    of course its retarded, thats what makes it so good!

    when he's in the car and it goes to slow motion and he's spotting the body movement of pedestrians on the sidewalks it reminded me of training day when denzel washington gives ethan hawke pcp while theyre driving around the streets

    LOL!

    Yeah i forgot that.

    "The turn of a head, the tapping of a foot... these are signs blah blah blah blah". These are signs of mundane human movement :D

    He really is the Zen Master :pac:

    Actually that is not true Segal is not ranked higher in the Martial Arts than Chuck Norris

    Segal is a 7th dan in the art of Aikedo

    Norris has practised many martials arts including Karate which he has a 5th dan in,Tangsoodoo a style similar to taekwondo which he has an 8th dan in and he also also trained with the gracies in BJJ brazillian jujitsu.He also is 7 time world champion in full contact karate, segal had never fought professionally

    seagals black belt rating is much harder to achieve than chucks nearest equivalent

    it would be a good fight but never gonna happen

    Wasn't Steven Seagal elevated to the level of a God on earth by his martial art (and no i'm not joking)?

    in all fairness tho thats the producer and directors fault for hamming it up, he is talented in what he does but maybe his role in law enforcement is slightly exaggerated? lol

    Im sure word gets around real quick in a ghetto neighbourhood that steven seagal is a local sherif, but many people are surprised to see him on patrol

    "get um, get um, where he at?" apparently he only lives in the south 2 months a year but has a strong accent

    no, he was pronounced as a reincarnated zen master or something by the dalai lama

    he believes we are all god, part of the same energy. all equal

    he is a strange man but all we can know about his is youtube videos and rumors, he is highly respected in his martial art

    Seagal has aslo trained in JuJitsu thou don't ask me what style or to what level.

    I'm be inclinded to agree - not too many 7th dan aikidoka around. I once saw a middle aged 5thdan Aikido blackbelt - fat, grey middle aged bloke - I've never seen anyone move like the guy - he was about 5 moves ahead of everyone else. Word is Seagal has shown up at Aikido dojo's in France and fought with whoever wants to fight him and just didn't loose

    yes, i heard from 2 people who had worked with him that seagal would lay a challenge for anyone to take him on in anyway, he offered cash too

    this was over 10yrs ago before he got bloated. not sure but perhaps he's the only westerner with his rank. his martial art enables defence against many attackers, the tests for his multiple Dan levels would be extremely hard, multiple trained attackers coming at you head on, not just thugs/bums on the street or drunks in bars.

    Didn't Seagal have some bother with some mafia guys a while back? ( in real life)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,756 ✭✭✭InkSlinger67


    have you met him in real life?

    No but its well known that he is a perv. There was a 'scandal' a good few years ago about him making actresses auditioning for parts in his movie to strip down to the nip and dance in front of him.

    I use inverted commas around the word scandal but what would you expect from a guy who thinks a greasy pony tail is cool!

    Niiiiice!! :cool:

    I watched the first two episodes. Not bad but his "sixth-sense" stuff is a bit corny!

    The dude married Kelly LeBrock, he'll always be a legend! :cool:

    Of course the other problem with this argument is that most disciplines of Aikido apart from Tomiki Aikido(sometimes called sport Aikido) don't hold competitions as its considered contrary to the philosophy of the art.

    Have to say thou - I'd be very curious to see how top level Aikidoka would fare against top level Gracie Jujitsu practitoners. That would be interesting.

    interesting read, he is definitely a complex character, but how much of that article is true? Its a pretty bizzare tale. I think anyone would be scared of the mafia, you cant dodge a tommy gun! If theres a hit on you a black belt dont matter, aint nothin but a thang, thats for sure


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70 ✭✭garyt24


    Thanks for posting this up...Luv STEVEN SEAGAL...

    Ill watch this...

    No offence to Chuck Norris cause hes legend but Steven Seagal is much more of a legend.....Oh Yes its true


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 102 ✭✭PLIIM


    Everyone famous person can get be an honorary police officer in America. Latoya Jackson, Elvis, Jim Carey ... The list goes on.

    Seagal is such an egomaniac its funny watching that show. I wonder does he know that people watch it to get a laugh, rather than to go "Oh, wow, look how cool Seagal is."


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 805 ✭✭✭Irish_polizei


    It turns out hes only a Reserve :rolleyes:
