I think the writers of the series should consider buying a dictionary and look up the word, “continuity”.

Look, I hate to disagree with you, but I did watch this movie, and I think it was the biggest craptacular mess I have ever seen. I LOVE the original Highlander series, and this seemed nothing like it to me. Adrian Paul had only a few lines in the whole movie and just seemed depressed throughout. I have a feeling that he was contracted to do another movie and was probably upset to be acting in such a lame-o movie with stupid dialogue and a very ill-conceived plot. There were new characters in this movie with no real backstory or eventual explanation of their special powers.
There was a death that should have had me sobbing, but it was so anti-climatic and poorly directed, that I just sat there feeling nothing. And, at the end of the movie, they do a two-minute recap of the WHOLE movie, as if you haven’t just watched these very scenes already! My hubby and I are Highlander lovers who were both very disappointed. I’ll just stick with the original series, and pretend this mess of a movie never happened.

I’m disappointed that I won’t have a chance to see this until it’s out on DVD (unless Space picks it up for Canadian viewers) but I’m happy to hear it’s not complete tripe!

Yeah, i watched it too and was pretty disappointed. I havent really liked any of the movies, but i loved the series. What pissed me off more than anything else though was them replacing the Queen version of Princes Of The Universe with the lame knock-off.

Hirogen, I apologize for triggering those tragic, emotionally scaring memories..

I remember some movies that I’ve just wanted to throw myself off the curb after watching!

I hope you can forgive me.

Never really liked Duncan, am definitely more of a Connor fan. Which is why I could have killed someone after coming out of that god awful movie that featured the both of them. Oh, lets make the original awesome guy a pussy little bastard and have Duncan off him? WTF? Am I the only one that thought that was one of the most stupid things anyone has ever done? Yeah, I probably am.
