Everyone cuts Rizzo’s song. Lol It’s my favorite.
Agreed! It's my favorite too. Stockard Channing is underrated.
I was so about to get on here and say this very thing!! It’s like they cut from the scene in the office with the principal and the office aid to Thunder Road every time…. It makes me sad….
The original high school musical. This soundtrack influenced my high school years.
The "Beauty School Dropout " singer was Frankie Avalon,a 50s teen heartthrob (famous for a series of beach-set films)🎩
He has a cameo in Casino as himself.
FYI-The „Beach“ movie series was in the 60‘s. I have them all on disc. RIP Annette and all the others who are now gone……
Sandy’s football player was Lorenzo Lamas, in later movies an action hero. Son of Fernando Lamas.
Eve Arden it was a comedy show , pretty sure she was a teacher “Our Miss Brooks”
Yes. More or less the same character.
Actually she wasn't Mrs Kravitz in Bewitched, the first Gladys Kravitz was played by Alice Pearce and the second was played by Sandra Gould. Alice Ghostley played Esmeralda who was Samantha's cousin.
Ah! 😊
No, Esmeralda wasn't Sam's cousin, she was the witch maid who had problems with her powers. Endora first hired her when Sam was pregnant with Adam.
She also played Mike TV's mom in "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory".
@@williamjones6031 Actually, that was Dodo Denny. They look somewhat similar.
@@johnmoreland6089 I stand corrected.
The band was Sha-Na-Na. They also had a TV show in the 70s, a musical variety show. I watched it all the time as a kid. My momeven took me to see them in concert when I was a kid.
So cool! 😊
Fun fact:the leather outfit that Olivia Newton John had to wear at the end of the movie , the zipper broke and they had to stitch the outfit
Susan Buckner who played Patty Simcox died a month or so ago. RIP.
You made a remark about the dancing. John Travolta started on this movie a couple of weeks after finishing Saturday Night Fever so he was likely still in shape. Also, the part of the Guardian Angel had been offered to Elvis Presley, who was finally rejected because of money. He died shortly before that scene was filmed anyway.
R.I.P To Some Of The Actor's Who We're In This Movie,Are No Longer With Us, Still Miss You All
I saw this in the theaters when I was 10 on my birthday in 1978. Then again in thetares again in 98.
Fun fact-Rydell High School was homage to another teen idol Bobbie Rydell. You can check him out in the musical „Bye, Bye Birdie“ with Ann Margret and Dick Van Dyke. Cheers
My older siblings were obsessed with Welcome Back Kotter so when Grease came out John Travolta was all they talked about. My sisters had the soundtrack on vinyl and we listened to it on my parents' stereo cabniet all the time. Great memories and great reaction! Love you guys 😊❤
❤
Stockard Channing was in her mid 30s playing a late teenager. Most of the other actors were in their 20s.
I saw this in the theater when I was 13. My father described it as "risqué" to my mother when we got home. It was the first time I heard that word.
😊
Excellent description of the movie!
Spent 29 years as a directory assistance before they gave up because now you have it on your phone.
sorry
" a lock of hair from her chest" and "double doody I lost one of my rhinestones in the macaroni" are two of my favorite lines from movies. I try to use them whenever possible.
Don't forget the toothpaste commercial 😊
Yes! 😊
I love the "hickey from Kanikie" quote myself!
@@brickm 😅
@brickm oh me too!! So many good ones.
Thunder Road was filmed what is called the L.A. River…. It’s basically a spill way …. If y’all have seen the move The Core it’s where they land the space shuttle at the very beginning of the movie ….
Summer, is here. 👏👏👏😳
Apparently the day they filmed the sleepover scenes where Rizzo was singing "Elvis Elvis Let me be" was the day Elvis died and they didn't know it yet
😮
Woah!
This is one of those movies that I would always watch if I saw it while channel surfing.
I’m singing right along with you guy’s 😂😊❤
😊❤
This is my all-time favorite musical! 😎
Quite possibly, the best Choreography, and editing, in any movie musical in history.
Honorable mention..Jesus Christ Superstar ( film ). ❤
Seven Brides For Seven Brothers?Singin’In The Rain?West Side Story?You obviously really really really like this movie.To each their own.Personally…if it came down to it..I’d take Grease over The Sound Of Music any day.
My ex and I call "You're the One That I Want" the Thanksgiving Song, because when he first heard the song, he thought the way they sang "You're the one that I want" sounded like a turkey gobbling...and of course that's how we sing it now.😁
I had a picture of Travolta on my wall, too.😊
Johnny Casino and the Gamblers aka Sha-Na-Na were the act just before Jimi Hendrix closed Woodstock 69.
Olivia Newton-John died August 8th 2022. She fought breast cancer for 30 years and lost the fight!😢
R.I.P.!
❤
We lost jeff Conway also. Too young but pain got the best of him
@andreadeamon6419 Yes, he was married to Olivia's sister Rona, she died of brain cancer as well.
Henry Winkler, "Fonze" on Happy days was the first choice but fearing being type cast he turned it down.
The MC for the dance was Ed Burnes, a former teen idol. Made a record with Connie Stevens called Kookie Lend Me Your Comb.
The tv show host was played by Edd Byrnes who gained fame as Kookie in the popular late 50s/early 60s series "77 Sunset Strip"🎩
Kookie Kookie lend me your comb. He had a cameo on Married With Children.
Thunder Road is the Los Angeles River. It's for rain runoff.
❤That is Venice High School in Venice California and it is used a lot. I don't think it was in Back To The Future but it is in Heathers(dark teen classic) and Britney Spears Hit Me Baby One More Time. The actress Sandra Dee was very famous in the 50s.....wholesome and as pure as the driven snow. She was in the Classic film Gidget 1959. It is fun to watch. There was a genre of 50s and 60s beach movies. Even Elvis had a few. I love Blue Hawaii the best.
Pushing Daises!!’Oh I had forgotten all about that show!! I liked it!!
We're both OBSESSED with that show! Pretty much know every episode by heart.
@@Flix2Us You oughta check out the show Lee Pace did a few years before that one called "Wonderfalls". It's quirky and ridiculous and set in Niagara Falls. Sadly, it only got one season but all the episodes are lots of fun.
Well, it was definitely MY most-watched movie in the summer of 1978!! It played on a double-bill with Foul Play at a theater about a 1/2 mile from my house. My best-friend (next door) & I must have seen it a dozen times that summer! When we were bored, and it was just too hot outside:
"Let's go watch Grease & Foul Play again!!!" I was 11. We rode our bicycles to the theater.
Fan theory: Sandy drowned at the beach and Grease is her NDE... at the end the car is taking her to heaven, fulfilling her wish to be with Danny forever.
Actually it probably was good luck cause Danny was probably the better driver. They needed him to win the race. 😊
Great reaction 😊
❤
The blonde waitress is 40’s actress/sex symbol Joan Blondell. She played Vi in this movie.
Most actors playing the students were in their 20s, not their 30s or 40s. The only two that were not were Rizzo at age 33 or 34 and Sonny at age 32. Keep in mind in the 1950s kids looked a LOT older than they do today!
The reason adult actors were selected is because the restriction on actors under 18 years old are difficult to deal with for a movie with a budget and time schedule. Adults can work long hours, and not teens.
That was NOT Mrs Kravitz. That was the nanny, Samantha's cousin Esmeralda.
Definitely; I remember looking thru my brother's high school yearbook from 1957 and thinking how much older the students (especially the girls with make-up & hairstyles, actually trying to look more "mature") looked to me and I'm a high school graduate of 1971! Now everyone tries to look as young as possible for as long as possible; sometimes it works, sometimes not so much.
In musicals and school productions they actually had to change the pu***wagon to dragon wagon to keep it clean for family productions
Fun to see you both having fun and singing 😊 Great reaction to a classic ❤
The sequel is so bad it’s good 😂, and it has Michelle Pfeiffer in it in one of her first movies.
I remember seeing it on stage with my beautiful beloved late mother, and she loved it, singing along with all the songs. We had such a lovely time and now she’s gone, I cherish the memories even more
❤
I feel like I missed out on impromptu music numbers breaking out in high school.
Of course, I went to a military academy.
Frankie Avalon!!’
That’s the name you were thinking of!!
He’s from the old Beach Blanket movies with Annette Funicello ( misspelled?!)!
😊❤
A young Michael Biehn (Kyle Reese, Corporal Hicks, Johhny Ringo etc) at 14.00 getting hit by Travolta during the basketball scene.
You two, but especially your mom was having a blast!! great reaction as always!!
Great reaction
Saw this when it came out at in the theater as everyone loved Olivia Neutron Bomb as she was commonly called as she just exploded on stage with a voice that melted souls. RIP
And John Travolta was a new rising star that every boy wished they could be because every girl wanted to be with him making them the dream couple.
Great movie, great music, great fun. Thanks for the great reaction.
Mum, how many times did you go to watch this? 🤔 Wow I loved Welcome back Kotter, a long lost comedy from my youth as well.
Remember Olivia's Xanadu and Let's Get Physical? Wow!
It is a comedy, drama, and a romance. It is entertaining and It may bring back memories of your high school days! Highly recommend!
My first favourite non-Disney movie.
Thanks a lot! 👌🥂🔥
I remember my dad not letting me watch Grease, so eventually I snuck and watched it as a teen in the 80's. I can see why now, but it made me want to watch it even more lol. Such a Classic, y'all are just the best 🙌🫶
Stockard Channing was one of the aunts in Practical Magic
Ah! 😊
You too should watch Back to the Beach (1987)
This and horror movies we were far too young to see were what we’d always watch at sleepovers when I was a kid. Definitely needed after The Exorcist (which had only recently been given a certificate by the BBFC, after being effectively banned for 25 years) when I was 12.
I’ve never heard Kill Bill, Mad Maxx or Alice Copper referenced about Grease before 😄 nice channel, been watching for a while now !
As a kid, I loved this movie, but I guess after a few decades you get a bit jaded and start picking at the faults rather than enjoying the fun, Watching Nick see it for the first time, made it fun again. That's the best thing about you two as reactors, You are more about the positives than the negatives' I hope that made sense, but just thank you, I really enjoyed that. ✌❤
One of the stars is Did Conn. She was the voice for Raggedy Ann in "Raggedy Ann & Andy: A Musical Adventure." An animated film I highly recommend for Flix2Us to watch and react. Directed by the legendary Richard Williams, the guy who directed the animation for Who framed Roger Rabbit.
Eugene was also in "1941" by Steven Spielberg.
The band is Sha-Na-Na! 😎
I wached this vintage classic movie 🎥 when I was a kid. Used to always mixed up Frankie Avalon with Frankie Valli but not anymore. I got Grease on both DVD and Bluray discs
I was 7 when this came out. I saw it in the movie theater with my mom. They thought the cartoon was for kids. Luckily, the sex stuff went over our heads. I always gave her shit later about letting us see it. Who knew? Great movie.
GenX loves this movie
Fun fact:Frankie Avalon was scared of falling down the steps during his song Beauty School Dropout so they added mattresses in between the steps so if he did fall down it’d be comfortable for him to fall on
Interesting trivia! 😊
Sha-Na-Na! Bowzer is my favorite!
My oldest brother acted like Danny while around his friends in front of a girl he liked. Our dad saw it went over to him and punched him in the side of the head. He stopped acting like it afterwards.
😮
The American football field is now a car park.
Interesting fan theory. Danny sings in Summer Lovin' that he saved Sandy at the beach that summer because "she nearly drowned".
The theory is they actually both drowned during that incident and the entire movie was an afterlife dream sequence. Hence the flying car at the end.
Could be. Who knows.
Could be. 😊
What a fun reaction! If you haven't yet, you should react to Hairspray, also starring John Travolta. Great musical, set in about the same time period as Grease. Lots of fun, terrific songs, and a great cast.
We've seen it, actually! It's one of Mom's favs.
The gym teacher was “Sid Cesar “
he had a famous variety show “Your Show Of Shows “ back in the day , I think the first one!!Mel Brooks was on it and helped write skits along with a lot of others!
I worked with Sid Ceaser on the film Love is Never Silent.
Love Is Never Silent
is one of my all time favorites!! So beautiful!!!
@susanliltz3875 I was one of the extras. I was walking on the sidewalk outside the store. During the filming, Mare Winningham was staring at me with such intensity, that the director had to call her name three times before she snapped out of it! I was actually awe struck with her having seen her in St. Elmo's Fire two years earlier.
The opening did Stockard Channing so dirty. D:
Not a fan of musicals but this is an exemption! Love this movie!
The funny thing is that they look like they are in their 40s but many are actually in their 20s.
Saturday Night Fever next!! 💯👍😁
Aspirin in Coke was supposed to bring out the Cocaine effects
I never knew that. Thanks for the fun fact 😊
ONJ had to be sewn into those black trousers in the finale🎩
The original stage production was much more raw. The play was an accurate celebration of the 1950s, the movie was a romanticized (and somewhat sanitized) look at the '50s through '70s eyes. The movie is an awful lot of fun, my only gripe is that its phenomenal success has compromised every stage revival since. Stage producers are reluctant to put on the original show and generally try to make their productions as much like the movie as legally possible. (The same problem haunts stage productions of THE SOUND OF MUSIC and CABARET).
I agree. They tamper too much in revivals
Supposedly, Michael Biehn (Aliens, Terminator) is one of the athletes when Danny's trying out for basketball.
The football player Sandy flirts with is Lorenzo Lamas! (Snake Eater, Renegade tv show)
All of us young boys were totally in love wjth Olivia Newton-John when this came out. As you said, she definitely rocked the leather.
I'm back to ask if you might do a Canadian movie in honour of Canada Day 🇨🇦
I think you'd love FUBAR (2002) and find it hilarious.
I also have to recommend Dance Me Outside (1994) as my own favourite Canadian movie (and just one of my favourite movies of all time).
CUBE (1997) is a fantastic original and terrifying sci-fi/horror that has become a cult classic.
And lastly The Snow Walker (2003) is just a gorgeous and emotional survival story set in the wilderness and based on a story by Farley Mowat.
All good options, imho. 😊
I hope you do grease 2 I know some didn’t like it but but I enjoyed it Michelle Pfeiffer was good in it Imo
I LOVE Grease 2 - and it still really holds up better than a lot of sequels
My high school senior class did Grease as the Senior Play. There was a bit of censorship in the script.
The original HAIRSPRAY is better than the John Travolta remake were he wears drag.
1. I worked at a three theatre movie group and this is one of which is a drive-in. Yes it was like that. Sometimes moving from car to car. BYO booze&4/20.
2. Also, "Up in Smoke", "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" and "Saturday Night Fever".
3. This was a great movie to take your honey to. I was in high school.
4. These songs kill for karaoke (especially Summer Lovin')
5. Marty/Diana Manoff is my honey. Her character is a bimbo, but what's wrong with that?
6. The last song was the curtain call.😍😋😈
7. "I'll give you 35c for the whole car, including your chick". 🤣🤣
8. Danny changed too. They didn't just give letters away. (even in crappy schools)
9. If you don't dig the all-star cast it's on you
10. RIP ONJ 😭😇
I felt cheated my school didn’t do anything close to this at the end of the year. Anyone else feel that way?
Yes!! 😊
Nick you should kiss your Mother, and thank her , for bringing this to your attention. ❤😂..( I'm sure you do, but dude this is The Musical, that all should be and is the Standard! )
😊
Everyone loves Grease
Recognize Lorenzo Lamas?
He's the football jock.
Three or so years before Falcon Crest.
Now y'all need to do Grease 2!! 💗
I just googled mrs Kravitz it wasn't her
You guys should watch the movie silverado. Good classic western
That's actually my favourite Western! We'll definitely do it someday.
@@Flix2Us cool!! You have good taste
I love that John Travolta was in the same movie as his mom! She played a great waitress ❤
Sister
React to The Color Purple Next.
And "The Help"
Have you watched the newer hairspray.
I love it! 😊
No offense but I wouldn’t react to “Saturday Night Fever” it doesn’t hold up..
Grease 2 would be better
The ending of the movie in my opinion is awful they could have came up with a better ending than Danny and Sandy flying in a car?
You have to do grease 2 next! I'm not sure if i've seen anyone react to it on youtube.
Did you see Kyle Reese from terminator?
No, we missed him but saw it later! 😊
