On a high def mission from God...

Product Description
Bringing their "SNL" characters to the big screen, John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd are Jake and Elwood Blues, two ex-con, music-loving brothers out to reunite their old band so they can raise money to save the Chicago orphanage where they grew up. Filled with wild car chases and songs from such guest stars as James Brown, Cab Calloway, Ray Charles, and Aretha Franklin, John Landis' high-octane comedy also stars John Candy, Carrie Fisher.

Picked this up over the weekend. Worth it for the fact that both the theatrical and extended versions are now in DTS 5.1.

It was my first ever BluRay disc, the bonus material is brilliant. The sound is also greatly improved.

A classic!! My Mom's Pinto was the same model driven by the Illinois Nazis. I took extra pleasure when the car plummeted from a mile up!

It's the same bonus material as on the previous DVD. My only complaint about the bonuses is that they've fixed the aspect ratio at 4:3, which means I can't stretch it to fill my screen. I now have black bars on the sides of the screen.

Still, a small price to pay for the sonic upgrade.
