I may be gay, and I liked Blues Brothers 2000

How come more people didn't like Blues Brothers 2000 after the first one is treated with such reverence? As far as sequels go, it wasn't the Godfather 2, but it wasn't Police Academy 6 either.

Sure, it didn't have John Belushi, and Dan Akroyd got a bit annoying at times, and some of the action scenes were dumb and the movie could have been trimmed from about 2 hours to 90 minutes (especially the car pileups and the zombie scene), and it did have a little kid sidekick, but he was pretty funny. As far as cute sidekicks go, he added some levity without veering into Jar Jar Binks territory.

Plus, there were some AWESOME jams in that movie, especially the final one that essentially rolled over the credits as well, which possessed me to put down my bowl of oatmeal and pick up my Danelectro to jam along. And it was cool as hell to see all the cameos by famous blues and soul guys.

I probably didn't have my wits about me (it was really early in the morning) when Akroyd and John Goodman walk past a pretty blonde with nice pouty lips sweeping the floor and my first thought was "she's cute!" and it turned out to be Jonny Lang. But that's Jonny Lang's fault for having such silky blonde hair and full, lusiciously painted lips that any chick would kill for. Those things must have been stung by like 20 bees at the same time. I didn't even realize it was him until he started wailing on a sweet Telecaster with twin humbuckers. However, he's at least a distant distant second to Jack Bauer on my "if I was going to switch teams list."
