I love how this thread keep's going.... Come on...more quotes.... Boy's, you gotta learn not to talk to nun's that way.... Dave
Yeah...I'm pretty the story is the mall was abandoned and the film crew "rebuilt" just to drive through it and destroy it.
"We offered to help you. You refused to take our money. Then I said 'I guess you're really up shit creek'" I've seen the movie on TBS a shitload of times and it's still good but taking all the swear words out really hurts it. "Ow, you fat penguin!"
Elwood: Oh no. Jake: What the fuck was that? Elwood: The motor. We've thrown a rod. Jake: Is that serious? Elwood: Yup.
how much for the girl? i want to buy the little girl... that movie, i would estimate, i saw about 50-100 times between the ages of 4 and 12. i wore out the video, multiple times. what a classic... you're right though, the plumbing incident was funnier.
" Ill be damned, it's that shitbox dodge again!" I actually own only three movies (well besides porn) that i can watch again and again. Blues Brothers, Blazing Saddles, and Fight Club. Did anybody ever see that early sketch where Akroyd and Belushi took Brian Wilson out of bed and dragged him to go surfing? They played members of CHiPs, but drove him in the Monaco, same one as in the film. They did this whole Sgt Joe Friday deadpan thing saying: Akroyd: Lets go surfin' now Wilson: But i hate the beach! Belushi: But everybody's learnin' how. Akroyd and Belushi: C'mon on a safari with us. Must've took alot of self-medicating for Wilson to get over that because he was terrified of water. Thats my venture into obscure movie skits, i guess.
Pay attention too at the end. The big prison riot/dance party gets kicked off by Joe Walsh flipping out.
I dunno. I would bet it was something they did with Second City comedy troup or maybe early SNL. Bob of Bob's Country Bunker: "God damnit, you boys owe me alotta money for the beer you drunk." "You're the Good Ole Boys? then who the hell are they?"
Okay...I'm not gonna be leavin this alone... My nickname has been Jake for about 9 years now (and alot of people don't even know that's not my "real" name - What is real anyways?- but i digress...) and I was given this nickname, because I was told by quite a few people that I look like Belushi...so this movie has become my words to live by so to speak.... "You promised you'd come visit the Penguin the day you got out". "So,...I lied to her". "You can't lie to a nun. Now we have to go in there and visit the Penguin". "No Fucking Way". "The light was yellow sir". "First you lie to me about the band, then you pick me up in a police car, and now you're tryin' to put me right back into the joint". "Disco pants and haircuts". "Yeah, there's a lotta space in this mall". My favorite part has got to be when Jake confronts the Good Old Boys as a musician's union rep and shows them an upside down pack of cigarrettes as his badge. Cracks me up every time. Also, the noise that Monaco's mill makes when the Bluesmobile finally leaves the mall and Elwood tromps on it is nothing short of spectacular. I listen to that growl over and over again.
"You got my cheeze wizz, boy?" "And until then...don't you go changin". "You see,...me and the Lord,...we got an understanding.." "We're on a mission from God". "Come on guys..let me buy you a cup of coffee. The soup here is Fucking ten dollars." "Those bums won their court case so they're marching today." "What bums?" "The Fuckin Nazi Party." "Don't you blaspheme in here, DON'T YOU BLASPHEME IN HERE!" "Now go on, GIT! Breaks my heart to see a boy that young going bad." "What kind of music do you usually have here?" "Oh we have both kinds...country and western." "That ain't no Hank Williams song! What the hell are those freak peckerheads playing now?" "They want us to pay for the beer we drank so you guys better split. The next gig's gonna be HUGE." "Hey Jake..I gotta pull over."
"And now people...And now people...When I woke up this mornin'..... I heard a disturbin sound. I said when I woke up this mornin,...... I heard a disturbing sound. What I heard, was the jingle jangle of a thousand lost souls! I'm talkin 'bout the soul of modern men and women.....a part of them in this life! Wait a minute! Those lost angry souls....wanderin over the sea and the earth....seekin' a Divine Light...they'll not find....Because it's too late! Tooooo late, ya! Too late for them to ever see again! The light they once chose not to follow! Don't be lost when the time comes! For the day of the Lord cometh...as a theif in the night! AAAAAAAmen! Can I get an Amen? Can I get an Amen? Well, well well...." I swear....if James Brown was my preacher, I'd be in church every day!
