Steven Seagal - Lawman

[just jim]

whoa - Van Damme can act. He's good looking. He has a nice smile. Stallone got his start by raising the money for his own films by writing the scripts. In Lords of the Flatbush he's brilliant. And Schwarzenegger has presence and stars in two films in the Dellzeqq All Time Top 20.

Seagall is notable only for being inadvertantly comic. Unless there's something that I've missed.....

He also cooks.

Total Recall - Philip K. Dick masterpiece
Predator - 'gay played as straight' meditation on AIDS. With extraordinary ripped flesh and wild weaponry.

I like Seagal....

Just had a box set of his DVDs delivered and I saw him and his band at the Robin in Bilston. Singing was crap mind.

Stereo-typical martial art action star of the 80's, along with Van-Damne. He's also very adept at using a pistol achieving a marksman level and holds a dan grade in Akido.

Why can I not dissociate Steven Seagal and Jonathan Livingstone Seagull?

 

[Speicher]

Indeed, his voice and stupid pony tail are very comical and the whole environmental undertone of On Deadly ground was a bit cringe worthy. I'm surprised Al Gore didn't hire Seagal after his momentus speech that he gives at the end of the film.

Ultimately though he is good at action films. Under Siege was his best film by far but he has disappeared over the last five years bringing out a load of crap direct to dvd films.

your two best Arnie films then...?

Under Seige is one of my favourite films, helped by the fact that Tommy Lee Jones is in it.

Can someone make a film with Gene Hackman, Jack Nicholson, Steven Seagal and Tommy Lee Jones in it? Can you see a pattern emerging?

And yes, I did watch "Something's got to give" the other night.

You want Cheesetastic?!

Watched it over Crimble, hilariously bad film, as you might have guessed.

I've never seen an Asylum film, but I keep meaning to.

I just love the gall of a company that openly says "we're making derivative tat, and we know it" - and not only that, but doing it so badly that they have a cult following. They're really good at being bad apparently.

I watched Attack Force on Channel 5 last night. Speed 2: Cruise Control is now the second worst movie I've ever watched.

All this talk of action heros and no mention of....

[NickM]

Because they're both crap?

By George, I think you've got it!
