Grease 2

I love Grease 2.

I just do, I can't help it! We had it on VHS when I was a kid and I watched it a billion times. I can't think of a movie I watched more, partly because it was one of the few I owned (someone taped it off a movie channel for us - they used to randomly tape movies for my family) but partly becuase it was SO FUCKIN AWESOME. My neighbor friends and I would be the different people. I think I was usually Paulette (which as an adult - it seems really really really weird that I was Paulette) which meant I had a crush oh Johnny Nagarelli.

Now I know it was a bomb in theaters and that probably most people think it's horrible and wouldn't be able to get through the whole thing. But man, I loved it. And, I still love it. I watched it again a couple weeks ago and now I can't stop listening to the soundtrack. And when I listen to the soundtrack I am able to watch the whole movie roll by in my head because I have the whole thing memorized.

I cried when I watched it last week. I am not going to say why because I don't want to ruin it for anyone who hasn't seen it (Pete!) but for those of you who've seen it - and i know there are some of you out there - I will just say I cried when Stephanie Zinone sort of slumps down and that glowing star floats away at the talent show.

I will write more on this topic later.
