negative edits removed[edit]

I removed a bunch of negative information in the article, as it is entirely without sources at this point. As mentioned above, all information should be sourced but negative/possibly libelous information can only be included with sources. Please locate them and include in the article before re-including any of these edits, many of which I have indeed heard of anecdotally. -- nae'blis 05:34, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Response: Try to copy/paste exactly what you're removing if it's, to you, libelous. Unless it's outright and obvious vandalism we shouldn't completely remove the work, just leave it here until citation is granted.

The DVD gross for The Boondock Saints is listed at 30,000,000 and it is claimed that Duffy saw none of this. Neither claim has a source? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.205.10.9 (talk) 07:36, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

further anecdotal negative edits removed[edit]

Deleted the following: "Duffy's failure in Hollywood is generally seen as the result of his massive ego, which served to do little other than alienate friends, family and professional acquaintances. He continued to think of himself as an up-and-comer even through his difficulties, and often verbally attacked anyone who voiced other opinions. He has indicated that he believes a conspiracy was created by Harvey Weinstein with the intent of destroying his career." User:muz.hunter'User_talk:muz.hunter 21:16, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If I remember correctly, a lot of this stuff was in a documentary about the making of The Boondock Saints. It focused a great deal of Duffy's difficult personality and the difficulties that it caused him in his career. If I cared more deeply about either the man or this article, I would rewatch the doc and find some sources (reviews perhaps? A synopsis? A transcript?) that can be cited here. As I do not in fact care enough, I advise anyone who does to look into it immediately. The doc is called 'Overnight,' and I believe that it is already briefly mentioned in this article. A more in-depth description of his depiction in it than 'arrogant and prone to explosive outbursts' could not possibly be construed as libelous as it would merely describe his depiction in a highly notable account of his career, and I bleieve that it would more or less relate a great deal of the so-called 'libelous' info that keeps getting deleted. Good luck and godspeed!24.146.204.47 (talk) 02:45, 10 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
