Even as a child, I realised that Sandy was way too good for Danny. He's embarrassed to tell his buddies that he genuinely likes her, and while they both change for each other in the end, her change is definitely more dramatic than his. They probably didn't last long after the movie, to be honest.

Preschool? Good lord. I guess the 70s were an interesting time, still a lot more innocent, in some ways. The first movie in a theatre I ever saw (I think at about age 4) was either Lady and the Tramp or Bambi. I think I must have slept through the scene when his mother is killed, because I have no memory of it. When I saw it again a few years later, what frightened me most was the forest fire. Before I saw Oliver! at age about 9, my parents warned me about the scene in which Bill kills Nancy, so when it happened it didn't come as a shock. When I saw Sound of Music at about the same age, I had no idea what was going on with the Nazis chasing the family. There was dark stuff in all the films we saw, but it was rarely explicit enough to leave a mark on us.

Danny’s and Sandy’s relationship is toxic 101. I mean Danny insults her in front of his friends and she still goes back to him every freaking time. Then at the end she changes herself so that he and his friends could like her. She should have stayed with the other guy. At least he likes Sandy for who she is.

To be fair, the PG-13 rating didn't exist yet and I guess they didn't think it met the criteria for an R.

Yeah, "You're the one that I want" was an amazing showstopper, and Travolta and Newton-John nailed it. "Are you sure?" "Yes, I'm sure down deep inside."

It's amazing how much nostalgia glosses over all the problematic bits. This is def a movie I've loved since childhood, but if I saw it the first time today I'd be all manner of "what the fuck???"

The original stage show (before the movie ever existed) was a love letter to Chicago and the high school Jim Jacobs went to. It was also WAY raunchier, like R rated: There were multiple F-Bombs, Kenickie makes a joke about Rizzo sitting on his face, the opening number is the “VD” song they sing in the car outside of the slumber party, and at the end Patty calls Sandy a “flousie” and she punches Patty in the face giving her a black eye. The original is a much better show, and almost an honest and proud indictment of how highschool life was at the time. The movie and subsequent revivals based off miss the mark, hard. I have a fondness for the movie only cause I did the show (heavily censored) in highschool. You really have to turn your brain off to enjoy it

I saw this for the second time at a Church youth group meeting. Honestly, atheist that I was, I was nearly peeing myself with laughter as the church leaders were too horrified to turn off the movie. We got a talk afterwards and an apology. Good times!

I watched this quite recently because my mom and I both had the flu at the same time. It's great for "brains off, shallow fun", which is really all we had the brainpower for lol.

“This actor’s destroyed ankle.” Daaaaaaaaam. That looked like it hurt. 😮

Fun fact in the theatre version Grease Lightning is actually performed by Kenickie

RIP Olivia Newton-John

Adding 570 sins for the sa line is probably the least petty mass sinning we've ever gotten

13:45 smoking in bathrooms DEFINITELY continued in to the late 1980s. I couldnt use the restroom in high school because of this so I ahd to hold it till I got home. The students were mad I even entered the restroom acting like I was a narc. heck the teacher knew they were in there and did nothing., Because they were NOT permitted to throw them out. Because "the law" said you must be in school but didnt include "in classroom"

Am kind of glad in retrospect that my parents made me go to a small, very strict, all-girls Catholic high school. Lots of students smoked of course, but anyone smoked in the bathroom there, there would have been hell to pay.

The song you refer to as “Alone at a Drive-In” is actually called “Sandy”. 1,000 sins for you for not getting a fact correct about a film you’re slagging off.

Fun fact - Michael Biehn is the basketball jock that Danny punches in the stomach during his tryout.

When I was about 7 years old, we learned the songs to perform in front of the school for assembly. The teachers showed the songs played in the movie but skipped over everything else. I can't believe inappropriate this would have been at the time but it was the 90s. We had a cardboard cutout of cars taped to the giant ruler for the blackboard and performed "Greased Lightning".

Far more disturbing than the "flog your log" line being in the movie was the fact that my ten year old sister back then actually knowing what that meant since she told me, "don't ever say that" the first time we saw it.

Stockard Channing was a perfect casting choice for Rizzo still haven't watched Grease's spinoff series The Pink Ladies

Two missed sins: Before the Beauty School Dropout song, the waitress tries to turn the lights off with her elbow, completely misses the switch (by an embarrassingly large distance), but the lights still turn off. And during We Go Together, when all of the "kids" are on the grass part of the fairgrounds, Frenchie and a few others hit their knees, then the camera angle switches and Frenchie and the guy next to her have switched places.

A lot of these sins are because you're not being observant (a yikes for a movie critic) Danny was shy about conveying his actual feelings for Sandy IN PUBLIC. Because they don't align with his care-free cool guy image. Sandy on the other hand, needed to loosen up and have a bit more fun as we see in the slumber party scene. Danny needs to grow up, and Sandy needs to let loose. By the end they both realize they need to change in order to work for one another, which Sandy shows in an extreme way at the end while Danny works at it through the movie. Obviously she's not going to keep the makeover, it was to show Danny she's willing to change too.

The song you call "Alone at a Drive-In" is actually called "Sandy." The first line is "Stranded at the drive-in, branded as a fool." There is a song from "Grease" called "Alone at a Drive-In Movie," but it's an instrumental. Thank you for not destroying Olivia Newton-John. She wasn't a great actress, but she was an amazing person.

Crazy story about ONJ...Shortly after Grease came out, the tiny town of Olivia, MN, wrote her a letter inviting her to be the grand marshall of their annual local parade...and she actually showed up and rode a horse in the parade! Can you imagine a celebrity of her caliber doing that today?

A few months had passed between the first scene and the Homecoming game.

7:54 In many cuts of this movie, the poster in the background is a Coca-Cola ad that was blurred out in the movie but the version of the movie you are sinning looks like a Pepsi ad was digitally inserted for the Coke ad. I thought there would have been a sin for an obvious blur being obvious.

@@rahbeeuh The original. The one with The Rock in my opinion is an entirely different movie with little to no relation, not that I don’t think it has its own unique charms from a certain perspective but it’s comparatively more of a cheap cash grab using the name of the original. Edit: I called it Race To Witch Mountain in my comment. Bit of Mandela Effect I suppose. So, to clarify the ones I like are the 75 version and the Disney 1995 version which as I can see now are Escape to Witch Mountain and Return To Witch Mountain respectively according to the old faded jacket art I have here

Side note. As a kid I had this VHS movie where a team go into space and and end up landing on a dinosaur planet. All the dinosaurs are claymation and I think someone gets impaled by a triceratops. Anyone know the name of that movie?

People always complain about Sandy changing for Danny but always ignore that Danny changed for Sandy too.

Ready now for Grease 2

"1950s Euphoria" is so much more accurate than i anticipated sgdgsghs

I love you guys, but you sapped all the fun out of this fantastic film. And Bowser of Sha-Na-Na was the sh*t lol.

Omg I totally said this was a 50s euphoria too. I was honestly shocked by some of the content

"Did she put up a fight" is literally the only thing I associate with this movie.

When i saw this, I got chills. They're multiplying...

Please could you also sin Grease 2? That's even more ridiculous than this one was :D

I forgot how insane this movie is.

5:25 I dunno, I feel like this falls pretty high on that psycho:hot graph.

THANK you for including the sin about greased lightning! Apparently Jeff Conaway WAS supposed to sing it but John Travolta yoinked it using his star power cuz he wanted to sing it.

There's gotta be a way to take a sin off for Stockard Channing somehow. "Bite the weenie, Riz" "With relish"

Kenickie was supposed to sing Grease Lightning, because his character does in the stage version, but John Travolta talked the director into letting him do it instead.

7:20 Kenickie was supposed to sing it, which he does in the original play, but Travolta wanted the song in the movie and he got it because he was a bigger draw than Conaway. Travolta literally said "I wanted [it] and because I had clout, I could get [it]".

I’m still wrapping my head around the fact that Danny and Vincent from Pulp Fiction are played by the same man.

70s Fender P-Bass in the 50s. Forgot that sin.

Sin 735 at 14:14 is a no go since you can clearly see on the screen it says , show starts in 8 minutes, not 0 as he claims.
