    Highlander remake?

    http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index...ory=3&id=54552

    It seems that they are trying to make a Highlander remake. This has got to be the most needless remake in history! I watched the original a few weeks ago and it is still a great movie.

    Something tells me that this movie will be much like the star wars prequals, that is it will have well done fight scenes but have no soul or depth to it.

    A remake of the first film?
    Hmm I didn't like the sequels (but I liked the series with Duncan MacLeod...bet I'm one of very few that did )..

    But why they decided to make a remake of the first film is beyond me.
    What for? That film was good. No need to do that.
    And it is no film that would have relied heavily on SFX..

    Which Supernatural character are you? (I hate those things..but sadly it fits )
    You're John! You are skilled and smart, but world-weary and a little jaded. You're a serial monogamist, and you love hard. You can sometimes be a little too narrow-minded, and stubborn to a fault, but your heart is always in the right place.

      I agree, the first highlander is fine as is. I hate remakes because they hardly ever do justice to the original.

        The most needless remake in history was probably Planet of the Apes I think. But yeah, no, Highlander's a great movie.

          Highlander is great as it is. But, if they do go ahead with a remake, I'll check it out.

              Somewhat fresh ideas must be very scarce these days. All we see is remake after remake.

                I wouldn't mind more sequels though. I mean like Die Hard 4.0, Indy and the crystal skull, etc.

                    i think this is one of the few remakes i'll look forward too. i mean i like the first Highlander but i never really saw why it was so raved after.
                    Please do me a huge favour and help me be with the love of my life.

                      An immortal Jedi?

                      Doesn't that contradict the force or something?

                        Just think how easy cutting a persons head off would be with a lightsaber

                          Yeah but the whole 'There can only be one thing' kinda goes against the code of the Jedi.

                            it's easy cutting off heads with a lightsaber but I don't act in the game. Just u-no protect peace in the galaxy and stuff.
