His name is mentioned after the beginning. There were 2 roles offered to him that went to Keaton which were NIGHT SHIFT and MR.MOM. Not to mention they were both offered Bill Murray's role in GHOSTBUSTERS which Belushi would have been in if he hadn't died. I'm wondering if he had lived could he have played this role? It probably would have been close to home like Robert Downey jr. in LESS THAN ZERO. Belushi never made it to reahab and i wish he did.

How about when Daryl says to Martin near the beginning about the girl, "If she (the girl) dies, they're (the cops) gonna say I pulled a John Belushi on her!" Belushi died of an overdose, but was someone with him that was also using at the time I wonder?

Hes probably referring to the fact that a woman was charged with murder bc she was Belushis drug dealer
