"Grease: Sing-a-Long" Winners to Be Announced Soon
Paramount Pictures is re-releasing the 1978 musical, Grease (a smash hit back then), as "Grease: Sing-a-Long." The film is digitally remastered and the song lyrics will appear at the bottom of the screen. The release apparently will be limited - thus this contest to be among the cities showing the film:
Press release:
FANS ACROSS THE U.S. “DEMAND” GREASE: SING-A-LONG
The Top 5 Demand it! ® Cities Will Be Announced By Noon on Monday, June 14th
WHO: Fans across the country are “demanding” GREASE: SING-A-LONG come to their hometowns.

Said Rob Moore, Vice Chairman of Paramount Pictures: “As we saw with “Paranormal Activity,” with the right amount of fan fever, even the smallest towns can win the right to have the film plan in their town via the Demand it! ® Program. We are excited to see which 5 cities top the poll next week.”
