Summary: Double, triple, quadruple-dip, anyone???
Comment: C'mon, Paramount. No one loves Grease more than us hopelessly devoted fans. But if you are going to roll out yet another attempt to repackage our beloved classic, make it worth rolling out the bucks. How about this: offer a re-release with the (!!!!!!!) ORIGINAL THEATRICAL AUDIO TRACK as an option. We love the remastered print, etc. But some of us really long for the original track, especially because some of the classic songs were over-remixed in the 1998 re-release. The biggest disappointment is not being able to hear the movie the way many of us first experienced it in 1978. (No disrespect to composer John Farrar, but) I miss watching "Hopelessly Devoted to You" without the unnecessary - and sometimes distractingly over-mixed - backing vocals, for example.
Many classics that were remastered or recut offer us fans the option of seeing them in its original form (see Superman: The Movie or ET: The Extra-Terrestrial) in addition to the revamped versions. Grease fans deserve the same before we plunk down another $15 or $20.
Are you listening???

Summary: Once loved-Twice hated
Comment: I HATE this film, when I once loved it. Growing up has made me realize a LOT of good things about maturity, and one of them is the fact that this really is a bad movie. The acting is mediocre, if not bad, and the story is crap! I would say that is high school, there is a LOT to fret over, but not a boyfriend-girlfriend thing! Leave that to an obnoxious John Hughes film! Some of the music really is intellegently written, and the singing isn't too bad either, the I just have to say, that it does not deliver anymore. I would like to say I am a big fan, as I was ten years ago, but watching it recently, I realized that this movie was utter crap, and I cringe at it. Especially John Travolta, more like John Revolta!-or just plain revolting! My parents were right when they said the film was bad, but I wouldn't listen to them, now...I wish I had!

Summary: Heavy on the Grease
Comment: Grease will always hold a special place in my heart, it is part of my childhood and holds many nostalgic memories for me. Saw the movie when I was 8, was given the soundtrack on vinyl (as well as Saturday Nite Fever) for christmas. Played it on my ladybug turntable, and sang along to every song with my friends, 1978. The only way to truely watch Grease is on "full screen". U just can't enjoy it any other way. I bought it on widescreen and was totally horrified. It just doesn't have that same effect. I later purchased the full screen edition, and again I was in Grease heaven. Grease is one of the best movies of all time. Olivia Newton John and John Travolta are fantastic. This is John Travolta's best movie to date, I don't care what anybody says. Grease will make u laugh, sing and cry. it is just an all around, feel good movie that cannot be compared to any other. Ask yourself this, what would you rather watch, Grease or Gone With The Wind? It's a no brainer, Grease is the word. I worked with Stockard Channing once and I just had to tell her I loved her in Grease and that it was an honour to work with her. At least I got to tell one of the cast members how much I love the movie and how people still remember it to this day. This film is loved and praised by many people and rightfully so.

Summary: One small problem...
Comment: OK, fun songs, cute acting, generally a good time. But has anyone noticed that the moral of this story seems to say that you should change yourself into something you're not in order to please someone else? Not sure that's a message I'd want my kids to hear.
