I'm trying to remember any segments that aren't objectionable to somebody. We need that movie to live on, a long, long, long time.

It’s time we changed the blues to the “blacks” to dissociate it from law enforcement and honor those that played it

Good gif. If Aretha Franklin doesn't give you a pass, a pass is not to be had.

WOW. You can't just drive through a crowd of radical protesters like that. The Blues Brothers would not do well in 2020.

Given the whole theme of that movie, I'm glad the OT caught the satrical nature of the original post.

This is the problem with Cancel Culture. Folks don't seem to be able to separate the context of using offensive and racist symbols for comedic effect vs other uses.

FWIW, the Blues Brothers is one of my Top 10 movies of all time (Dr Stangelove is #1, Forrest Gump is #2 and Pulp Fiction is #3).

Nah, they were raised by Curtis so they identified as black from childhood.

Oh wait, you can't do that? So it's OK to identify as a different gender but not race (which are both genetically determined)?

I'm so confused.

The Blues Brothers MUST be cancelled! The fact that Elwood Blues orders dry, white toast is WHITE SUPREMACY!
