This epside was taped a couple of years ago, after Ticker, I believe.
I really liked this statement by the editor of "Action Film Magazine", when he was discussing the negative comments by the media toward Steven. It reminded me of all of us here.
"The thing about Steven Seagal is, the media has attempted to paint a picture of him, that he is not a well-liked person, that people hate him. The truth of the matter is, he has an extremely loyal following, and that following constitutes enough of an audience that he can still command a multi-million dollar opening."
And this comment by the same person:
"The whole secret behind Seagal's success is, he's a real guy. It's like, he's not from Crypton, he does't have a bat cave laying around somewhere. He doesn't say Shazzam and get struck by lightning. He just trained a lot, and he can beat people up as a result of that training."
'Nough said, eh?
