** [[RuleOfFunny Because she can.]]
* This may be a minor thing, but I always wondered by Nia Peeples didn't sing more. She is a very talented singer and had a music career at the time, yet she only sings one line from New Orleans at the end. Maybe her role as an antagonist didn't allow for it?
** Also, that line was at the ''very'' end of the cast credits, right before the Russian goons. Given her extremely key role in the entire movie, it seems strange they buried her after all the brief cameos.

* If Jake (and Curtis) had been dead for years and Elwood didn't find out until after he was released, how does that happen? Was the prison really that lazy or they just wanted to make him miserable as shit once he was free?
** Less that they were lazy and more that it sorta slipped through the cracks. Everyone thought that someone else had told him and that he already knew.
** Maybe it's a callback to the first film - what were they going to do, take away the one thing that kept him going in there? They took the liberty of bullshitting him.
** One must wonder why Elwood is surprised to hear Curtis was dead. Curtis was obviously in his late sixties, and Elwood's prison term extended over 20 years.
*** Maybe less "surprised", more "stunned at actually having it confirmed for him". There's intellectually knowing someone you love has probably passed away several years ago, and there's having it outright confirmed for you.
* Why did Queen Mousette turn them into zombies for the Funky Nassau number, and then turn them to stone afterwards?
