 We are watching Shrek 3 at work.  It reinforces my opinion that, like Highlander, there should be Only One (Shrek movie)

not necessarily "bad" or anything, but...

I think I'm one of the only people in the world who didn't hate Highlander 2: The Quickening with a fiery passion. In fact, I kind of liked it. It was so out there insane-bizarre/warp the mythology we created in the first. I mean, there were aliens and a shield blocking out the sun! And Sean Connery prancing around modern-day Scotland. His "Why the hell are you talking to a skull" conversation with the actor in Hamlet was hilarious.

I dunno, I don't think the movie took itself that seriously, and contributes a really bizarre sequel to the Highlander canon. The third one, now, that shouldn't have been made.

I do not hate Highlander 2 with a fiery passion. I do, however, think it may have been better if it had been it's own movie instead of as a sequel. There were, as you point out, some great things in it, it's just that Highlander left no room for a sequel.

I just read the trivia on it on imdb, and I'm curious about the "renegade version."

I actually didn't think you hated it, just that people in general tend to. I think you'd find some value in it, at least that it's so absolutely whacked out you almost have to admire it, heh.

As you pointed out, it has Sean Connery asking a man why he's talking to a skull. And I seem to recall swordfights on flying skateboards. You know me...
