The Blues Brothers

Plot hole: I never understood this... if the Good Ole Boys were running so late that the place was already closed, what would the Bunker have done if the Blues Brothers Band never showed up in the first place? There would be no band playing at all and then the amount of beer bottles being thrown around would be 100 times more than what was thrown at the Blues Brothers playing that first song. What would Bob have done with no band showing up at all? So technically the Blues Brothers saved the day.

Suggested correction: Hardly a plot hole if what they did was save the day for the bar. The original band not showing up is just really lucky for Jake and Elwood; the only thing that could have saved them doing a gig and not have the band members leave again. Without any band, the bar would probably just be more deserted, rather than full like it was.

Jake: Hit it.

Trivia: In every John Landis film, you can see or hear the phrase "See you next Wednesday." In this film, it's the big movie ad sign (starring King Kong) where a police car is hiding behind.

Question: Did John Belushi do all the dancing, especially the turnovers in church, by himself or was it a double?

Answer: It was a double, and the "making of" documentary on the DVD shows this.

David Mercier

To be fair, John did do a lot of flips and dancing as Jake; just not all of them in the movie.
