    I've met several "so called outlaws", or "one percenters" and it hs been my experiemce that if you treat them with respect you'l get the same from them.

    But, I'd say that the second "Highlander movie" was a total bomb, possibly the worst sequal I've ever seen.

    I don't know....it sure doesn't sound as though you enjoyed yourself. You DO NOT strike me as the moviegoing type.

    Here in the states we must pay a large sum of money to watch the movie and then they make us also sit through a commercial for some product. When they first started that it was a real insult. I'm paying this sort of money AND I have to sit and watch a commercial????

    Several guys have mentioned this, but I don't remember seeing women having a problem with their dresses flying up in the air. :confused:

    no mashed pleats!

    Since we're on the topic, I had a happy experience last week...wore that wool blend Gordon that I got from the "scratch and dent" room at Stillwater to go see the Superman flick. I did what I hoped was a perfect pleat sweep as I sat down and proceeded to sit through the two hour plus duration of the movie. I got up expecting that I would have somehow mashed a couple of the pleats and that I would be walking around with them askew until I could get to an iron but I stood up and everything was PERFECT. Ahhh! I must have done a perfect sweep....

    Best

    Nope.

    I organized a Fencing Club outing where we all went to the movies to see "Highlander II: The Sickening". Some of those people probably still are angry at me. I pretend there are no "Highlander " sequels, after all "THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!"
