unclevlad Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 I have a problem here... If it's bad, then...I hope it doesn't happen, of course. If it's good then...wait...how can we say "there can be only one!!!" The other interesting question is, when in the Highlander timeline are they going to place this? You DO NOT want to repeat the placement of Highlander I because...if it works, well, that should be the end of it. The game's over. It'd be great if this does come out, if it's good, and if Cavill gets better known for whichever role he takes than for Superman. Flip that bird at DC!

tkdguy Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 This project has been in production hell for about a decade now. If it's actually going to happen, hopefully it will be good. I plan to watch it in any case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not crazy about picking a fight with someone so much senior here, but you’re flat out wrong. Highlander was and is a perfectly fine movie. One that I happened to watch only a few days ago so it can’t be said that I’m remembering it thru rose colored glasses. The casting of a Frenchman to play a Scotsman and a Scotsman to play an Egyptian pretending to be Spanish was pretty shaky accent-wise, but both actors did a memorable job in their roles. The script and concept were solid and nobody could have anything bad to say about that soundtrack. Sorry I may have gone a little overboard over a one sentence diss of a movie but this one has some good memories attached to it. There are a lot of bad movies I love and freely admit are awful, but this isn’t one of them. You should see the fight I put up when somebody slams Buckaroo Banzai. 🤗 Cygnia, Armory and slikmar 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher R Taylor Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 Its a bit long and not great but it is pretty entertaining and had an interesting concept. The three main actors did a fine job with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The series on the other hand was pretty weak but comparable to what was on TV during that era. Especially for syndicated shows. I do know people who met Adrian Paul at conventions and had very nice things to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said friend was a real Highlander the Series fan. He was expecting the worst but said that Adrian Paul was a nice guy. He has a picture of Mr Paul on the microphone during the seminar or whatever you call it when the actor meets the fans and answers questions. Yes this was the age before selfies.

tkdguy Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 I for one enjoyed the TV series. I think Adrian Paul did a great job as Duncan MacLeod. He still teaches workshops on cinematic swordplay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
