The Nazis chasing the Brothers are launched from an unfinished highway ramp."KL5" on the card that Mercer leaves for Jake at the flophouse.
But the address is that of Wrigley Field. The "fake" address Elwood gives for his driver's license is a real address. 10-Minute Retirement: Elwood gets an unconvincing one in the sequel."We're getting the tropes back together!" The Blues Brothers would later get selected for preservation for National Film Registry in 2020. John Landis helmed the director's chair on both movies. (The death was actually worked into the film's plot it didn't really help, but it was at least respectful to Belushi.) Some admit that though the plot wasn't as up to snuff as the original, the music at least was pretty good. The sequel didn't go over as well as the original, in part because some important players, most notably John Belushi, had died in the interim. There was a sequel titled Blues Brothers 2000 (which was actually produced in 1998). Hilarity Ensues, some damn good music gets played, and every last police car in the City of Chicago is destroyed. Along the way, they meet up with Cab Calloway, Carrie Fisher, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, John Candy, Henry Gibson, Twiggy, Frank Oz, Chaka Khan, John Landis, Paul Reubens, and Steven Spielberg. While listening to a sermon from James Brown, Jake sees the light ( literally) and has an epiphany in the form of a Mission from God: the Blues Brothers must get their band back together so the band can raise the money to save their old orphanage- no matter what. The brothers head to a nearby church as they try to figure out a way to save their childhood home. During this meeting, the brothers learn that the orphanage is about to be closed down if its $5,000 note Roughly $17 K in 2022 property tax bill cannot be paid off by the end of the month. (Elwood is not silent in this film he gives some serious lectures.) Fulfilling a promise made before Jake began serving his sentence, the brothers go to the Chicagoland orphanage where they grew up and visit "The Penguin", the nun who runs the place. "Joliet" Jake Blues has just been released from prison, with Elwood there to pick him up in a battered piece of crap that used to be a police car. In 1980, they got a musical-extravaganza feature film-titled The Blues Brothers-that quickly and deservedly became a Cult Classic.
