On what street were the brothers when Elwood jumped the draw bridge?

[88LTDCV351]

Did anyone answer the first question? If not, it was a caddy but it was only mentioned in the beginning of the film. The car that replaced it and was known as the bluesmobile was a former Mt Prospect 1974 Dodge Monaco with the 270 horsepower 440 big block. This same 440 before smog, put out up to 370 horsepower in those 1969 Polara police cars. The next bluesmobile was a 1990 LTD Crown Vic for the Sequel "Blues Brothers 2000".

[88LTDCV351]

Also, according to an article by Dodge, Dan Ackroyd's brother in law still has the original 74 Dodge Monaco.

[88LTDCV351]

Also, I believe it was said that the interior color in the movie for the 74 was not the correct color for Mt. Prospect PD. If I recall correctly, the color interior in the film was the color more commonly used in California Highway Patrol cars.

[GetMeMyStogie]

There actually a small street sign in the scene that says east 95th street

[Motorhead350]

Cool! So what's your next question Brad?

[RoyLPita]

Entertainment Weekly placed Blue Brothers 2000 at #4 on the Worst Sequels Ever Made as of 2007.

[Motorhead350]

I actually really enjoyed it when it came out. I was 12 and the character Buster motivated me to start practicing more. I grew to dislike it, but even when I was 12 there was no comparison to me.

[Blackened300a]

I was OK with it until that moment when Dan Aykroyd's head came out of the dashboard. That was a WTF moment and the end of the movie for me.

[Motorhead350]

I found that funny, but I was 12. What ya gonna do? I was bummed that they left Chicago for a lot of the filming. Then someone on the morning radio said it was the worst remake ever. When they said that it occured to me it was more a remake then sequal and that did it for me.

[duhtroll]

I never even saw the movie.

I just knew I couldn't handle it.

Kinda like with Battlefield Earth, Waterworld, and every Will Ferrell or Ben Stiller movie.

Question, when the Blues Brothers left Bob's Country Bunker with Bob and the Good Ol Boys in Pusuit, the troopers were hiding behind a billboard, what was written on the Billboard?

[SC Cheesehead]

Who knows where they filmed the scene where the Illinois Nazis launched their car off "into oblivion" at the end of the unfinished bridge (i.e. where was the bridge located)?

[tbone]

In what real northern Illinois town was the beach scene filmed, where they were driving the Bluesmobile on the beach, while advertising the concert over the loudspeaker? And what is the beach resort called?

You have the tv on right now, don't you?:shake:

[SC Cheesehead]

Yep. The bridge jump was filmed on an actual drawbridge, the 95th Street bridge over the Calumet River, on the southeast side of Chicago.



Who knows where they filmed the scene where the Illinois Nazis launched their car off "into oblivion" at the end of the unfinished bridge (i.e. where was the bridge located)?


I believe it's Skokie.

Actually, in the final car chase scene, the shot leading up to the car drop, where the "Illinois Nazis" drive off a freeway ramp; was shot in Milwaukee near the Hoan Bridge on I-794. At the time, the Lake Freeway (North) was under construction and it contained an unfinished ramp that the Nazis "drove off". f you drive over that section now, the Summerfest grounds will be right below you.

what emblem letter is missing on the bluesmobile on maxwell street

[PonyUP]

You have the tv on right now, don't you?:shake:

:lol: No actually it's a John Landis thing. In every movie for some reason he works in the phrase "See You Next Wednesday" Which is a throw away line from the movie 2010. Most the time he fits this in with Dialogue, however in the Blues Brothers that's what is written on the Billboard "See you Next Wednesday"

Actually Elwood did take his hat off when they got to his apartment. And Hus hat came off when the building collapsed. Jake never took off his hat, Elwood never took off the glasses. Jake had a timex digital watch, broken returned to him when leaving prison.

Off topic. Brad, start a Die Hard thread. This will be cool. Duhtroll, I didn't know that. I though it was all to do with gigs. Ok then. So who sang Your Cheating Heart?


Had to look it up, but according to google it was Kitty Wells, though a number of performers have sung it.

BTW -- I can't believe that movie goes back to 1988 .... 23 years already. Time flies.

Tell me about it, I still remember when it came out. I saw it on opening day and it is still my favorite movie. 2 more years and I think it can be official categorized as a classic, maybe it will show up on Turner Classic Movies :D

What PA system did Murph and the Magictones use (visible in the hotel restaurant scenes)? I ask this because the speakers are immediately recognizable to many musicians as one of the most popular PA's of the 70s.

[Motorhead350]

Adam, I really don't know P.A.s. I do remember them saying they bought 3 Fender amps for $800 a piece later in the film. I am guessing that could be it, but when you said P.A. system that threw me off.

Is this the answer you are looking for?

[a_d_a_m]

Nope.
I looked at all the questions in the thread and most of the easy ones are taken. This is not an easy question.

I will say this...I have the same PA system in my basement as we speak.

[Motorhead350]

Mackie? Peavy?

I have no idea. I am not good with P.A.

I think you can tell me what kinda guitar the kid was trying to steal at Rays.

Give me the make and model. I know you know. :)

[a_d_a_m]

I am pretty sure it was a Fender Strat. Can't remember for sure and I'm not going to cheat by putting the movie on.

And the PA system, since nobody else will likely get it...Shure Vocal Master.
http://www.prosoundweb.com/images/uploads/ShureVocalMasterRWG.jpg

I have one in my basement. Sounds amazing after all these years. I actually used one of the columns for my guitar amp for several years!
