This is the classic good news/ bad news.
DA and AP know and love HL and should be the best team to produce a
great HL movie.
OTOH, if the movie sucks, there will be no one to blame except them.
WEndy(No wait ...)(We can blame the editors!)

We can also blame the studio, the director, D&P, etc.

>>> Adrian Paul is now *confirmed* as both star and Executive Producer.
As for the star part, I'm sorry to see that he has no better prospects & is
willing to go backward, professionally. His career might finally prosper if
he could just distance himself from Highlander. He has the skills, the
looks, & the work ethic to be so much more than another low-rent action guy.
The Bond thing is just silly, but one good, mainstream role is all he needs
to be a respected actor & a contender for the big roles. Duncan MacLeod
will never do the job for him.
Regarding his being an EP--that's so often a meaningless title. Back w/
Endgame, we were assured AP had not only script approval (yeah, right) but
also control over several other key aspects. Didn't work out that way.
Those blasted "suits," you know.
As for Abramowitz, no matter how much the final script may parallel in
excellence his work in the series, there are still the hurdles of changes
made during filming AND in butcher-shop editing. Gillian Horvath wrote the
story for Endgame, after all. Didn't help.
Nina (the caption could so easily transform to HL 5 is a "ho")

I believe Jim B. & Peter W. are set to reprise Joe & Methos also.
Maybe having Methos in a larger part will help out the new
film/story. I'm not sure if this is still at the 'rumor' stage or not
as I'm way behind on my listmail & all computer stuff. :-\ Possibly
someone else can confirm this...
