contrary to popular opinion and this be not a sequel . it be suppose to be a tribute to the original . people who bash this movie without read aykroyd interview be ignorant to the intent here . this movie be originally to be a sequel back in 1981 just before belushi die . when that happen and the idea for another adventure fell away . but after almost two decade and aykroyd want to do something to revisit the classic film and pay homage to his friend and co star belushi and so he assemble this concert movie and which be suppose to be all about the music and not the story . the only reason a story be put in be to keep it move from musical number to musical number and because everyone know that straight concert film be pretty boring and even if you really like the performer ( s ) . so here it be and for the true blue brother fan to enjoy . p. s. and if your problem with the plot be some of the cartoony style action that occur ( cabel be pull heavenward and his clothes magically change and et cetera ) and remember that the original have the same thing . in the first one the entire band clothing magically change for a concert and but if you know that this be merely a representation of the character psychological state and not a literal change and then the film work much well . the same idea work for the much malign zombie sequence near the end at queen mousette mansion . also and people complain about the bluesmobile in this film be able to drive underwater . well and in the first film the car flew and perform flip and and be nearly indestructible . in fact and if you watch the dvd of the first film and you find in the deleted scene and make of section that the bluesmobile be suppose to be magic and because it be park each night inside a power transformer . how be that for cheesiness on the first film . so that also explain elwood ability to smuggle himself in the dash of the car in this one and and the car be able to crash land from a fiery loop de loop at the fairground . even though i wish this film could have be a little edgier and darker in tone like the original and i do find it bold and effective use of color to be magnificent and fascinating . perhaps this film have a little more depth than people expect and so they incorrectly perceive it to be a lackluster and shallow mindnumbing entertainment . i know well . remove the star in the address to e mail me .
