DanJW Posted August 23, 2007 Yes but it's going to be based on all that series nonsense. None of the follow-ups to the first movie have "got it" in my estimation (the third movie came close). Hmm, anyone know if the series counted Highlander 2 as cannon? That was a "ruin the mythos" move on the same scale as the Matrix sequals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nappi Posted August 23, 2007 Damn. For a while I thought we'd be seeing caber tossing and upkilts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lama Himself Posted August 23, 2007 See my post on Totems. Widescreen is just a rubbish company. They screw everything they touch. They have some nice artist and there is some talented people on the team, but the reste of the company is just a piece of junk. [edit]Are they stupid to the point that they cannot take screenshot without the coordinate system? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
