The other day, I was cruising around the internet and I read a reference to the Highlander series. I realized, me being the geek that I am, I had never actually seen the first Highlander movie. I saw most of it with friends, but we didn't pay any attention to it. I had seen the third movie in theaters when I was ten years old, and I remember distinctly thinking "This is the coolest thing I have ever seen! I have absolutely no idea what is going on". To this day I haven't seen the movie again, and I still have no clue what happened in that movie.
So here we are, and I have this blog. I figure I'll spend the next five days watching ALL five Highlander movies, and reviewing each one on this blog.
So, diving into the depths of madness that is the Highlander franchise I may as well watch the TV series too. And thanks to Hulu it has the entire series online.
Why am I doing this?
Boredom, and a desire to do something with this blog that's not completely random movie reviews.
So, expect a review of the first Highlander sometime this week, the second next week and so on.
So to close this post I ask my readers this one question: Can you name any other film franchise that has spawned: 4 sequels, 2 live action TV series, an animated series, and an anime feature film? The closest I can think of is RoboCop, but I'm not sure.
Now remember everyone; in the end there can be only one!
