thewayneI was going through my laptop's bookmarks tonight looking for a specific link, which I did not find, and came across the Adrian Paul web site. It had been quite a while since I'd been there, so I decided to pull it up.
I was quite surprised to see yet another Highlander movie being made. I'm curious if it, too, will follow the grand and glorious tradition of most of the previous films and run out of money before production is complete and be taken over by the insurerers.

The first movie was fun.
The second movie sucked, but there were specific reasons for it. The main problem was that they ran out of money and the production was taken over by the insurers, who slapped together a movie for release so they could make some money back. According to the DVD release, the story actually made sense, it was just completed poorly.
The third movie, IMO, sucked, because it was just a remake of the first. There were a few things that were cool, but it still wasn't much more of a remake of #1.
The fourth movie. Hmmm. I enjoyed it in that it had a considerably more complex story than we'd seen in a long time. It's been a while since I saw it, so I think I'm going to have to pass on providing an opinion for it. I think overall that I liked it.
I was a huge fan of the TV show, followed it until the bitter end. I'll definitely see this flic, which, BTW, has both Dawson and Methos returning.
