Both things can be true ....

Great Cut Scenes .... Sword fights .... exploding rain .... folding ninja blades ... even a great trench coat ...

Perfect shoes. The dude can eat whatever he wants.

Okay ... I'm in. When do we get the Krull Blade!!!!!

But, the director has to humanize the Highlander. And, the dude can barely speak.

Why is he here? What is he doing? What a great existence. Why isn't he banging chicks back in the Highlands?

And, you got about $9,000 to do it.

Why is Highlander hanging with granny Heather? Oh wait.

Geese, water, farm, laughing, who dares to love forever?

Heather coming over the hill with the sheep ... It's like a thousand scenes in one instant.

No trick. Just a lifetime in a moment.



"Where are we?"


.... The sun is shing. It's not cold. You've got your sheepskins on. (A sad smile) ... and the boots I made for you .... Goodbye my bonny Heather."


One can't help but pity the poor Highlander. Everything the mortal man seeks and nothing. I'll pass on that immortality shit. Fuck that.

But, we learn about the Highlander too. Loyalty. Strength. He could have hunted his enemies but he choose to live. Until he could live no more. Plus apparently, he was a cobbler.

The most dangerous man on the planet who could sate his appetites on the best the world had to offer lives a quite life taking only what he needs. He could be King and chose to be farmer.

Stack up everything in Star Wars and more and you can burn it all to ashes against this 4 minutes of film. I am your father ... whatever dude. Yea, Yea, he had the pokey-man mask. And Ewoks. They shit on that franchise to point of being repulsive to even see a scene.

And, even the Kurgen gets to pay for that one little misdeed.

I don't have high expectations for the new movie. But, I'll be glad to be surprised.


Yours,
