In reply to the discussion: What movie do you hate that everyone else loved? [View all]DFW
(54,334 posts)Though many other listed came close, but the OP said "that everybody else loved," and I am the only person I know that hated Grease.
I was dragged into seeing Grease when a British friend was visiting in Boston, and insisted we all go see it. I HATED it, and the only part that wasn't awful was when a group of people from India entered the theater about 20 minutes after the film had begun, and started protesting so loudly about the film as to interfere with the sound track. They were protesting loudly, and with strong Indian accents, "This is not Jaws. Why is this not Jaws? We wanted to see Jaws, and this is most certainly not Jaws." It sounded like one of the most extreme Peter Sellers routines, and I was laughing so hard, I forgot for a moment about how awful Grease was. The usher had apparently not understood what they were asking for (presumably Jaws) and showed them into our theater instead.
