Boondock Saints and Video Games

Posted by Daniela On March - 8 - 2012 ADD COMMENTS

It has a certain ring to it, doesn’t it? Considering how popular the movies are with audiences of all ages, it’s not surprising that a game has been developed and it was a long time coming. Following a successful comic book series, a video game was the next logical step. If you want to learn more about it, all you have to do is attend the SXSW(South by South West festival) in Austin, Texas on March 11th.  The game was developed by Critical Mass Interactive, whose president (Matt Scibilia) will be there alongside The Saints, to offer  fans who are present all the needed information about the game and to discuss its development. In case you’re already worrying about how much money you’ll have to spend to get in, let me put your mind at ease: it’s a FREE event.  Just pop by the Palmer Events Centre on the set date: March 11 and you’ll  get the chance to join Norman Reedus, Sean Patrick Flanery and David Della Rocco in a panel discussion about the movies, their current projects,  you’ll  get a first look at the teaser trailer reveal of the new Boondock Saints video game and you’ll even get to ask those [...]

The Boondock Saints – Graphic Novel Launch!

Posted by Daniela On November - 16 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

 As you might know, or really should know, some 11 years ago, Troy Duffy brought to our screens the cult film – The Boondock Saints, a compelling tale of two brothers who take justice in their own hands and deliver us from evil, all in the name of God. With a wonderful cast – Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus  as the two vigilante brothers, Willem Dafoe, David Della Rocco and Billy Conn0lly, to name a few, the movie was expected to be a hit. But due to executive meddling and a great deal of controversy due to its violence it was denied the chance to shine. Thankfully, the fans spread the word and now the movie is a cult favourite. If you don’t trust me, ask all those fans sharing tattoos as those owned by the brothers in the film. With 11 years spent in producing hell and various courts of law, a lot of time passed until the sequel – All Saints Day – but the fans didn’t forget and, after getting a brand new movie, they are asking for more. Until the third one gets made, Troy Duffy and the gang are throwing us a bone, a delicious [...]

Banners for everybody!

Posted by Daniela On October - 12 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

Well, since we really like you, we’ve decided to show us a sweet new thingy you could use for your facebook page. You know how on your page you get to see a mismatch of photos you posted in your albums? Mostly unrelated and sometimes showing off precisely that haircut you want to forget you ever took? Yeah? Me too. *cue sales pitch*In that case – check out the new Facebook Banner Generator! It’s all free and available to everyone, plus, my friend who deals with the generator is opened for suggestions. Feel free to check out his page right here . Most of the images there were suggested by my Supernatural, Battlestar Galactica, The Borgias obsessed mind. But since he takes requests, you can leave a comment on this post and ask for something different. This is what I am using at the moment for my Facebook banner, hold the drool girls! I couldn’t really pass on the opportunity of staring into Norman Reedus’s eyes each time I turn on my Facebook page, now could I? To still maintain the illusion that I am a professional I will hold on the bragging and move onto another sample of another [...]

Happy Easter!

Posted by Daniela On April - 24 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

We hope you enjoyed the celebrations that took place over the weekend and you didn’t munch on too much chocolate. Side effects include – extreme giddiness, silliness and cravings for more and more of that delicious and sometimes bunny shaped confection. As you can see, your cravings have some odd effects on the poor bunnies…Consume at your own risk and please consider the amount of pain you inflict on that poor unsuspecting chocolate!   Once again – have a really, really HAPPY EASTER! And hopefully the Easter bunny will drop by with a nice little gift for all of you. I am pretty sure he doesn’t abide by the whole select list Santa has, restricting presents only for the nice and ignoring the naughty, so everyone should be safe. Thank you for being by our side through thick and thin and we hope you enjoy our little site, lots of love, the GA team – Daniela and Joseph.  

Hiatus or “Hellatus”

Posted by Daniela On March - 29 - 2011 1 COMMENT

Some TV series (mostly American) have this thing that is incomprehensible to me called hiatus. It brings unnatural levels of frustration to all fans of a TV show, particularly if the show is new and hasn’t really had the change to settle in among its fellow ratings challengers. Let’s take The Event for example. I once wrote an article naming it the best TV series of 2010. And I genuinely thought that about it. I was all excited about character development, storylines and pretty much everything else. Then the hiatus came and quite frankly I haven’t watched an episode since. I am sure they won’t miss me, but I am also sure I am not the only one to have given up on the show. I’ll wait for the show to be complete and maybe, just maybe I’ll watch it then. Not the first time it happened. Supernatural has ridiculous hiatuses too. It starts in September, goes on vacation in December, comes back for four or five episodes and then we are slammed with yet another hiatus. Of course the producers of the show know they can always count on one of the most dedicated fanbases around to always return [...]
