while i went to Endgame and enjoyed it, i'm holding off buying it till i can get the DVD, because i think that the second full length cut is what i want to watch. Seriously, i cried during one whole scene, and i think most people know which one it is. I'm a really big fan of Connor.... and i didnt think that it was really true to his character to do what he did in that movie. doesn't mean that all the movie was bad, in fact i enjoyed the majority of it, but, i just couldn't watch connor.... well.... die

Diamond9697 · 26th August 2001, 09:20 PM

yep....they really messed up Connors character in this movie...no way would he be like that....not in a billion years...I have this one on DVD already...but I only watched it once *shrugs*

Extemper1 · 26th August 2001, 09:56 PM

i'm sorry, but i think Methos would have stepped in there, he seems like the type of person who would have stopped Duncan from doing something that he would regret for the rest of his life. that might sound a little off the wall, but i think Duncan will regret it for a very long time, because connor was like a brother to him, his teacher. methos might seem like he is appathetic about thw hole thing..... but he does care about duncan and i think he cares about connor as well, so he wouldn't have let it happen.

Diamond9697 · 27th August 2001, 12:44 AM

I know....did he know about what was happening? I don't remember...

ok - you can discuss any part of endgame you want in this thread -- why? b/c it's the endgame thread - as the thread title says -- so anyone who's here should know they will get spoilers for the movie -- so - you can say -- dammit! why did Connor have to die! and no one will care -- they should already know!! (okay - i'm not really the moderator - but just thought i'd let ya know --- i'm so nice!) <shut up ana!>

okay - yes - this movie was a big screw up -- and it was good up until that point on the roof -- well - except the sanctuary thing which was so totally NOT Connor i could have shot the screen!

i'm a big one for characterization -- write the character correctly or i'll hate your story? know what i mean? unless you're writing AU or non-canon based stuff -- Endgame was supposed to be canon based -- and well - they screwed up -- HUGE!!

oh my god!! i just wrote a scene that did exactly that ----

i won't say specifics -- but i'm rewriting bits of Endgame (b/c it sucked) and Methos stops Connor and Duncan --

yes yes yes --i'll post it at MacSlow when i'm done -- whenever that is ---- don't worry -----

Connor forever!!!!!

have you read all of my stuff at MacSlow already??? sheesh -- guess i'll just have to dig around and get some more stuff finished -- do you have ANY idea how many WIPs i have lying around?????? more than i can count !!! argh!!!

Highlander II · 10th September 2001, 11:58 AM

Yeah - like i have to explain that one -- but anyway --

Connor dead = BAD! :dead:

so - I'm sure i've made this point before -but killing Connor to 'move the film along' was just stupid - it didn't move the film, in my opinion, nothing of any significance happened from the time Connor locked Duncan in that 'you can't lose' position (that thing w/ the sword behind his head)

1st - I don't think Connor would ever ask anyone to take his head. why? it's not in his character - but i think the writers fell asleep the day characterization was taught in writing class. and Panzer must have been dead the day they taught 'paying attention to the *ACTUAL* wants/needs of the fans' -- but he was definitely present for 'how to be an arrogant ass 101' --

2nd - Duncan wouldn't kill Connor anyway -- even if he was desperate - it's not in HIS character either -- DUH and this is Panzer's pet character! what was he thinking? Oh, right - he WASN'T!!!

ack! if i keep going i'm gonna be really mad -- so, i think i'll stop now!

Diamond9697 · 10th September 2001, 03:11 PM

Yeah...asking someone to take his head is way off for Connor...I know he was all upset because he said that everyone close to him ends up dead and all that...but that is still a stretch in my opinion. And to ask Duncan to do it was really bad...after all Dunkie has been through with Richie (which didn't really happen) I would think that he would ask someone else.
