I have responded to this comment aLOT, so I figured it was easier to pin a response. At a point in this video I point out a line "Sunny and Sandy, I hope" and I say "That's horrible racist". Lol its not... its not racist at all. some places ARE sunny and sandy. This video was roughly 3 months into me starting this channel. and before this channel I had never written a script before. So I was learning how to write, find my style, and just trying to see what worked and what didn't work. So "thats horribly racist" is just poor writing on my part. I think my videos have drastically improved since this one, and over the past several months I have really started to refine my style as a creator. I totally plan on keeping the line in this video though, because I think its important as a creator to grow from your mistakes. Thanks for all the love and support for the channel. Even with this shitty joke, you all even insult me nicely haha. Its a wonderful community we have here and I couldn't ask for better subscribers :)
'Es-cape' not "ec-scape". I love the content outside this little quirk.
@@musicwelikemang haha that one is 31 years in the making. It's harder to fix
It's all good my man. Tiny blimps and I worked my way backward, and yes your later videos are actually much more solid. But then again Seagal is like fine wine and ages better. His later movies are pure comedic gold while his earlier ones at least try and be a movie of sorts
I was one of those that responded negatively to that statement. On second thought I realized whoever wrote that line intended for the audience to think that the villain should come off as a flippant jerk who is culturally insensitive. "Horribly racist" isn't far off.
It was very strange. But whatever i'm over it
My favorite part of this movie was how Gary busey got paid to not be in it.
The only one better was Selma Blair, getting paid for back half of Anger management TV show, because she kept showing up for work on time ready to go, and asked for same out of executive producer Charlie Sheen, he got tired of her wacky requested and canned her in the middle of a 90 episode contact
I miss Jordan
It's kinda like how you don't pay a hooker for sex, you pay her to go away.
Gary busey was awesome in the movie black sheep as Sargent drake savage and it’s funny when he car jacks David Spade lol
Robin was originally gonna be in Batman Returns. They cast Marlon Wayans and after the character was written out the script Marlon still got paid.
What really started to bug me about Seagal, is that his character could NEVER lose a fight. Not even get hit. It shocked me when it happened in Under Siege but, of course, he plays it off like, “I let you hit me so I could show you how tough I am”. Say what you will about JCVD but at least his characters ended up a little bloody most of the time. 😂
That's why John McClain was alot better because you really felt like he was going to lose
Then he slowly became Seagalified as Willis got lazy
It was also hilarious how he has a whole bullet hole shot thru his shoulder and proceeds to climb rope ladders, hang onto a rope off the side of a cliff and some of everything with no treatment or pain at all lmfao
that's because steven is a better fighter
That's cause JCVD is bitchmade, why would Seagal getting beat up be good? It means you suck. Seagal is a literal aikido master, trained by the original masters, he's the only genuine tough guy in Hollywood and could kill Jai White Van Damme and all those posers even now, he could especially annihilate any of these losers mocking him thinking they know anything about fighting from their fake action movies and armchairs.
@@2roxfoxexactly
I'm surprised that he didn't try to do a 3rd one to revive his profile years later. Also, they could put him back on a naval vessel. Lotsa opportunities to sit down on a boat 😁
I think there were talks of a 3rd one but it never went anywhere.
He could bunker down in the command center, sit down and radio terrible one-liners in a husky voice to relatively fit actors who carry the weight of the movie. And by fit I mean they can walk and climb stairs. Total screen time: 12 minutes. Dubbing his voice is optional.
Its goes boat train...airplane!
He’s had a 3rd film in the works and Above the law 2 set for DTV - but I wonder if rights are holding him up.
There's still time, look at Indiana Jones
My favorite all time Stevia Seagull quote, “Nobody beats me in the kitchen.”
Steven Seagal: “Nobody beats me in the kitchen.”
Seeing him now made me realise what he meant was “I can wolf down all these burgers quicker than anyone” 😂
"Nobody beats me in the dining room."
Ryback wasn't shot with a .50 cal, but you are still 100% correct that it should have still fucked him up extremely badly.
"You think that's shot, that's not shot." He explained that :-) But yeah, wasnt a 50 but would have severely messed anyone up.
Judging by what we see when looking down the scope, the lady shooting him was about 10 feet away, so getting shot by that would have really hurt.
Yeah it looks like a .308 or 7.62x51 so it probably should have torn his arm off at the shoulder
They didn't flag the train down. In the times before radios were a thing (and sometimes still used to day in emergencies or as a backup) you would stop a train by placing a row of detonators (also called torpedoes) on the rain, which are sort of really strong firecrackers which will explode when the train runs over them and the crew will hear the bangs and stop. You can see that in the movie. This is an emergency signalling option, so the crew would not ignore it and would stop as fast as possible and they would think the guys waiting down the rail were engineers.
Ooooo that is super interesting. What a crazy way to signal a train lol
@@RedEyeReviews I'm pretty sure it predates radios and other remote signals and unlike putting a man with a flag or a lantern there it does not diminish your crew by one man and it works in the fog too. I did some googling, turns out that in America they are no longer in use today, because moderns train cabins have so much soundproofing that the crew would not hear them anyway. But the film is from 1995 and the train engine is a lot older so it would have worked back then. Also, in America the signal does not mean emergency stop, it means "caution, slow down below 20 mph" presumably so that any crew working on an obstruction or a repair down the track can actually flag the train down if needed without it blasting half a mile past them before it can stop. So the use of them in the film is correct and the fact that the train continued to move and only came to a full stop when the henchmen flagged it down is also correct. A surprisingly good detail for a generic action film about a magic satellite.
I first saw this movie as a kid, obviously I loved it then, I randomly re-watched it yesterday (which is why I got to your video), decided I still actually like the movie a decent amount even though now in retrospect and with an adult brain I can definitely see Seagal's huge ego that would soon be his downfall rearing it's ugly head. The movie benefits a lot from being relatively short, which makes it fast paced (and reduces the instances of Seagal talking to a minimum) and from the score by Basil Poledouris.
@@smolkafilip what a great new thing you taught me today. I've ways loved trains but I had no idea about this style of "communication" . It's super interesting. And the fact that they did it accurately shocks me lol.
So glad you found the channel! But yes I agree with you. This movie is still a very fun watch and they did a really good job with its quality and time length. And it's right before Seagal became completely unlikable. The Golden age
@@RedEyeReviews Apparently they had functional train cars made for the movie and used a real train for the outdoor shots, so they probably just asked one of the real train people who had to work there "hey, how do you stop a train". Imagine how excited all the 80s and 90s B action movie producing people must have been when they found out the answer was explosives.
How do you get the torpedos to stay on the rain?
"Can you pretend to care about China please"
To be fair, that is probably one of the most difficult things I can imagine.
Clarence Bodicker recovered extremely well & his career really took off after Robocop spiked him in the throat,
must have been the hint he needed to stop being a street criminal & become a state criminal.
Mike Ehrmantraut was already moonlighting as a bad guy train driver to bump his cop pay.
And this movie is where he learned his train skills!
Not only that, but Yoshikage Kira (D.C. Douglas) got his start as a Technician #1 before working out how to monologue about his daily routine.
little known creepy fact, steven apparently flirted with the actress who played his niece saying "i had girlfriends as old as you" her response "hahahah mum!!!"
Yeah the Seagal is a creepy bastard. There's a reason I feel ok making fun of him week after week lol.
I got her confused with Ericka Eleniak from the first movie. What made it creepier is that this actress was about 16/17 at the time of filming. Steven apparently waited until she was alone to give her a "theraputic massage" of her chest. When he suggested she come back to his trailer for more "treatment" she said she was only 16/17. He then said, "In some countries that's old enough to get married." Or perhaps it was the line you provide. It was something along those lines. It was then that she called for her Mother and apparently her Mother never let her out of her sight after that.
btw that actress is young katherine heigl which most people know from "greys anatomy"
All lies made up by Reddit/any geek forum incels
@@ArtVandelayOfficial is that why she talks about it on talk shows and late shows
12:22 Pretty sure the reason Jonathan Banks was thrilled to die is that he probably finally finished his scenes, collect the paycheck and never have to work with Seagal ever again.
I would watch entire movies of you doing Steven's voice-over.
Just for the line 'This is your captor speaking', this movie justifies its existence. Seagal is the creepiest film/TV Dad since Bill Cosby.
Lol yeah he is a creepy dad for sure.
Luckily for the girl, he was just uncle Casey here. Wait... not any better.
It’s so weird seeing Segal walk and not waddle.
Lol right?!
I found this channel today. So glad I did, I have not laughed this hard in a long time.
Thank you so much!
Fun fact. The actor who plays the primary antagonist has an uncredited role as 'villain' in the first Under Siege.
Jimmy Kimmel interview - Catherine Heigl on Steven's most memorable conversation with her during the shoot
The last day of the shoot, again, I had just turned 16 on this movie. He said "Catey, I've got girlfriends your age" I said "Isn't that illegal?" he said, "They don't seem to mind." I said "MOOOOOOM"
Stevie baby was 43 at the time
He’s a monster, I don’t know how he was never investigated and sent to prison for saying that alone. He’s so very clearly a predator and it’s terrifying that he was never punished for the behaviour he shows to women.
You noted that he was wearing a girdle for this movie. I think he was NOT wearing it in the end at the cemetery, his stomach was poking out a little bit. XD
Haha maybe it broke
The badguy Dane is basically a life action version of Sideshow Bob. Looks like him and behaves as theatrically as him. The actor totally sells this movie. I love "Under Siege 2"
Ryback always kills the guys in like one hit. Penn was supposed to be the boss fight, like in a video game. I thought it was funny how they build Penn up to be a bad ass, and then he gets destroyed by Seagal.
Some of this was filmed back then near my hometown in Pennsylvania.
It was on the local news and stuff.
Seagal was getting free food all over the place
hahahahaha
that explains a lot...
The train conductor is Jonathan Banks, who plays Michael Ehrmantraut in Better Call Saul.
& the hijacker is a lot like Anthony Bourdain from parts unknown
Holy smokes...the evil conductor is Mike from Breaking Bad.
It blew me away when I rewatched it last week!
I checked it up on IMDB, I didn't believe it when I saw him
The main henchman from Hard to Kill is Hank
@@jonathancampbell5231 gotta start somewhere lol
Hes also a bad guy in Beverly Hills Cop
when i watched this film as a teenager, I thought it was cool. Now I will still watch it because it is "guilty pleasure"
Same...except for me, it was elementary school (I liked trains)
Same, I know its not supposed to be a "good" movie, but I love it anyway!
As a German, I had to re-play the section when the villain speaks German, because I did not realize that it was. What he is saying is "Mach sicher, dass es gut gewaschen ist" (which means: make sure that it (the money) is properly laundered). The German sentence is not even correct, but hey, so is Seagals ultra fake hair.
Also Seagal coming out of a fridge is the 100% sure fat joke, but you let him off too easy. As easy as he is on carbs, I guess.
Hahaha God damn it. The fridge joke is too good
I had a friend that rewatched the Seagal death in Executive Decision on slow mo dozens of times when I was a kid. Best surprising movie death of the 90s.
I'm a little late to the party but I have to talk about the General's uniform at 5:13. His uniform is actually 100% accurate to what an Air Force Blues uniform would look like. The ribbon rack, name on the right side of his chest, U.S Lapel on the collar is just how we wear it in the AF. That's great attention to detail and worth the praise, not many movies get military uniforms correct.
Oh nice added detail! Thank you.
One of the greatest actors of his generation, so much range ! He plays such a different guy in every movie!
Lol 😂
You know you're dealing with a badass when they can make explosives in a room containing a bendy straw some rubber bands, and condensation from the windows.
06:46 holy sh*t thats Mike from Breaking Bad
Right?!?! As B rated bad guy
The curly haired villain, played by Eric Bogosian, is in loads of things, particularly Law & Order Criminal Intent, but also TV shows like Scrubs, Billions, and Succession
He's great at everything, all the time, everywhere.....
I love Under Siege 2. Also love this subgenre of UA-camrs watching Seagal movies.
Great review, many laughs!
The way Willy Wonka typed in the codes 😅😂
So glad you enjoyed it! Yeah he just smacks his hands all over it haha
@@RedEyeReviews
I liked it, entertaining dude.
Seagal was funny as an action hero. I know he really did train in whatever art it was. But it was always funny just seeing him walk with hands down, then let the stunt guy throw punches that he push away, and then does like one move to end them. He is in Russia now.
Isn't that guy who is happy to die head on in a train colission the actor who plays mike ehrmantraut in breaking bad? I think this actor was notorious for playing bad guys. Think he even played in Beverly Hills Cop a bad guy. Also the line "nobody kills me in a kitchen" is pretty rad.
Johnathan Banks. I knew him from the TV show Wiseguy originally.
He also was in the comedy Airplane.
He wasnt bad guy in Beverly hills cop but Alex partner.
Wait a min….Seal Team Capt. He was a Chief in the first movie, now he’s a Capt. Holy shit that was a serious promotion jump. Chief (Chief Petty Officer E-7) to an Full bird in the Navy which is an equivalent to a Col in Marine Corps/Army O-6 is quite impressive 🤔. Not saying this isn’t possible but Highly suspect 😂…..
I mean, he did save an entire ship, foil a plot to sell nuclear weapons, and kill a bunch of ex-CIA and Navy traitors, all in the same night.
@@jonathancampbell5231 yeah not to mention saving Hawaii from a few nuclear strikes I believe.
He was actually the Captain's personal bodyguard placed on the ship as a chief. Thats how he was initially overlooked by the baddies who had scouted who would be on the ship
A young Katherine Heigl is what makes this movie Fire!!
What about the train stewardess?
Poor, deluded Steven Seagal thinking that Casey Ryback is on the level of awesome as James Dalton
*At **9:50** it says "BANC DE SUISSE" on the screen, I assume the movie folks think "BANC" is French for "BANK"??? Where it should be "Banque" in proper French.*
*Ridiculous mistake.*
Hahaha oops
Here’s a interesting casting fact no one knows: voice actor DC Douglas Wesker from Resident Evil is in this movie along with Breaking Bad’s Johnathan Banks as the bald guy riding the train.
This was definitely my favourite Seagal movie. Mainly because I enjoyed Eric Bogosian's performance (aka Willy Wonka) and it was the first of his movies I saw at the cinema.
Fun Fact: Jeff Goldblum was slated for the role of the villain before it was given to Eric!
That would have been amazing.
He reminds me of Goldblum a bit. Just how he talks I think
This entry in the Trivia section of the movie's iMDB site is both terrifying and hilarious: "In 2014, Steven Seagal announced in an interview with the Big Issue UK magazine that he is working on the 3rd "Under Siege" film."
Oh God no lol
I bet it takes place in a restaurant, so he literally doesn't have to leave the kitchen and gets to sample all the dishes on the menu in between penguin-walking from door to door and casually dispatching the bad guys who come over by one to get smacked.
@@BoraHorzaGobuchul Him, walking? His body double, you mean.
The 50 caliber rifle shot merely grazed Casey F’n Ryback because of his reflexes.
The guy with one good eye might have heard Seagal, didn't have to see him.
the cut-ins are absolute art, bravo.
thank you!
This is my favorite S.S. movie and this is my favorite review of it. That miniatures train crash makes me crack up every time.
One of the bad guys is Mike from Breaking Bad / Better Call Saul! I swear! :D
i believe you are correct!
7.62, not 50 cal. Still would have taken his arm off though.
Calling the "sunny and sandy, I hope!" line "horribly racist" is a bit of a stretch -- and I say this as someone who's pretty progressive and who was also born in a sunny and sandy place. If someone hits me up while I'm visiting back home and mentions he hopes it's sunny and sandy, I couldn't even imagine getting offended at that.
I know you mean well but that bit came across as a little white guilt-ish.
I don't mean to shit on you though, loving this series! Under Siege 2 was my favorite Steven Seagal movie as a kid and even back then it was clearly more on the cheaper side compared to similar action flick 😂😂
Nope. i totally agree. if you scroll through this videos comments, I have answered this one ALOT lol. I was still finding my style at this time, and I think my writing has improved alot since this video came out.
But thank you for the support! so glad you are enjoying the series!
@@RedEyeReviews man, that’s one honest and solid response. You were just finding your style so things will be off here and there, well done. I just sub’d bc I did enjoy the rest of the jokes
@@RedEyeReviews Your reviews are great, man. I'm going through ALL of them!
Thank you! I just want to make people laugh and forget about their worries for a little bit. Movies have a great way of doing that. :) and I've loved making these videos.
Thanks for your support :)
Thank you so much! So glad you are enjoying them :)
Love this Seagal channel. Keep 'em rolling.
Thank you friend
Dude wearing a black suit falls under a train,then onto a cliff,then drives an old dirty pickup and shows up to the final scene with a imaculate,not a single grain of dirt black suit.
Legendary.
How did he send a message to the pager bomb when the phone lines were cut? Certainly couldn't do it with that Apple Newton 120 Messagepad. Also, as I recall it didn't have a built in modem. That was an external addon.
Checkout Seagal's lightning fast moves in the end kitchen fight.
He had the add-on. It was hooked up. It took it a while in the movie to get through.
"Nope, this guy's gonna upstage me" cracked me up :)
The whole “there’s no way to shut that off” segment would’ve actually been gold if it didn’t magically take out the satellite earthquake machine
So Steven failed in his mission the train still crashed, and rofl at shooting the radio somehow blowing up a satellite in space
That’s not what happened. He shot the laptop which killed the program that created the ghost satellites, the military then locked onto the satellite and blew it up using the self destruct code.
I went to school with the girl who played the bartender on the train. Sandra Taylor.
Great video with one caveat. As someone who lived in Jordan for 3 years and has been all over the Middle East I’m not sure why suggesting that the ME is sunny and sandy is “racist”. I can vouch for the existence of lots of sun and sand. It’s not all there is to be sure but that was a silly thing to say.
Oh I agree. I have improved my writing style alot since this video
I'm sure people in Arizona understand
This channel is criminally under-rated.
ever since I saw the photo of Tate and Seagal, I think: "if it is not the fact that Tate and Seagal don't need more attention than they deserved, I think an Under Siege 3 with 'Seagal breaking Tate out of Romania and figthing against the Matrix' would have been so-bad-thats-good film classic"
12:15
This part when the dude being thrilled about being killed had me dying of laughter, I never realized it untill you put it in slow-mo.
he was happy because he knew that he was going to paradise with 1000 forever virgin wives awaiting him there..
That's Jonathan Banks, Mike from Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul!
broke a fart on that titanic refernce. keep it up man!
Hahaha that is a great saying. Broke a Fart. Lol. Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it.
It wasn't mace it was supposed to be pepper spray. And that sniper rifle was definitely not a 50. Cal.
So I don't know much about either haha. I see very large gun and think "ummm Call of Duty?...50 cal" so my apologies lol.
What type of gun do you think it is? I think someone mentioned it could be an airsoft gun...which I don't know if those were a big thing back in 95
I am blind with my right eye but I sometimes hear and can even see stuff that is on my right side with the side view of my left eye so... It's kinda accurate that the one eye man turns that way... Kinda.
Well damn. I can't argue that lol
OMG!!!! "He's the best there is!"🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just discovered your channel, it’s awesome!
I really appreciate it!
With Seagal everything is in reverse . The older his movies, the higher the budget is ,they have better the CGI , and he has less hair .It's a reversed career.
Benjamin Button of careers
@@RedEyeReviews Good one. It would be sad if he wasn't such a prick, . (Stephen i mean, Benjamin was ok ;)
@@RedEyeReviews P.S. Have you read (or heard about) Seagal's book 'the way of the shadow wolves ' ? That's has so many righwing conspiracies in it, it makes Qanon blush 😅.But anyway , maybe that's nice addition for your Seagal series. Take care mate.
@@spiritualanarchist8162 I own it! Lol but I need to read it still
@@RedEyeReviews Wow, actually owning that book is what i call commitment to your channel ..Thank you for your service ! I hope you manage to read it, so i can see your video on it one day. stay sane. 😉
This is better than space ice!!! New fan!
One part I always found particularly amusing was when the mercenaries fanboy out when they find out that thee Casey f'ing Ryback on on the train.
Since SEALs would typically do top secret missions, I can't really see how Ryback's name instantly would be floating around your average mercenary's mind.
Haha I love that part too. I'm fairly confident Seagal wrote into his contract he would only do the movie if his character name gets said at least 30 times. This movie is in my top 3 Seagal movies easily.
@@RedEyeReviews Oh without a doubt, this is one my go-to Seagal movies.
I also noticed that in almost all Seagal films, it seems that Seagal is playing on "easy difficulty". He rarely gets hit, shot, or generally knocked down by any foe.
Compare it to a Die Hard movie where Bruce Willis' character is getting knocked all over the place.
In general story-telling I actually like my heroes to be on the weaker side and must 'rise to the challenge' to survive the hardships.
But Under Siege 2 is still alot of stupid fun... I love it.
@@RocKnight11 haha that is such a true statement. He is playing Minecraft on Creative. But yes I love an underdog hero but every so often you want a stupid untouchable God interacting with mortals. Like the Fast And Furious universe
You'd be surprised what enemy combatants can learn. Organisations like Al'Qaeda have dossiers on former SF and SOF and currently active as well.
It's why they go to such lengths to blur out faces and obfuscate names in documentaries and things. Mercenaries also tend to know the operators in the game, especially as many who may not have been in the actual army will have done seminars and training with former operators and instructors or they will have worked with PMC who take training from former operators.
I was under the impression he trained them.
Your voice over is way better than most Mystery Science Theater 3000 episodes.
😊
I was disappointed when Brenda Bakke's character died early on. She was super-hot back in the day. Well, I thought so at least...
Might have to watch this movie again. Haven't seen it in a really long time.
I've got a lot of misplaced wanks I'm not proud of from my teenage years but upon checking her out again this isn't one of them. She was smoking
Never stop never stopping my friend, these are hilarious.
Saw the pinned comment after I wrote.
Great video and great series! 😂
I love how Red Eye is developing his SStheven SeaGull accent in this episode !!! Yeah
Adding a comment to help the algorithm haha. Subbed! Enjoying the vids
You're right. That isn't how mace works. Which is why Penn (the gray-haired guy) says it's actually pepper spray. As to whether pepper spray can be gotten used to in the manner he describes, I'm not sure.
I always interpreted it as him being a serial rapist, since he seemingly comes to the nerve grip she gives him later. He's built up an immunity to two different rape defenses. Even the rapist from Pulp Fiction looked creeped out by it.
Guangzhou is a chemical weapons plant masquerading as a fertilizer plant. We know this. The Chinese know that we know. But we make-believe that we don't know and the Chinese make-believe that they believe that we don't know, but know that we know. Always loved that quote for some reason Lol
Lol right?! that guy actually delivers it pretty well too.
@@RedEyeReviews He's a great actor. The villians are what made the Under Seige movies IMO. Think he was on CSI too
@@brianwilliams4467 oh agreed. Tommy Lee Jones was so good in the first one.
It's where the Chinese invented Covid-19
@@davidsumner7604 the Taliban says get the fuck outta Afghanistan
9:46- i thought that place was burnt ..we should see ashes everywhere ...or is it a different cabin ?
Had to look this up cuz i wasn't sure at first. But the guy driving the train at 6:43 is Jonathan Banks who plays Mike in Breaking Bad
"Fuck..no..not you too" actually killed me.
Supposedly, Seagal agreed to do Under Siege 2 only after the studio agreed to let him direct his next movie...which was "On Deadly Ground".
@3:29 hilarious. Kroger brand Willy Wonka and his stoned Oompa Loompa. With the movie clip to drive home the point. Gold
Lol thanks friend
His niece THOUGHT she had mace. She actually had pepper spray. And that's what the guy told her. He sprayed it on his tongue because he's so used to being sprayed with it from trainings. That the only effect it has on him anymore is to clear the sinuses.
The bad guy sounds like Anthony Bourdain
I like your understated sense of humor and delivery.
Seagal made some decent choreographed fights in the 90s (before everyone knew Aikido is absolute nonsense) but it really grates on me how his character are never in peril. If you look at Stallone, Arnold, Bruce Willis, Van Damme, Kurt Russell, etc most of their roles (with the exception of playing cyborgs/robots) they have an arc where they're really getting their ass kicked for a while. Seagal was always too smug arrogant and pleased with himself to ever have his "skills" challenged. It was OK up until Under Siege, but after that he just comes across as a whispering chump with a god-complex. All the bad guys seem to play it for laughs though which is awesome, I think you'd need a sense of humour to be around such a wooden, one dimensional person for too long though.
The director of Cloverfield and The Batman co-wrote this? Now I'm tempted to watch it. I've seen Freejack and The Quiet Earth, but not Under Siege 2 or Young Guns 2.
The end scene at the cemetery makes as much sense as the rest of the plot. He went on a train to the funeral so all of his luggage must have been destroyed yet he had another uniform with full ribbons ready to go. I suppose a just asked one of the hundreds of fake valour seals out there if he could borrow their uniform :) Love your work, thanks for posting these videos!
"A SEAL team captain"???
Even if that were a thing, Zweiback is enlisted.
“Hello, my name is Paul Carney, and I was once a Steven Seagal fan” 😔

Fun Fact! The guy who says, “That’s why they call it space,” was the voice of Lexington on the tv show Gargoyles! 👹
I wasn't in this movie either; where's my $750,000? Actors have hard jobs, and not saying I could do it, but I bet I could NOT act in a movie just as well as Gary Busey could.
Put me on this list as well please.
6:30 is that mike erhmantraut?
Palm Pilot? I'll have you know, good sir, that is a Newton Messagepad
Under siege 2 Dark territory is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME and STUNNINGLY AMAZING sequel
Classic Steven seagal action. Steven Seagal is back as Casey Ryback a cook with a recipe for excitement
Couldn't agree more!
I only saw the movies in german and his voice isnt as cringe when he tries to be cool...or it was just me
@@A_Toastonawhiteplate Not just you, also saw it in German as a teenager. I loved it and it's still a guilty pleasure. His voice sounds cringe in any language, I'd guess. I'd be very interested to hear people from other countries comment on whether or not his dubbing is cool elsewhere.
Recipe for excrement, you mean
It's so wild to see Johnathan Banks star in this film- years and years before Breaking Bad
Stealing a car is more complicated than crossing a couple wires. The steering column needs to be unlocked as well. I wonder how many people got caught because they learned from a movie.
And stealing a train is twice as difficult as portrayed
New Zealand director Geoff Murphy did a great deal of the 2nd Unit filming on Lord of the Rings, and directed _The Quiet Earth,_ one of the best sci fi movies of all time.
Do you know all the movie quotes before you you put them in or do you search them then add them?
I will watch the movie and timestamp various scenes and lines I like. Then while writing the script I will put the timestamps where it seems natural. And then edit the clips after. Alot of times while editing I will think of some other movie or show clip to put in. So it's usually on the fly
@@RedEyeReviews is the whole thing a script or do you improv some bits
@Ferg Bell probably 85% script and then I improv as I watch clips and things.
@@RedEyeReviews nice, what gear do you use to record your voice ?
