I love writing Commentary Tracks Of The Damned installments. Only problem is, the format is so short that hard choices must be made. For instance, in this week's Highlander 2 feature, it was impossible to include the entire awkward, embarrassed, forced-jolly conversation the filmmakers had while watching Christopher Lambert and Virginia Madsen boink against a wall, in one of the new version's most ridiculous and least-justified add-ons. In the hopes that you find this as funny as I did, here's the entire exchange as a supplement to the snippet I was able to fit into the piece:
Bill Panzer: Now here, here you go, Peter. Here's where Christof has his first romantic encounter with Virginia. I think we made this a little more sensual, as it was originally intended, in the Renegade Version than in the original. Uh, I'm sure some feminists would disagree with the word "romantic."
Russell Mulcahy: Well, she gets NAILED up against the WALL.
Panzer: Right. [He laughs. Long pause.]
Mulcahy: Which is… rather romantic.
