Plot hole: There is a scene when Terrence tricks Big Fate into touching his "lucky pipe". Terrence then plants it at the murder scene in order to rightfully implicate Big Fate in the murders. Terrence then goes to the police station and tells Beniot about his strange feeling that the perpetrator smoked crack while committing the murders, and suggests Beniot comb the scene again. Terrence's fingerprints were all over the pipe as well. He couldn't wipe his fingerprints off without wiping Big Fate's off as well. Since it is a requirement that all police officers have their prints on file and since Terrence isn't the officer to locate the "evidence", how can he explain his fingerprints being all over the pipe? After all that has happened, I would think he would have implicated himself.
Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (2009)
Directed by: Werner Herzog
Starring: Nicolas Cage, Val Kilmer, Eva Mendes, Xzibit, Russell M. Haeuser
Trivia: Though sometimes billed as a sequel or remake to the movie "Bad Lieutenant," the films are not connected in any way beyond featuring a corrupt law-enforcement officer as the lead character. Director Werner Herzog tried to get the title changed because he didn't like the idea of it being compared to the original film since it was completely unrelated... and also because he hadn't even seen the original film.
Trivia: Abel Ferrara, director of the film "Bad Lieutenant," was incredibly angry with the filmmakers, as he felt like they were stealing his concept and assumed it was a straight-up remake. He even went as far as to publicly say he hoped everyone involved in this film would be killed in an explosion. He later met with "Port of Call: New Orleans" director Werner Herzog, and they almost immediately made peace, with Herzog saying they spent most of the meeting laughing about the situation.
Terence McDonagh: You don't have a lucky crack pipe?
Terence McDonagh: You think fish have dreams?
Terence McDonagh: I'll kill all of you. To the break of dawn. To the break of dawn, baby.
