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,

yup.. I replied in the relevant thread

Highlander II · 13th June 2001, 11:42 AM

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 · 13th June 2001, 07:33 PM

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

Highlander II · 14th June 2001, 12:33 PM

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!

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 · 21st June 2001, 01:58 PM

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 · 21st June 2001, 03:49 PM

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 -

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 · 28th June 2001, 12:57 PM

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.
