For the record, I love (and own) Highlander.
Cineaste!
Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Everyone I know who likes Highlander are big stoners.

Two.
In fact, I own 3, count them, Three, Highlander movies and several seasons of the tv series.
Don't hate me.

Unpossible, as there was only ONE movie.
Firmly living in denial of anything related to a so-called "quickening".

Exactly.
After all, there can be only one.

ION, finally saw TROPIC THUNDER tonight, and OMG! There were parts of that movie that were so funny I hurt myself laughing (starting before the opening credits).
I think the bit that got me most was Ben Stiller playing with Steve Coogan's head. So wrong. Just so wrong. Yet hilarious.
RDJ getting really, truly nominated (deservedly so) for that is almost as funny as the movie itself, but, freakazoid space-clammer that he is, I really think Tom Cruise deserved it more. The ONLY reason I would have recognized him, if I hadn't known he was in it going in, was the voice.

Oh, I feel ya, but the fact that there can be only one...and yet there are MORE, simply speaks to the awesomeness that is that universe. You have to look really hard, past the dreadfulness, but the awesomeness? It's in there.
I'm just hardcore like that.
I love the Prophesy movie(s) too...and Dracula 2000, so take all that for what it's worth.

Didn't it have a spinoff with the woman with the short blonde hair?
