    Worst. Film. Ever. The friggin series was bad enough.     I assume you're saying that only because you've successfully managed to wipe such gems as Highlander II and Battlefield Earth from your memory. I apologize for having undone that. But it was for your own good. Perspective is important... even if painful.

    There was no sequel to Highlander, because, as we all know, there can be only one!!!

    My GF just walked into the room and asked what I was reading. after explaining the sabotage and intoxication scandal, she replied with "can you blame them for flying drunk? hell, they can't even be sure the equipment will even work. Hell, I'd want to be drunk too" superior logic prevails..
