Hi Orangatuang,

I was referring to the time he was out here making that flick with Kylie Minogue.

During that time he sexually harassed a female journalist.

As for being awesome you guys seem to have a pretty low set of standards.

The fact that he is muscle bound and on drugs and steriods should not make him a role model. Take a good look at him in his movies and you'll see he has to surround himself with midgets so that he looks like a big guy, Kylie Minogue is a little budgie and he barely tops her for height.

Ok ..i didnt even know he had made an movie with her ..poor girl hope she washed her hands after ..what was the movie called ?..

I don’t think this should get into a van damme beating session. I happen to like van damme movies and have most of them on dvd (rather than jcvd - gedit, oh never mind) and i do actually believe that there is talent there and martial art skill and he has fought professionally buts it’s his attitude that i find a little off but I can when Stallone made his comments JCVD was at the height of his fame and it would be very hard not to let it go to your head. His new movies (Near Death, The Shepherd, Hard Corps & JCVD) have shown much improvement in his films and I expect his attitude and long may that continue as I’m sure it makes him a better person now.

Ok then, sorry lads if I came on a bit strong, as I know that you are just having a discussion re: Van Damme versus Steven Seagal..................... let me think about this (for a second) NO CONTEST !!!!!!!!!! Ah you see there I go again - I am a wee bit over protective here as the word awesome should only be used to describe Steven Seagal ONLY - OK. Now you may carry on again - but remember, I am still watching ye ...............................................

I'm not saying Van Damme is better than Seagal, I like them both. They are really uncomparable anyway and do totally different types of martial arts, are of different sizes, ages, wear different clothes, have different religions and are going in different directions with their careers.

Well as the girls are letting us talk about it so who would win Angelina Jolie or Jenifer Anniston?? and should they be rolling in jelly??:)
 
Seagal and van damme are good martial artists in their own way and they have both had their share of personal problems in the past but they managed to put it all behind it them and move on and try to make decent films.Both deserve respect in their own way

bacurrie45, that was possibly the most sensible post yet, couldn't have put it better myself.
 
Some of you Seagal fans are a joke. Seriously you are.

You just cannot accept that there are other action stars out there. Seagal was the bigger man - we all know that. Look at just how fat he is. Oooops, am I allowed to say he is fat on this forum? Or are there too many 'fans' with their heads up Seagal's arse to realise he is an overweight, double chinned obnoxious twat.

Take it you guys thought the recent FHM interview was bull**** then?

Both stars have made **** films, both have egos as wide as barn doors, but trying to even read a two way conversation on this forum is a laughable scene.

I read both the vandammeforum and this one, and on the van damme forum they accept a humane conversation regarding Seagal, it's not unheard of. But some of you guys cannot accept it and never will.

You say that Seagal is a practicing Buddhist. But was he not the one trying to call out Lennox Lewis a few years back.

Honestly, some of you really need to wake up.

Now I accept to be banned, like all the other members that seem to have an opinion on this forum

I agree. Have never understood the attitude some Seagal fans have towards the other action movie stars. We continually get posts like Seagal could beat Chuck Norris, Van Damme, Lundgren, etc. Does it really matter who is best? As long as they release entertaining films i will watch.

Kerouac have you ever watched a Van Damme film? To say that the cast are mainly 'small actors' is stupid. Here are a few examples:
Bloodsport - Bolo Yeung, Forest Whitaker, Donald Gibb
Universal Soldier - Dolph Lundgren
Double Team - Dennis Rodman, Mickey Rourke

Mr. Robertson,

I don't appreciate your referring to my comments as stupid. It appears those around you tolerate your bad behaviour and attitude. I don't.

If you disagree with me by all means say so and we can debate the issue like civil human beings.

Yes, uunfortunately, I have seen Van Damme. (So that sarcastic point of yours is out of the way.)

Look at pictures of Kylie Minogue standing next to Van Damme. She is quite tiny and petite and he is only slightly taller than she is.

Notice in his films how a number of low and high shots are used. These disguise the fact that he is small and makes him appear much larger than he is.

I suggest you watch more of his pics with a critical eye.

Yeah because they really tried to make him look huge next to Dolph Lundgren didn't they...Van Damme doesn't care about his size and anyway, why should his height matter?

I don't see why that is an issue as it's been common practice in Hollywood for many years to make shorter actors look taller and more imposing on screen. It's been happening in movies and television since they both started, so why single out Van Damme?
