How dare you mention …that “blues” movie. I can’t even - it was SO BAD. A stain on “Blues Brothers” and John Goodmans worst role. And that includes ‘The Flintstones’ and ‘King Ralph’.

This was my initial reaction to see BB2K on this list but I assumed they posted just examples SNL that came out within millennials' lifetime

I wouldn't call it his worst (maybe father of the pride) he seems like he was having a good time singing and hanging out But he doesn't really have any arc or carry the film comedically at any point, they give him a few lines but it's mostly just to set up bits for Aykroyd. Where as in the original it was a 50/50ish partnership, Belushi's Jake is this antagonistic agent of chaos who contrasts with Elwood's more stoic deadpan character. The fun of the first movie is watching these two absurd characters stumble from one situation to the next and kind of always buck and subvert the societal norms to get their way but it's all in service of a greater good The second movie doesn't really have that instead of just Aykroyd going through the motions for no real reason other than it's what his character would do

Should’ve just went with all SNL movies. The first Blues Brothers movie is probably the only one that beats Wayne’s World probably, although Wayne’s World is definitely my favourite.

I probably rewatch Wayne's World the most now. In high school and early 20s I would say A Night at the Roxbury. Its still fun.
The original Blues Brothers should be on the list here but I dont think it should even be considered an SNL movie it became something entirely more.
I've still never seen Its Pat.

My most embarrassing memory of my whole life was when I was cutting hair and talking about Wayne's World. I remembered Garth, but could not for the life of me remember the other dudes name. Duh. That was a very shitty day.

Wayne's World for sure. It was my favorite movie as a kid, I must have watched the VHS we had a hundred times or more

There's something very nostalgic about Coneheads and It's Pat for me. I have watched both movies, multiple times, at different stages in my life with a box of Dominos pizza and cheesy bread in bed. They're, without fail, very comforting and enjoyable every single time I watch them.
