"It's 106 miles to Chicago. We have a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses."

"Hit it."

"Chickenwire?"

"Lot of space in this mall."

"Use of unnecessary violence in the apprehension of the Blues Brothers has been approved."

"What kind of music do you normally have here?"

"Oh we got both kinds: Country and Western!"

That ain't no Hank Williams tune!


The Blues Brothers contained quite probably the largest number of car accidents ever to appear in a single film. The Blues Brothers was also at least partially responsible for the genre of "amazing comedy cast" films which has only become more popular since the inaugural class of "Saturday Night Live" stars graduated to film in the early-to-mid 1980s.

The performances around John Belushi and Dan Akroyd are arguably the more entertaining. Carrie Fisher's jilted bride on a mission and John Candy's offering to order orange whips for the heavily-armed police officers at the R&B review are just as funny as any of the quotable lines in the film.

Game over, man! Presenting the Number Seven Most Quotable Movie of All Time!
