I have a real problem with this.

This is unprofessional rambling nonsesnse, this guy is just throwing out
every spoiler he can come up with and trying to dresss them up as complaints
and gripes against the script.

This muppet tries hard to come across as a true Highlander fan, The
mis-spelling of the main characters name in the first line of this tome was
a dead give away. The whole thing is just bloody incoherent and annoying. It
just seems infantile, like a twelve year old wrote it. I must stress here,
I'm talking about the review of the script, not the script itself.

If you can read between the rabid foam it actually sounds like a really nice
shooting script they have lined up. I especially like the ending.

I didn't read the whole thing because I don't want to be completely
spoiled. But if he is correct about some of the spoilers, I agree
with him -- the movie will indeed suck. Or at least, it will lose
some of the flavor that made the original movie great.

This is the internet. Misspellings are a given. Welcome aboard.

You didnt read the whole thing but you agree with him the movie will suck?

Maybe he went on to say things that might make you disagree with him about
how much, if at all the movie will end up sucking.

You will never know because you dont want to be 'spoiled'

Wow. Thanks for telling me that. There I was, thinking it was all full of
intellectuals and folk who can actually spell. Damn. I've only been on the
net since 1998 you condescending Muppet.

My point was anyone who purports to be a Highlander fan, and especially
someone as opinionated as this needs to spell peoples names correctly. The
guys name is Connor FFS.

Yes. I stopped reading when he went into detail about the ending. If
the movie sucks for the first 85 minutes, the last 5 won't salvage it.
And if the meta-spoiler for the ending (which I did read) was correct,
the ending will suck, too.

Having no interest in a remake of HL, I'm just passing by ... and
caught this. I have to pass long my favorite Muppet snippet.
