What the hell are you talking about?

If Troy Duffy gets to make another film I will commit sucide.
WATCH OVERNIGHT

This movie kicks butt. I might pick this up. I wonder if the deleted scenes are any diffrent than the ones that were on the original release?

definitely...but he still doesn't make up for how bad it is

Boondock Saints was, at best, a derivative B movie by a guy who had exactly one movie in him and that was it. He will never get another movie made. See "Overnight." Troy Duffy is an idiot. An arrogant drunken fool who thought he was the greatest thing that ever hit Hollywood. When Hollywood hit back, he just evaporated. He's back in the sticks where he belongs. That sequel has been "announced" now since 1998. It ain't happenin'.

Boondock Saints and OVERNIGHT The "director's cut" won't be any better than the original. This guy's time has passed him by. All that Tarantino copycat stuff was big in '97, but today it doesn't work. Tarantino moves on, but his copycats do not. And Duffy has some real mental problems. I do encourage everyone here to rent the documentary about the film called "Overnight." It was a movie they made during the making of BS. Duffy, sure he would be immortalized as the next big Hollywood genius, hired the guys, friends of his, to make the film. They just let the cameras roll on some of the most insane stuff you've ever seen. Then when Duffy tried to screw the guys and not pay them, they put this together and sold it. It's one of the best "making of" docs ever made. Whether you liked the film or not, you really must see this documentary. It's jaw-dropping. A cautionary tale. How to blow your one big chance in Hollywood.

Funny that you should say that.  It is not listed anywhere as even being in active development.  IMSB lists so many movies that never get made, and if it was REMOVED, then it is pretty obviously not even on anyone's radar.

Thanks for coming out though...

How come ever since the site changed to "active" instead of "answers" there have been so many more rude people?

I really enjoyed this film and will most likely pick up this new edition of it. I like the otehr artwork better though. And even if you guys do hate this film, you at least have to admit you have thrown your arms in the air and shouted "THERE WAS A FIRE FIGHT!!!!"

Finally a worthy double dip, thankyou god. Hehe.

war Of The Worlds is wayy better then this

I loved this movie and I will be buying the DVD for sure.

Overnight is a POS 'documentary' that seemed to be very bias. I didn't buy what they were selling.

The unrated cut has been available in other countries for awhile now.  I downloaded it to see the difference and honestly, unless they've added a bunch, there's was only about seven extra seconds.

1.  When the boys fall through air-duct and are caught up in the "stupid f--king rope", when they shoot everyone in the room, it's a pretty bloody scene.  Not huge but definately more gore than the original.

2.  When "Rocko" walks into the diner and talks to the two guys who "knew about the..." and are shot, you see Funny Man actually shoot them in the heads instead instead of hearing the sound and seeing the aftermath.

I guess when it was released, they had to cut these two scenes down the garner an "R" rating.  Then due to the "trench-coat" mafia or whatever they were called at Columbine and with the shootings, it was decided to be released on Video and on theatrical cut.  It was too risky.

However the unrated version isn't really that big of a deal if that's all they've really added back in.  I guess it'll be good for "completists" but just not worth it.  If you own the $8 version, you're totally fine.

And yes, because of Troy's questionable attitude around Hollywood, I've heard through the rumor mill that the Weinstein's and Troy don't get along and that being they own the rights to this film, they won't budge on allowing the sequel "Boondock 2: All Saint's Day" to be filmed.  At one point, they had the cast and script all lined up but I doubt we'll ever see this one.  Which is too bad because despite all the negative comments I've read, I really enjoyed this movie a lot and have heard nothing but good things from all of my friends.  Definately rent it though if you haven't seen it yet...
