I assume I am in the minority in not getting the appeal of the first one?

loved the movie when I first watched it a few years back....watched it recently and it just doesnt have that appeal to me anymore sadly. A 594 year wait for a
sequel doesnt help either

Came in here to say the same thing as those two up there ^.
Heard all of these people blowing their load over the movie then I actually saw it and I was meh. Don't give a shit about a sequel at all. |

the 1st one was ok, but i have a feeling if i watched it now i would wonder why i ever thought so.
i would love to see this movie flop because the writer/director is such a gigantic douchebag. the story about how he got the first one made is hilarious. The guy had no experience yet: 1) Got harvey weinstein to buy the script, buy him the bar he worked at, and offered to sign his band. 2) Dropped by weinstein after it's clear he's an ass...doesn't think pitt, reaves, or bon jovi are good enough to be in his movie. 3) Shops movie at cannes, picked up by a small outfit for a small budget. 4) Totally bombs in the theatre. 5) Becomes a cult classic and sells millions of DVDs 6) Duffy failed to write in DVD royalties and is left with nothing. haha.

I actually talked to Bob Marley (the actor, the dumb detective that always has to buy donuts in the first one) about this a few years ago. He said everything
was pretty much ready to go but that Duffy had been holding everything back for the last few years because he always wanted more money. I guess he either gave
in or finally got the money he wanted.

the 1st one was ok, but i have a feeling if i watched it now i would wonder why i ever thought so. yeah, i caught an e true hollywood story episode on the making of the first film and couldn't believe all the shit that went on. it nearly inspired me to believe i could make it in hollywood if i got lucky with a script. all that behind the scenes crap kinda soured me on the flick itself but i still think its got re-watchability. the most natural comparison i make is to the departed and boondock saints doesn't even compare IMO |

i want to the see the 2nd one, but i dont know if i'll see it in theaters. if a bunch of my friends want to see it as well, then i'll be more inclined
to make the trip to the theater.

Still don't understand why this movie is so praised. They released a making of a few years back I think it was called Overnight. Donny is right though,
Troy Duffy is a huge douchebag.

i absolutely loved the first one. on my list of top movies. don't think i'll see the sequel though. i was excited when i first heard about it but
they've been dragging their feet for so long that i've lost all interest.
