Aw, why?

I usually like the originals best so that's why I voted for Highlander out of the list. I did like Highlander 3, too. You know how I feel about Highlander 2.

Just heard from one of my daughters that Endgame is now out for rent. I'll have to check it out.

Cheers,

 

[markpud]

yup.. I replied in the relevant thread

 

[Highlander II]

though you might think otherwise from my tag -- my fave of them all is Highlander - the original movie - director's cut --

really - i've liked them all -- but i only LOVE the 1st one --

i would have liked the 4th one, but they goofed it so bad, i couldn't get past all the 'mistakes' they made ----



Highlander II

 

[markpud]

yeah there is no doubt the original is the best, and would be virtuallly impossible to top...

 

[Highlander II]

yes - it has been very hard for them to top the 1st movie --

i'm wondering if they're gonna try the star trek like thing and just make more and more sequels --

however - star trek had some kind of weird system - only the even numbered movies were good -- the rest were pretty bad - (esp Generations - ugh) ---

here's hopin' for more (and better than H4) Highlander movies!



H2

 

[markpud]

i would assume any new films would be with Duncan, i guess Conner (Lambert) is done with Highlander now unless he does a Ramirez and turns up anyway

The point of Endgame would seem to be to transition people over to Duncan as "The" Highlander...

 

[Highlander II]

yeah - but it was a bad transition --

Connor could at least have died at the hands of some great, mean, old immie -- then Duncan could have sought revenge - oh wait - that's what they did in the 1st movie - no wonder it was so good - it made more freakin' sense ---- but still - it would have been better than what they did --- and i didn't understand that "Sanctuary" thing - that was dumb - not enough explanation, yet again ----

oh - and they didn't include Methos and Joe enough -- the writers need some major help -- they should use the ppl who wrote for the show -- i think John Phillip Taylor would do a good job - he was a major influence on season 1 --

<sigh> maybe i'll see Endgame one day as well

 

[Highlander II]

well - you could have someone write up synopses of all the eps you haven't seen, then you would feel like you've seen them, then go watch endgame? --- just a thought -

H2

no - it's not the same - but it would be something --

ummmm -- haven't been to the official site lately - don't know if they have anything there or not --

 

[markpud]

they do have brief synopsis' of each ep there, and some interesting behind-the-scenes type stuff about the eps ( i just looked at Prophesy from S5) but the synopsis are pretty slim, and the site is a real pain to navigate as well, it was much better last time i went there, but they've redisigned it with some horrid menu system :dead:

Hey, can I join in the conversation?

I enjoyed the first Highlander film. Thought it excellent. Plus Sean and Christopher in the same film - well, what can a girl say?(hehe).

The follow ups to the first film seem a let down but thats just my opinion.

[markpud]

thats the common opinion i think, the first film stands in a class by itself... i would guess you've seen the same cut of HII that i have annette, theres another version that cuts out the stuff about them being aliens, which sounds better....

have you watched the series?

 

[Annette]

Hi Mark, yes I watched the series. Probably 3/4 seasons.

Duncan McCloud was quite a dish. I did enjoy it. Didn't think much of Highlander: The Raven.


annette

 

[Highlander II]

the series was pretty good -- excellent after they brought in Methos --- love Methos!!

HUGE Connor MacLeod fan!! love Connor -- Chris Lambert is awesome!!

I thought the first movie was the most well written. It made a heck of a lot more sense than #2 and while I liked both 3 and 4, I still think the original rules.

 

[markpud]

well not surprisingly another vote for the original!! Bit of a land-slide victory over the other films so far in this poll!!
