Poll question: What's the best quote from the Blues Brothers movie? |
|
Edited on Mon Oct-03-05 12:25 PM by billyskank
1. "Man, back then we had a band so good it could turn goat piss into gasoline!"
2. "Right. If the shit fits, wear it! Move over, god damn it!"
3. "A. Good country key!"
4. "What kind of music do you usually play?" "Oh, we got both kinds. Country and Western!"
5. "That ain't no Hank Williams song!"
6. "We got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses." "Hit it."
7. "Shit." "What?" "Rollers." "No!" "Yeah." "Shit!"
8. "Well thanks a lot, pal! The day I get out of prison, my own brother picks me up. In a police car."
9. "Car's got a lot of pickup."
10. Other (please specify).

Oh yeah, and there's:
"I don't believe it! It's that shit box Dodge again!"
That's why I had to add the other option. There's waaaaay more than ten good quotes in that film.

"We stole our act from black people"
OR
"We're white...what are we Blue about?"
I'd vote for those, if they were on the list.
:rofl: :sarcasm: :hi:

most have been a different film that I saw then.
You should never get your films from a ghetto bootlegger.

"Who wants an orange whip? Orange whip? Orange whip?..... Three orange whips."
I use it whenever I ask if someone wants a beer.

21. i thought the country key was "D" |
|
but man...there are SO many!!!!
My top 3: "1060 West Addison"
Tucker McElroy: "Well, suppose we ain't got no union cards and go in there and start playin' anyway? Whatcha gonna do about that? You gonna stop us, Stein? Ha. You're gonna look pretty funny tryin' to eat corn on the cob with no fuckin' teeth."
Mystery Woman: "You miserable slug! You think you can talk your way out of this? You betrayed me." Jake: "No I didn't. Honest... I ran out of gas. I, I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts. IT WASN'T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
by the time this thread is over, we probably will have re-printed the whole script

"Were those guys from the union?"
'Union, hell, they skipped out of here owing me a lot of money for beer. What the hell are you guys all dressed up for?'
"We're the Good Old Boys!"
'YOU'RE the Good Old Boys?'

22. "Excuse me, what did you say?" |
|
Jake: 'Five grand? No problem! We'll have it for you in the morning. Come on, Elwood, let's go.'
The Penguin: "No! I will not take your filthy stolen money!"
'Well then! I guess you're really up shit creek, aren't you?' (Sound of Jake getting whacked with a yardstick.)
"Excuse me, what did you say?"
'I offered to help you.'
"Um-huh."
'You refused to take our money.'
"Um-huh."
'Then I said, "I guess you're really up shit creek".' (Sound of Jake getting whacked harder with the yardstick.)

26. "Gee, this mall has everything." My favorite visual: |
|
The beauty parlor where Carrie Fisher works is called "Curl Up & Dye."
I think a big problem for people on this thread is that, sadly, some have only seen BB on commercial TV which rapes it of most of its comedy.
I recently watched my DVD of Animal House with some college friends (and their teenage sons, who were glued to the screen). At one point, the wife of my former roommate leaves the room saying, "I don't remember so much sex in this movie."
She had BIG problems watching it with her sons in the room.
BTW: That was the 25th Anniversary Double Secret Probation Edition of Animal House.

28. From the kitchen of Aretha Franklin's diner: |
|
We got two honkies out there dressed like Hasidic diamond merchants... Wha'd they order? One wants four fried chickens and a coke. JAKE! The other wants dry white toast. ELLWOOD!
I can only paraphrase this part, but it always cracks me up.
