Highlander: The Source - Why Adrian Paul? Why?
Wow, I had recorded this the other day, because hey, it’s a Highlander movie with Adrian Paul, and finally got around to watching it.
Signs you shouldn’t do yet another highlander movie
- The last highlander movie ended (yet again) with Adrian Paul as the official "there can be only one"
- The last highlander movie (and series) killed off the main characters featured in "The Source" movie.
- A character says, "it is the quickening" to remind the audience that’s what it is called when you take another immortal’s power
- Another character quotes lyrics from the Highlander series, "we are the rulers of the universe." (i don’t even want to know why)
- The words "The Source" are mentioned more times than "Lance Armstrong" in the Tour de France.
There were others, but these were the most painful for me to watch.

Yep I remember that I read they where making another Highlander movie. I remember thinking this can't work unless you have a top crew and top writers. In the source they had neither, just look at the special effects, my nephew could have done those wierd color filters just as good. To much cheap forrest scenes, and a new prize at the end of the movie, like everybody wants to have a child yeah right.Anonymous

I think it was always the ultimate prize for the "their can be only one" to have a kid. Maybe not in the first movie, but in the series (iirc) and in what i thought was the last-second-to-last highlander move. but i agree with you on all the other points, especially the weird orange filter in paris.
