More on them in just a bit.
Like, is this like Stargate
where it's a giant fandom?
Is it a franchise?
I don't know.
I'm very excited to check it out.
And we're going to in three, two, one.
They got the money shot again.
Bravo.
Freaking Vaux.
Highlander.
And you got the bomb-ass soundtrack.
I had a fantastic, fantastic time.
I definitely worry with classics that have so much of a legacy and have so much, especially in certain genres if it'll hold up without growing up with it.
Because movies can be good for the time.
Movies can be good now.
And I'm sure there's a lot of movies I love now that my kids won't appreciate.
but this one I know my family likes it wasn't one I ever watched them I'd never seen it but I know like my dad's talked about it and I know that like my uncle likes it like it's come up as something that they watched and I was really worried that it just wasn't going to be of the time and then the first I'd say 20 minutes I was like I don't know if I'm vibing with the disparate tones and then something clicked and I was like oh I am in and then it just it only got better I'm just I'm just
so scared that you're going to have to ground your kids for not liking the movies
that you love one day put. Oh, it's inevitable. Those kids, those poor kids, you have to.
You don't love what dad likes. You must like it. While you live under my room, if you watch
Spider-Man. You're not allowed to disagree with him. By the way, guys, we just watched Highlander
the 1986 film. If you're listening on Apple or Spotify, make sure you use those one hands and you
give us those five-star ratings. And if you want cool teas like these, reject nation shop.com. Yeah, no, I
agree with you. The first 15, 20 minutes, like I was appreciating the cinematography, the music by
queen, all that shit. But like, yeah, it took me a minute to get into the tone of the film or the
differing tones and just understanding the world building that was happening. And once I got
the flow of it and what they were going for, I was like, this is really inventive. It's
intriguing. And I'm just, I'm all in. I love everything about this. And again, it was just different
than anything I've ever seen in terms of like, again, I really love the world building.
here it was it was cool i mean yeah we've seen stuff in the past with like you know the one and
shit like that of course um but i i just uh and also too i my jettlie's the one
i've never seen that one i've never seen that one really i've never thought it just made
the one reference because i'm wondering if that is inspired it's a similar i've never seen
that movie yeah yeah yeah yeah but um i i just mean like you know like the phrase i type of thing
kind of thing but um yeah no again the world building was very intriguing to me i love the
storyline in this, the rules and how they work all that, like the immortals and you have to
behead them and all that stuff. I like how simple and clean the rules were. Yeah. It's not like
overcomplicated and crazy shit. But also too, I really appreciate. We talked about, I know we talked
about it a ton. I love the transitions in this movie. So much. One of the highlights for me.
But they really took time. And it like, it shows how much effort they put into it. They actually shot that
in London, Scholar New York. That makes me.
me happy. We knew a lot of it was on location. It's just nice to read. Yeah, for sure. I mean,
they put a lot of heart and effort and it showed on screen. And again, there was that one shot, too,
I'm like, I'm not, what's with the grain here? I'm like, shut up. Shut up and just be patient
here. Yeah, the second after you said it, it was like, here's a special effect shot. And by the way, this is
from 86. This special effect shot from before we were born by two years. Yeah. No, for sure.
And I got to say, too, I loved, I know Sean Connery,
was not in the film like a ton, but I loved his performance. I love that, um, mentor.
He's such a good support. Oh, yeah, he really is. I mean, even in untouchable, so he plays such a good
man. I mean, plays a good. Yeah. What he plays. I was such a great mentor, uh, from a cloud here.
I love the way like, he set him off to. He's like, I'm trying to. He's like, he's so effective in,
uh, in, uh, in what he was doing there. Uh, and, uh, also to kind of that, that surrogate type of
father, uh, mentorship as well in terms of like, because he's in a time, like, yeah, he's in a time, like,
Yeah, he's founded the woman he loves, but also he's in a time too where, like you said,
superstition is a very, like, fickle thing.
And people like, who, like his cousins and his friends and family, like all spat in his face
and get the hell out of you.
Everybody got enous.
Yeah.
But besides Angus was only the only decent one there.
But everyone else, it's like, it's a weird time for McClout, because he still was
McLeod at that time as well.
It was a weird time for him.
And obviously he'd found love with Heather, but, you know, who knows what would have happened
over time. Obviously, we know that Heather was still a good human being. But, like, in terms of his
mentally for McLeod, it was a weird time. So it was nice that he finally, you know, met his
mentor and someone that could actually teach him, you know, like just the rules and all that stuff
and just and train him and all that for, obviously, for Clancy Brown's character, you know,
so that he could survive. And also, too, I think they did such an effective job of establishing
relationships in this. Like, that Rachel relationship was like, okay, what's the connection
here. I know she's his assistant or whatever she is.
But then that one scene. That one scene
was like, holy shit. Okay, yes.
I would be grateful to this man forever in the way
it's edited and done. And also
this film, I think it's got
the Christopher Nolan effect. And what I mean by
that, it nails the non-linear
storytelling. 100%. This movie would be
not, this was chronological. It would be
so less. And I really
like that they played with time. One of the transitions
which we yelled lovingly about many times.
But it allowed you to
learn things in a way that
was interesting as opposed to exposition heavy.
There's lots of exposition in this film.
Even if the rules are simple, you still have to explain them clearly and you still have
to have that.
But what I loved is the first half, they had so much mystery that when they explained stuff, I was
like, oh, of course.
Like, they set things up really well.
And that being out of chronology allowed you to use time to set things up later and to
answer questions that you yourself set up.
At no point in the film, did you know everything until 15 minutes until the end?
Right.
The scene where they come together in a room of all of his history is when you learn the full extent of his history.
And I thought that was really impressive.
Storytelling.
Yeah, no, I completely agree with you.
And really quick, too, off the nonlinear storytelling, I think to nail that with any film, if you're going to nail nonlinear storytelling, you got to get good editors.
And this film just really nailed it.
And to also the point you just made, in the first 15, 20 minutes, I love the fact that we're not being spoon fed.
Like, I was like, okay, I'm so intrigued.
I'm not like again I'm like okay I know a couple things but I don't know everything like
it's not predictable like that's one of my biggest pet thieves I hate predictable
movies have gotten more and more predictable and it's not that we're getting smarter it's that movies
are getting dumber yeah for sure and again I get it writing is not an easy thing to do I understand
but I agree with you it's like I love shit like this from like I have no idea where we're going
where we're heading don't trust the audience anymore and I liked that the opening was that like two
paragraphs and from that I inferred immortal or growing up I might have
heard something, but I just didn't
know. And then the movie kept me
guessing as to how the immortality
rules would work, all these things. And there
wasn't ever a character that was like, hello, I'm
the little paperclip from that fucking
computer program to tell you what's going on. And I like
that. And I do feel like more and more
modern movies don't trust the audience to infer
things because we're watching them
like that. And
so it's not really an opportunity
to really do anything with
it. And that's so frustrating.
And so I really like, one of the things I like
about reacting is I'm engaged, but also I'm so focused on stuff and having the conversation
that it used to be hard for me to react to movies because I'd be distracted by the lights
and the camera and the whole experience, not feeling natural. But now it's this in movie
theaters to watch movies because then I don't have the option of the other screen to distract
me from the screen. And I do think that screen is causing our attention spans to be so shortened,
this doesn't get to exist anymore. For sure. I also want to mention too. I'm going to get into
Clancy Brown in a second. I love that they gave this character so much emotional depth and they
grounded him like, yeah, he's got this awesome power and he's immortal, but they also grounded him in
terms of it's a curse as well. Like he can't really love because if he does, he's going to out age them.
And that was another great timeline thing. We heard how bad that was going to be and we'd already met
the woman that he sees die. And then halfway through the film, the emotional weight of her dying,
we've earned it. And then we get to see him have another relationship. And then we get to
see the paternal, like, fatherly relationship with the woman that we'd already met.
Right, right. And also, too, that made me fall in love with his character so much more, too,
like the fact that he didn't leave Heather, and he's willing to stay with her because he loved
her so much. Yeah. And then also, too, with Rachel as well, like, he's still willing to be
her protector. Doesn't matter how old she got, like, and stay with her that long. Like,
he's just a good person, like, through it all. Like, I just, I love his character so much.
So impressed. Again, they grounded him, gave him so much depth.
And I was just so emotionally invested in this character that I wanted him to win so bad and survive.
So I thought, great job.
And Christopher Lambert, awesome performance.
I love this charisma.
I will now only see Ms.
Constantine.
Dude,
I was like Thomas Shane and Tom Hardy.
He looks so much like Thomas Shane and Tom Hardy.
Like this part of him is Tom Hardy.
This part of him is Thomas Jane.
And I've never, other than in children of two actors, seen someone look more like two actors.
Yeah.
And also, biologically, this one's impossible.
But it happened.
How did it happen?
Yeah.
I loved also, too, Clancy Brown.
I love the energy.
And again, when you have a villain, like, again,
they didn't go into a bunch of depth
in terms of, like, his character, but...
He just had to have that one line.
Yeah.
They throw kids in a pit.
Yeah.
No, I mean, like, the only line about his backstory,
it was like, the Russian steps thrown kids in pits.
You're like, that's a bad man.
Yeah, for sure, for sure.
And I loved how lean the writing was.
And it also gave us a lot of, like,
a bitch inside of van visuals.
The fact that we had that, like,
lightning storm on these stair steps that were stow.
Like, there were so many moments that wouldn't work in today's filmmaking style because that would have been shot on the volume.
And it would have felt like an artifice.
Instead, they went to Scotland and they obviously added lightning.
But it felt more tangible.
So then the extraordinary was rooted in ordinary.
If you're going to do things that are high fantasy, there needs to be some things that ground it.
And I think a big part of what's wrong with action and fantasy movies today is there isn't an anchor.
And I want these anchors.
And I think that's why we're so nostalgic.
for movies that aren't that good.
I love you audience,
but if you genuinely think Fantastic Four
in some of the early 2000s X-Men movies
are better than the ones today,
I think it's just a nostalgia for those things.
And All Taste is subjective,
but there is an inherent want for things to feel tangible.
And I do think we miss that,
and I hope we swing back to it,
but Highlander was like high fantasy insane story,
but it all felt like a world you could somehow go to.
Yeah, absolutely.
Reject Nation, I never really consider myself a sports guy.

Get into Daily Fantasy Sports, like this expert over here.
I also loved Clancy Brown's energy, his voice.
He was just a very menacing presence in a film, like, with immortal beings.
And yeah, we know that if you behead them, like, obviously they die, but still, like,
he really had that looming and I know I kind of made the comparison I'm going to say it again he had that terminator presence to him just like this relentless being but just with more energy and joy and madness that scene on the car was such a great explanation of like what you do if you're immortal and you're mad you lost it right right no it was great his performance was fantastic I mean Clancy Brown's always a win for me so I loved him I love the soundtrack queen the cinematography again yeah the score um Michael Kamen he's awesome lethal what I
weapon. You can't go wrong and he did the first X-Men 2000 film. You can't go wrong with Michael
Kamen. Russell, Malachi, however you say it. Again, I'm going to rewatch Shadow now after having
seen Highlander because I see so much inspiration for why they wanted him to do Shadow. And again,
I think that's a very underrated film, but I'm going to have to rewatch that one. But yeah,
lots of good stuff. I'm going to get into the trivia in a second here. But I got to say,
I really, really dug this film a lot. That was like four to five stars for me. That was a strong,
strong strong one i really really love that highlander here we go let's see oh damn they got high
what do you think out of 10 that this film got average rating on imbdb yeah nine one really he cut
a seven which is still very high i think i would have said eight if you hadn't just said
it's my fault tivit i was like i think i'm gonna over assume um it's got a three three on a on letterboxed
oh i always check letterboxed well you i'm db okay so
So here we go for trivia.
All of Sir Sean Connery's scenes had to be filmed in a week due to Connery's schedule.
A week.
He had a bet with director Russell Mulcahy that they would not finish in seven days, but Mulcahy won the bet.
Connery earned $1 million for this week's work.
Back in 86.
That's a lot of money for a week's work.
But he's all of the poster, I'm sure.
He's also part of the legend of the movie, so it worked.
Yeah.
It was a cost-productive million-dollar week for everybody.
For sure. Sir Sean Connery and Christopher Lambert got along so well during filming that they called each other by their character's names even when they were not filming.
And it was at Lambert's insistence that Connery and his character returned for Highlander 2 The Quickening.
I don't know how it exists.
We shall see one.
Hey, guys, share this video if you want us watch Highlander 2, The Quickening.
Leave a comment below.
Let us to watch Highlander 2 The Quickening.
I clicked on Highlander, too, and saw the rating.
Oh, no.
I'm sure it's not a seven.
I still want to see it.
I don't care.
I want to see where the story goes.
The sword's sparkling while clashing, which I loved, was accomplished by attaching a wire to each sword that led down the arms of the actors to a car battery.
One was connected to the positive terminal and the other to the negative terminal, so when the swords touched, there was an arc.
That's bananas.
That is awesome.
That's great.
I love that.
Queen originally intended to record only one song for this movie.
But after viewing footage from the film, they were inspired to write more.
The band members each had a favorite scene and composed songs specifically for them.
Brian May wrote, Who Wants to Live Forever during the Cab Ride Home?
After seeing the movie and Roger Taylor used the line,
it's kind of magic as the basis for the entitled song.
Badass.
I'm listening to it in the car.
Yeah, that's when you know you have a good movie when Queen goes,
No, no, no, we want more.
We'd like to make more art for you.
punch us one while filming the scene at eileen dunan castle the car park by the castle had to be
covered up with tons of peat uh to disguise it the house located by the bridge out to the castle was
boxed in with hardboard and painted over so that looked just like real stone even when you
stood right beside it extras were paid 25 a day with a 10 pound bone or 25 pounds a day with a 10
pound bonus even if they took their own horses a lot of the locals took several
He's off work to do it.
Ha, cool.
After filming the scene where the Kyrgyn confronts McLeod in the church,
Clancy Brown apologized to the priest and nuns there for his character's dialogue for fear that
he had offended them.
What a nice guy.
Wholesome, Clancy Brown.
It's just my character, I promise.
I'm not like this in real life.
Love it.
I'm assuming you saw Starship Troopers, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, no, no, actually, that's the only, what's a call that I haven't seen.
I will not say a word then.
Because I loved, I recently watched Robocop for the first.
time. And I've seen showgirls, but I've never seen show girls. It's a light. But I
some haven't seen Starship. I need to watch show girls. Christopher Lambert spent time with a dialogue
coach developing an accent which sounded non-specific foreign. That's why I couldn't place it, except
the laugh. Let's do a couple. I wonder, should we do spoilers? Let's do it. Okay. They've seen
the movie. Yeah. Well, just me in case we do the sequels in case I give away. Oh, do you
think that'll be in there? Who knows? Well, let's just do it. Screw it. Do the top like three.
Yeah. Okay.
Oh, my God, there's so much trivia just to get to the spoilers.
Good.
Okay.
Gregory Wyden's original screenplay was a much darker and grittier portrayal of the Highlander universe.
The main characters are also different in several ways.
Connor was born in 1408 instead of 1518.
He lived with his mother and father.
In the draft, Heather, Connor's beloved wife in the film, does not exist.
Connor was promised to a young girl named Mara, whom he loved.
with all of his heart, but who later rejects him after he becomes immortal.
Connor leaves his village instead of being banished.
His alias in the draft was Richard Tupin,
and he used an assortment of swords rather than the katana he took after Ramirez's death
in the film.
Ramirez was a Spaniard rather than an ancient Egyptian born more than 2,000 years earlier.
The Kurgan was known as the knight using the alias Carl Smith.
He was not a savage, but a cold-blooded killer.
Brenda was known as Brenna Hartwright.
Other major aspects were later changed during
rewrites initially Immortals could have children in this or in the draft Connor is said to have
had 37 the movie was originally set in DC and Pennsylvania in the present day rather than
New York City the final showdown took place in a museum kind of like this version like this version
I also think the children aspect made their more stakes of why being immortal be hard yeah like I
like that being life versus death and stuff yeah and also too like it feels like a curse too
Yeah, like you can't create life, but you don't have life if you want to have life.
Like, have a life.
Yeah.
Okay, two more.
Ramirez was born in 896 BC in Egypt during the 22 dynasty.
When Ramirez meets McLeod in 1541 AD, he is 2,437 years old, and he was 357 years old
when Massimune Ramirez's father-in-law made the katana sword for him.
in tribute to Sekikou, Seikko, Ramirez's wife, and Massimune's daughter.
Cool.
Math.
Yeah.
According to the director's commentary, the animated lightning on Connor's shoulders when he receives the prize was actually supposed to disguise the wires.
Ironically, this may have just drawn more attention to them.
Yep, noticed.
Yeah, just a bit.
That was so good, though.
Like, I really like things being as practical as possible, even at the cost of something like that.
I think it still feels more real.
that was sensational. I really enjoyed that.
We've been watching some of the classics like Stargate and Platoon and on Touchables.
I'm not sure which one's out yet.
Doesn't Touchables out?
Touchables is The Abyss.
The Abyss?
Oh my God.
So, once in some classics, let us know in the comments below.
There is a chance we have seen them, but if it's pre-85, it's a likelihood we haven't.
I did mainly focus on the present in my 3,000 movies I've seen, but a lot of the recent
one, the Andrew hasn't seen, so you've seen a lot of his stuff popping up.
So we are attacking movies at large.
This was a delight, though.
I really, really liked this one.
Please leave a like.

Let us know if there's anything else you want to check out.
And share this with someone that loves Highlander in your life.
We'll see you soon.
Reject Nation, much appreciated it.
Bye.
