That is not Alex in H2!!!!
Accept it. H2 and H3 do not fit together. Brenda Wyatt died by solar radiation, not Alex Johnson. If H3 fits anywhere, it's with the television series, not the second film.
Change made on 01/03/2007: It is now widely accepted by fans so much that is has become part of the official Highlander timeline that Highlander 2 was nothing more than a Drug-induced dream of Connor MacLeod's during his time imprisioned inside the santuary seen in Highlander: Endgame. This information was added.
It is not as widely accepted as you suggest, and it is certainly not official.-- TOOTCB 04:38, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
Acutally it is official, P-D announced that way back when rumors of Highlander: The Source first started popping up. Of course, then they made a craptastic Source movie so maybe itll be drug-induced eventually too. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.162.181.238 ( talk) 19:02, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
It is unclear what Argentina has to do with this movie. Why would economic problems in Argentina impact the quality of thte end product? Mvblair 01:55, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
Irishguy went in and summarily removed my entire section dealing with the curious case of the disappearing and reappearing swords of MacLeod and Ramirez. This is rather heavy-handed. What do other people think? It's certainly verifiable what happened, so for it to be removed as "POV" is inappropriate I feel.
So I have re-added this section until someone can tell me why it is so different from other critical sections.
Many of my friends have noted this as one of the funniest parts of the movie, a subplot in itself, so I thought Highlander 2 deserves this section. It is not for Irishguy to remove without debate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lincoln muadib ( talk • contribs) 23:08, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
Views of a producer required to state plot points? I feel as if all I'm doing is stating/drawing attention to a plot that actually occurrs in the film. Other users noted that MacLeod's sword changed for no apparent reason, especially in the final scene where he goes from alien sword to katana- even in that section the author noted it was unknown how MacLeod got the sword again. How is that not original research ?
I'm happy to recraft the section without too much personal interpretation, even to put in in the "Criticism" section, but anyone actually viewing the film can see for their own eyes that the swords appear and disappear. Why do I need a producer source to verify this when others do not need producer source to state, for instance(in the "Criticism" section), that it is odd that Ramirez does not know MacLeod despite their having met on planet Zeist? How is this any different to my section in verifiability?

OK, found a reference, added it in, OK now? Now it's neither just me nor every viewer that can see this.
OK, I can see that section has been pared-back to drier debate. Still in line with the point I was making so I'm happy to leave it as that. Ta for expounding on the reasons.

Just went back and rewatched my Special Edition Highlander II DVD . . . noted that in this version it does explain/ show how Ramirez comes to have the scottish sword- so edited the section accordingly. Lincoln muadib ( talk) 02:24, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
It seems, it exists an European theatrical lost version (100mn), which is a prerenegade / director's cut with the knowledge of original screenplay.
I think, this is the version I saw in France (dubbed in french).

I have replaced the poster in the infobox with a poster that has credits on it and was the final release poster for the film. The replaced poster has no credits and looks more like the DVD cover than a release poster. ( Quentin X ( talk) 09:02, 10 June 2008 (UTC))
After the release of Highlander II, I read a review ending by stating that the most basic mistake of the sequel is precisely ignoring the first movie's motto: "There can be only one!" 89.139.225.20 ( talk) 20:34, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
The funniest thing about this movie is that the script was completely ripped off a forgotten early science fiction novel called "The Shield" (which is why it has so little to do with the first movie). Gregory Widen and Peter Bellwood, along with screenwriter Brian Clemens and co-producer William Panzer, supposedly came up with the story and screenplay for Highlander II. Utter bullshit. I found the novel while working at a used bookstore and didn't buy it, sadly. I can't prove it until I find the novel or remember the author's name, so I don't expect anyone to believe me. I remember being astounded that such a bad plot had actually come from a published book, albeit from the 1930s and long out of print. The premise, basic plotline, and of course "secret beyond the Shield" were all there.
I read on the article that fans of Highlander II have put together a fourth version of the film, yet there are no sources about this, and there's information on where to obtain it. Where can one view this fourth version of Highlander II? -- Kensane ( talk) 11:39, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
This is an urban legend or completely taken out of context. It's absurd for one thing; how can a film and TV actor get away with not wearing make-up? He can't. It's just not true. But more importantly, there is absolutely no substantiation for this rumor. I'm removing it from this page. There may be some truth to Clancy Brown turning down an offer to appear in the movie, but this is not why. If someone can find any truth to this claim, please add it. If someone can find any evidence with a reference and a link to show otherwise, I suggest that no one puts this urban legend back in to the article.-- 74.235.10.129 ( talk) 16:03, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
The article says that "He (Ramirez) also states that he would kill Connor if the fight for the ultimate prize came down to the two of them", but the version I have shows him just throwing Connor aside and continuing their training when Connor asked. Is there another version? Aurast ( talk) 18:48, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
I had the misfortune of seeing this when it was first released, attracted to it both as the sequel to Highlander and on the strength of the trailers. I could have sworn at the time that there were scenes in the trailers that did NOT appear in the final cut. If there's a reference for this somewhere, it might be an interesting fact to include. 192.91.173.42 ( talk) 03:47, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
The British Film Institute says this is an American production: [1]. I'm thinking we should go with what they say. NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 21:43, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
The sources added by the IP editor do not label this an Argentinian film; they just say that shooting took place there. Of the reliable sources that explicitly state the film's country of origin, none I've seen say that this is an Argentinian film:
Lumiere doesn't have an entry. I think it's fairly clear that this is not an Argentinian film, though shooting took place there. The sources the IP added only discuss the shooting and never label it an Argentinian film. By way of comparison, Star Wars: Episode IV was shot partly in Tunisia, but that doesn't make it a Tunisian film. NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 12:36, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
