Red Band Trailer for BOONDOCK SAINTS II: ALL SAINTS DAY

by     Posted 3 years, 291 days ago

I was hoping I could get one of the site’s other writers to do this story.  Someone who didn’t loathe “The Boondock Saints” as much as I do, but no such luck.  So now I have to hate this trailer apart.  I don’t want to.  I’m always open to the possibility that I may like a movie and that I misjudged the film.

And then one of the characters says “Let’s do some gratuitous violence,” and that pretty much sums up why I think the first movie is awful and why I think the sequel will be as bad if not worse.  Hit the jump to watch the trailer and then if you think these movies are great, say so in the comments and I’ll tell you why you’re wrong.  “The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day” somehow gets a theatrical release on October 30th.

Credit to IGN for posting the trailer (or discredit depending on how you feel about the movie).

    Boondock Saints was terrible and this will be too. Brainless violence for its own sake is hardly revolutionary.

    Boondock Saints was really bad and I’ve never understood how it developed a following. It keeps coming up, even though it has been 10 years ago and neither of the leads ever went anywhere with their careers. I will say I do like Reedus (can’t believe he is 40) – I always thought he more was going to happen for him after Blade II.

    So, why did the two of you (Fitz and cant_stop_yawning)– cant_stop_yawning, your fucking lame-ass handle says it all, man; “look at me! I’m so much better than anything I come across ’cause it bores the fuck out of me!”– why did the two of you come to this post if the 1st movie was so bad??? Just to show how smart and cool you are ’cause you supposedly don’t like the movie? Cynicism for it’s own sake hardly makes a revolutionary comment. Who says because a movie’s not revolutionary it’s not good? Also, just because two leads don’t “go anywhere” with their career’s has absolutely nothing to do with how good a movie is. Moot would be the perfect word to describe both of your comments.

    …The above being said… I’m not really feeling the trailer and hoping it’s nowhere near indicative of the movie.

    THANK YOU! I reviewed the original movie a couple of months ago. I didn’t like it at all and fanboys of the movie were trying to come after me for not liking it. It was an awful movie.

    Boondock Saints is a cult classic period. I’m not sure how i feel about this one but Troy Duffy did a great job with the first one.

    RT, I was merely empathizing with the author of the article. Recycling my words as a come back, nice.

    Boondock was a Tarantino rip-off that lucked out and made a lot of money probably from fraternity douchebags. That’s why its not revolutionary.

    I personally liked the movie. I recognize that movie for what it is, a popcorn flick that tries to be edgy, but at the end of the day I like the movie. I would like to know your views Matt on why I am wrong for liking it (because opinions can be wrong apparently).

    Also, Fitz, just curious but does my enjoyment of this movie make me a fraternity member douchebag? I mean I wear a polo shirt occasionally but i’ve never been associated with a frat. Also, I’ve never been used to clean a vagina but then maybe I haven’t been paying attention.

    RT – what are you on about exactly? Did someone hurt your feelings? Why don’t you tone it down a bit? You’re making my head hurt. If I wanted all this nerdy bitching and name calling, I’d head over to aint it cool. We tend to keep things a little more civilize here. My handle, by the way, was the result of around 2 minutes thought after being up for two days writing code for a bond pricing application for work; don’t infer too much from user names. I’ve had the same one on this site for months, by the way. Further – why are you crabbing about the users? The author of the article hates BS as well – with good reason. It was a really crap movie. Give your comment a little more thought before you post next time – maybe try going outside on occasion, take a walk, meet a girl. Life is too short to waste time being a douche on a movie chat board. All clear? Good.

    The first movie was great, it’s the best movie for St. Patty’s day. RT is right though the trailer looks a little iffy, but hell I’m the optimistic type. And by the way I’m no Frat boy, you’d have better luck with sorority!

    So people who like the first one are fraternity douchebags now? And what’s up with going after people who don’t like what you like? jeez if you like the film that’s cool. If you don’t kudos to you but for gods sake could you at least respect each others opinions? I’m not saying you have to agree with each other but but stop bitching at each other based on whether or not you liked the film.

    As far as this one goes I’ll check it out.
