  • Jake and Elwook are in danger! And the truth is that Carrie Fisher doesn't make it any easier for them! She is a woman to be reckoned with.
    The Blues Brothers (1980) SYNOPSIS: After his release from prison, Jake (John Belushi) reunites with his brother, Elwood (Dan Aykroyd) -- collectively known as the "Blues Brothers." Jake's first task is to save the orphanage the brothers grew up in from closing, by raising $5,000 to pay back taxes. The two are convinced they can earn the money by getting their old band back together. However, after playing several gigs and making a few enemies, including the police, the brothers face daunting odds to deliver the money on time.

    We recently re-watched this on a movie night with some people who've never seen it before, and right before the car falls apart after the last chase, one of them said "That is one great car" and it made me realize... It wasn't the car. They survived unscathed through so much that should have killed them with no more than dirt on their suits, the car handled impossibly well, even after it threw a rod... it got them to their destination before succumbing to all of the damage, every step they took put them at their goal right before any consequence befell them. They had DIVINE PROVIDENCE, God was with them... because they WERE on a mission from God. Technically the film is a religious epic.

      Holmes Huddle They were on a mission from God.. That’s why nothing happened to them, why they didn’t get caught until the taxes were paid, and why the Bluesmobile didn’t fall apart until it had already got them where they needed to go, and did backflips and all that. That and in a deleted scene they parked it next to a giant power transformer, which supposedly “charged” it up.

      This was a 1980s Epic involving two brothers doing the Lord’s work, not a sci-fi epic like Tron. CGI back then was not as polished and realistic as it is now. For this film, they used every avaliable trick to make this film work, with no computers involved in any moment, because it was a different time, and wasn’t required for this film. This film’s effects were practical, because there only CGI used was limited back in the 80s, and good only for sci-fi.
