What's with all the alternate titles?

Why so many alternate titles?

Highlander: The Final Dimension
Highlander: The Sorcerer
Highlander III
Highlander III: The Final Conflict
Highlander III: The Apology For Highlander II (Which, As It Turns Out, Was
Worse Than The Offense)
Highlander: The One The Fans Should Have Disowned
(okay, I made the last one up, but even so...)

Of course, this is probably the least of the questions this movie raises, such as:

How did Connor McCloud suddenly become such an idiot?

What kind of a villain just randomly decides to not kill the good guy and fly away like a coward when there was no way to not win at the moment?

Why do women always have a sex scene with Connor McCloud without any reason other than for the sake of a sex scene?

Why was this movie made?

and

Whatever happened to, "There Can Be Only One."

You forgot HIghlander 3: The Magician.

>Why do women always have a sex scene with Connor McCloud without any reason other than for the sake of a sex scene?

It has always bugged be they start humping the guy for no reason. Especially the chick in Highlander 2. Who just met him and minutes ago he was an 80 year old man and is now vibrant and youthful so she drops her drawers.

Then again Ive heard that situations where youre life is at risk really turns people on or has stressed them out that sex is an outlet for them.
Who knows.

of all the different titles which one is the best?
i have the sorcerer.

Though I despise the movie, I think it answered that question and I think he was adopted. Also I think after he won the prize he could have children. Not sure how three immortals trapped would equal everyone else being dead and him winning the prize but that's how this terrible sequel works.

It's not anything as bad as Highlander 2 though.

John MacLeod is adopted. And some of us think H2 is better....;)

Most people let their full measure of life drip away. Like me.

He realised he was on holy ground. Immortals can't play the game on holy ground.

'Why do women always have a sex scene with Connor McCloud without any reason other than for the sake of a sex scene?'

I guess saying '... I cannot die' turns chicks on.

'Why was this movie made?'

Redemption. It failed.

Yea, I'll have to try that. Maybe it's the fact he is an alien though why Virgina jumped on him then and there. He didn't even work for that one!

Me: I am Connor MacLoud of the clan MacLoud. I am from Zeist and I cannot die.

Girl: You mean the Netherlands? (puzzled look)

Me: No, outerspace, duh.

Girl: O (sultry look in eyes.)

"Repent, Harlequin!" said the Ticktockman.
"Get stuffed!" replied the Harlequin, sneering.
