Speaking of Steven Seagal (an interesting fact)

[Ash]

While we're on the subject of him and his films....I thought I'd point out an interesting fact that a lot of people don't notice.  

Did you ever notice the titles of Seagal's films?

Take the phrase "Steven Seagal is" and put it in front of the title.

For example:

Steven Seagal is....Above the Law

Steven Seagal is....Marked for Death

Steven Seagal is....Hard to Kill

Steven Seagal is....Out for Justice

Steven Seagal is....On Deadly Ground

Steven Seagal is....The Patriot

Steven Seagal is....Half Past Dead

Steven Seagal is....The Glimmer Man

Just an interesting tidbit I thought I'd point out!

Had you noticed this before?

I didn't notice this, but I did notice that almost all of his movies have the same "3 word" title structure: Above-the-Law, Marked-for-Death, Hard-to-Kill, etc.

Two others are:

Steven Seagal is . . . The Fire Down Below (I guess this means that he is a fart)

Steven Seagal is . . . Under Siege

Upcoming movies could be titled:

Steven Seagal is . . . Incredibly Arrogant

Steven Seagal is . . . Never Going to Win an Oscar

Steven Seagal is . . . Headed for a Long "Direct to Video" Career

Steven Seagal is . . . (You fill in the rest of them . . . have fun!)

As far as interesting facts, let's bring this one up: every movie that he's done, he is the "guy who refuses to play by the rules" yet brings results.

Isn't it interesting that the one movie where Segal actually DOES play by the rules, he gets killed before it's halfway over??!?!?!

Those are some good points that you guys have brought up, I hadn't really noticed that before.  Seagal's films are your typical action movie titles, for the most part.  Anything with Justice, Kill, Deadly, Law, Death, Hard, Marked = action movie.  

Steven Seagal is . . . Genghis Khan?  (I've heard that rumor before.)

Steven Seagal is . . . one step away from joining Van Damme and Dolph in an action film.

Steven Seagal is . . . one step away from working with Albert Pyun.. again!

Anyways, I'm not too creative, so I'll let you guys have fun with the titles.

A review of one of his films (I forget which one) called it his latest "three word blunder".

Tough guy who never plays by the rules?  Steven Seagal is - Mitchell!

Steven Seagal is - the guy who had his entire career outshined by his scrumptious daughter in three movies about a giant rocket-powered turtle!

I actually considered a few "Steven Seagal is half past dead" puns while working on the review, but there was no place for them.

Steven Seagal is... loosing hair

Steven Seagal... will be back on "Under Siege 3"

Steven Seagal is... below the standards

[Jim H.]

Someone said they heard Under Siege 3 will feature hot air balloon of good guys VS hot air balloon of terrorists.  Oh joy.

[Brother Ragnarok]

Hey, they stole that from Lexx!
