Not too upset about this, since the first one was a classic, and especially since the original brothers will be back.

Yes, but do not forget that what carried the first movie was never the brothers per se, it was the supporting actors (Rocco, Dafoe) and the cheese. Rocco's character is dead, Dafoe will not come back for the sequel, and all we'll be left with is a cheesy generic action flick with a gimmick that was overdone in the first movie.

Marquis is right. There were three lead characters in the first. The brothers and Dafoe. Dafoe really did carry that whole film, though. I mean, would it have been as good without the line "AND THERE WAS A FIRE FIGHT!!"?

Meh. I might see this just because I'm curious as to how it will turn out, but it's sad that Dafoe's not in it.

Ah, Troy Duffy...I remember when he showed up at our theater late one Thursday night, carrying the reels for Boondock Saints himself...

(true story)

Saw this on IFC a few months ago. A total hatchet job, but not really that surprising.

Hmmm...didn't know Dafoe wasn't returning. That certainly fucks everything up.
