The non-Collector's Edition DVD credits list the brothers as "Conner MacManus" and "Murphy MacManus". The DVD box reads "McManus". The FA revision uses "McManus", but only mentions the surname once.
If there is no discussion, I will update all instances of the names to match the DVD credits. Flatscan ( talk) 05:00, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
Upon reading this article I can't help but notice that it contains a lot of cquotes, especially for a FA. I was under the impression that cquotes should be used judiciously, per WP:MOS. What do you think? decltype 19:45, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
Anyone else catch that? IMDB lists "Connor," a lot of other places list "Conner." I don't have my DVD case in front of me, but if I get a chance I'll try and dig it out for both case/credit verification. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.228.88.3 ( talk) 03:45, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
It's Connor MacManus, as seen on the OFFICIAL website http://www.boondocksaints.com/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.171.172.123 ( talk) 04:00, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

The Article says they are fluent in german. Being german and having watched the movie countless times, I can assure you that no point in the movie implies their ability to speak fluent german. When they are interrogated by Agent Smecker, they speak dutch, not german. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.186.160.55 ( talk) 05:31, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
I haven't seen the film, so I won't change the article, but Il Duce actually means "The Leader" (the Italian for "The Duke" is Il Duca).
If the actual dialog of the film (mistakenly) equates Il Duce with "The Duke", this should be said in the article. 93.92.153.12 ( talk) 10:20, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
In the third para of Plot, " Rocco...is sent in as backup" is not accurate. He was sent in on a separate mission, to be killed himself. Neither "Papa Joe" nor Rocco knew the brothers would be there. Sammy D III ( talk) 18:21, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

There was some reference in here about the faith of these folks. Catholic? At the beginning of the film, they say the "Lord's Prayer" or "Our Father" in a church. Catholics end this prayer with "... and deliver us from evil. Amen." Protestants end this with "... and deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom the power and the glory, hollowed be thy name. Amen." It's kind of a big bone of contention between Catholics and Protestants. In the film, they delivered the Protestant version in the church. Was this a goof, or was the church Protestant and not Catholic?
