Here's The BOONDOCK SAINTS II Trailer!!
Merrick here...
Ten years after the release of THE BOONDOCK SAINTS (has it been ten years?), writer/director Troy Duffy is reuniting many cast members (including Sean Patrick Flanery, Billy Connolly, Norman Reedus, Bob Marley, and Brian Mahoney) for a follow-up.
IGN now has the trailer for BOONDOCK SAINTS II: ALL SAINT'S DAY...
...which originates HERE (where you can see it larger, and in higher resolution).

+ Expand All
-
That is all for now.
-
Like how Pirahna did.
-
Looks like it could be mildly entertaining. I'm sort of middle ground on the first flick, I'm not one of those that bash it and Duffy's direction (although Overnight proved he's an egotistical dick), but I'm also not one of those loyalist fanboys who tattoo quotes from the flick on their balls. I reserve that right for Spielberg's Hook.
Also, Powder looks like he aged forty years instead of ten. -
Overnight 2: Die Harder.

Yeah SPF doesn't look good. What happened between The Dead Zone and now? Yikes.
-
...but it sure smells good!
-
the warehouse that they shot this in. This looks like it had the budget of a Flavor of Love episode...
-
I wonder if troy duffy will blame harvey weinstein when this movie tanks. Yeah the first boondock saints did ok on dvd (and vhs, ha) but that was a different era. This sort of crap 1990's-style righteous hitman movie is so played out I can't imagine anybody would finance this thing.
-
So hot.
-
Uninspired gunfights with bad slow motion... But who knows..
-
it is about how huge of a tool, douchebag troy duffy is. i watched it twice in a row. great documentary
-
Seriously, it's one of the most juvenile movies I've ever seen. And people went nuts for it when it came out. What a load of absolute kack. Watch Overnight instead.
-
yes, "over-night" is an amazing documentary. when i finished watching it, i immediately started it over and watched it again. troy duffy is a coke head douche bag of epic proportions.
-
Did i see the new dective soaking up the crime scene like defoe did?
Chances are its the same old bollocks, bad plot bad acting and cheap hooks. -
I enjoyed the first film, as an action comedy. It's not the kind of movie to be taken seriously, as so many of you seem to have done.
-
Looks like total shit.
-
Overnight should be shown in every filmschool on the planet. That, and Lost In La Mancha.
-
I think the charm of the first one is that it was just what it was. Out of left field, whacko shite. This feels like it's trying to be the first. . .only Boon-dockier; like it's telling one big inside joke with a bigger price tag attached to it. . .
-
This just in: moronic indie flick about Irish mobsters spawns equally moronic sequel! Dropkick Murphys providing entire score! News at 11!
-
WTF, is she ageless? She looks better now than she did in her Buffy/Angel days, and she was smokin' back then. I think I need to rent "Darkdrive" again.

Didn't a Doc about the first "Saints" show how talentless this g
by damianvonbarone
The director is a complete idiot
-
And this sequel looks even worse.
-
i don't know how "out of left field" it was. i always saw it as a tarantino rip off
-
I hope this movie is good, but the trailer doesn't exactly fill me with hope. They replace Dafoe with some chick that seems to be copying his acting style from the first movie. Not a good sign. It feels forced in the trailer, and because of the fact that this has been in the making for ten years.
-
No idea.
-
yep, we've been talking about it. its called "over-night"
-
WTF?
-
How did Troy Duffy pull himself out of the hole we saw him in at the end of Overnight?
-
you talkbackers. i thought the first film was amazing. It had some really great lines that just screamed cool. its not about mr. dafoe being in drag, its the snappy lines he says during the crime scenes. it has some great themes as well; the professional vs the amatuers with an amatuer on the main team. vigilantism vs remorse for criminals, and it had an interesting twist with the dude being thier pop. you cant tell me you dont enjoy the scene when the shootout is being played out while dafoe re-enacts it. thats some good shit. i enjoyed the first movie, i wont call it brilliant, but i enjoyed it. excited for the next.
-
please dont bring a fantastic punk band into all of this.
-
I agree with you, the first one has some cool moments, but that doesn't warrant an automatic pass for the sequel. Nothing I've seen of, or heard about the second movie, has the same feeling as the first one.
-
Seriously Doesn't look as bad as Shoot'em Up. That movie was fuckin' horrible. this will be better
-
Sean Patrick Flanery, Billy Connolly, and Clifton Collins all look like meth heads in this. I've never thought Clifton was cool. He's like John Leguizamo minus the funny.
-
Fuck you, Troy Duffy.
-
A nice little comical action flick with some badass scenes and lots of cool dialogue. This trailer doesn't really do much for me, but I'll give it a shot! Would've been nice if Dafoe was back, rather than get someone else who's just like him, which is lame... unless this chick IS Dafoe's character post-op... What a twist!
-
They did say she was his protegé...
-
...pretty cool and fun. And it obviosuly struck a nerve with a certain cult demographic. Which si also cool. That said as much as I love seeing Billy Connolly in movies, this just reeks of forced trite.The moment I saw Julie Benz doing the same shtick as Willem from the first one, I just audibly groaned.
The first one was a fun DTV movie that gained some deserved attention. But there's a reason it wasn't released wide, it's that even by 1999 folks were over that whole Matrix/John Woo style. That's why Equilibrium wasn't released either. They are definitely over it now. -
point taken. and i agree as well. i never saw boondocks having a sequel. so i will be skeptical as well, but as is the trend with sequals (at least for me) i enjoyed the first and will be seeing the second. the dafoe copy scares me too. that may just be the downfall of the entire flick.
-
'Big Momma's House 3' thread.
-
...have some kind of serious fascination with vigilantism? Angel, Dexter, Rambo, Punisher: War Zone, now this. Does she not get offered anything else?
-
HOT!

how come no one is talking about avatar anymore.
by nerd_rage_retard_strength
because its going to suck? is that why?
-
followed by 18 glasses of water a day?Dude looks bloated as hell in this trailer, in most shots he looks like ryan renoylds
-
Did Willem Dafoe's character have a sex change operation? That would be hilarious.
-
Until they credited his name. Julie Benz... ISIIHB.
-
I will also see the sequel. My curiosity must be fed! But yes, there are snakes in this grass..
-
WTF? I can't keep up.
-
Nor Julie Benz, for that matter.
-
Not another cliche story of drugs and mispent youth, please!
-
Bring Christial Bale back for a sequel to THAT. Please.
-
Turned it off after maybe 30 minutes, then begrudgingly sat through the rest of it. I don't understand its popularity.
-
I had heard for years what a great movie Boondock Saints was. I saw the documentary about the writer/director and what a total and complete asshole he is.So one day I just up and bought the Blu-ray. What the hell, it was on sale for $12.99.Turns out it's mostly a very juvenile piece of shit. Not total garbage, but nothing really noteworthy. It really seems to lose itself about halfway through and become some bizarro gunslinger/Death Wish fantasy.
-
nobody ever liked booncock saints...

Boondock Saints II: Go Notre Dame & Down with Black People!
by rickey henderson
-
"Is it dead?" The cat part was my favorite of the first. And Julie Benz rocks my world.
-
http://tinyurl.com/mmvnh
-
Boondock Saints sucks. It's ALWAYS sucked. It's the only movie I've ever seen where, when it was over, I was actually angry with myself for sitting through it.
-
I would get it if people loved it because it was so bad...like Manos or Plan 9 or whatever that other one that's big right now. But instead the people who like this steaming pile like it because they think it's a good movie. I also don't get how of all the post-Pulp Fiction, Tarantino rip-offs that have come out, how does this one, which is clearly the worst of the rip-offs, become such a big cult hit? No love for Way of the Gun? Or 2 Days in the Valley?
-
Because I was sure he was dead. It looks like him walking after that shot of Peter Fonda.
-
God damn it.
-
Good call.
-
Julie Benz looks hot...even hotter than in RAMBO. Can't believe this film finally came out.
-
Because I can't imagine it making much at the box office. It'll come and go within a week at theaters.
-
Equilibrium WAS released into theaters. I saw it with some friends at the AMC 30 in Houston years ago, and we all thought it was better than the Matrix at the time. Boondock Saints also hit theaters, because I took a girl on a date to see it because she had a thing for Sean Patrick Flannery (we were in theater and had gone to see some scenes of Powder that were filmed in Deer Park). Oh yeah, and people weren't "over that John Woo/Matrix shit" in 1999, the Matrix came out in 1999. As for Boondock Saints II, although I still enjoy the first one for a "kick back and veg" flick, and I'll definitely see the second one if for nothing more than Julie Benz, the trailer doesn't give me much hope that it will do anything more than devalue the status of the first. Both brothers look too old now, and I have trouble believing their amateur exploits continued for 10 years without getting killed or jailed.
-
REALLY?

I admit that i did liked the anti-PC humour of the first movie
by asimovlives
And the Coca-Cola joke was hysterical.
-
have this movie sitting on your shelf!
-
but, i do have a copy of "over night" on my shelf.
-
I reconsidered.
-
That's criminal. He's got just as much name recognition as Peter Fonda.
-
Every 18-24 yr old I work with lists this as one of the greatest films of all time. I ask them if they've seen Pulp Fiction. They all say no. I tell them to go back to school.
-
Because, Troy Duffy is one of the biggest a-holes on the face of the Earth and he has enough bad karma built up to not deserve a second chance.
-
He looks like he's having an allergic reaction or something. This trailer looked pretty good, about what I expected from this movie. First one was fun, nothing groundbreaking, this looks like more of the same, with maybe a little more money. Plus, Clifton fucking Collins Jr man!
-
Whatever, I still like it. I love the Willem Dafoe detecting scenes.
-
Quite a talent.
-
Rewatching the first was ok. Sure Willem Dafoe was amazing, but overall something lacked.
Still better than say Punisher War Zone. -
I think someone asked up top there. Overnight was a documentary made by "friends" of boondock director writer Troy Duffy. Troy Duffy starts the movie as a Bartender who sells his first screenplay, goes to being the young toast of hollywood, then loses it all. And, important part, everything bad that happens to him is his own damned fault.
-
I saw that film in theaters twice!
-
Is another better than this.
Any HK cop/gangster film is better. -
It achieves this despite a somewhat amusing performance by Dafoe.
-
Even more so when she went brunette.
-
I am truly shocked they greenlit this. Flannery and the other dude are grade c stars(although the other guy did blade 2, so he's cool in my book)
-
Bad taste in film I have do I? Saints is simply a guilty pleasure that entertained me. I don't know anything about the director or what ever kind of asshole he is that you folks seem to be obsessed with. But some outside politics have nothing to do with what I'm watching on screen. Anyway, if people like a film simply because they find it funny and entertaining and that bothers you, then kindly make like a tree, and GET THE FOCK OUT!!!
-
It's that good. Second only to American Movie among films about total losers making films.

Boondock Saints II: Willem Dafoe Looks Like Pat Patriot!
by rickey henderson
-
It's actually a litmus test for me to determine someone's taste in movies. If they mention BS as a favorite, I usually know that I shouldn't pursue the conversation any further. Just a terrible movie masquerading as cool. Most of what I remember is people standing 5 feet apart, emptying clips in slow motion at each other without dodging, and nobody hits anything. Dafoe seemed pissed to even be onscreen in that movie, and I can't blame him. This movie actually made me angry with the people who recommended it to me. The only good thing that came out of it was Overnight. -
Great way to paste this up a year late and act like it was nothing. Lame.
-
I'm not going to be so didactic as to say that means you have bad taste. After all, I watch Legend of the Seeker.
-
At least the guy MADE a fucking movie that many people liked. You losers are sitting here spitting hate-filled garbage on this site which sucks anyway.
-
that many talkbackers come here with an agenda, and not to objectively judge a film on its own merits. Hell, there's a guy at the top who bragged about not seeing the film.
-
thrown his way. That tool is a first class douchebag of the highest order. That said, the movie wasn't as bad as some are making it out to be. I just thought is was an above average Tarantino rip-off which were quite ubiquitous at the time.
-
I can see that. I've heard a lot of people say the same thing. I'm thinking Billy Connelley as the old hitman, Willem Dafoe as the drag-wearing, clue-sniffing Fed. The whole "divine mission" thing topped of with the voice-overs. While these things alone might not amount to much, stir them all together and add in a shot or two of Jamesons, and the thing just gels somehow. I got lucky enough to stumble onto it for 9.99 at Bestbuy, so I can't complain.
I'd lump it into the same category as State of Grace. Is it The Seven Samurai? Hardly. But as small movies go, definitely solid enough to put it in my go-to pile. -
...that people like it. For me, this was a case of a movie being hyped by certain friends as "OMG THE BEST MOVIE EVAR!!!1" and when I watched it, it was so bad that it made me question my friends' fundamental taste in movies. And that made me dislike the movie even more fiercely. Sorta like Donnie Darko did for a lot of people... an example of one I thought was a decent movie that was hurt by emo kids hailing it as "TBTE!!!1" But I actually enjoyed DD... there wasn't much at all that I enjoyed about BS, and even that little bit was ruined by the over-hyped recommendations. -
The bad guy with the goatee?

Kaiser Soze, i realize Equlibrium was released in theaters...
by jedirob
...it had a very limited run, as did Boondocks. I believe 5 theaters or something. The majority of people who saw these films saw them on video, as that is where they made their bones.Seeing a film you've never heard of, that is for all intents straight to video, and it being halfway decent is always fun.
Also I am well aware of when The Matrix came out. That's exactly my point. The Matrix was a revolution in the movie goers eyes of this kind of thing, so anything after that would get simple regarded as a Matrix rip off. Oh and I did not say "John Woo/Matrix shit" as you quoted me as such. It was not a derogatory statement. -
The first one was fucking off the charts. I can't wait for All Saints Day.
-
How could a pathological narcissistic nut gargler actually find his hack ass behind the working end of a camera? In front of a camera? Yeah! I could see that happening without question. In varying degrees of insanity - 2 Mean, One Douche / Zoophilia flix / Cops / GOATSE. Stuff like that. If this "film" even gets within a mile of the lameness of its predecessor then it will be one of the worst movies to be released in a long time. And I have recently seen Rape Stove: The Stove That Rapes People.
-
Off the wack charts that is! Not off the chains either. Just kind of.. hanging there. On the chains.
>br>
I've never been so embarrassed as the Dafoe bathroom scene in BDS1. Embarrassed to watch. Embarrassed for Dafoe. Embarrassed to be alive.
Johnno is cool though, so he gets a pass for liking this. -
Shit like this, the big lebowski and fear and loathing in las vegas have followings why? oh yeah because pretentious dick farts wanna feel "indie" Fucking posers
-
You can tell a sequel is good when the the previous movie is looked upon as an unforgivable atrocity upon man!
-
You have gone too far sir.
-
It was fun. So hopefully this one is, too.
-
I found the first to be a quite enjoyable bit of fun. Suck it.
-
How I long to hear him pointlessly swear once again, often five or six times in a single sentence.
-
...BOONDOCK is one of the worst films I've ever seen. That opening credits sequence is one of the most poorly-edited in history. I just felt embarrassed for Dafoe and Connolly the whole time, then wanted to watch OVERNIGHT again.
-
you obviously have not seen "over-night"
-
lebowski should not be part of your rant
-
One of the most blatant Pulp Fiction rip-offs I've ever seen. The ham-fisted "moral question" that appears out of no where for the last third of the film was just fucking painful. That film has THE worst closing credits sequence of all time. It was so fucking pretentious and awful that it made me physically violent.
-
I'll agree, Troy did not come across as very sympathetic in Over Night. As a Boondock Saints fan, I was a very concerned about his behaviour, and I did feel that many of his problems were self-created. Having said that, I have to give him credit for having the guts to make his film at all costs. He is a flawed creature who (like many on this board) has more than a few anger issues, but he got the job done. And ten years after he was supposedly blacklisted from Hollywood, he has a new movie. What should this tell all of you? That there is no justice? That scum floats? NO! It should tell you that you if you have courage and determination and can back that up, you can get a second chance. Sure, Boondock Saints isn't for everyone, but there are A LOT of fans of the movie out there. Get over yourselves, it's like a truck stop men's room in here.

haha I love all the cries of "ain't it slow news"
by talkbacker with no name
It only went up today! jesus wept. You lot need to get off the fucking computer or at least take a break at some point (cheyne_stoking_DMS i'm looking at you mainly)
-
to make a good movie, it doesn't deserve the level of hate it is getting by some of you guys. If it is a bad movie made by lazy people, THEN a movie deserves flaming. It's fine if you didn't like the first one, and fine that you're sceptic about a sequel, but wait till you've seen it before you induce self-combustion or heartattacks. This goes for all movies except fuckin' Bad Boys 3. Everbody KNOWS this movie is going to fail. The former one did, and besides, Will is in it. Bay directs. Come to think of it, the first one was kind of lame too..
-

If you see this movie you deserve to be ASS RAPED
by disney_retcond_my_std
then have that dick that raped you shoved down your throat. this can't even be called a movie. FAIL
-
It may not seem like it but she's got some lovely looking tits. Dexter Morgan is one lucky serial killer. http://www.iceposter.com/thumbs/G80933_b.jpg
-
and told him about this talkback and then he called all of his friends and told them they better come in here and defend his POS movie or else he'll have one of his trademarked hissy fits.
-
Harvey Weinstien's shit!
-
you'd make a great film critic. Yes, mmmhmm those are all some valid points on the films weakest elements.
-
In 1999, it was "cool" to love this film. Now it's cool to hate it, because so many people love it? Anyway, I liked the movie, but the sequel looks like a complete rehash of the first film. Even down to recreating Willem Dafoe's character in a woman. I will miss Rocco, and Ron Jeremy. They were great in the first one. Let's hope they add to the characters, and not just replay the first movie as the preview seems to show.
-
2 Days in the Valley
-
Now of course I realize that its sub-par at best, still I am stoked to see this flick if only because its been talked about forever & I truly thought it would never be made. I remember like 5 years ago I was at a video store & spf was on the cover of some dtv action flick, I picked it up & on the back it listed boondock saints 2: all saints day as one of his credits...I thought that was weird
-
Seeing that I guess this news broke during Comic Con, must've been right after the Avatar panel by then everyone had left.
-
It's going to be one of those flicks that I hate before I even get the chance to see it cause every asshole on the planet won't shut up about it.
-
Duffy doesn't have any friends.
-
Your lumping this in with a Cohen and a Gilliam movie. WOW. For everyone else. You are majorly over reacting to a (at the time) little known movie that gained a bit of popularity because it was a "little known movie". To trash it cause you saw a doc (after the fact) and went into the film already hating the director is bullshit. If you saw it and didn't like it cause you thought it was derivative, fine. Not a whole lot of irish catholic brothers from Boston on here apparently. Rocco was a great character. Adding Benz is a msitake. She was terrible in Rambo. Hot but generally emotionless. This movie was fun. For the record I think a sequal is a mistake. Looks like a polished turd.
-
...and that doc could definitely cause some serious bias.
-
I wouldn't have bought the fucking Blu-ray now would I?I don't give a shit what kind of person the director is. I only care if the MOVIE is any good. I'll bet Quentin Tarantino is an annoying as fuck cocksmoker. But god DAMN he can make good movies.That applies to actors too by the way. I think Tom Cruise is the biggest douchebag that ever lived, but he's also a pretty good actor and I tend to like the projects he picks.
-
...is Troy Duffy and why is he such a unanimous asshole of epic proportions in everyones eyes? please im genuinely intrigued and would like to know.
-
Obviously, that is because I am a naive fool. However, the first movie was very good and unexpected. I hope the sequel does it justice.
-
As I understand it, the Saints panel happened at the same time as the Iron Man 2 panel at Comicon, thats why there were little to no reports of it.
-
only pretentious people like it? wow thats so far off the mark i dunno what to say...just another aicn fucktard spewing shit,and the Big Lebowski haha anything to get a reaction i guess,well you got what you wanted didnt yah weenit diddler.
-
But I LOVE Fear and Loathing. I think it's a fantastmagorial existential trip.
-
Before the documentary came out everyone loved this movie. Its nothing more than a grindhouse vigillante flick with a heart. Its not art. Its fun. But this crowd loves to pretend to hate movies by directors that are assholes. Never mind the fact that most of the greatest directors were unarguably assholes. Ok, let's not compare Troy duffy to Fritz Lang or Polanski, but can we get over this Jerry Springer attitude please?
-
Don't visit the Avatar threads.
-
As an unabashed lover of vigilanteism, I'm a big fan of the first one and can't wait for this one. I WILL admit, however, that the first one does seem to lose its way about halfway thru.
-
in that his epic-douchebaggery ego trip resulted in the entire entertainment industry shunning him for a full decade. It's nice to occasionally get to see Karma in action...
-
True enough. Cameron is a big target though. He can take care of himself. Duffy is an independant director making original genre material. Even the haters have to realize the amout of effort it took him to get financing to make and distribute--even if it took him 10 years to do it. I intend to support him and others like him. I suppose the rest of you will be saving your money for Transformers 3.
-
duffy is not making original material. he is a hack who is ripping off tarantino. booncock saints was never cool.
-
As usual every other site had this up yesterday, but it really doesn't matter. As much as I love the first movie it pains me to say that this looks really awful. Even though Willem Dafoe's character was really cheesily and poorly written in the first one, (and embarrassingly overacted), the movie will dearly miss Dafoe's presence. Not only that, it just looks like shit. P.S. I know cheesily isn't a word fuckers, it just sounded good, lol.
-
Didn't take the time to read the other posts so this may have been touched upon already. To all those who've seen that documentary made about the making of the original, I find it extremely difficult to root for Duffy in any way, shape, or form. What a cocksucker; just a complete egomaniac prick.
-
fact. (i hope he's reading this thread. that would be classic)
-
Continue the joke.
-
Let's just pass by how laughable that statement is, since every Movie Big T has made has been a pastiche of scenes stolen from other movies. Let's instead ask ourselves what movie Tarantino has ever made that had religiously motivated Irish brother vigillantes who are being tracked by an FBI agent who by borderline paranormal means reconstructs their crime scenes. Then, when he catches them, is so moved by their motives that he joins them. Closest might be Natural Born Killers, but I don't buy it. Hmmm. Is it perhaps a ripoff because it's a crime movie? Does Tarantino own the genre? Truth is, some idiot made this statement years ago and its been repeated ad nauseum ever since. It sounds like a good sting, but have any of you lemmings checked to see if the shoe actually fits?
-
has ruined me for all other actioners ('cept maybe Avatar). Fuck Boondock Taints.
Is Troy Duffy that numpty cunt who appeared in that documentary? I'm sure the answer is somewhere in this TB. I'd really like to see that doc again, just for the asshole factor. -
Sep 03, 2009 5:05:33 PM CDT
that looks like some really bad straight to dvd crap
by supercowbell5thecowbellhasspoken
holy shit worse than harrys reviews
-
dude, natural born killers is not a tarantino movie. and duffy ripped of tarantinos style & dialogue, not the literal story of any movie. i stand by my earlier statement. booncock saints sucks and troy duffy is a talentless cunt
-
... because of ranting and raving from a co-worker about how badass and revolutionary it was. Thought it was meh. I guess I just didn't get it. I think the Irish part of me was supposed to be whipped into a mad frenzy or something. Didn't happen.
-
Because of this film, will we get an "Over-Night 2: Bag of Douche Day"? Please let it be true! Over-Night was brilliant! Boondock Saints was the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Over-Night showed me why.
-
I probably should, though I hope it doesn't turn me into a biased Boondock Saints hater. I'd like to think movies should be judged apart from the people who make them. Peter Sellers was supposed to be a real piece of shit, but the guy was hilarious on camera, and that's all that matters to me. As long as he didn't kill kittens or something.
-
The kiss of death.
-
...half the haters probably liked it back in 1999 when they thought they were cool because no one else had heard of it. Now they hate it because fanboys heap praise on it like it's the greatest thing ever. Bottom line is, it's not a great film nor is it a awful one. It was simply an "OK" popcorn flick that probably didn't need a sequel, but got one anyway. Calm down haters. You'll still go on living even though it exists.
-
If one ever gets to go to Holylwood and have the good luck to fall into a studio deal, Overnight is like a lesson on what not to do.
-
...all these talkbackers undoubtedly loved this movie when it came out. Then, once it became popular the movie no longer met their pitiful "indie" criteria. I swear there's no larger herd of like-minded, party-line spewing conformists than the talkbackers @AICN.
Fuck the haters, this looks like the same retarded gun-candy the first one was! So what if Troy Duffy is a colossal douche?? I'll still be there in the theater on opening day. -25 pts for no Dafoe, however. -
I think you hit the nail on the head with that one.
-
OK. You hated it. Now go chat about Mastodon in the Jonah Hex thread.
-
i am actually shocked that there are so many fans of the movie in this talk back. i never remember this movie being cool. i never liked it. my friends never liked it. i always thought it was shit. i had no idea people actually liked this fucked up wreck of a movie... interesting.
question:
are the people who love booncock taints the same people who say that avatar will be the greatest movie ever? -
Sep 03, 2009 5:43:48 PM CDT
Even if he is a jerk, there are plenty of jerks in Hollywood.
by jedirob
And then dude made his movie, and now made another one. I think that's kinda cool. I have no plans to hang out with him, but he did something lots of us would love to and never will. And he did it his own way and while being, maniac and with all odds stacked against him.
-
yeah, he's a fuckin hero. what a champ!
-
...Duffy was such a douche that that all the douches in Hollywood couldn't stand him.
-
But I decided...no. lol no I don't think I'll be in Bumcock Taints 2: Return of the fudge.

..are a favorite double feature of mine. I've made many of my friends sit down to those two movies back-to-back...and it never fails to be both entertaining and thought-provoking.
Oh, and while not a "Tarantino movie," he did develop the story for N.B.K. -
It is epic and awe inspiring and by the end I was absolutely rooting against him. It's amazing that film ends with them dismantling the bar. But I don't let that inform my opinion of the movie.
I don't know. i still think it's a pretty cool fun little movie. A couple of drunk irish kids who fall ass backwards into becoming vigilantes? Billy Connolly as a uber hitman. Come on? That's great. I think it's tons better than plenty of other things that get huge releases and make gobs of money. -
Boondock was a cool little movie, loved it the first time I saw it. On multiple viewings it loses a lot each time; cool little movies often do. The fact that Duffy is and was a colossal asshole and a prick that stands out amongst all the pricks in Hollywood simply makes it a little hard to root for him and has the inner me hoping All Saints Day is a colossal mess. The original was a movie of its time and in its time was pretty cool. It was not important cinema and was never worthy of the enormous praise that was heaped on it by people who can only find self worth in "discovering" something no one else knows about and then shitting on it once it has an audience. I bought Boondock on Blu Ray a few months ago and it was a little painful to watch. The movie has aged horribly and things that were cool in their time are really silly now. It doesn't change the fact that the movie was pretty fun and bad-ass the first time I saw it. I would love to see a sequel of Overnight, watching this jerk-off self-destruct was hilarious the first time, and now that he's grabbing the spotlight again, I'm sure the end result will be similar.
-
It was a direct to DVD in my eyes, so when I watched it, I wasn't expecting much. For a movie with a shitty budget and first time director with no previous movie experience, it wasn't bad. Not great but better than "Stolen Summer" or "Battle of Shaker Heights"... hell it's definitly better than both Punisher films.
Again the nerds love to flame- they can;t help but have a mob mentality. Oh well. -
sure nerds love to flame, but this is not mob mentality. just a large group of people expressing their contempt for this movie and its jack-ass creator. i think more people dislike this movie than like it and don't understand why a sequal is being made. (and it is fun to flame this turd of a "movie")
-
by supporting this movie you are supporting cocaine addiction. you wouldnt support cocaine addiction would you? knowing is half the battle!
-
I mean there's really no chance of it being anything but right? For arguments sake, even if we say there was some charm to the original for what it was, surely it was a fluke of lightning in a bottle. Not a chance that's gonna fly for a second time.
-
But the original was fine for direct to dvd 10 years ago... just sayin.

i would be very excited for "over night 2", though
by nerd_rage_retard_strength
i would pay to see that in the theater...
-
...in reverse. I remember when Blade Runner came out I liked it better than anyone I knew. One day, oh about a decade and a half later, I realized everyone liked it more than I did. When Boondock Saints came out I didn't like it much, but I can't say I outright hated it. Like most of the "I can be Tarantino too" movies it had a few moments that made you smile and a lot more that made you groan. I think my favorite of the lot was Killing Time, but no one even remembers that movie. Now everyone hates it worse than I do. Can we at least all agree the documentary was good but not quite great? And stick to it? Thanks.
-
the documentary was great showing the director's crash and burn
-
fear and loathing, big lebowski and apparently boondock saints are clearly drug movies. If you didn't like these i recommend you get fucked out of your skull and watch it again. these are also social movies that connect to a subculture in one way or another. if you don't like it.."your out of your element..". your opinion is not gospel. you just think it is:p
-
but what the fuck happened to Sean Patrick Flannery's face. I had to IMDB this piece of shit to make sure it was really him.
-
...after getting home from work after talking about it so much. And boy did that dude blow it. If he had just relaxed, just a little bit. Shown just an ounce of humility and kept his mouth shut just once, it may have all turned out different. You really end up feeling bad for his friends.
-
Tarantino is a nice guy according to his peers. Also many an interviewer and fan has gone on record as what a sweet and generous guy he is (unless you are that cocksucker don murphy).
Cruise also is said to be a lovely guy. Strange how all the people outside of his friends, family, fans and peers seem to think otherwise. People with an agenda can be so cruel.
To sum up then. Troy Duffy is a cunt and a shit director. Whatever else he might be I can't comment. But I'll give him this - The boondocks script was kick ass by all accounts. -
how did that Dannie Darko sequel work out for ya?
-
Sep 03, 2009 9:59:55 PM CDT
fear and loathing, big lebowski are on another level!
by talkbacker with no name
Comparing either to Boondock saints is just flat out batshit insane! Not even the most die hard fan of BDS would state such a thing. I smells a few plants. Hell wouldn't be suprised if Duffy was here himself. Come out. come out whereever you are!
-
Boondock Saints is one of the most overrated films of all time.
Seriously.
I did enjoy Billy Connolly in it though, I must admit. -
I loved the Boondock Saints when I saw it, and I just saw it for the first time about two weeks ago. I dunno if it's because movies today are of lower quality so my expectations is lower. Anyway, BS is a fun movie, and a damn good one. Tightly plotted, well acted, very well directed and a geniunely interesting concept. So what else is left to judge the movie by?I don't care if Troy Duffy is a douche. I just want a good movie at the end of the day. With that said, this trailer looks like shit.
-
He's just what Tarantino is accused with here with by haters.
What I can't understand is why Billy Connolly went back for more? Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties was bad enough! -
was the coked up sidekick. Best line after he gets all excited after the hit:
"Calm down."
No, you better start getting fucking excited. Good delivery there. Other than that, pretty run of the mill. -
I'm surprised a sequel ever got made. I thought harvey Weinstein made a solemn vow to bury murphy until the end of time. Does this mean the weinstein bros have finally lost all of their juice in Hollywood?
The first one was terrible. One of my exes owned it and when we broke up she pit it in a box that contained the items I had left in her apt. I figured it was a mistake and tried to give it back and she refused to admit it was hers. I gave it to a homeless man outside her building. If he was able to trade it for crack its probably the best thing to come from that movie being made. -
Someone had to say it.
-
ya know...i've got this on dvd, and i've watched it several times, and it always makes me smile...particularly the crime scenes with dafoe...great dialog. cracks me up every time...and there's a real sense of comraderie between the to guys playing the brothers...and the dafoe 'it was a fire-fight' scene..classic...
I guess this is just one of those things where it just doesn't matter what the rest of the crowd thinks...i happen to like Boondock Saints quite a bit, and I'll definitely see this one when it comes out...everyone deserves a second chance...even arrogant pricks ....oh...and there's another thing...my guess is that there isn't one person in this talk-back that actually knows the director....and everyone is basing there opinion off of a doc created by dudes that definitely had an agenda...so there ya go....I'll enjoy the movie when it comes out, and you all can just go and enjoy...well...whatever it is that you don't hate.... :) -
I agree, you hit the nail on the head. This trailer brought a smile to my face. I'll definitely check it out.
-
Boondock Saints was a cult hit for a reason. Despite all it's flaws, it was an entertaining movie. However, "Overnight" is a better movie to be sure. I also have to agree with some of the earlier posts. This looks like the same movie re-hashed over again. I wanted a sequel years ago. Now, I don't care so much. I hope it is better than the first one.
-
just want to clarify...I didn't put these films in the same category. Some other idiot did. That is like comparing 2 t-bone steaks to a a half eaten Big Mac. All I'm saying is all 3 movies are better if your on drugs. What isn't though. By the way...to anyone who doesn't know how funny Bob Marley is (Greenley). Check him out. Needs a bigger role, like Cuba Gooding Jr in Pearl Harbor.
-
Loved the first one, and am proud to say I have plenty of quotes from it tattooed on my set of fun-boys. I guarantee you this will be better spent $10 than Michael Bays gift wrapped turd of a Transformers sequel was.
-
This movie will be great just like the original. I thought everyone was looking forward to this and now you all turn on it for some reason. You'll jump on the bandwagon when you see it's a good movie.
-
Awww fuck Iron Man 2! Really that panel was just like a short clip and here are the suits! You see this one is different because that panel is painted red, where on the other ones its painted yellow! And it cost $5 million more to make.
-
If you didn't say it then I'm not talking about you am I! I'm talking about that other idiot who did. Oh but just to let you know. Even putting that turd in the same sentence as a Gilliam or Coen brothers movie is a berating offence!
-
I don't know if you were around for the 199 release of these, but it went out with a little wimper and we all laughed how rubbish it was after all the Duffy hype. As stated many times, the Overnight doc is a wonderful piece of film making to come out of all the stink.
-
meaning the BDS. Man, it's early. I should be in bed, not fighting with you lot!
-
The only person in the world who thinks Troy Duffy is a cool guy...is Troy Duffy, and possibly Troy Duffy's mom.
-
Great if you're drunk or stoned. Not so great in the cold light of day. And they have to be the worst "Oirish" accents ever.
-
I think after that documentary, I have sero interest in seeing this delayed dud.
-
I thought this was dead in the water, really enjoyed the first one
-
Nice trailer. I liked the original movie quite a lot, so I'll be seeing this one the first week it's out.
-

You ever notice that most talkbackers just shit on everything because evidently they're so ultracool & above it all, in that faggy Hot Topic kind of way.

by talkbacker with no name
In fact there are a lot of people (including me) that are coming out and making their dislike for the movie known who are normally champions of movies and are not normally 'haters'. I'd put a lot of money on everyone here, every single mother fucker taking an opportunity like duffy had and running with it. I guess that's the point really. The thing that pisses me off is the fact this guy was given it all on a plate and told everyone to shove it up their arse! I'm willing to wait and see if he has learnt from this mistake and made a great sequel, but I'll refuse to join you in the lovefest for the first movie because I honestly think it's awful.
-

Of tell us to suck it (i'm guessing you mean your dick) and then calling us faggy?

The first one was enjoyable, hopefully the second is as well. Why don't you fuckers get passed the fact that the director is a douche and move the fuck on. Yes, we all saw Overnight, who gives a shit. Oh no, George Lucas is a douche, I'm not going to watch Star Wars. Fuck you.
-
Dude, this movie is going to suck. The first one was a disgrace to cinema, and the second will only serve to further disgust me.I'm kidding, of course. The first one was a fucking great surprise and I hope the follow up is in the same league. I usually don't mind people talking shit about movies here, but the hate for this is an example of people spewing venom for the sake of it. Cunts.
-
People are bad-mouthing the original Boondock Saints. It is fucking shocking. When did liking original, semi-obscure vigilante movies become uncool? Fucking assholes!Honestly, I am okay with someone not liking the movie, but I'd like to know why. Poor acting, writing, or direction? I just don't see it. Bad story? Shit, the story is awesome. What is the problem with Boondock Saints?
-
and egomaniac shitting in his own nest.
Fuck you Duffy, if I wanted to support somebody's coke habit, I'd support my own. -
F$$k off.
The only reason some of you people think that everyone used to love this movie is because you were in junior high or high school when it came out and all of your dumbass friends who didn't know any better LOVED it.
Just awful, awful crap. If you digitally added Norman Reedus into Plan 9, he couldn't make a worse movie. And believe me, he has fuckin' tried... he's Norman Reedus! -
Reviews for "The Road" are up! It premiered in Venice yesterday. So far some are great, some not so great. UK's Independent and Guardian give it 4 out of 5 star reviews, whilst Variety slams it (but their critic gets ripped by a reader who completely disagrees!)
-
It's up, and looks like more of the same good stuff! http://www.rec2lapelicula.com/

http://www.ropeofsilicon.com/movie/rec-2/trailers/6923
-
Also, for those of you who see this film as some sort of "redemption" of Duffy in the hands of Hollywood, this is not a studio picture. And the only reasons he's making a sequel are: 1) his contract on the original film did not include home video/DVD, so he hasn't made a dime, and 2) he's a fatheaded tub of shit with a single idea.
-
The ultimate in "embarrassing movies college film geeks like and soon realize are horrible." It combines all sorts of sub-Tarantino/Scorsese cliches and adolescent fantasies, shoves them in a blender with about 20 lbs of human feces, and presses frappe. It's worse than Howling VII. Duffy should not be allowed to direct traffic, let alone celluloid.
-
After all that nonsense he doesn't even get to revel in it's eventual success. So much for his grand vision. I mean I guess how could he know. I mean it was the early 2000's, at that time a movie had never been shunned theatrically only to garner a massive cult following on home video.......oh wait.
-
You're right, it's just my opinion, but let further explain why your video is awful. Apart from it's deprived nature, it was totally uncreative. Apparently when given the assignment of making a video with kids, the first thing that comes to most peoples' minds is that have them killed, or to have a twist where it turns out they are doing the killing. Look how many of the videos fit those categories. However, I felt that yours was the most devoid of any humor or creativity apart from the of killing a baby, no less. . And yes, I'm aware that your son wasn't actually killed, as is the case in movies. So your logic is that anything can be portrayed in movies since it is all fake anyways? Do you draw the line anywhere? Would you have a problem depicting your son getting raped or sodomized? I mean, withou actually doing it. Because after all, like you said, how many 2 month olds have been on film...lucky him. As for Brad Pitt dying as a baby in film, there's a huge difference between a baby dying of natural causes and a baby being chainsawed to death with the intent of being funny. Your arguments were just as bad as your film...in my humble opinion.
-
Is what we do every time we see a film. Hollywood is filled with degenerate douchebags who use drugs, have sex with children, and take advantage of every single thing they can see, in every single way they can. In the grand scope of debauchery an irish drunk who owns a bar and plays in a band is no big deal.
-
how people every year bitch and moan because Hollywood is churning out more rehashed crap; remaking movie after movie after movie. Then Troy Duffy comes along, cokehead.. possibly, asshole, quite possibly. He created a movie that whether you like it or not has become a cult hit. Now all these infantile haters start pouring out of the woodwork. Grow up you whiny little cunts!
-
First off "suck it" is a reference to comedian Daniel Tosh, not my penis (My penis is the Hammer). Second, I said most talkbackers, not all. Third, I know most talkbackers aren't in the film industry (it's called sarcasm). Last but not least, exactly where in my post do I state my lovefest for the original? I was making a general statement about talkback criticism, not Boondock Saints criticism specifically.
-
after that retarded opening scene..pure wank..
-
anyone making that claim here, much less saying the first was any kind of worthy film is mullet headed maggot brained fucktard. It's an embarrassment.
-
I shave my head and am NOT a fucktard. I don't say its a "pretty decent flick", though. I say its an original and entertaining blend of humor and action with quoatable dialogue and excellent performances by both Willem Dafoe and Billy Connolly.
-
My credibility has been destroyed.
-
bald headed fucktard then..decent, entertaining..however you attempt to defend it.
..its indefensible dribble..the only stunning part was there could ever have been an bidding war for such a laughably goofy script...
-
Now that was one of the greatest "QT rip off's" of it's time .It still holds up with great preformances by Tom Jane, Arron Eckhart, and Mickey Rourke to name a few. As far as BoonDock Saints is concerned, i'll watch it out of shear curiousity. I've seen the original and then rented Overnight after I read Kevin Smith's ranting about it one day. I think the idea of the movie was a good one in a Punisher kind of way, the execution wasn't horrible for a first time director, it just kind of borrowed alot from different films. I have to admit, even though I don't hate it, I FUCKING HATE the pricks who have the tatto's and shit. It's just a bit much man.

tarantino is kind of a douche bag. a douche bag with some talent, granted, but still a douche bag. tarantino has a cult following of fans who love his shit regardless of whether its good or bad.
now, troy duffy, who is a douche bag with NO talent who rips off tarantino also apparently has a following of fans who love his shit, DESPITE the fact that it sucks.
so for all you troy duffy fans, my advise to you would be to jump into the tarantino camp. that way people won't realize what horrible taste in movies you have and you won't get dissed constantly for being the fan of a loser. -

According to Whitepages.com, there are 26 people with the last name Smecker living in the U.S.A. - mostly from Pennsylvania. I'm sure there are more. I've never met one of these folks, but at least Duffy didn't just make it up.
-
Sorry, I do think Boondock Saints is decent. And I don't have a mullet. Fairly certain my brain is made of maggots either. Nice image, though.
-
damn....I bet you wish these had edit buttons
-
Willem Dafoe and David Della Rocco were great in the first movie, lots of hilarious moments. I didn't care for those brothers at all, so I don't think I'm gonna like part two. Collins Jr.'s character does seem like fun though, I'll probably check it out sometime.
-
Bwahaha. Fuck.
-
It wouldn't surprise me if Duffy thought he made it up. The other names in the movie aren't too inspired either - Detective Duffy (just using his own name) for one. Rocco as another (I get using your friend in the movie....but giving his character the same name?).
-
It's about DAMN time... To all who don't give a shit about this flick, lick my taint lint.
-
I actually liked Boondock Saints. Duffy may be an egregious fella, but the Funny Man was funny, the scene with the Don was funny, and the cat scene was kind of funny. The dialogue was 'me too!' Tarantino-fare, and like most movies of that decade were as Scott Mosier put it: 'Hitmen Misplace A Body' 'Hitmen With A Heart of Gold' 'Anything Kind of Like Pulp Fiction'.I want to see Over Night now too, though. :)
-
I understand that a movie isn't well made by virtue of the fact that I enjoyed it. A movie isn't poorly made because you didn't, cunt. Now go get me a beer, fuck-ass.

-
But if you feel like you have to bag on me for it go ahead. Everyone needs some sort of facet to boost their self worth no matter how trite and childish.
-
Honestly, if you guys think Boondock Saints is an example of shitty writting, shitty directing and shitty acting, then I think some of you guys have no idea what actually makes a good film. Or you're just hating the guy himself and transferring that to the movie.The 're-creation of the crime scene' stuff in the movie was brilliant - a cool idea and executed quite well. Crappy action? are you kidding me? There was no shaky cam, the action scenes were clear and chereographed pretty well for the most part. You can't tell me that when the dad shows up for the first time with all those guns, that it wasn't a cool moment. Fuck outta here with some of these 'criticisms.' If you're an action fan, I just don't see how you can hate BS. You may not like it, and that's cool. But outright hate? fuck outta here.
-
Sep 05, 2009 3:10:33 PM CDT

by talkbacker with no name
and shitty acting. I also think The Departed, The Friends of Eddie Coyle, Mystic River, Gone Baby Gone and Mystery Street all tower above Boondock as a crime film set in Boston in everyway. Guess there goes your theory eh? Unless of course you don't think they are 'good films'. Hating on duffy is a nice bonus.

by jedirob
..and it is severely flawed. It does not really hold up to repeat viewings as a full functioning film. But I still think it works as a whole, as it does have enough good people, and entertaining moments.
-
People are bagging on the movie arn't they? Why are Boondock fans so defensive and touchy? Is this like your Reservoir Dogs or something?
'bagging'. To 'bag'. I like that! I'm going to start using it! -
Saying 'You know what? Attack of the Killer Tomatoes was a pile of crap'.TBWNN, if you ever put Boondock Saints in the same thought as Reservoir Dogs, I'm pulling your film fan card, and giving it to Danny Glover's Dickblood.I happen to like 'Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man'. But if someone says 'that movie's total shit, and the Matrix was better'. I say, 'No shit, but I still like it.' And lots of the stuff in Boondocks was good...PS to Duffy, don't blame the Weinsteins. Blame the douchebags who shot up Columbine.
-
It holds up even better than I thought (though it's pretty undeniable that it's a hatchet job... on a dude who deserves a hatchet between his eyes).
"Harvey Weistein wants to be me."
"a deep cesspool of creativity"
"I'm Hollywood's new hard-on."
"a logpile of creativity"
What a fucking prick. -
is fucking awesome. I love when Big John Stud slides the motorcyle at Daniel Baldwin and lights it up. One of the most fun movies of my youth. LOVE IT! Still holds up.
-
Boondocks IS NOT a crime film. LMAO at comparing it to The Departed and Mystic River. You guys have to be kidding me. Might as well take off points for it not being like Shawshank Redemption.
BS is a fun vigilante action movie with an interesting & slightly shallow premise. It's not a deep movie. I REPEAT, it is NOT a deep movie. But it is a fun, well-directed movie.
and HercsRadio... SirBitch, huh? CLEVER. lmao. Now you may shoot yourself because that's as intelligent as you'll get. -
Blimey I thought murder was a crime! You best tell Duffy because he seems to think it's a "crime thriller" as well as pretty much every single person who reviewed it. To like it or not is one thing, but to not even know what it is, well that means you have egg on your face, sir. Egg on your face. Point still stands. All of the above are all far better crime movies set in Boston. Want to try again?
-
I'm surprised you didn't see the sarcastic nature of the Reservoir Dogs comment. I fucking love RD! No need to threaten my fan credentials just yet, bud.
-
I dunno. I don't like that. I wouldn't be surpised if this chick is supposed to actually be Willam Dafoe's character post-sex change and plastic surgery. If that's the case, keep the weiner for a shock factor.
And are we to believe they stopped killing gangsters for 10 years? I would rather believe they kept killing random gangsters throughout the past 10 years. -
who cares what Duffy labels it? If you can't see the CLEAR difference between Boondock and other actual crime movies like Mystic, then you're an idiot. Because they're like night and day. Not for 1 second did I watch BS thinking: 'this is an accurate portrayal of crime in Boston.' To take points off for 'accurate protrayal' is RETARDED, because the whole vibe of the movie just isn't focused on that. It's a JohnWoo/Matrix influenced Tarantino pop gun movie with crime elements in it. That's it. Not hard to understand, but apparently it is for some of y'all.
-
just not a realistic one, and they don't have to be. How hard is this is to understand?
-
Sep 06, 2009 2:35:58 PM CDT
SirBiatchReturns, you are not getting the hang of this are you?
by talkbacker with no name
Not once did I even mention anything about "accurate portrayal of crime". I said it was a crime film. You said it wasn't, but have since agreed it now is. You were wrong and we can now move on.
-
haha that's the best review yet I've seen of BS.
-
To the guy above who said that this movie is the epitome of the movie you thought was cool and interesting in college but now realize kind of sucks, I gotta disagree. That movie is BLUE VELVET.
-
lol at bringing up his name like it matters. I don't give a shit what you thought Duffy thought when he was making the film. The fact that you continue to bring him up shows that you hate the movie because of him, which is just lame. Duffy is probably a super douche and a racist, but even racists can make good films. Think about that for a sec. "Clearly BS is the male version of Twilight" - right... because all the mob bosses are secretly vampires. LMAO. And the two retards in the audience clap uncontrollably and pat each other on the back
You guys are pathetic. The sad reality is that LOTS of people liked the first movie for good reason, and STILL like it a decade later. Feel free to hate - you're definitely in the minority. -
Haha, keep deluding yourself with that one, retard.
BS sucked when I finally got around to seeing it 5 years ago and I *just* saw Overnight today for the first time. When this sequel bombs, your little minority of wanking fanboys I'm sure will insist it's a great movie also. -
There are a mountain of people in this thread calling fans of a movie various insults (getting "bagged" on, glad you enjoy the term) just for liking it. So what I said isn't that far of a leap. I don't think it makes me defensive, just realistic.

Everybody hating Boondock Saints = Everybody hating Return Of T
by obsd
I saw this in the theater (Somerville theater for one week only, one of the very few theaters it was released in.) because it was rated NC-17 for violence. I thought it was big dumb fun and quite enjoyed it. Now, like ROTJ, a movie I thought that everybody at least likes is universally loathed. Is there any other movie that I like, but am supposed to hate? I really need a listof movies I'm supposed to hate in order to keep my movie-geek street cred, And yes, I saw overnight. Duffy comes off as the biggest douchenozzle in the world, but I, being a grownup didn't let that detract me from liking the movie.
-
Boondock Saints In theaters March 11th! One time only in all theaters! This is going to be awesome people!!!
