    Aye Todd,

    But would have been cool if Michael and Sean were kilted in the movie.

    Kilted through the Kiber Pass, that would have been something. Although IMHO The Man who would be King is one of those movies that need not be remade as the original is so good.

    Agreed -- after all, Peachy and Danny were not Highlanders in Kipling's original story.

    YES!!! What a waste of film. I watched it free at my in-laws on HBO and was still mad even though I didn't pay to see it. I thought Sean Connery should've kilted up in the Indiana Jones movie.

    How about a remake of the Lord of the Rings trilogy where the dwarves wear kilts.

    I actually used this idea in a Dungeons and Dragons setting I created. One area of dwarven population was similar to the Scottish highlands and they all wore kilts.

    "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly" done in kilts. How about something like "Big Jake" done in kilts, complete with the motorcycle son wearing kilt and leather glengarry/ helmet... And don't forget "Planet of the Kilted Apes."

    Sorry Ron, you said have some fun.
