This was Creator/MichellePfeiffer's break-out role, but the only other actors you will recognize are Creator/ChristopherMcDonald, [[Film/EmpireRecords Rex Manning]] as the male lead, Creator/PamelaAdlon, Adrian Zmed, and the actors who reprised their roles from the first movie.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Frenchy disappears midway through the film, since by then the script was finished and the writers had decided to write Didi Conn's character out, only to use some of her scenes anyway in post.

* DynamicEntry: Michael's appearance at the Bowl-a-Rama, at the beginning of "Who's That Guy?"

* MalAProper: Johnny Nogerelli, whose verbal garbling produces gems such as turning "menstruation" into "mentalstration".
* MustNotDieAVirgin: Intentionally invoked and set to music, with the song "Let's Do It For Our Country". Louis brings Sharon down to the bomb shelter, where a confederate sounds the bomb siren to make her think it's TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt. Cue an incredibly [[{{Narm}} Narmful]] song where she sings about volunteering for the war, contrasting with his rather less patriotic intentions. Then she realizes the siren has stopped, opens the shelter door, and trips over his friends listening at the door.

* TheSixties: When the film actually takes place. It starts in 1961. Similar to ''Series/MadMen'', the early 1960s feel and look like the 1950s.

The new kid Michael is a nerd. A hopeless nerd! And furthermore, he's in love with Stephanie, who as a Pink Lady can only go with a T-Bird. Naturally, the solution is to find out what she wants in a man and become it, regardless of cost or effort. But Michael succeeds so wildly he ends up upstaging the T-Birds, impressing the whole school, and becoming so awesome that Stephanie [[{{Wangst}} starts to question]] whether she wouldn't rather just have the [[BeYourself normal nerdy guy]] who keeps helping her with her essays. When Michael finally [[TheReveal reveals]] his [[BadassBookworm true identity]], he gets the girl and the acceptance he so craves. Hooray!

Even those who took [[Film/{{Grease}} the original]] seriously might have trouble with this one. Song topics include plant reproduction (which is really sex), going off to war to become a man (which is really sex), and the moral flexibility of the women one meets at the grocery store (which [[IntercourseWithYou isn't even disguised]]). Also features a talent-show act with [[FetishRetardant girls trying to act sexy while dressed as Christmas trees and jack-o'lanterns]], and [[InformedAttribute almost]] [[InformedEmotion every]] [[InformedFlaw instance]] of informed or [[DesignatedHero designated]] [[DesignatedVillain anything]].

* JewishAndNerdy: Eugene, who was also in the first film. Based on this, he must have been a freshman in the first film.

* Fanservice: Michael sports a leather jacket, halfway unzipped showing his chest. In the bowling musical number, Johnny also wears his shirt unbuttoned getting occasional nip slips. Yum.
