so after some thought about how impossible it would be.  I think TJ stage preforming The Blues Brothers is a way better pipe dream than to pull off Tommy.  I don't know who's going to sing for Aretha Franklin or James Brown or any of the other icons that stud the cast, but god damn it wouldn't it be fun.

Wasn't that movie rated R?

it was

[averyisle]

yeah but it's all from profanity that could very easily be edited out. there are also the illinois nazi's which pushed it up. Maybe the comical violence involving carrie fisher? no sex, no nudity, no killing, no violence that isn't slapstick-y

i don't know. to me all of that spells pg-13

CONTENT WARNING: The Blues Brothers is rated R for swearing. The four-letter words clock in at nearly 40 instances, with frequent crude phrases and Lord's name taken in vain six times. Some of the bad guys Jake and Ellwood tick off are the local Klan (a few racial epithets slip by). There is also some violent explosions and gun play, courtesy of Carrie Fisher. The most pervasive questionable content by far, however, is the nonchalant attitude toward beer and cigarettes.
