      Not only that, but Georges St-Pierre is regarded as pound-for-pound the best mixed martial artist to ever exist by many mixed martial artist fans. He gained the UFC Welterweight and UFC Middleweight belts and finished his UFC career as champion of those weight divisions, whilst retiring with a professional mixed martial artist record of 26 wins and 2 losses (he avenged his two losses by beating Matt Serra and Matt Hughes in rematches). Steven Seagal is nowhere near Georges St-Pierre's level and Georges deserves so much more.

    You know, when I think about these Segal films I think about good films with aging action stars. The one that comes to mind is The Foreigner with Jackie Chan. As someone who grew up on Jackie Chan movies I wasn't expecting him to do a lot in the film. The writers knew this. He plays a realistically aged man, with a family. He's not got everyone talking about what a badass he is, he's not running around competing with people half his age.
    So when it does come out that he is a bad ass it feels earned, and even when he is in fights he wins them either through preparation, some fortuitous good luck, or escapes them by the skin of his teeth. Yeah, he's able to fight, but like a proper martial artist, he has an awareness of his limitations and knows how to fight to give himself the advantage or run away to continue his large goal. He rarely takes on anyone in a straight fight and when some random muscle does track him down it's almost harrowing because you know he can't win against them all.
    Segal is just living out puerile fantasies, which hey if you can get someone to front lots of money so you can play make believe more power to you I guess, but it's just so sad.

    Here's why so many of Steven's scenes use doubles stand ins or are shot on separate days: he's unbelievably horrificly, awfully, impossibly hard to work with. My Uncle Rick was on the lighting crew of SNL from the late 80s til about 5 years ago. The guest house that came on over the years that he worked there, Steven Seagal was the absolute worst guest host ever to work with. Why? When he showed up on Monday the week prior to airing he did so with his lawyer, and the lawyer informed everyone, from lighting to camera to catering to cast that they were not to speak to Steven, but to speak with him and he would relay to Steven, who was often only a few feet away. He tried to control the lighting aspects of the show, the camera blocking, re-writing lines mid rehearsal, all mind you through his intermediary, the lawyer. He said Al Franken, normally a completely composed cool calm guy was so worked up over Stevens attitude he said he would kill him if he ever set foot on set again.

      That's Seagul's entire life. The guy constantly makes up complete bs about himself to sound cool, but he just comes off as a joke. According to him (at different points of his life) he's been Italian, Japanese, Mongolian, Native American, and Russian. He claims, as a teenager, he hung out with Bruce Lee and James Coburn. And he magically predicted Brandon Lee's death.
      And yet, Sly Stallone told a story about how Seagul was badmouthing Van Damme at a party. Then when Van Damme called him out and challenged him to a fight, Seagul wimped out and ran away.

    7:32 Keeping your muzzle off an ally in a situation like this is actually a thing people do constantly in combat, it's really important. It's just that Steven Seagal is clumsy and lazy, so even the simple act of keeping a loaded gun off a friend looks like something showy and labored.
    Also, folks with tactical training learn to shoot off of both shoulders because it's easier to stay in cover when you can just adjust your firing stance- don't have to peek out as far, just switch the shoulder you're keeping your gun on. It's just again, Seagal is an idiot walrus and he's doing it to look like a Tactical Badass.

      Yes, but you wouldn’t aim your gun towards the ceiling when you’re near a teammate, you’d aim it down at the ground. And the switching shoulders for firing is generally only used when mounting your rifle against a wall, car or other cover. You wouldn’t swap shoulders to turn around to shoot in the open like he did lol.
