There were actually two attempts to fix that steaming pile. Highlander II: Renegade Edition. They basically recut the film to try to hide the fact that they had scripted the immortals to really be aliens from another planet. It took out that one atrocity, but the alternate was not much better....that the immortals were banished to various points in history for some dumb reason I can't remember. They did seem to fix the problem with gaping plot holes every 20 minutes though.

Then they did a special edition, ala George Lucas style. Added a bunch of CGI to the renegade edition in hopes that people would suddenly like it. I haven't seen it, but I am guessing that unlike Star wars, people were not offended because the source material sucked to begin with.

HC: I will check out the series one day. Also, yea I looked into it and you're right. They really are doing the Robocop statue. That's cool. And how can they not find a place for it? Every few feet is a burned down building, and you can buy a lot with an abandon building for $1,000 in Detroit. Just buy the lot and demo the building and put the statue there. Seriously...the entire city is burned down except for where Comerica Park and the Casinos are. That little area is nice for the tourists, but if you make a wrong turn down a side street you're in Pakistan.

Thats awesome that they are going ahead with the statue! Wow, I didnt know Detroit was so bad. I mean, I knew it was bad, but not THAT bad.  :scared

I remember going to see the Highlander sequel in college at the theater right by our apartment.  Took the girlfriend and I'm sure that was the beginning of the end of that relationship.  I can't believe a movie could be that bad.

Until Snake Plissken started surfing.

Yeah that was brutal. The effect itself looked horrible. Did John Carpenter do that one as well?
