Oh LOL … but the funniest thing of this thread is this last page (5th at the moment) where you all, all of a sudden turned your heads, faced the other way, and turned the other cheek to Vern “the buddy”. … what a group … welcome Vern. Enjoy! … and be ready for more surprises from this bunch. It took me longer to read and write for this one thread than it usually takes me to go over the whole forum … so please have some respect.
This is the most popular thread I’ve seen so far, and by far … so many responses in less than a day … stirred up a lot of action … and now it’s finally ‘settled.’

That's certainly true. In terms of the question about dubbing, its because Steven isn't around for last minute editing. He is so busy with his schedule. Vern can probably give you more details on the filmmaking process, but that's the best reason i can figure.Serena said:Besides, the joint ain't been jumping like this in a while, eh?
yudansha said:So, although that the choreography might seem unimpressive doesn’t mean that it is.
The thing about it I don’t get is that most of this so called ‘review’ was a description of the plot with a very brief mention of what could have been improved. The guy probably likes story telling, but he ain’t a very good critic.
“On the positive side, they don't have any car chases or CGI effects”
I rather enjoy these … it adds to the movie experience as that’s what movies are about. It’s fiction … otherwise it’d be a documentary.
The thing that these ‘reviewers’ seem to forget is that it’s a straight to video film and was intended to be one when it was filmed … so what’s the point comparing it to Steven Seagal’s original classics that amazed the world?
Reservoir Dog said:I don't consider myself a hypocrite, although some might. I still don't like your review on this film. I think you have written some good ones, funny ones, abotu Seagal films. I never personally insulted you, I just didn't think your review was one of your better ones.
Im not criticising you, your writing style, or your attacks on Seagal (if you call them attacks, you are simply pointing out what we all know. Seagal needs to lose weight). If that makes me a hypocrite fine, but i havent changed my position on anything.
