I watched this the other day. I can't believe it's been over a year since we discussed it. It wasn't that bad of a movie to be honest. Here's a review: "People make Highlander II out to be one of the worst sequels of all time. It has even in some cases won this detested award, however, is it really that bad? Is even the first Highlander movie really that good? The answer to both of these questions are no. This is just a mediocre and poorly written sequel. The original movie, while mostly good, is far from a perfect movie. This sequel film has a lot of the same good elements from the original like the great soundtrack by Queen, a returning cast of characters which includes Sean Connery and it tries to expand upon the Highlander mythology, albeit in a slightly retarded way. The main problem with the film is that the writing is dog shit for the most part. There are so many subplots that do not tie together and the Ozone layer main story dates the film so incredibly to the early 90's. Ozone depletion is absolutely still a relevant issue in 2021. All it would take for the calamity to worsen again would be for some first-world dumbass politician like Donald Trump to disassemble the environmental legislations banning ozone-depleting chemicals, which I could totally picture him doing, considering his ignorance towards science. I'm willing to bet Highlander 2 is closer to reality than shit like Star Wars, which has nothing to do with reality and is just an old-fashioned throwback to a sci-fi film serial from the fucking 1930s. Then again, Star Wars fanboys are the kind of shmucks who deny climate change, deny overpopulation, endorse unsustainable technology, and issue death threats against prequel and sequel trilogy actors, so you first-world thugs never had any credibility to begin with. |

Why the fuck would someone like Donald Trump care about CFCs? They banned that shit and Haylon. It's a dead problem! And you're going off on a tangent about bloody Star Wars fans' hypothetical thought crimes! Go eat a steak or something! |

My point is that you are wrong to label ozone depletion as a dated trope of dystopian sci-fi because it's still a relevant issue in 2021. centipede If ozone depletion wasn't covered in elementary text books, the younger generation could inadvertently reverse the calamity. This is why it's so important for mainstream media to adopt ozone depletion, climate change, and overpopulation. Star Wars is one of the few sci-fi franchises that fails to address these issues because its completely fucking retarded because George Lucas is a fat, regressive, materialistic, all-american slob who gobbles up palm oil and puts people before the planet. |

I think Melee is crossing his streams with this chowderbrainness and random hate threads.

Star Wars is set in the past, so that point about preventing the future doesn't even add up.

Well, you really think chemical engineers WOULDN'T know or care about potentially environmentally dangerous chemicals?
Also, since you're unnecessarily ripping itno Star Wars fans, what do you say about SeaQuest DSV, Battlestar Galactica or Babylon 5?

All I know is that I hate Star Wars and Star Trek and both of their respective fandumbs. |
