1) It came at the tail end of a series of Hollywood musical flops.
2) It came out about a year after MTV started - and the kids were simply more interested in TV for music (1 year later the first MTV 'musical' Flashdance came out).
3) It was called 'Grease 2' and featured two unknown actors - that might have been the biggest mistake of all. I believe it was originally to be called 'Son of Grease' - which might have been a sillier name, but wouldn't have made the public think "John and Olivia are back?"

Could have been worse: it could have been Two of a Kind...
