[edit] Subtitle?

I have never heard of the subtitle named in this article. Is there any reference for this? I always thought the original film was simply called "Highlander".

[edit] Commendation

Sorry if this is the wrong place to put this, but i think that the info on this series is comprehensive, and, in short, incredible. I wanted to commend anyone who added to this article.

[edit] different versions

I have not been able to find a release in the U.S. that contains any of the Nazi Germany scene, which I always felt was pivotal to anchor and explain the recurring phrase "it's a kind of magic" -- some scenes from the final fight seem to also have been cut in the U.S. versions, namely the toppling water tower. Anyone know of a U.S. source for the uncut version?

As a comment on the first item here, Subtitle?, I was not able to find any such reference?!

The Director's Cut is essentially the European cut, with the Buzz added in and the line "This is the Quickening!" removed.--TOOTCB 21:37, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] there can be only one

wasn't this movie suposed to be called Highlander: There Can Be Only One. Watch this trailer if you don't believe me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kq4SqgxIKM0 Golumas-Smygolas 16:31, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

No, "There Can Be Only One" is just the tagline.--TOOTCB 07:14, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reception

I don't think the mention of "movie critic Joe Gayeski" seems appropriate - it strikes me as a probable advertisement. If you're going to mention reviews for a movie, why wouldn't you mention more famous reviewers instead of someone no one's heard of?

[edit] Heroscape

Can someone more familiar with Heroscape trim that section? At the moment, it doesn't seem to contain much of relevance to Highlander, apart from having a similar "there can be only one" tagline. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Optimus Sledge (talk • contribs) 20:26, 12 January 2007 (UTC).
