I'm sorry. I'm gonna have to disagree with you. I know that opinions are like assholes in the sense that everybody has one and nobody thinks that theirs stinks, but I gotta tell ya.. In my opinion, Grease can only exist in a kitsch universe. A universe where, in the Kundera sense, shit doesn't exist, so this obviously can't be shit, can it? But I don't live in that universe, and Grease is a rancid bag of raccoon feces left on the sidewalk on a rainy day.
Don't ask me how they got the raccoon to shit in a bag. |

I'm just playing to the metaphor though, I love the first Grease. Do you guys just not like musicals in general or what?

Dirty Dancing is a steaming pile of crap and that is not because it's a chick flick. I watched it objectively and still thought it was bad. The direction was banal. The story unbelievable and the characters poorly written. I don't like musicals much anyhow but take Saturday Night Fever. I don't like it but I can certainly appreciate it as a film.
I feel the same about Grease too. I do like some musicals though. Oliver, Singing In The Rain and Top Hat are excellent.
