Seagal’s wikipedia page reads like he’s in the running for biggest shitbag actor award.
Emphasis added.
Hey man, he sometimes stands up in his latest movies.
SFX have gotten so good that you can barely hear the grunting.
Wouldn't even have to use SFX to be convincing. Just dump a few hundred pounds of dog shit on a little trolley, put a stupid toupee on top, and wheel it around slowly on some rope. Nobody would tell the difference.
I'm trying to imagine this, but my mind keeps showing me Steven Seagal...
They really are good at painting out wire work in movies these days.
I hope that's not the case. One example in this video someone posted the other day, he's doing a sex scene sat down and fully clothed. He's basically a marionette at this point.
VFX at its limits

Corrected method of movement.
Seagal’s wikipedia page reads like he’s in the slow shuffling walk for biggest shitbag "actor" award.
Have you seen him lately? He hasn’t run for anything in a long time. It’s actually funny if you watch his later movies, he’s mostly sitting down through the whole thing.
What the hell happened to him? Wasn't he like a martial arts guy for real in the 80s?
He was never as great a martial artist as he thought he was (just ask Gene LeBell), but he at least used to be... you know... mobile.
He got old. And soft. And round.

The last movie I saw with him was Under Siege after release. Left disappointed. Far more of a Jackie Chan/Tony Jaa kind of martial action films.
The best Steven Seagal movie I've ever seen, really the only good one, was Executive Decision.
Like other Steven Seagal movies, you see he's in it, and you groan and think, "this is going to suck." Then 20 minutes into the movie he's killed off, and you can relax and enjoy the rest.

Under Siege was only worth watching, just to see Erika Eleniak.

Behind the bastards (podcast) had a good two part episode on him.

How has this rancid bratwurst not ended up in the Trump administration by this point?
And give up his position in Putin's administration? No way.
Eh, Putin's in charge of both anyway, so there's not much difference.

Maybe he doesn't like kids 🤷♀️
He's too busy attending Putin's parades, which is something he literally does

Hey I'm going you need you to be more respectful of bratwursts here.
Every time you think this timeline can't get any more nonsensical and inane, it throws a "Steven Seagal is a gun runner for Russia" curve ball at you.

Anyone got a link to that video where he's fighting and older, but all of his opponents are falling down with barely any effort? It wasn't a movie but a dojo seeing from what I remember.
No, the one I remember seeing he's all fat and bloated and stationary in a white gui. Opponents are running at him and he's barely doing anything, but the people running at him are obviously taking a fall. Maybe I imagined it all.

My first aikido masters were former students of Sensei Fat. They refused to speak of it. He must have been a real piece of work, even then.

Why would Seagal need weapons?
To defend the VantaBlack he's spraying on his head

The OG gravey seal.
Why can't we (as in civil society) drone bomb steven seagal?
Fat vampire
The traitor and sack of shit should be on the frontlines.
Imagine being such a shitty dictator that you have to hang out with the likes of 2020s Steve Seagal 😂
Why would Putin care about this guy at all? Wouldn't it be worse for his image?
The US has a long and storied history of producing high profile weirdos that get trapped in a moment of international policy, like a mosquito in amber, and just keep hanging out with a foreign government we re-designated as The Enemy decades ago.
Seagal has Putin. Dennis Rodman was tight with Kim Jung il. Johnny Depp is good friends with Mohammad bin Salman. Gal Gadot is a perennial Netanyahu gadfly. Rob Schneider campaigned for Victor Orban. Oliver Stone and Robert Redford still reps Fidel Castro.
If you go into the back pages of US History, you'll find moments when US officials attempted a thaw or brokered some kind of cooperative pact with a modern enemy nation. And typically, the State Department would send along an affable oaf or enthusiastic wanna-be celeb ambassador to make nice with the foreign head of state.
And then US policy changes, but the celebs don't get the memo.
