[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Red Admiral: [QB] I'm a stranger in this thread in regards to having never watched the Highlander series. I'm a big Highlander fan, of the movies though, well the first one anyway. The second one was hideous, the third contradicted the first and so forth. So I never bothered with the fourth or the TV series, and now there's a fifth movie, what should I do now? Do I have to sit down and watch the series to understand movies 4 and 5?? You see, in my mind Highlander was a movie about Connor Macleod. He defeated the bad guy and won the prize. He [i]won[/i], period, in my mind. So to me it ended there. Appranetly not so, due to the other movies, being canon or non-canon alike, and multiple seasons it seems of a TV series. So after careful analysis it would seem there are 4 Highlander universes. 1. Highlander (my choice) 2. Highlander II (horrific, don't even go there) 3. Highlander III (tried to pick up after the first film, it at least had some of the same romantic flavors, but just didn't cut it - I echo Alban Rune's earlier comments on this) 4. Highlander the series, and Highlander IV (beyond my knowledge) I'm just so damn confused as to how the series fits in with the great and perfectly substantial first film. I think I could only accept the series if it did not [i]usurp or contradict[/i] the flow and continuity of the first film. To enjoy the continuing Highlander saga I want there to be a solid universe (I think I can happily ignore movies two and three as they just weren't any good) Am I making any sense....? Or am I just being a dumbass, one who can't simply enjoy both universes for the sake of entertainment...? I am after all a sad Trek-head, and continuity is a painfully significant issue.... So help me, waddo I do...? [/QB][/QUOTE]
