Mythology \n\n
Taking a simple mysterious mythology and explaining it for fun and profit*.
\n\n Meta \n\nThe original Highlander\u2019s original, surprising success story. Deciding to make a sequel. Budgets and revenues and how did we get here, really?
\n\n Versions \n\nAliens vs time travel. The clincher: neither actually makes any more sense than the other.
\n\n People \n\nNot only Connnor MacLeod of the Clan MacLeod, but ALSO his best friend who totally just died in the last movie. but hey, lol jk it\u2019s a kind of magic. Ol\u2019 Ironsides hamming it up and honestly stealing the show. Recasting Highlander 2 with characters from The Room. The 80s/90s: when bad guys were really bad guys and just didn\u2019t need a reason.
\n\n The ozone layer \n\nThe actual environmental problem that the world actually got together amd potentially resolved! Fixing the ozone layer. The \u201cshield\u201d in the film and blocking all of the visible light in addition to the UV.
\n\n Scenes \n\nSome scenes from this film were truly mind-boggling and/or amazing and it\u2019s hard to tell which were which. Ironsides ham. The car scene, OR sacrificing Yoshi to make the jump. Sean Connery being rogueish/trash on a plane. Scottish fan-death. Offscreen sword-switching antics.
\n\n* not really very much profit tbh
