PSA: Highlander is on TV tonight

great movie and awesome soundtrack!

I preferred Highlander II

But there can be only ONE!!!

I was nearly in it, paid as extra, hairy kilted bloke running down hill, but never made it on screen.
Still awaiting the directors cut with extra hairy kilted people running down hills

Fab, thanks. Was up at Eilean Donan a couple of weeks ago, ace place

It’s a shame they had to knock down the ruins of his wee hoose at the top of Glencoe to make way for Hogwarts.

I once stood on the Cioch

Did you wipe your feet afterwards?

NOOOOOOOO!!!! There should only be one

From nbts link

YOU TAKE THAT BACK RIGHT NOW. BOTH OF YOU. The acting in Highlander is second to none, the accents are a deliberate and clever comment on globalisation and assumptions of nationality that… oh bollocks, I can’t do it.

The accents are silly. The special effects are crap, the swordfights are pitiful and it’s more 80s than Cyndi Lauper rollerskating with a pair of deely-boppers, but I chuffin’ love this film. There was a while there at college when it was the only video my player would accept. There are flashes of total brilliance, like the camera panning up from the wrecked car park, through the concrete, and emerging in Medieval Scotland. Clancy Brown. The swords.

I didn’t realise it means nipple or breast

Connery’s Spanish accent is 8)

Connery’s Spanish accent is

Thought he was Egyptian?

As a piece of theatrical entertainment its one of the best IMHO.
Sure its a bit naff, but thats part of its charm.
The sequels however……..

Correct

The soundtrack is only rivalled in the movie-soundtrack greatness stakes by Flash and Tron: Legacy

Right, I’m off to listen to some Queen followed by Daft Punk…

Awesome soundtrack.

It’s a shame they had to knock down the ruins of his wee hoose at the top of Glencoe to make way for Hogwarts.

I had the pleasure of using Hagrid’s hut as firewood when I lived in Glencoe. It was made of plywood.

Worst film I’ve ever seen! Only time I’ve ever walked out of the cinema.

always loved the film – climbing mates of mine used to talk of hordes of plywood swords being found round the Quirang and below the Cioch..

colleague who hated it donated me the video, friend for life!

When and what channel?

There is no Highlander 2.

For some reason this film passed me by completely. I only watched it about six months ago having heard great things about it for many many years. I really enjoyed it but the bit where Connery died made me laugh. Where exactly was Lambert when this happened?! Did he just go for a little walk?! Good stuff though

Was my favourite film for many years…
Yes it’s 80s… That is half the charm now.
Highlander 2 was just shockingly rubbish (IMO).
Number 3 not too much better (IMO), but at least it tried to carry on where 1 left off…
The Quickening, where they link it to the TV series… Hmmm…

None as good as the first… Some great camera work as has been said…

Was my favourite film for many years…

+1. Tremendous film. I’m banned from watching it as I can’t but help recite it whilst watching.

Anyway – channel and time?

it’s one of those films where how you remember it is far better than how it actually is. for this reason, I refuse to watch it.

Itv4 10pm

Anyway – channel and time?

Yes, still none the wiser. This isn’t much of a PSA 😉

edit…..a few seconds premature….story of my life.

QFT, Bro

They just did the car park/castle cut.

Starring TJ?

Can you walk? I’ll bloody well walk out of here.

Btw, I was not being serious. Just in case any of you thought I had taken leave of my senses.

The Edinburgh Defence. How appropriate.

PMSL 😆

Is it a comedy? I’ve never seen it before. 😕

who want’s to live forever 🙁
awesome film though 😀

Is it a comedy?

More a political skit on the independence question…. 😉
