Performances that steal the show...


from the main character.

Matt Dillon in There's Something About Mary

reply

"There's something about Mary" gets referenced a lot
on pop culture websites; must be pretty good.

William Forsythe out did Steven Seagal in the crime
thriller action film "Out for Justice" (1991). So much so,
in fact, Seagal, the main acting star of the project, tried
everything in his power to reduce Forsythe's outstanding
performance as the unhinged antagonist; editing out scenes,
complaining to producers, and just being a genuine donut-hole
that he is typically known for being on the set of any production
he's collaborated on.

Joke's on Seagal, who even though still showed a strong role,
was upstaged despite his petty backstage attempts!

Seagal comes off very poorly for many reasons:

The consistent rumors of female abuse at the hands of a legit martial artist... disgusting beyond words
I suspect he roughed up Kelly LeBrock
He seems like a sexually twisted lunatic

His overall disrespectful demeanor during interviews
This 'toughguy' wont even stand up to shake a fellow guest's hand on the late night shows?!?
Disrespectful...Who does this Seagal asshat think he is?

His movies sucked and he runs around in them like a 9 year old girl

Acting...nope, he can't do it!

I completely despise Seagal, he is a wet bag of garbage

Despite his lukewarm personality, there's still enjoyment to be found in his flicks. That's the optimist in me talking.
Your comment is golden, Shogie, therapeutic even!

Thank you twinA
You always see the brighter side of things and for that I thank you

I had no idea Seagal was such a tool

Total asshole

He got his just deserts while on set of filming for 'Justice.'
He tried to be cool muscle head with one of the stuntman crew,
only to be choked out, rendered unconscious, peed in his pants,
and fallen to the floor like a sack of potatoes.

Sack of potatoes and wet bag of garbage, what else is there?

Excellent👍
He deserved a good pants-peeing chokeout

He's still out there somewhere, looking for Ritchie.

That story may not be true:

Awesome scene!
Probably his best

True story, my buddies and I STILL quote this scene when we meet up and we do the fake Italian/New Yawker accent

'OH, who killed Bobby Lupo!?!'
'Did you kill Bobby Lupo?'
'I'm looking for Richy!'
'Calm down Gino'

So stupid and hilarious😂
