Oh gawd. There was a cheesy montage in the middle of this movie.*

I'm watching most of it through fast forward.

Reggie and Anna are now sharing a "fun flask" under the moonlight.

And thus far, Duncan has not gone shirtless.

And Giovanni wins the award for the Worst Highlander Hair ever. Ever. But he can do the Hair Salon circuit to plug his styling mousse. "Cardinal Giovanni's Styling Mousse: for an Immortal Hold. There can be only one."

Oh. Highlander just turned into Mad Max.

And the Guardian of the Source? I think his costume was inspired by any number of leather outfits seen at the Folsom Street Fair.

And there are these big nerf balls in the heavens aligning. The hell?

Oh, Duncan finally takes off his coat.

Oh dear. It got worse.

*laughs*

That was hilariously bad.

That movie sucked so bad that small itemes in our living room were pulled against the tv screen and didn't fall off until commercial breaks.

I think this pretty much drives a stake thru the heart of the Highlander franchise.

Yeah. It was really poorly done.

What was your favorite bad part?

Batman!Duncan?
Albino!Bad Guy?
ReallyBadSkin!Immortal?
CosmicAlignment of WTF?!?
The fact that the prize is getting laid?

I don't think I can just pick one bad part.

Well, the Albino bad guy was pretty funny. They tried to make him scary, but he looked like a Gay Male Entertainer who was attacked viciously by a Notary Public.

The synopsis towards the end was completely unnecessary. Or maybe they realized that most of us would fast forward to the end and wanted to make sure we got the point.

Duncan was pure of heart. Yeah, uh huh. After decapitating seven seasons of Immortals, pure is not the word I'd use.

The cosmic alignment, visible by the immortal eye was classic.

Sadly, during Joe Dawson's dramatic death, when he tells Duncan that he was his best friend, I laughed. I wonder if the actor who played Joe wanted to laugh, too.

Cardinal Giovanni's hair was amazingly distracting.

I can understand the prize being getting laid. That's a prize for most of us.

We were spared the fully clothed lust-fest out in the forest because Reggie got a make-over from Queer Eye for the Source Guy. Thank goodness. I was getting concerned that picking tree bark from Anna's hindquarters was going to be a plot point.

Oh yes, and Batman Duncan was only eclipsed by the snowy Superman-esque Source.

I kept wondering if G-man would freak if anyone would touch his hair--for the five minutes of torture I endured.


Once I realized that they mutilated Queen songs I cried and turned of my TV.

I'm off to cuddle the DVD I have of the original Highlander movie.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

BTW, you realize that this...this...this farce makes Highlander II and III look good?

Christopher Lambert is laughing his ass off right now thanking the deities that it's not his problem anymore.

Well, how the hell do you explain "Highlander: Endgame"? ;-) If the script didn't scare him away...

But yeah, this was clearly a little reunion for the Highlander TV folks.
