It’s been confirmed here that the 40th Anniversary release of Grease replaces the previously blurred Coke posters with Pepsi posters.
Since my Grease 40th Anniversary DVD arrived today, figured I’d post some grabs. As most know, Grease for the last 40 years has had ‘blurred’ posters in the Frosty Palace scenes. That’s because the posters displayed Coca-Cola logos and there was a product placement deal with Pepsi. Here’s screen shots without the blurs that have surfaced online (none of the video releases are without the blurs).
Here’s how it appeared from 1978 'til now.
Here’s how it appears on the 40th Anniversary release.
Some more examples.
Here you can see a Coke cooler not only has the logo removed but has been changed from red to a dark orange.
When Danny talks to Sandy at the jukebox, another Coke logo is blurred on the menu in the background. The logo appears untouched later in the film.
However here it is earlier in the film.
For the 40th Anniversary release the blurred areas are replaced by menu text.
Also note that a shadow of a microphone has been digitally erased from the jukebox?? This may have been done for the Rockin’ Rydell edition judging from the Audio Commentary.
