Line 3:
 
==== Connor MacManus ====
{{quote| ''You ready for this shit, my dear brother?''}}
 
The somewhat taller, more outgoing MacManus twin.
Line 17:
 
==== Murphy MacManus ====
{{quote| ''What's this '''they''' shit? This isn't a movie.''}}
 
The introverted, pragmatic, [[Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette|dark-haired and pale-skinned twin]].
Line 32:
 
==== Il Duce, aka {{spoiler|1=Noah MacManus}} ====
{{quote| ''You must watch, dear. It'll all be over soon.''}}
 
* [[All in The Manual]]: The tie-in comic book expands on the backstory seen in the second movie.
Line 54:
 
==== Special Agent Paul Smecker ====
{{quote| ''There was a '''FIREFIGHT!'''''}}
 
* [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]]
Line 64:
* [[Large Ham]]: Probably the biggest ham of the first movie, especially during ''that'' scene.
* [[N-Word Privileges]]: Averted, and played for humor ''at the same time''. He repeatedly calls other gay men homophobic slurs, and is unfailingly given dirty looks. At the very least, he doesn't seem to mind when it's directed at himself, either.
* [[StraightInvisible Gayto Gaydar]]: He appears to play up the [[Camp]] at times to poke fun at himself.
* [[The Obi-Wan]]: Implied to be this for Eunice.
* [[Paper-Thin Disguise]]: Willem Dafoe makes as convincing a woman as [[Looney Tunes|Bugs Bunny]] does. And like Bugs, he has extreme good fortune to "seduce" the one guy on earth [[The Guards Must Be Crazy|thick enough]] to be fooled by his getup.
* [[Wholesome Crossdresser]]: He does this {{spoiler|to infiltrate the [[Big Bad]]'s mansion, and gets a little too into character}}. It inadvertently ends up saving his life, since {{spoiler|Il Duce mistakes him for a woman from behind and simply knocks him out}}.
* [[You! Get Me Coffee!]]: Whenever Detective Greenly would say something stupid or mouth off, he would be dispatched to fetch coffee and bagels.
 
==== Special Agent Eunice Bloom ====
{{quote| ''I am so fucking smart, I make smart people feel like they are retarded.''}}
 
* [[Defrosting the Ice Queen]]: She comes off pretty cold most of the time, but hugs Il Duce with tears in her eyes as she asks them to kill The Roman.
Line 80:
* [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute]]: For Smecker.
* [[With Due Respect]]: Lampshaded.
{{quote| '''Eunice''': "With all due respect... man, I hate it when people say that because it is inevitably followed by a disrespectful remark. Here let me give you an example: With all due respect, detective, this matter falls under whatever jurisdiction I fuckin' say it does."}}
 
==== Detectives Dolly, Duffy, and Greenly ====
Line 87:
* [[Distracted by the Sexy]]: Greenly is even more retarded than usual around Special Agent Bloom.
* [[It Has Been an Honor]]: {{spoiler|Greenly's}} last words to the Saints.
* [[Overly Long Name|Overly Long Last Name]]: If you're wondering why a South Boston detective has the [[Sarcasm Mode|imposing]] name of Dolly, it's because his actual last name is Dollapoppaskalious. This is lampshaded in the first movie when Smecker manages to pronounce it.
{{quote| '''Dolly''': Holy shit. You're the first one that's ever [[The Unpronounceable|got that.]]}}
* [[Those Two Guys|Those Three Guys]]
* [[Sacrificial Lion]]: {{spoiler|Greenly}}
 
==== Doc ====
* [[Cool Old Guy]]: He's completely okay with letting the Saints, a pair of wanted murderers, stay at his place for the second movie. Even in the first one, he's egging them on as they trash his bar beating up Russian thugs.
* [[Verbal Tic]]: '''FUCK! ASS!''' Justified in that he has Tourette's.
* [[Hollywood TourettesTourette's]]: Averted. While Doc does display coprolalia (foul language), he also has the stuttering and motor tics most [[Real Life]] Tourette's sufferers have.
** It crosses horribly with [[Hey, It's That Guy!]] and shock when you realize that that bartender was also Doc, from '''[[Fraggle Rock]].'''
 
Line 146:
==== Concezio Yakavetta ====
 
* [[Zero-Percent0% Approval Rating]]: Not even his underbosses care much for him.
* [[Bad Boss]]: He breaks the jaw of one of his subordinates just because he corrected his pronunciation of a word.
* [[Dawson Casting]]: A rather bizarre example in that Judd Nelson is actually a year and a half older than Carlo Rota, who played Papa Joe.
Line 154:
