After seeing a comment on one of the other threads, I got to thinking. What are your favorite throwaway lines in the movie?
Mine has got to be:
"Did you get my Cheez Whiz, boy?"
Willie 'Too Big' Hall: So, Jake, you're out, you're free, you're rehabilitated. What's next? What's happenin'? What you gonna do? You got the money you owe us, *beep*
shareBurton Mercer: Hi! Wanna hand me the mike? Thanks a lot.
Burton Mercer: [speaking in radio] Hi, this is car um...
[to Officer Mount] What number are we?
Officer Mount: Five-five.
Burton Mercer: [to radio] Car 55. Um... we're in a truck!
Sister Mary Stigmata: Get out, and don't come back until you've redeemed yourselves.

Elwood: Baby clothes...
Jake: This place has got everything.
"Where'd those Blues Brothers go?!!"
"We're the Good Ole Blues Brothers.... Boys...Band"
"Use of unnecessary force in the apprehension of the Blues Brothers...has been approved."
"Well thankyou pal! The day I get outta prison, my OWN brother picks me up ina police car."
"Murph & the Magictones? And I thought I had it bad in Joliet".
If we're talking true throw away lines:
"Piers 1 Imports"
"What the hell are them freak peckerheads playin!"
"That ain't no Hank Williams song!"
Both Elwood and the police officer chasing the brothers remember to say "thank you" to the guard at the County Assessor's.
Delayed "Owww" from Elwood after Jake hits him at the gas station.
The late, great Charles Napier's expression as he realizes his foot has been glued to the gas pedal, and says quietly to Bob: "Ahm. We have a little problem." (Paraphrasing).
"I have always loved you." And Henry Gibson's reaction.
Yes to "We're in a truck."
'Who is that girl?"
Carry was in a few pretty big movies that summer, The Blues Brothers was released a week after Empire Strikes Back.
Use of unnecessary violence in the apprehension of the Blues Brothers HAS been approved.
