Corrected entry: Near the start, when the nun throws Dan Ackroyd's tissue in the bin, listen closely - that's the heaviest tissue I've ever heard. (00:08:35)
Blues Brothers 2000 (1998)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: John Landis
Starring: John Goodman, Dan Aykroyd, Frank Oz, Tom Davis, Walter Levine
Revealing mistake: Just after they dump the tacks out of the window, the Russians' car flies up into the air in a really quite impressive car crash. Just before it flips over though, you can see the huge ramp put in front of it. (00:32:20)
Elwood Blues: Duck, give me a mountain tempo in A minor.
Trivia: When Dan Aykroyd and John Goodman drop off the Russians, the Perry Mason theme music is playing. Nia Peeples (Lt. Elizondo) was in a Perry Mason TV movie in 1990 (The Case of the Silenced Singer).
Question: What does Buster mean that he'll be put in a foster home with people who don't love him? What's gonna happen to him if he lives with them?
Answer: He was just saying it pessimistically. Although, depending on which reports you read, 1 in 3 children are abused by their foster parents. In addition, many children in the system also get placed into several different homes during their childhood (since fostering children is not the same as adopting them), leaving the children to feel unloved by their foster parents.
I don't know the frequency with which it actually happens, but there are also neglectful foster parents whose sole motivation is the monthly stipend from the state, rather than a genuine interest in their wards' well-being.
Answer: Foster homes are meant to be temporary. While, hopefully, foster parents will be kind and caring to the children in their charge, they cannot form overly strong attachments that would only cause emotional trauma for a child when they transition to another living situation.

Correction: It lands with a wet thud after excessive nose wiping. It's meant as a joke.
