I'd love a decent remake of Highlander with good acting. Always liked the story.


I'd love to see every single Hollywood type who announces a remake of an old film flayed alive slowly.

That said, Highlander doesn't lend itself to good acting. It's like Star Wars; not a very deep story, and it has to be over-acted to hit the right notes.

I'm reminded of Harrison Ford's comment to George Lucas on the set of Episode IV: "George, you can write this <expletive deleted>, but you can't act it!"


Technically....you could say that about all fantasy.


Are you saying that all the acting is bad because of the genre?

.

And I really don't care about this avatar thing. She just looks good whatever side you look at. Kudos to Aces though, he was first to use it (that I've seen anyway).

Just got back from Ikea. New wardrobe for bedroom on the way.

So...'some assembly required'? I think that's three of the most reviled words in the English language.
