Will my boyfriend (a catholic, but obviously not a great one) go to hell because I talked him into saying the hail mary and the lords prayer while making whoopie?

I think I'm in love with you.

Well, this is a question that makes me squirm in my seat a little bit. A couple of things going on here, if you'll entertain the thought for a moment.
Obviously, the whole extramarital (or premarital) sex thing isn't good. It is a sin, and a serious one. The Church echoes Scripture pretty clearly on this one.
I'm guessing you said the Lord's Prayer and the Hail Mary out of either guilt or thanksgiving. I'm glad to know you're thinking of the Lord and the Blessed Virgin, and I find it a little ironic that you thought of them during this activity. Perhaps that's your conscience or even the Spirit telling you that making woopie isn't what you should be doing.
See, guilt doesn't make you stop sinning always - sometimes it just keeps you from enjoying it, which is of course its intent.
If you're really worried about Hell, maybe take stock of your lives, both independently and in your relationship with your boyfriend, and see where this is going. Christ's Precious Blood won our salvation, but you should still avoid temptation. If the two of you are talking marriage, that's nice, but in the mean time you really shouldn't be trying to tempt each other. I'm sure you both find each other very attractive in many different ways, so this will take both of you.
You might not be comfortable talking with your parish's youth minister or priest. Can I recommend a book for you two, then?

Ecclesiastes 10:13
The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness: and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.

He won't, if he repent from the bottom of his heart and turn for his sinful ways.
By the way, "making whopie": a funny name to call it.

Maybe. To be safe, Next time have your boyfriend cover his head with aluminum foil to prevent Jesus from reading his mind.

You both need to repent and turn from your wicked ways. Ask the Lord to forgive you and forgive each other and clean up your life.

We are all sinners. You might go to hell for making him do that but not him.
Leave it to God to Judge.

He has sinned. He should confess. He won't go to Hell for that.

We can't answer this unless we know the details. Preferably with illustrations.
I take it he already ascended into heaven?

We that judge him would probably have a greater chance of hell, understand?

I saw a movie where a chick rambled scripture the whole time she was getting it... weird.
