The original Highlander is so fricking good. It's amazing to me that it somehow got turned into a huge franchise that completely missed the point and dropped the ball immediately by trying to explain everything. It's the Space Jockey all over again.

princes of the universe has to be the most anticlimactic songs ever writter
the opening is so strong with a bad ass guitar riff and then... nothing. it just falls apart.
your taste has to be one of the worst ever
I can't stand that whining homosexual's voice.
Thank god he's dead.
here's your (you)
Lemme guess. Zoomerino?
Nah that definitely goes to Welcome to the Black Parade. Builds up amazingly then just switches to gay pop punk.
Holy shit you're right. Id never heard this before but that transition is godawful. From ascendant rock god anthem to fricking 90s high school comedy nu-punk bullshit in seconds flat.
Some of the old hair band guys wouldve destroyed that shit.
im not a MCR fan but having not heard this since middle school i gotta admit the song does start off pretty good
>Builds up amazingly then just switches to gay pop punk
this is literally mcr and co&ca in a nutshell
the downside of being influenced by bands like rush, glam metal was a mistake
>Remove the weak part.
there is no weak part, even the weakest/worst queen song shits hard on the competition
mind you princes isn't even the best queen song in the film (or the worst for that matter)
cavill was signed on for some time to play mcleod in the reboot/remake but luckily the film is never happening since it's unnecessary
>and then...
i cut it and listen to it in a loop with the visual intro of the film +Connery+ Kurgan, it is great. Remove the weak part.
It doesn't have any weak parts, zoomer.
Absolutely agree. This has bothered me for 30 years since I saw the first film. Thank you anon, I though I was alone.

Why do Americans get the west Highlands and Ireland confused?
white people tend to mix all the subhuman races
>hurrrr geez what could the irish and scottish possibly have in common?!?!
this coming from people who consider themselves the intellectual superiors in the conversation
its a general mishmash of celtic/gaelic/brittons thats just mostly scottish stuff since they welsh have nothing really and irish dont have a whole lot thats unique to them
I didn't think it aged well and last time I watched I thought it could be good content for a remake.
Its a fantastic story
>remake
die in a fire, subhuman zoomer Black person
the film is a 9/10 until the cheesy epilogue
>i have omniscient power and now can have kids and do good
>he hasn't seen the original cut
you never really get a sense of them being the actual group of last highlanders because besides the main two guys, they all die like mook. it also never seems like they ever get any actual power from anyone after killing them since their fighting skills never seem to improve in hundreds of years and with lots of magic power
>you never really get a sense of them being the actual group of last highlanders
You actually do, and quite well.
>it also never seems like they ever get any actual power from anyone after killing them since their fighting skills never seem to improve in hundreds of years
Was it ever stated that you steal someone's fighting skills with the qickening?
just watched it the other day and thought the bad guy looked like dark henry cavill
Just curious, is this the only time you've seen that actor?
Just curious, is this really the first time you're heard this song?
yes to first question
Check out his filmography, he's pretty good. Shawshank, Buster Scruggs, Starship Troopers. Lots of smaller roles in decent movies and he is consistently good in all of them. The Kurgan is probably his best role, admittedly.
okay i looked up clancy brown and i mustve saw him in shawshank aswell as his VA work in cartoons and video games. never saw the wild west stuff
ONE YEAR OF LOVE

The show was good, stop being a gay
Why did most of the Macleods have affinities for katanas?
>clearly a med
>MacLeod
Adrian Paul actually is part Italian, but he was born in London.
>but he was born in London
So he should be black.
He had Welsh admixture
Oi, look at tis Irish bug.
>story is about men banished from their communities for being 'different'
>MacLeod eventually meets an older man, who takes him under his wing
>eventually they all move to New York City
>they secretly 'sword fight' in parking lots, abandoned warehouses, back alleys
>not on holy ground, though
>soundtrack by Queen
>Russell Mulcahy lives in West Hollywood, California, with his partner, David Guzman
Lowland Scottish vs. Highland Scottish physiognomy. Ironically enough the lowanders are tall, dark and handsome (think Sean Connery, Tom Selleck, Craig Ferguson) borderline meds, while the highlanders are stocky inbred gingers (think Jimmy Somerville, count dankula etc.)
Lowlander is a terrible name for a movie though
off yourself homosexual
kek, you posted this exact thread yesterday so I had to dig up my post in it just for you.
>Man, everyone's gay once in a while. This is Hollywood!

The funny thing is it would be simple as frick to reboot this franchise.
Get a flashy director good with style visuals (special effects not really required)
Write a basic barebones john wick style script that doesnt suck
Have bad ass sword fights.
Id buy a ticket
>reboot
die zoomer
I think they are bringing it back with henry cavill
That's exactly what they're doing
>codirector of john wick directing action film reboot
