Talk:Highlander: The Source

message: "Highlander: The Source is the fifth, and by far best installment of the Highlander film series by leaps and bounds..."
What evidence do we have of that?  The only critical reception known to date is from the Russian leak, and this very article said fan reception was largely negative.  Really, an intro like that reeks of irresponsible hype.--Martin Boyden 05:19, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

message: hmm... apparently it has to be from scratch. if it has to be deleted, do it. i just copied it from the previous page because it was too long. HoneyBee 04:39, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Frankly, with the DVD release in Russia, the whole article needs to be scrapped and re-written based on undeniably accurate information: the film itself.--TOOTCB 06:12, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: It's more "official" than the leaked information that was here before. --TOOTCB 14:27, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: From scratch

message: According to the citation in the article, filming was completed in December 2005.  However, it is now January 2007, so there may have been difficulty by the studio in getting the film released, either in theaters or straight-to-DVD.  If anyone comes across information citing the on-goings of this completed film in 2006, please share. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 18:12, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

message: At least in Poland, the early cut has already been officially released... Ausir 20:25, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Is there a source for that information? I really can't imagine them release a leaked version officially. If it really has been released, then many parts of the article need to be rewritten. But if there's no confirmation for this information, I am going to take that part out of the article. --87.122.19.181 23:09, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: People may find it hard to believe that a Highlander film would be released and then have another version of it released later as a "final cut" but let's face it, these can only be newbies. EVERY film in the Highlander series has had at least one alteration. The movie was not "leaked" but officially released in Russia, Poland and Holland before its official premiere on the Sci Fi Channel this Sept 15/16. The DVDs that are out now are not "illegal" or "rips" but the real official product released in various countries. Believe it or not, the US is not always the first country to get a movie. This was a low budget sci fi movie made for a niche market, so it really shouldn't be a huge shock. You can go to Russian, Dutch and Polish websites to order the official DVD. What more proof do people need? Davis-Panis productions has said that the "final producer's cut" of the film will be the one released in September, they never said that any of these other releases were "illegal" or "bootlegs" as many deluded fans have tried to claim (sorry, but what else can they be called? apparently they can't believe Highlander would reach such lows, but let's face it, it can and it has!).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.180.214.22 (talk) 13:58, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

message: The "Plot" section is horrible.  It seems to assume you've seen the movie already.  It jumps around.  It has now flow to it. Chrismon 04:10, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks like no one edited the plot since this was posted a while back, but indeed that is an accurate and chronologically accurate plot summery (unfortunately).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.201.129.140 (talk) 10:19, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Profitability 

message: Why is the German release, which has not even been released yet, referred to as a new cut when it is in all likelyhood the same cut as the one that was issued in Russia, Poland and Brazil earlier this year? The run time stated at the distributors site is the same as the two previous PAL releases (Russia, Poland). There is nothing to support the notion there is another re-edit.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ferdinandhudson (talk • contribs) 21:43, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Early releases 

message: "UK:
The Region 2 release is out now from 7 January 2008. This is the same version as the Dutch DVD albeit in the incorrect aspect ratio of 1.78:1."
Whats incorrect about it? its the standard European Hi-Def widescreen aspect ratio, since the film was made in filmed in cinema aspect ratio 2.35:1 it would have to be cropped to some more standard tv ratio.
:Why should it have to be cropped? The intended theatrical aspect ratio is 2.35:1 and should be kept for DVD/BD release. So far all DVD/BD releases worldwide have used the intended aspect ratio except for the UK and Brazil releases. The TV ratio should not dictate the ratio of commercial home release or next we would see cropped releases of Gone With The Wind or Casablanca.Ferdinandhudson (talk) 17:37, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  UK aspect ratio 

message: The info box states this movie is followed by Highlander: Prophecies, but I can't find any reference to it beyond a similarly named episode of the TV series. What is it? a cancelled sequel, perhaps?  --M4roho (talk) 14:01, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It is just complete nonsense. What comes next is the remake of the original and that one is only known as "Highlander" at the moment, a title of "Highlander: The Reckoning" has also been mentioned here but that has been addressed by the admin on the Highlander board as incorrect. There are just too many unsourced entries on this wiki-page that I can't bother to use this for any credible information. Ferdinandhudson (talk) 16:59, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Followed by... 

message: The article claims that: "....they leave to find the Source, which they have determined to be on an island in a lake in Eastern Europe." This is partly incorrect. It is in fact an Island in the eastern part of the Baltic Sea and not in a lake. I stopped the movie at 37.50 as it today was shown on BBC iPlayer. --86.146.123.9 (talk) 21:33, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
