Hi guys, well I see many of you posting some sites about Steven Seagal's futures productions. Well here is one. Remember Yakuza was one of his future movies? Well know they are calling it "Into The Sun", with a much larger budget than the last few of his movies:

About Belly of the Beast: I live in Canada, and it is making me mad, because all the major stores (i.e. Best Buy and Future Shop) do not have it, although the release date was a few days ago for this region. Here's what set me over the top: when I asked when the DVD was expected to arrive, they didn't know anything about it - the movie was not on the shipping list.
If there are any Canadians here (preferrably from the Toronto area) could you please tell me if you have found any place that sells Belly of the Beast.
This made me theorize a little bit. You know that fiasco about the mad cow disease and all the arguing between the US/Canada border. I heard that they are putting the trading thing on halt for some of the businesses and slowing down others (especially with the booming Canadian dollar). So it brought me to this point: that the movie industry, especially the shipment of Steven Seagal's movies has gone sideways. It's just a theory, but I think us Canadians are getting sc.rewed (pardon my 'French').
Oh, and one more thing. You all have noticed about the extra weight that the great aikidoka gained in the last few years. Well I don't judge nor am I saying that it's bad or whatever. All I want to say is that being overweight does not improve your health (it's UNhealthy, and you cannot argue that). This might not affect mr. Seagal (I think we should call him Dr. for his great knowledge and mastery) because of his active life style, but I have another theory about the reason. It might be a bit off tangent, but bear with me:
It was reported awhile back, that one of the law suits against Steven Seagal was on his breach of contract to make 4 movies. Seagal lost the case and was practically made to finish the project. In my opinion here, I do not thing that Steven Seagal likes being told and then forced to do something he does not want to do. So here it is: I think that the latest movies (bear in mind I have not watched Belly of the Beast yet so...) are close to the Seagal quality as they once were (before Half Past Dead) just because of the court's ruling. Mr. Seagal probably didn't want to give it his all best, and the stress over all the law suits (the stalking, frauds against Steven, money extortion, threats, need I say more?) took their toll even on the master. And since his latest few movies were not such great successes, Seagal might be a bit desparate (if that's the right word) to make more movies (hence "Out for Money?"). And whatever anyone might say that 'having a co-worker/co-actor being a rap star makes the movie bad' is wrong in every sense. DMX has proven to have done quite decent acting in Exit Wounds, and Ja Rule added that humour side to Half Past Dead along with Kurrupt (who I found just found hilarious since one of my friends acts just like Korrupts character).
So there it is, my yet another theory. Like it or hate it, frankly I don't give a ... (no offense but that's my view and I hope to know what you guys think about some of these topics).
