Exquisite Suffering 142: Blues Brothers 2000
Added 2022-06-01 21:59:56 +0000 UTCThe year 1998 brought us a Blues Brothers revival that shouldn't have happened, and which nobody wanted. But Dan Akyroid's face gets itchy without those sunglasses, and he charged ahead anyway. Then they made a game adaptation of the movie, kind of, two years later. Instead of talking about that, we talk about the ways that movie revivals have changed, and get really fixated on rebooting the horrible movie "Stealth."

Pretty funny episode!

Yeah it's kind of dorky and embarrassing, but the original was too (though to be fair the kid Blues Brother ups the ante on that significantly) You watch it for the car crashes and the weird musical numbers, and those are fine in 2000. But I never saw the original as this untouchable classic, so maybe I'm just missing the thing that makes it so hated by so many people.
