That's OK. Uniformity of opinion is not required or even desired.

We're waiting for "The Source" so we have something to talk about.
Then we'll start awaiting for the *next* Highlander movie "Highlander:
Eternity" . I hear the part of Duncan's son, Connor, will be played by
Stan Kirsch. Sadly, the plot includes red fog and Duncan accidentally
kills Connor in a post-apocalyptic world gone mad. Duncan then searches
for the lost love-of-his-life, Vivian, whom he married back in 1745 but
lost when she discovered him standing over her with a knife in the
middle of the night. Duncan vows never to get married again or at least
to never mention any past marriages to future girlfriends. On his quest,
Duncan teams up with the Dread Pirate Methos, now played by David Spade.
In a dark castle somewhere in Eastern Europe, Duncan and the DPM come
face to face with the oldest living Immortal (barring the DPM) and
finally learn the truth of Immortality - that they really
are......ATTENTION, this plot summery has been halted by order of P/D.
If you want to know what happens, you can buy the Director's Cut DVD
available Spring 2019.

wait for a movie to actually be made?)(They started selling "Source"
jackets and such years ago.)(Still no movie.)

Isn't it obvious? The sale of the jackets was meant to fund the making of the movie. Had those jackets sold as predicted to the multitude of HL fans worldwide, the budget would have been on the order of Waterworld, and might have had the blessing of John Travolta and the acting skills of Rob Schneider AND Hulk Hogan. I weep for what might have been...

Maybe you are; I'm not. I've gone off HL altogether and am now
playing happily with people from the Pegasus Galaxy.

fine - so long as Ronin doesn't decide you're a threat in some
way.
