Part 1 of this 2 part special is out now! Have a listen below and tell us your thoughts of how the Heroes vs Villains Tournament is going? Listen to the episode and see where your bracket compares to ours. Also, do not go further below until you finished listening. It has the winners up to the Sweet 16. You have been warned.
DO NOT GO BEYOND THIS POINT IF YOU DON’T WANT TO BE SPOILED!!!
THE BOOZE WE HAD:
Our next special has been decided. We are going to do a Heroes vs Villains episode! There will be 32 Heroes and 32 Villains. Just like the NCAA tournament style bracket. There won’t be a win-loss record here. They will be placed randomly in the brackets, and we just go from there.
THE BRACKETS ARE COMPLETE! Man that was a pain in the ass to complete. It took a few days to get everything together and coordinate. But we emerged boozed up and proud of our Heroes vs Villains tournament.
There were just so many to choose from on both sides. We know there a lot missing. If we could have put them all on then we would be debating this topic for the rest of the year. Possibly longer. Who knows.
Now, for the process. We finalized the Heroes side. Put the names into a randomizer and boom! It spit out their respective order. The same process was done for the Villains. Simple enough right? Yeah, we thought so too.
The best part of using the randomizer was the matchups they had. Holy shit are they good. Let’s just say there are going to be a lot of upsets in the first rounds. Like a lot, a lot. Or not. You be the judge. That’s right. You be the judge on your own bracket. Take it, fill it out and send it to us. Tell us where we messed up or went right. The power is in your hands.
Without further delay. Here we go!

The Boondock Saints: A Wild and Violent Cult Classic
The Boondock Saints is a movie that is often cited as one of the best cult classics of all time. Released in 1999, it tells the story of two Irish brothers who become vigilantes, seeking to rid the world of criminals and evil. With its gritty violence, dark humor, and memorable characters, this movie has gained a loyal following over the years. Let’s dive into what makes The Boondock Saints so special.
The Plot: Vigilantes on a Mission
The movie follows the MacManus brothers, played by Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus. After a traumatic event, they become convinced that they have a divine mission to rid their city of evil. With the help of their friend, played by David Della Rocco, they embark on a killing spree, targeting criminals and corrupt cops. Meanwhile, FBI agent Paul Smecker, played by Willem Dafoe, is hot on their trail, trying to piece together the clues and catch the vigilantes.
The Style: Gritty and Stylish
One of the things that sets The Boondock Saints apart from other action movies is its unique visual style. The movie has a gritty and raw feel, with lots of handheld camera work and intense action scenes. At the same time, it’s also highly stylized, with striking imagery and creative camera angles. Director Troy Duffy has a knack for crafting visually stunning scenes that stick in your memory long after the movie is over.
The Characters: Memorable and Quotable
Another reason why The Boondock Saints has become such a beloved movie is its cast of memorable characters. The MacManus brothers are the heart of the movie, with their intense loyalty to each other and their unwavering determination to complete their mission. Willem Dafoe’s performance as Agent Smecker is also a standout, bringing a touch of humor and complexity to the role. And of course, there’s David Della Rocco’s Rocco, whose foul-mouthed antics and tragic fate have made him a fan favorite.
If you’re a fan of action movies with a wild streak, The Boondock Saints is a must-see. Just be warned: this movie is not for the faint of heart. With its over-the-top violence and irreverent humor, it’s a wild ride from start to finish. But for those who can handle it, The Boondock Saints is a cult classic that will leave you quoting lines and cheering for the MacManus brothers.
