"? I've seriously tried and I just can't get it. My wife is inside now with her eyes glued to it like it's The Godfather - and does this on occasion when it comes on. I watch 5 minutes of it and consider poking my eyes out. So I ask you, what the heck am I missing here?
Should this be in rant?

...and your point about that IS????? ;)
I have both screenplays memorized and the soundtracks are always in my car. I'm hopelessly afflicted, I'm afraid...so I can't be objective. I thoroughly love both movies. As an undergrad, we had Grease parties at my sorority house and watched them all the time.
I guess it comes down to the ability to suspend your disbelief entirely for a little while and escape to a little musical world of 50's fantasy and fun.
Is it completely insane that I wanted a "cool rider" of my very own? ;)

The movie sequence will be:
Ferris - Grease - Ferris - Grease - Ferris - Grease - *
You will be assimilated!
*I have both of these movies on top of the tv, for easy viewing access

Don't think so... there are several things in life that I may miss... but Grease is definitely not one of them.
I can still vividly recall my wife and her mother standing in line to see this piece of drivel... while I opted to watch Capricorn One. I have never regretted my decision.
In the list of truly great movies... GREASE simply does not cut it.

Grease and Dirty Dancing are my girlfriends top 2 fav films ever too! Those and "10 Things I Hate About You". I'm not sure whether I'm conditioning myself into liking them just so I don't get a slap, or whether they actually are growing on me...
I'm scared :S

Look, spaghetti arms. This is my dance space. This is your dance space. I don't go into yours, you don't go into mine. You gotta hold the frame. |
