Old thread died and this movie is going to be out this year. They have assembled almost all of the same cast and directors from the previous movie. I, for one, can't wait!!

Dont know how credible this one is because it distinctly lists a different name for the title of the movie but: http://www.aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=12836

info on the new characters

Quote :

"So what’s up with Boondock Saints 2? Well let me tell you. The working title is “Boondock Saints II: The Second Coming” and will be the further adventures (so to speak) of the MacManus Brothers. “After Sean, Norm and Billy read it, we spoke several times. They are very excited to Rock-n-Roll on this and it was nice to swap “Boondock Stories” with them.” Alright, so the big three are back. I had to know. What about Dafoe? After all the Spider-man hoopla and Willem being deluged with material, would he have the chance or will to return? “I spoke with him three or four times the week after “Spider Man” had it’s record breaking opening. He was frazzled from work and only a few days from opening a play in London. There were scheduling conflicts, other offers and it couldn’t be worked out. I cried about it for a while but soon I realized what I had to do. I had to go back in, take him out and make the story even better. Hard work but I did it. Willem and I will catch each other on something else down the line.” Now I know many of you BDS fans are reacting the same way I first reacted when I heard that. “What? Fuck. Shit. No.” But let it sink in for a second. Let’s think about this. A few moments after I heard that Dafoe wouldn’t be returning I began to realize that he didn’t NEED to return. Of all the characters in Boondock Saints, he was the one that had achieved a fully realized character arc. His story was done, anything else would simply be after-thought. The Saints, well they still have more left to them, questions about what was next for them and how they would react in more complex situations. Paul Smecker didn’t have that kind of a future. So who would step in? Who was going to bring new life to the Saints? “There are two new roles that I am very excited about. Romeo (29yrs) is a Hispanic American who has an instant bond with the brothers. He has all the makings of a new Saint. I like Clifton Collins Jr. for this (Franky Flowers in Traffic, Last Castle, Tigerland, Replacement Killers, and starred opposite Samuel L. Jackson in “187”). He’s been a buddy of mine for a long time and is an outstanding talent. I also believe he’s got all the right charm to portray a wild ass like Romeo. The second is Eunice Bloom (30yrs) a FBI agent with a bi-polar disorder that feeds into her crime solving ability. I like a young actress named Marley Shelton for this. There are times when you just get a feeling on someone. I got the feeling with her.” "

Once again not sure how credible this is:

Plot Description (I really like this idea)

Quote :

"The story starts with a bit more in depth on the court house scene which ended the last film. As soon as they blow Yakavetta away, it is revealed that the MacManus father and sons have been hiding out deep in the glens and valleys of Ireland for three years. Connor and Murphy are quite content with this "natural" life and their pasts begin to seem faded and worn. But soon they recieve a "sign" and are called back into action as a pastor is murdered in a Boston church and the crime scene is staged to make it look like the work of the Saints"

10/17/2005 2:29:04 PM

i am kinda disappointed that Smecker won't be there

You've got to be kidding me

10/17/2005 2:51:31 PM

?

10/17/2005 2:59:59 PM

looks like im watching number 1 today

10/17/2005 3:19:39 PM

have you seen it?

10/17/2005 3:25:25 PM

i just hope it's good. the first one could've been left well enough alone and i would've been sad not to get more of the story, but it wouldn't have mattered because the first one pretty much worked as a self contained story that didn't extend in either direction.

10/17/2005 3:31:59 PM

yes but here is why im not worried


"TROY DUFFY"

10/17/2005 3:32:56 PM

it is going to suck

this is why you dont fuck with awesome movies and add sequels

this is the worst idea ever

10/17/2005 3:38:35 PM

Boondock Saints sucked

10/17/2005 3:41:34 PM

both of you get out

10/17/2005 3:46:07 PM

I cannot wait.

I just hope it is as good as the first one...

[Edited on October 18, 2005 at 9:54 AM. Reason : +]

10/18/2005 9:53:12 AM

i think its major wishful thinking to believe that it will be anywhere close to as good as the first one

it'll prolly still be good though

10/18/2005 11:00:32 AM

agreed

10/18/2005 11:24:29 AM

Damn I haven't watch the first one in years. Toilet off of roof = awesome.

10/18/2005 12:01:01 PM

definitely

10/18/2005 12:01:21 PM

"Cuddle?, What a Fag!"

Great movie, I hope this is for real.

10/18/2005 12:34:53 PM

i think its major wishful thinking cause ive known about it for over a year imdb has had it as in production for that long...i dont know if it will ever actaully get made or come out.

10/18/2005 12:54:46 PM

yeah well that is why i posted multiple links because IMDB doesn't update their non-blockbuster movie info until they have too

10/18/2005 1:30:17 PM

Umm...never going to happen? Is that how you should describe it?

I would. Go check out this documentary called "Overnight." It is pretty fascinating to watch Troy Duffy completely lose his mind and all of his friends and any chance for him ever to work in the picture business ever again.

IMDB doesn't do updates. The people making the film are the ones who update everything, via an imdbpro subscription.

DSMears, what the hell are you talking about

10/18/2005 2:24:43 PM

Just fill the drink you fucking fairy.

10/18/2005 2:30:37 PM

haha

10/18/2005 3:03:41 PM

Check out "Overnight." It is a documentary, made by friends of Troy Duffy (the guy responsible for Boondock Saints), all about the events leading up to and surrounding his deal to make Boondock Saints. Basically, he self-destructs. Going from golden boy to pile of turd.

It makes you realize that any talk of a sequel is just that, talk. The ravings of someone I'd consider self-deluded to an almost insane point.

10/18/2005 3:45:37 PM

so you are talking about a documentary from 1998?

10/18/2005 5:10:25 PM

i thought boondock saints 2 was supposed to be called "All Saint's Day"

10/18/2005 6:42:23 PM

yeah im not sure what the title is going to be


several sources have been credited with two different names

[Edited on October 18, 2005 at 6:47 PM. Reason : sdf]

10/18/2005 6:47:33 PM

Nope. I am talking about a documentary from 2003.

10/18/2005 6:50:00 PM

Also, know that one of the "sources" - the one from aintitcool - was originally published in July of 2002, over three years ago.

10/18/2005 6:55:11 PM

geez that sucks

what happens in the documentary (seeing as how im not going to watch)

10/18/2005 6:56:10 PM

why...

can't they just let a good movie be a good movie and not ruin it by making sequels, BAH

10/18/2005 7:02:02 PM

SHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSH!

[Edited on October 18, 2005 at 7:08 PM. Reason : df]

10/18/2005 7:07:37 PM

usually sequals do ruin the original but im hopeful about this one...i cant wait

10/18/2005 8:03:03 PM

I also don't think the second could be as good as the first, but hopefully it will still be a good movie.

If it sucks, I will still enjoy the first and try to pretend the second never happened.

10/18/2005 8:09:26 PM

yay for more hot irish boys
