What if it was one guy with 6 guns...?
This is a great movie - but half the world hasn't heard of it. Heck, I bought my copy for $10 - that's regular price! It must not be selling well if retailers are marketing it as a discount DVD. or maybe I don't know what I'm talking about. I need to go watch the movie again now... |

I finally got to see this movie 2 days ago, and it is badass. I was a little disappointed in equilibrium, another movie that is really hyped on this board, but there was no let down from this movie, other than it ended too soon. I mean, the movie had Ron Jeremy in it for Christ sakes! how freakin cool is that! Willam Dafoe is freaking hilarious, although I really didnt need to see him in drag. Needless to say, my copy of the dvd is on its way as we speak. The sequel is in post production already, so it might make it out before next year. However, the original was never realeased in the theatres here, so I'm probably screwed on the second one too. Anyone know if the original NC-17 version is available anywhere?

I;ve been a fan since my now GF introduced me to it 3+ years ago... I wanted it so bad on DVD that I bought it off ebay for $40 (which wasn't unheard of back then since they werent selling it in the states-although you could maybe find a couple tapes)... So I have that version (which I bought twice) and the new one with the commentary (still waiting for when they will hopefully release the NC-17 version) for 10$ at target (doh!). ANYWAY, IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT, BUY IT... DONT RENT IT... BUY IT... it is that good. And I can't WAIT for the sequel.

I think its one of the most under rated movies ever. I never heard of it, but always saw it at Best Buy for $10. Heard some good reviews online, went and picked it up. LOVED IT. The scene with Rocco and his g/f and her friend was hilarious

Tips For Starting A Thread In Tilted Entertainment
This is the place where we discuss movies, TV, books, and the all the arts except music which has a forum of its own.

hehe whoops, musta missed that thread. but a movie like boondock saints needs at least 2 or three different threads
ok and heres a question i had about the movie: the porno theater scene, WHO are the men in the right/left booths? It seems that conor knows who they are, but the movie never really shows who they are. are we just to assume they are just known bad guys? Last edited by emopwr; 07-07-2003 at 09:33 AM.. |

The movie doesn't ever explain who they are, so I'm assuming that since Connor "knows everybody" they're just some other scumbags that need to be taken out. I just got the DVD and haven't watched it yet, maybe it'll have some commentary or something that sheds more light on it.

I worked in a video store and the screener copy arrived with Dogma. Aftrer watching Dogma I threw Boondock Saints in for the hell of it...... I was blown away!!! I recomended it to everyone and I only had 1 person come back to say she didn't like it. The way the director told the story( end, theory, and event) was like a slap in the face after viewing the seemingly endless follow-the-formula movies out there. I bought it asap and loan it out under penalty of death, but only to the very deserving.

The director tried to emulate Tarantino with moderate success. The acting, on the other hand, was terrible i.e., Rocco and Pappa Joe. Anytime Pappa Joe was in a scene I had to wonder if he paid someone to be in the movie. I wanted to like this flick but I've seen better acting in porno. A sequel is not necessary.

No one realizes this, but the Boondock Saints DVD is edited to hell. I downloaded it using my select P2P program, and after seeing it multiple times, I decided I wanted to buy the DVD. Well, I bought it, and it's edited. Yep, censored. The gun scenes (the particularly gory ones) are all shorter, with the blood pouring out of people scenes entirely gone. It's pathetic.
I'd rather the Boondock producer make an un-edited DVD before a sequel to this amazing movie. I want a new DVD with more features (even though the DVD I bought had funny as hell extras) and above all NO CENSORSHIP. I can't believe production companies are allowed to do crap like that. Some movies have gory fight scenes simply to entertain, but a movie like Boondock Saints makes the gunfight scenes graceful in an artistic way. -Lasereth

So I was scrolling through my satellite menu and what do I see?
A listing for Boondock Saints at 1:00 A.M. Central Standard Time. on the USA network. So if you see this message, run, don't walk, to your t.v., if you're a true fan.
