OK, I let it pass when they tried to tell me the first Matchbox Twenty album was good, but I'm thinking our friendship is strained by saying that BDS is good. This is clearly unacceptable because BDS is an insult to anyone with a brain...or whatever it was that Bill Walton said.

I liked that movie when I was in high school. Haven't watched it since.

I may be either blessed or cursed, but I'd be hard pressed to find a friend or aquaintance who had even seen 'Boondock Saints.'
Or, if they had seen it, it probably didn't make much of an impression.
That's a movie title that is never discussed when our conversations turn to movies.

It was everyone's favorite trendy movie when i was in college. Meh, it's entertaining in a corny, pulpy way. It excels when it doesnt take itself seriously, and fails when it does. Plus, they cuss a lot. and I like that.

What always bugged me about Boondock Saints was how many people thought it had some kind of profound message. It's one of the most juvenile movies I've ever seen.

Kind of like the action movie version of "Crash".
If you have to beat me over the head with your message, you're going to ruin the film.

I thought the message of the movie was "I am a fourth-rate Tarantino and this is a fifth-rate 'Resevoir Dogs.'"
