Is this anything

[rebeccaotool]

*Sitting in my corner, waiting for The Blues Brothers/Blues Brothers 2000 to get rediscovered*

The series has:

Neurodivergent representation (Dan Akroyd is Autistic IRL, and arguably his character Elwood Blues).

Platforming minority artists, many of whom had fallen out of the limelight during the time of the first film.

Explicit condemnation of Nazis, white supremacy, and cops.

Musical numbers across a variety of generas, often by some of the best artists in the business.

Multiple car chases.

Support for found families.

A little light on female representation, but when there are women they typically kick ass. Including but not limited to Carrie Fisher, Nia Peeples, and Aretha Franklin.

Now, are either of these movies perfect? No. There are a few oofs. Fewer than you'd expect, though. And they're definitely overdue to be rediscovered.

Then we can all chuckle at the conservatives tearing their hair out about the films being 'woke' to boot.

MY FIRST EVER EDIT OUAGH

Do you think he just stood there like that all night

More Blues Brothers ponies!

This time...BB2K! Also yes I doodled these in my Garfield notebook cuz I love Garfield.

Quick note here: Buster would have gotten his cutie mark when he said goodbye to Mack and Cab, so for the majority of the film he would've been a blank flank.

Saw the replica Bluesmobile today !!!!! It was so cool I even got to talk to the guy who owns a bunch of these sorts of movie cars and brings them to events and we are now on a first name basis B) He also thought my Elwood earrings were cool and I showed him the Made in America record I had literally just bought at a nearby shop while I was there for this event !! The guy also told me about how he had to hand make the pack of Chesterfield cigarettes on the dash and what reference he had to work from in the movie for it

They also had the Ecto-1 !! The Ecto-1 is probably the one they bring to events the most (that and their DeLorean) so I’ve seen it a good few times now

Pride and Joy: The Publication

Chapter one and two is here! Excerpts under the cut

In 1990, Jake Blues gets out of prison due to overpopulation. Feeling a sense of guilt and irritation due to leaving Elwood behind, he starts out his freedom by stalking bars and feeling isolated. No wonder why Elwood got a second job while he was in prison. However, one night he meets someone new…

In 2006, Kat finds out her dad is officially dead, has been for years. There goes her ticket to freedom! Having been stuck in the foster care system since she was born, all she wants is out. Frustrated, all she wants to do is give up. However, what her foster sister says is true: he did have a brother…. — “But Elwood, we need to find her. It feels like…” “Divine intervention?” “That’s right! You know I always go to the gas station for snacks after school, right? Well, that gas station was closed for repairs. I decided to wander around a bit before going home, got struck with nostalgia. Remember when we brought in that huge crowd at Memorial Park?” “We got a ticket for playing so loud. Half the neighborhood was awake.” “Exactly! And she happened to be there! Kat Carter!” “Kat Carter.” And it all made sense, then. It was a message from God.

so the next game is Blues Brothers 2000 I... never heard of this game? or have seen anything about it? it is almost decent 3D platmormer but... then these """"rhythym""" game comes up and it is literally impossible to I had to give up early lol

Body Harvest I dont know why I thought this was the name of a horror franchise... but anyway lol this is another shooter, plays better than the ones I got to play so far tho! it has an interesting exploration feel to it, but as soon as I died I thought of giving up already, because it only saves after bosses and there are big chunks of stages between them.... But thanks to the power of emulation I continued with save states! It is very interesting, each stage is in a differen place AND time in the world and they are big exploration based chunks, very interesting game, I think it is a good one, but I am not really willing to deal with the jank for that long hah

final one for now is Bomberman 64 the first of 3 bomberman games that exist for the N64! Listening to the songs from the first two worlds in this game was always very nostalgic for me even tho I never plaied this one! The entire ost is very nice, but those are my favorites... Anyway, gameplay-wise it is a pretty ok game, they manage to make a 3D platforming with no jumping through the use of bombs and stuff I will definitely try to finish this (with infinite lives cheat on lol) But I will probably not try to get 100% I tried to look up how to get all the "golden cards" on the first stage and the stuff the creators expect you to do is in the level of speed run exploits, it LOOKS like a glitch, but it is intended tech, and I hate that for melkgdhsglkhd I am aware I miss out on a true final thing if I dont get all of the cards but I guess I will just have to accept that, like with blast corps :/

Blues Brothers 2000 (1998)

This is a Movie Health Community evaluation. It is intended to inform people of potential health hazards in movies and does not reflect the quality of the film itself. The information presented here has not been reviewed by any medical professionals.

Blues Brothers 2000 has some strong lightning strobes during a musical number, for which there are several shots of warning that a storm is rolling in. Several scenes have police cars that use spinning-style lights. Very brief strobes are used when a character uses magic. Machine guns are used a few times in the first half-hour of the film. Other mild strobe effects include a blinking computer screen and some patterned lights on city signs at night.

Several scenes take place inside moving vehicles, but all of the camera work is either stationary or very smooth.

Flashing Lights: 6/10. Motion Sickness: 1/10.

TRIGGER WARNING: A white supremacist militia group is depicted.
