I agree the Highlander series was RIPE for awesome sequels. It didn't have to end at the Kurgen.
I remember being a young kid sitting in the cinema with my brother and seeing the Highlander 2 trailer and looking at each other and going **** YEAH!
But when we saw it, my god. Whyyyyyyyyy???????????
When we finally saw it we were gobsmacked. The 80s version of smh.
Highlander needs a reboot NOW!
At least a decent videogame. MMO, multiplayer, single player I don't care just give me one.
.............if only I had money.
I just thought Highlander 2 had some fun sequences that were a lot more explosive, the first is more of a journey but the second had the goods in terms of action. Michael Ironside is always cool as a baddie and John McGinley is always good for a laugh as the sleazy corporate scumbag
Spoiler:
with the most painful death in movie history, having his balls crushed then thrown off the building! Arrgh.
Best bit though was the beginning with them goth-immortals with wings especially at 6.29 where the wino asks for a light (it seems to be in french but that's what the guy says)

What I want to know is why does he always bag the ladies just for being immortal? How can we mere mortals compete with that?

He's the Lambert dude! He gets laid in every movie if it isn't family rated. And even then he tends to get sleezy at one point.
It's the laugh. It's sleeze personified, yet classy. French bastard. Language of love dammit.
He probobly got laid more than Van Damme in his movies.
There was a movie I watched called Gideon where he played a simple garderner kind of like Forest Gump who lived in a retirement village. And there was a scene where he persuaded some guy he was screwing the babe of the movie. Even playing Forest Gump he managed to persuade everyone he was the pimp of the town.
I think the only movie he didn't get laid in was Mortal Kombat. And we all know he had his eye on Sonja. Johnny Cage didn't have shit on Raiden.

Damn...Lambert is one slick devil , maybe it is the french accent/style. But still in the first he stabs himself, tells Brenda he's immortal then - wahey!Instant sex. In the second cuts a guys head off, becomes young, wahey!Madsen's all over him after that. It's strange alright. Plus he had Heather too, who was the best - knew a girl at Uni who looked like Heather and I was smitten a lot of the time.
Well Van Damme, he does it a lot too, especially that soft-core scene in Double Impact and others in Time-Cop and Nowhere to Run.

He walks out of the explosion with the LambertForce. Squinting everywhere. And she walks up wet as a gushing tap and Highlander says. "I'm Immortal, I cannot die" She shags him as fast as she can.
You couldn't bottle that crap. And if you could, it would cost you a million dollars$$.

highlander from space huh? That story line didnt make any sense because in the first movie, he meets his teacher as if for the first time? Or am I wrong?
The two bad guys that were sent too earth didnt fit with the characters and the whole feel of the movie.
The whole movie felt like a carboard cutout with bad actions sequences, and highlander didnt really do anything in the movie other then talk like an old man?
The ending for me was questionable, I was left thinking wtf? I couldnt really understand why he was immortal? So he's immortal because if he kills people from his home planet and the more he kills the more he's immortal but if he doesnt kill them he's not immortal?? wtf?
I haven't seen that many bad movies to begin with, but what I recall so far include:
Larry Crowne - I can't believe someone like Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts actually agreed to be on this film...
Piranha 3DD - an absolute mess: horrible acting, ridiculous plot and overall an incredibly predictable piece of work.
