Member newgen2005 Posted July 21, 2009 Member Share Posted July 21, 2009 IMO (and in no particular order): -ABOVE THE LAW -HARD TO KILL -MARKED FOR DEATH -OUT FOR JUSTICE -UNDER SEIGE 1 and 2 -EXIT WOUNDS I don't have an opinion on all of his direct-to-video films, as I have not seem them. I think he was in his prime when he did the above films. Agreed, don't bother with the latter ones as they are so bad. Most of the ones I have seen over the last 4 years or so don't even have Seagals own voice, someone is dubbing his lines!!! and worse still he uses doubles for scenes when he is getting out of a car!!! and that ain't no joke!

Member Alex Posted July 22, 2009 Member Share Posted July 22, 2009 segal does not get his voice dubbed, he just has several accents/voice affectations he adapts. most common of these are the 'urban' segal where he talks a little street slang, or the 'southern bluesman' segal where he drawls a little and throws in a bit of 'honeychile' here and there. recently he also added 'russian accent' segal to the mix he has however been relying on stunt doubles and stand ins for the action scenes though, which is really sad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator KUNG FU BOB Posted July 22, 2009 Administrator Share Posted July 22, 2009 segal does not get his voice dubbed, he just has several accents/voice affectations he adapts. No, you're wrong. There are several films that he made where it is OBVIOUS that someone else did the lines in post production for a few of his films. It's not an accent we're talking about here, it's a different dude filling in missing lines. I'd guess Seagal didn't come back after filming to do this himself, so they just hired someone else to try to fill in the missing lines. The voices don't match at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member DiP Posted February 7, 2010 Member Share Posted February 7, 2010 Action Star Steven Seagal wants Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao to be his sparring mate in his next movie The 57-year-old martial arts hero, one of the most bankable stars of the '90s thanks to hit movies like "Out for Justice" (1991) and "Under Siege" (1992) and reported total movie earnings of $923 million worldwide-but whose recent films have become constant flops-made a visit at the Los Angeles home of Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao to implore the latter to do a movie with him. In an interview with reporters present at the meeting, Seagal confessed to being a big fan of the pugilist-currently the toast of the international boxing world. "I've always loved him. I think he is the best boxer in the world right now. I'm just a huge fan." The feeling is mutual apparently. Pacquiao admitted that, like most Filipinos his age, he grew up watching Seagal movies. "I feel so lucky and I'm so happy to [have Segal] visit me here in my house, [as] he is my idol. Actually, I always watch his movies. I 'm speechless when he arrived because...I can't believe [that I] finally met Steven Seagal." The boxer, who is also a budding actor-he last appeared as a masked hero in a movie called "Wapakman"-is excited about the prospects of working with Seagal. "I'm excited just thinking about it, about the movie." If plans push through, Seagal said he is hoping to shoot the movie in the Philippines. And what sort of movie exactly does he have in mind? "I think it would be really nice to do something based on some kind of a heroic true story," he quipped. Before the dinner meeting ended, Seagal gave Pacquiao an autographed poster. The Pacman retaliated by giving the actor an autographed boxing glove. Millions around the world know Steven for his work as an action film superstar in front of the camera, but few realize that he is an accomplished writer, producer, and director as well. When Steven hit the big screen in 1988 with the release of his first film, "Above The Law", its immediate success set the stage for a career that now spans over 20 years and 20 movies and $2 billion in box office revenues. http://nugglepurlnews.blogspot.com/2010/02/action-star-steven-seagal-wants.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Blood Sword Posted February 7, 2010 Member Share Posted February 7, 2010 "whose recent films have become constant flops" No wonder.I like steven seagal but almost 30 movies in last 10 years is far too much. Only in Hong Kong good movies have been produced at factory belt speed. Good luck to steven and manny:wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator One Armed Boxer Posted February 7, 2010 Moderator Share Posted February 7, 2010 Manny has the potential to be a good action/martial arts film star. It's just a matter of how good he can actually act. I`m sure Seagal could give him some great acting lessons...after all, Seagal always shows such an incredible range of emotions!

Member zeus Posted February 7, 2010 Member Share Posted February 7, 2010 i gave up went seagal started using doubles for even the most basic fights.out of the 3 direct to video action stars(van damme ,lungdren,seagal)..he is my least favorite.. at least van damm and lungdren are still releasing decent films zeus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Pacquiao did star in the recent Filipino superhero film WAPAKMAN. Here is the trailer. CQAS2JdHOg8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member ShaOW!linDude Posted April 24, 2011 Member Share Posted April 24, 2011 I am soooo disappointed in the route Seagal's movies have taken. But when he first came on the scene......DUDE! He was amazing!!! My faves: ABOVE THE LAW HARD TO KILL MARKED FOR DEATH OUT FOR JUSTICE THE GLIMMER MAN UNDERSEIGE 1 & 2 (prefer 2 to 1 though) EXIT WOUNDS I've seen and have some of the others but.........I'm scared to bother with the new ones for the most part.

Member Blood Sword Posted April 24, 2011 Member Share Posted April 24, 2011 I watched today "driven to kill" and for western movie it was better than most big budget stuff:bigsmile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member AbeRudder Posted April 24, 2011 Member Share Posted April 24, 2011 Im a fan of seagal's movies, i dont think he is as bad of an actor as everyone makes him out to be and fights are enjoyable to watch imo. Most of his straight to dvd stuff is pretty poor though i will say that Urban Justice ranks as one of my favourite seagal movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Blood Sword Posted April 24, 2011 Member Share Posted April 24, 2011 He is one dimensional but what he does he is very good at.One and only I did not like was chin siu tung directed and "seagal" doing jump kicks.Often stunts are used but at least I want to imagine actor is capable of doing movement.However in that case impossible.Very badly edited too One level of my shelve is owned by Steven:xd: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member mpm74 Posted April 24, 2011 Member Share Posted April 24, 2011 The only movies of his that I really like are Under Siege and Out For Justice. I respect him, as I respect any 90's action star, but some of the straight-to-video stuff has to go... (same can be said about Van Damme) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
