Oh yes, isn't it fascinating that they both wear normal clothes that everybody else wears? ;)

[Luisiana Jones]

[VP]

Chewbacca isn't a normal person and he doesn't wear normal clothes.

[Luisiana Jones]

no but im sure he uses a pijama :D

[VP]

So? Chewbacca isn't in Blues Brothers or Indy. Back on topic.

These are the three things worth mentioning. It's still not that coincidental, although I do think its kind of cool that you noticed this.

[Joe Brody]

We're talking Apples and Oranges folks:

"I don't know. I'm making this up as I go."

. . .Compared to . . .

"It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses."

[Tennessee R]

Joe, have you seen Big Fat Greek Wedding?
"Apple....Orange....In the end, we all fruit" ;)

anyway, what about the bullwhip in Blues Brothers?
With the cigarrette and all?

[Indy Parise]

That's right I forgot about that

(Indy Parise bangs head on desk)

They also have some tie to God and the Bible

[Joe Brody]

(Indy Parise bangs head on desk)

[Jokingly] I think the correct response would be to quote Elsa's line about being blind.

And Tennessee -- Touche. That's a good come back.

[Indy Parise]

Also they Both Hate Nazis

LC
Indy: " Nazis I hate these guys

BB
Elwood:" Illinois Nazis
Jake:" I Hate Illinois Nazis

[Joe Brody]

Now you're cooking with grease.

[Indy Parise]

What do you mean

[Indy Parise]

Hey anyone there.....(echo)
Crickets Chirp

[The Belafonte]

Everyone knows the Blues Brothers are gay, and Indiana is straight. However, it is ironic that Indiana Jones is very similar to Spiderman
Spiderman's Mask - Indy's Hat
Spiderman's Tunic - Indy's shirt
Spiderman's Pants - Indy's pants
Spiderman's Webbing - Indy's Whip
Spiderman's Spider Sense - Indy's ability to pass the 3 trials to the holy grail
Its all the same....
They might as well as called him Indiana Spider.
We should all try to connect other people to Indiana
Also Indiana Jones looks exactly like Han Solo, I don't think anyone else has pointed this out

[Indy Parise]

What do you mean their gay. Straight quote by Elwood(Dan Aykroyd) to girl at gas station

" There's a motel up the road, maybe we could, say, "meet" around midnight."

Also, Jake had a fiance (who tries to kill him through the entire movie)

[Joe Brody]

What do you mean

Ever hear the phrase 'Now you're cooking!'? Well 'now you're cooking with grease' is the original colloquialism.

Really??? :confused: I've always heard "now you're cooking with gas."

[Indy Parise]

Ahh. I see now.

[Deadlock]

Okay, I did a little more homework on "cooking with gas"...

Cooking with gas:
Now you're really getting somewhere or making progress

Apparently this idiom originated when gas stoves were first introduced. Cooking with gas was WAY easier for people who had been used to cooking with wood or coal.

(If you can believe what's on the internet... :rolleyes: )

That's sounds correct and 'cooking with gas' may well predate 'cooking with grease'. . . .I take 'cooking with grease' to be a more colorful variant -- recognizing that it takes more skill to cook with grease and that grease yields a tastier (superior) product.

[Deadlock]

...and that grease yields a tastier (superior) product.

...And bypass surgery. :)

[Tennessee R]

All of the slight similarities doesn't really interest me, like everyone wears clothes, but the black tie, and whip, and hat. That is really similar.
And the Spider web attaches to things just like the whip does, although everything else about spiderman is completely different.
