I saw the thread title and was thinking old classics like Casablanca.
Me too.
But, I did love Highlander back in the day.
I've admitted before, and will do so again, that Highlander is a favourite of mine. It has the perfect mix of action, humour and a killer soundtrack, and doesn't take itself too seriously. I've watched this heaps of times. There are plenty of other 80s movies that are the same.
Now Highlander II is a turd and I've only watched that once.

When your best hope of seeing boobies was if a screwball film was on TV and there was a brief shower scene. It was the worst when you were watching a scene that was developing nicely and then you had to suddenly change channel when a parent was about to walk in. Memories.
Was National Geographic articles on the highlands of New Guinea in my day

@jc I always felt it was a concept better suited to a TV show than a movie. Excellent soundtrack though.
im currently working my way through the TV series, it started with the idea The Gathering is nearing...but really its just become very formulaic, duncan runs into an old friend/foe, if its a friend then he generally finds they have bent to the weight of years and turned bad and he eventually has to fight them....if theyre bad he just ends up fighting them, role credits
I think it might work better with today 10 episode type series...with the 90's 22-24 episode series....it drags

@nepia I have nothing against him, was just trolling, I mean he's like the Rock at moment, anything he does works.
Have liked him since he was in The Tudors.
Apparently he has been signed on to a reboot for years but it is gaining traction since his star has risen.

Old to me as before my time, 1979. Heartbreaking.

If Highlander is old then I’m ancient.

A shit Franchise like the Highlander can have her

@jc I watched it about a month ago and it has aged, quite badly in some respects. The most obvious being the two dollar special effects.
A reboot would be good. Up the SFX budget to $10,000 and hire some capable actors. No need to go too woke given the immortals come from all corners of the globe.
