Steven Seagal has been; -Gravy Seals : Meal Team 6 operator -Federal Burger Investigation officer -ex US Green Buffet -Kentucky Fighter Chicken trainer -Creamy Ice Agency special agent -United States McDonald Corps veteran
What, you mean you're *not* supposed to daintily pick it up by the bottom of the stocks and try not to touch it to any other point of your body while firing it?
Smh wuss. You think you know pain? These guys made it through multiple Seagal films. You’re complaining about a bullet to the shoulder to men that have survived point blank frags.
From the trivia page of this movie on IMDB: "Steven Seagal had two crew members to help him during the most physical scenes, like walking or getting up of a chair. Another member of the cast carried an oxygen balloon for Seagal, for him to use after scenes in which he had to do some effort like, you know, interacting with his colleagues. Shooting had to be stopped many times whenever Seagal demanded food. Director Olen Ray said that one time, when he talked to Seagal and he didn't answered, he thought Seagal had died, because he wasn't moving and his dark sunglasses blocked his eyes. He had vomited the food and was laying still over the table, and had to be reanimated."
If that's accurate, it sounds like he's developed a serious eating disorder. I'd hope he would get help for it, but from what I hear he got so big from eating his own ego.
IMDB trivia page: "Some of the dialogue was improvised and based on reaction the actors had at the moment. One example is when actress Charlene Amoia, who plays whats-her-name, asks Steven Seagal if he was as good as they said he was, "they" meaning the food caterers who worked on the set and had to work around the clock to provide food for Seagal. Director Olen Ray, who had the cameras on, liked the line and added it to his picture, saying "Steven, God bless his enlarged heart, answered 'every once in a while', taking it kindly, and worked well in the picture"."
I feel SO sorry for Dale Dye. He's a decorated Marine Corps veteran. He served for 20 years, and, then went on to be a technical advisor on some of the best war movies ever made. He played Col. Sink in "Band of Brothers", for christ's sake, now, he's reduced to this drek.
He was in "Platoon", "Born On The Fourth Of July", "Casualties of War", among A LOT of others. He's even been in Seagal movies before, appearing in, "Under Siege", and, "Under Siege 2".
No, that goes Richard Marcinko, my dude actually wrote fanfics about himself in the field. There's even a featured a game about him, called Rogue Warrior published by Bethesda. Funfact, it is notorious for dropping the most slurs and f-bombs, even the ending ost was a slur fest
@@PedroLiftss it’s only comments on this channel are arguments to you also if you look, im tellin ya, that sweet internet troll nectar calls their name daily
I was army reserve 93 01. In 98 or 99 a few of our guys were on a Seagal movie set in uniform just for background actors for one day. They said Seagal was an absolute full blown jerk. Lol that's my 2 cents hope yall enjoyed.
"Steven Seagal is the most authentic, hardworking, and charismatic actor in the world whose name instills fear and respect in the hearts of the toughest men in the world." - Steven Seagal
That's because Seagal is so bad ass that any weapon he fires automatically matches his speaking voice. It's not actually the Hollywood "silencer" sound, it's the gun mimicking his lines. The fact that he doesn't win an Oscar every year is an absolute travesty.
Seagal is literally trapped in the tough guy action hero genre professionally and mentally. He hasn't progressed or branched out in 30 years. Glad he's become a meme
The way he holds his gun and aims is hilarious. It's like a live action version of Goldeneye or Nightfire where you aim the gun but don't move your body.
The old guy is actually still alive. Not only that but he's a decorated combat vet (Captain in Marines with bunch of awards). His name is Dale Dye and he's 77, so just 7 years older than Seagal. He looks way older because despite his name he doesn't dye his hair.
@@Abensberg it happens . Aldo ray was an actor(1950s-60s) and former navy frogman ,who’s career went down and he did shitty movies to pay hospital bills including background parts in porn films. Maybe same kinda thing happened to dye
The old Colonel is Dale Dye. He is a decorated Marine veteran from Vietnam. He was what is considered a "Mustang" in the Marine Corp. He climbed the ranks of the enlistment to Master Sergeant and then was appointed to be a warrant officer. When he retired in 1984 he was a Captian. Mustang officers are the most respected of Officer is the Marine Corp. They chewed the same ground as the normal grunts. He is a Bronze Star winner with Valor. He definitely is old at 78 to play this part, but he has earned that. He has been in a ton of Military movies. His goal when he joined Hollywood was to make war movies more realistic. One of his first films, I think it was his first was Platoon. He also worked in Saving Private Ryan and Band of Brothers, amongst several others. He has definitely helped some films become very realistic. Unfortunately, nothing he can do for this movie. I am sure no one listened to him and he was there for the check. Not a bad plan at 78.
they are right that he should be higher rank than COLONEL at his age.... I get he likely wouldn't want a title he never received in real-life, but still
@Chris Buttonshaw he wasn't even a colonal, he was a captain. And yes, he's far too old to be a colonel, but the 4 people who watch this movie aren't likely to mind.
The Colonel is portrayed by Dale Dye, who is a certified badass combat vet. He made Captain before "retiring" from the Marines and continued to serve as a correspondant in multiple wars afterwards. His company Warrior Inc. was founded to work with Hollywood films to ensure athenticity for portrayals of combat, though as you can see Segal would hear none of it for this film.
How do they not know Dale freaking Dye. It's sad to see him ridiculed like that. It is funny though they constantly call Segal a fat ass while the dude rests his arm on his gut 😆
@@WikedEvo This, completely. Dale Dye is a legend, and Seagal would be lucky to be a quarter as good of a combatant as Dye was. I believe he has since passed, but he was the genuine article. He’s also in PLATOON, amongst a lot of other things.
I’m not huge into movies so I did not know about Mr. Dye but as fellow Marine it does annoy me that these guys are making fun of him due to his age and looking him up he served in the same unit I was at 2nd BLT 1st Marines.
Imagine being hired as a stunt double and you ask what stunts you'll be performing. You're excited that you can add more to your resume. And then you find out....
The "old guy's" name is Dale Dye. He's 77 years old and still alive. He's a decorated Marine veteran of Vietnam and often serves as technical advisor on tons of films many of which he's offered acting roles. Oliver Stone uses him all the time. He was in Platoon, Born on the 4th of July and Heaven and Earth as well as Outbreak, Casualties of War, Saving Private Ryan, and arguably Steven Segal's best film, Under Siege.
Also I'm not a defector of the Greatest Country on Earth. He sold his sole to the devil and the devil gave it to Mel Gibson, who traded it to Mickey Rouke, then Harvey Wienstein who traded it to the Island Boys.
I just love the fact that they had to use a stunt double to walk up stairs. Like, Stevie Seagull's laziness and risk of heart attack at even the slightest physical exertion made this a good call on the part of the producers. In fact, SteSeag probably insisted on it, but sold it not as "I'm too lazy to walk up stairs" but rather that he has some mysterious, unmentioned before that point heart condition that only badasses suffer from that could kill him if his heart rate goes up. What a joke that guy is! A living meme.
They do make ear protection that lower loud sounds and increase quiet sounds. It's meant so that your shooting doesn't blow out your ears but you can hear movement etc. Also can be used for comms.
Show Lt. Col. some damn respect. He's as American as it gets. He sailed here on the Mayflower; fought beside Andrew Jackson in the War of 1812, and stormed the beaches of Normandy. All this as the swansong to his illustrious career in the Roman 5th Legion.
These guys are making fun of a commanding officer and his age. They make no sense the man did a good job acting the part and didn't make a fool out of himself like they seem to be doing at times. These are supposed to be grown men acting like teenagers.
@@garybell4207 100% your Steven Seagal, also he did kinda do that shit when he hosted snl. Everyone as host normally makes fun of themselves. Steven wouldn't shut up about how tuff he is amd straight up staged a fight. So dumb
This guy never ceases to amaze me with the ever changing virtual myriad of intricate roles he takes on to make these movies every bit as good as they are! I mean just the shape he gets in to sit in a chair with all that gear on the entire movie, while masterfully building the tension in his colon just blows my undisciplined mind! His dedication to the craft is nothing short of awe inspiring.
I firmly believe this movie is a visual representation of how Steven actually views himself in the context of real life. To be clear when I was in infantry school at Ft.Benning in 2004 my battle buddy was this great guy named Chauncey Jinx. While he would go on to become one of my closet friends, his lack of overall common sense and intellect was substantial enough that he stood out, in a company of 100+ guys who picked an MOS in the Army that generally attracts those types of people as you can choose the 11B MOS with a measily ASVAB score of 35. For some contrast I’m confident my cat would score a 45. Anyway, good ol Jinx, who at one point I had to explain the many reasons why we, as infantrymen were guaranteed to deploy which came as genuine shock to him, is millions of times more deadly of a combatant than Segal on his best day living in his fantasy world .
These are the most hysterically accurate comments I've read ina while. Touche gents. Also I was a grunt Marine and fully understand and agree with what's said here. I grew up loving seagal movies, now I just wonder wtf has happened.
I also love how instead of securing the structure he’s in with his wounded teammate, taking the initiative and developing a feasible route of egress he just plops down and has a good ol heart to heart like they’re not in the middle of a hostile AO with no friendly support units. I’m sure Dale Dye had plenty of input but was shut down by “master marksman CIA SAD Operator trainer” Sansei Sugartits Segal.
Love how the stunt double is also clearly like, a physically fit man with slightly thick sleeves on because Steven doesn't want to admit he's a walrus but they also had to realize they couldn't just let that guy go on set without even a little padding.
I have a little theory about this movie -nobody in this movie knew they were in a Seagal movie under the production, it was not until later in the editing they decided to put Seagal in it.
Dale Dye was in fact a Marine in Vietnam from 1965-1970, earning a Bronze Star and 3 Purple Hearts in 31 major combat operations if you believe his bio. He was born in 1944, so in 2016 when this movie was released he was ~72, and he is still alive today at ~78.
@@davidgrunewald7194 Irrelevant. The Queen is immortal. We all know she is going to outlive all her idiotic children and probably still in business in the 22nd Century. Seriously, the Queen is probably way healthier than Seagal despite being older. Have you seen him speak? Motherfucker is out of his breath even before he finish a goddamn sentence.
I worked (in film) with both Seagal and the 'really old guy'. The 'old guy' is Dale Dye, US Marine and combat veteran. Captain Dale Dye is awesome. It was truly a privilege to work with him. Seagal is at the opposite end of the spectrum and I found him a thorough disappointment in every way possible.
Honestly the stunt man did a great impersonating Seagal's waddle up those stairs. They did a real good job of convincing me that they were a much fatter man.
The old guy (Dale Dye) actually served in the Marine Corps during the Vietnam War. Had scenes in Saving Private Ryan, Platoon, Under Siege, Mission: Impossible amongst others. Has served as a technical advisor on many films he's appeared in. To ensure war was portrayed accurately. Its a shame cuz I'm sure he ignored realism in this movie for the paycheck.
I don't think so i thinks it's more like he's idea got ignored by seagel here so there's nothings he can do but collect the paycheck and did the contract
The old guy is Dale Dye who is a decorated marine vet and is a technical advisor for many many movies and shows such as band of brothers. He would personally be responsible for many movies being less shit with his advice. His a man that should be respected which is why is such a shame seeing him involved with a seagal movie
I like how that rifle, that doesn't have a sound suppressor on it, still makes that movie-silencer "pew" sound, lol. Not to mention, in a sniper team, the spotter is actually the more senior and more experienced of the two. So in this case, Seagal is actually playing the less experienced of the two but you know that wasn't his intentions, lol.
@@JasonBrant you can say that again. I love how it seems like he just learned about swapping shoulders, which you usually do if you're leaning out from cover but he just does it randomly throughout the movie, lol.
@@TalkingHands308 Of course he has to. He's so fucking fat if he tried to lean into a turn he would fall over and you would probably hear his back audibly crack if he had to twist more than 4 degrees.
@@ravenwolf8632 LOL, never before have they had to hire a stunt double just to walk up and down freakin' stairs. I bet his stunt double was like "ok, so do I have to get thrown by an explosion, hit by a car, or crash through a window pane?" "Nah, you just walk up and down some stairs and try to hide your face while doing it..."
@@TalkingHands308 I wish that were true but they had to hire stunt doubles to stand up for him as well. That one movie where he is in this cyberpunkish future they literally had a stunt double to stand up off a bed for Seagal.
I almost feel bad for him. He really really really wants to be remembered up there with Chuck Norris, Jean Claude Van Damme or Stallone. But he's way past his prime and his movies just kept getting worse and worse. It's sad really.
@@gilbertotoledo1421 The funny thing is, he would've been remembered as one of the Hollywood tough guys, if he wouldn't have gone the desperate way to stay up there. Tragic, really.
@Nicky Bobby He literally makes zero money in the west. All his movies since 1999 have been money laundering schemes by some eastern European country, most likely Russia.
He wants to be a badass so hard, yet he doesn't want to make the smallest ounce of effort. Literally! Seagal's probably a grade II obese, he needs doubles for almost everything that doesn't involve sitting and talking in a shitty accent, and still need someone to overdub his lines bc he can't be even be bothered to learn them. Say what you will about JCVD, but at least he puts in the effort and actually tried to deliver entertaining action flics.
That’s always one of my favorite things about movies in modern conflict, the t-ban or whomever the bad guy is always sprints into the open, takes a Slav squat and starts hammering rounds, when in reality, 90% of those dudes fire from a window, alley, from behind some rocks/trees/bushes and then just disappear entirely. Rarely do they fully engage and if they do it’s because they figure they have the upper hand. Not too many movies do the enemy justice in their wanting-to-not-die department. Lol
Yeah military movies and shows are almost always horrendously stupid like that. Do they not get that these are supposed to be real human beings who definitely don't want to die? Oh yeah sure I'll just stand out in the open, that's smart. The entire reason these conflicts even happen and last for so damn long is because *both* sides are trained to fight. Just because one force might be lower tech doesn't mean they're all like cavemen or some shit(see Vietnam) It's just like they have to make the enemy the bad guys rather than actual people, so they just do stupid crap. Meanwhile our excellent heroes do the opposite and run around like they're in Call of Duty racking up hundreds of kills.
It's a stupid cliche to make the protagonist look good as they mercilessly murder a bunch of people. It's fine to have the invincible hero.....if the setting makes sense (and even then) but far too many writers dont respect the setting or the pieces in the story so you get the typical mook that just stands in place like a target dummy instead of a real believable being. Like not using any pratical battle tactics despite being in a real world war setting.
It's always been the same way in movies and TV shows with the bad guys running away from cover out in to the open. I grew up in the '60s when everything was WW II. I was too young for Vietnam, but all the guys I knew that were there said the same thing. NOBODY sticks there head up when shooting is going on, NOBODY.
I noticed that too. It’s a bit of a pet peeve of mine in movies when suppressed weapons make little to no sound. Suppressed firearms are still pretty loud!
“We saw this guy in like the 80s playing a colonel” 1989 was the first time Dale Dye played colonel in the Tom Cruise film Born On the 4th of July. He is still alive to this day though at 78 years old
The headphones they're wearing are electronic hearing protection, it allows you to have comms as well as amplifying quiet sounds such as foot steps or voices while blocking out loud sounds, most notably gunfire. Usually they are mounted on a ballistic helmet and blend a lot better but I doubt they had the budget for all that
I’m not a member of the army or any military for that fact, but I am sure there are some weight regulations for active soldiers. This is to make sure when they’re deployed to action, they can physically perform to the best of their capabilities. With that in mind, Seagal would have not been deployed. For those that are serving in the military or used to, please correct me if am wrong. I am only speaking from general knowledge.
A sniper and a spotter literally protruding conspicuously from a cover is about as believable as a real flying elephant. The Lt. Col. in this movie is Dale Dye, a real-life decorated Vietnam War Marine who has become a Hollywood director and was a military consultant to many military war movies, including Saving Private Ryan. I was laughing my ass off about your comment about him being so old for just a Lt. Col. It's exactly my first impression when I saw this one; I literally said to my friends, "Goddamn, with this guy's age, he might as well be a 10-star general."
The actor playing the Colonel was born in 1944 and became a Marine at age 20. Full military career, Bronze Star in Vietnam, made it to master sergeant, captain after officer training, eventually retired in 1984, turned to various things including journalism, acting, and working as an expert advisor for movies about warfare. So about 8 years older than Seagal.
Yeah. He was 72 years old when this was filmed. 72. And he was a Lieutenant Colonel. To put that into perspective, I retired in 2018 as a LTC at age 46. And I was enlisted for 6 years before I Mustanged up to officer. So most of my peers where 40-42. So Dale Dye’s character almost 30 years older than me and the same rank. He’s a great actor in the right role, but terribly miscast here.
@@Tiago-zg7vl And doesn’t have to do anything. And he wasn’t a Colonel. He was a Lieutenant Colonel. In the Army, especially in Infantry or Special Operations, both of those ranks have to do what their men do. He does PT every morning, goes on ruck marches, does the obstacle course, lives in the field for weeks at a time, goes to various weapon ranges…There’s a lot to it physically and mentally. The President doesn’t have those requirements. If, to be the POTUS, you had to run 2 miles in 14 minutes, do 80 pushups in 2 minutes, 80 sit-ups in 2 minutes, march 25 miles with 60 pounds of gear, your weapon, and whatever extra weight you you have (spare SAW sums, extra belt for the 240, mortar rounds, etc…) I doubt he would be the president. That’s why the average age for a Colonel is around 44, give or take a couple of years, and a LTC is 38-44. At 79, he might be able to do the mental requirements, but unless he’s the Highlander, he’s WELL past the physical.
@@JasonBrant I guarantee you the reason he appears in this movie is because he appeared in the Under Siege movies with Steven Seagal back when as well.
@@reekz1568 The same with all his recent movies - he probably says “you have me for 4 hours and i get 50% of the movies budget which is around $10,000”
Apparently he can be a diva about the shooting schedules so they often shoot when he wants too, that's one of the many reasons for his downfall from being an "A list" movie star.
My absolute most faved Steven Seagal flick is 1996 "Executive Decision" with him and Kurt Russell on the movie poster. Seagal is built up like this insane badass only to kick the bucket after like 15 min into the movie when he's sucked out of an airplane. And I kid you not, the whole cinema audience cheered their asses off. And I am talking 90ies Swiss cinema audience where people usually were not making a sound during movies amd you could more likely hear a fly fart.
@@JasonBrant If what John Leguizamo said is any indication, Seagal cried like a little bitch when his character died and he (Seagal) insisted on his character dying be portrayed/filmed the way it was so that, and I'm quoting here, "wasn't definitive". That's how fragile Seagal's ego is.
He lost the Razzie that year to Marlon Brando. But this was Dr. Moreau level Brando, already long into his bout of acting constipation, even without everything else that was going on for Brando and the film's production.
The old lieutenant colonel is Dale Dye and actually was only 71 years old in that movie. Besides being an actor he’s a military advisor for tv and film movies. He was a technical advisor for Saving Private Ryan.
And he was in Platoon, Casualties of War, Born on the Fourth of July….He is/was pretty much THE go to guy for military advisors for TV and movies. Granted, looks a little rough here but he’s a solid dude!
The headphones they wear are active hearing protection, meaning they have microphones built so that you lose no situational awareness, and can even boost your hearing, but they block out sounds above 85db so that you dont go deaf from gunshots. Alongside this, some models have a boom mic and can be connectes to up to two different radios depending on the model for both squad comms and command comms.They're very common in special forces units and some militaries.
Pretty sure for the US army and USMC they’re adopting Peltors (or equivalent from a different company) as standard issue rather then just for special forces.
Why is it so hard to keep the stock against your shoulder? Come on it’s not that hard lol. These are the same actors who would hold out a shotgun against no part of their body.
i cant believe that i used to think he was a martial arts and weapons master... and hes a master in a culty almost fake martial art and kind of an idiot
I spent 25 years in the military. Four as a Force Recon Marine, 21 as an infantry officer and counterintelligence agent for Special Operations. This movie is hilarious. 1) these guys are so old. All of them. 2) There are no Specialist (E4) Operators. 3) Some girl saying I’m an expert marksman, can you say the same? To a guy in Special Operations who more than likely is a rifle expert. 4) This may be the greatest movie ever made.

I have to defend the headphone thing. As a veteran of Iraq and crewmember of a Bradley, we had helmets with hearing protection designed by Bose that had microphones that would transmit audio until there is a sound like a gunshot, which it then cuts the audio to protect hearing. The system was really good, where you wouldn't notice it being sent in through a microphone and played through speakers, it also stopped a lot of noise.
@@aarons6935 Jealous? Yeah you are, you certainly sound like it. But your jealousy doesn't make my time in the US Army not exist. Go troll somewhere else.
Valid, but, and it's a big butt, the only reason he would need those noise cancelling headphones is to cut out the peeps advising him that 10 cheeseburgers for breakfast might not be a good idea.
I find hilarious the idea that MANY of the casted actors worked throughout a whole movie production only to the discover at the premiere that it was always a Seagal movie
As a man that fought in two wars and led 20 marines in combat; I can tell you this movie is on point. I'm honestly getting ptsd flashes just from watching this!
I've been on a MASSIVE Steven Seagal analysis binge on another channel (Space Ice btw, which I HIGHLY recommend) and to start this video and hear "It's Seagal time again..." made me feel more emotion than his entire filmography combined. Great vid, guys.
Dale Dye, the Lt Colonel here, was in the navy in his early life and is still alive in 2024 and has made 5 more movies since this one. He's 76, so he wasn't actually much older than Seagal when this movie was made...
I love how Keanu goes off into the fucking desert to complete a legit SWAT training, learn how to shoot, learn how to do several martial arts *AND* does his own stunts (completely not tiring stuff like FIGHTING and HANGING 40 FEET IN THE AIR FOR SEVEN TAKES) while Seagal needs a stunt double for walking up and down stairs, not even bothering to learn how to hold (let alone handle) a firearm. Amazing.
I'm practically braindead and yet when I was younger, I've held fake guns and a few real ones better than he does. Like if a practically braindead kid does better than you then you have a major fucking issue.
God Bless you for working with youngsters. Learning outdoor skills, fishing, hunting, shooting are lost to this digital generation. Fortunately, I was raised by my dad, and uncles/neighbors, that were WWII vets who taught me those skills, as I have taught my son and daughter.

Director Olen Ray, who had the cameras on, liked the line and added it to his picture, saying "Steven, God bless his enlarged heart, answered 'every once in a while', taking it kindly, and worked well in the picture"."

He was in "Platoon", "Born On The Fourth Of July", "Casualties of War", among A LOT of others. He's even been in Seagal movies before, appearing in, "Under Siege", and, "Under Siege 2".
Maybe he took pity on Seagal and was like "screw it.. I'm bored anyway let's get this thing over with so Steven will stop calling me"

@@tentardigrades968 yeah right, when did they do that? it was loud when John shot the friend of Vigo's son.
That's because Seagal is so bad ass that any weapon he fires automatically matches his speaking voice. It's not actually the Hollywood "silencer" sound, it's the gun mimicking his lines. The fact that he doesn't win an Oscar every year is an absolute travesty.
Seagal is literally trapped in the tough guy action hero genre professionally and mentally. He hasn't progressed or branched out in 30 years. Glad he's become a meme

The old Colonel is Dale Dye. He is a decorated Marine veteran from Vietnam. He was what is considered a "Mustang" in the Marine Corp. He climbed the ranks of the enlistment to Master Sergeant and then was appointed to be a warrant officer. When he retired in 1984 he was a Captian. Mustang officers are the most respected of Officer is the Marine Corp. They chewed the same ground as the normal grunts. He is a Bronze Star winner with Valor. He definitely is old at 78 to play this part, but he has earned that. He has been in a ton of Military movies. His goal when he joined Hollywood was to make war movies more realistic. One of his first films, I think it was his first was Platoon. He also worked in Saving Private Ryan and Band of Brothers, amongst several others. He has definitely helped some films become very realistic. Unfortunately, nothing he can do for this movie. I am sure no one listened to him and he was there for the check. Not a bad plan at 78.
Hey thx for the background info, that was interesting to know
Good stuff dude :)
That's cool. He probably thought "wtf is this shit" when he was hired
they are right that he should be higher rank than COLONEL at his age.... I get he likely wouldn't want a title he never received in real-life, but still
@Chris Buttonshaw he wasn't even a colonal, he was a captain. And yes, he's far too old to be a colonel, but the 4 people who watch this movie aren't likely to mind.
The Colonel is portrayed by Dale Dye, who is a certified badass combat vet. He made Captain before "retiring" from the Marines and continued to serve as a correspondant in multiple wars afterwards. His company Warrior Inc. was founded to work with Hollywood films to ensure athenticity for portrayals of combat, though as you can see Segal would hear none of it for this film.
I see him in "Platoon" from Oliver Stone......
How do they not know Dale freaking Dye. It's sad to see him ridiculed like that. It is funny though they constantly call Segal a fat ass while the dude rests his arm on his gut 😆
He’s also plays in Band of Brothers as the Colonel
@@WikedEvo This, completely. Dale Dye is a legend, and Seagal would be lucky to be a quarter as good of a combatant as Dye was.
I believe he has since passed, but he was the genuine article. He’s also in PLATOON, amongst a lot of other things.
I’m not huge into movies so I did not know about Mr. Dye but as fellow Marine it does annoy me that these guys are making fun of him due to his age and looking him up he served in the same unit I was at 2nd BLT 1st Marines.
Steven Seagal is not even willing to stay in shape for his movies, why would I be willing to pay to watch his movies?
Credit where its due. First time a stunt double is used to walk or climb the stairs. This an historical moment. Hats off to Sifu Seagal.

He was in Platoon, Born on the 4th of July and Heaven and Earth as well as Outbreak, Casualties of War, Saving Private Ryan, and arguably Steven Segal's best film, Under Siege.

I just love the fact that they had to use a stunt double to walk up stairs. Like, Stevie Seagull's laziness and risk of heart attack at even the slightest physical exertion made this a good call on the part of the producers. In fact, SteSeag probably insisted on it, but sold it not as "I'm too lazy to walk up stairs" but rather that he has some mysterious, unmentioned before that point heart condition that only badasses suffer from that could kill him if his heart rate goes up. What a joke that guy is! A living meme.

Steven Seagal is the greatest actor ever. I mean he's in character 24/7.
He is a method actor by birth
Legend has it that he is actually a nice, decent, easy going, humble and respectful person, but he has been in character since the mid 1970's.
I firmly believe this movie is a visual representation of how Steven actually views himself in the context of real life. To be clear when I was in infantry school at Ft.Benning in 2004 my battle buddy was this great guy named Chauncey Jinx. While he would go on to become one of my closet friends, his lack of overall common sense and intellect was substantial enough that he stood out, in a company of 100+ guys who picked an MOS in the Army that generally attracts those types of people as you can choose the 11B MOS with a measily ASVAB score of 35. For some contrast I’m confident my cat would score a 45. Anyway, good ol Jinx, who at one point I had to explain the many reasons why we, as infantrymen were guaranteed to deploy which came as genuine shock to him, is millions of times more deadly of a combatant than Segal on his best day living in his fantasy world .
Seagal has zero self-awareness. It's kind of impressive, actually.
@@JasonBrant You guys are mistaken. He has negative self-awareness. How else could he think so highly of himself?
Skynet is MORE self aware than Seagal!
These are the most hysterically accurate comments I've read ina while. Touche gents. Also I was a grunt Marine and fully understand and agree with what's said here. I grew up loving seagal movies, now I just wonder wtf has happened.
I also love how instead of securing the structure he’s in with his wounded teammate, taking the initiative and developing a feasible route of egress he just plops down and has a good ol heart to heart like they’re not in the middle of a hostile AO with no friendly support units. I’m sure Dale Dye had plenty of input but was shut down by “master marksman CIA SAD Operator trainer” Sansei Sugartits Segal.
Love how the stunt double is also clearly like, a physically fit man with slightly thick sleeves on because Steven doesn't want to admit he's a walrus but they also had to realize they couldn't just let that guy go on set without even a little padding.

Dale Dye was in fact a Marine in Vietnam from 1965-1970, earning a Bronze Star and 3 Purple Hearts in 31 major combat operations if you believe his bio. He was born in 1944, so in 2016 when this movie was released he was ~72, and he is still alive today at ~78.

He wants to be a badass so hard, yet he doesn't want to make the smallest ounce of effort. Literally! Seagal's probably a grade II obese, he needs doubles for almost everything that doesn't involve sitting and talking in a shitty accent, and still need someone to overdub his lines bc he can't be even be bothered to learn them.

That’s always one of my favorite things about movies in modern conflict, the t-ban or whomever the bad guy is always sprints into the open, takes a Slav squat and starts hammering rounds, when in reality, 90% of those dudes fire from a window, alley, from behind some rocks/trees/bushes and then just disappear entirely. Rarely do they fully engage and if they do it’s because they figure they have the upper hand. Not too many movies do the enemy justice in their wanting-to-not-die department. Lol
yeah, its either propaganda at this point... or they dont respect their viewers intelligence.
Yeah military movies and shows are almost always horrendously stupid like that.
Do they not get that these are supposed to be real human beings who definitely don't want to die? Oh yeah sure I'll just stand out in the open, that's smart.
The entire reason these conflicts even happen and last for so damn long is because *both* sides are trained to fight. Just because one force might be lower tech doesn't mean they're all like cavemen or some shit(see Vietnam)
It's just like they have to make the enemy the bad guys rather than actual people, so they just do stupid crap. Meanwhile our excellent heroes do the opposite and run around like they're in Call of Duty racking up hundreds of kills.
It's a stupid cliche to make the protagonist look good as they mercilessly murder a bunch of people. It's fine to have the invincible hero.....if the setting makes sense (and even then) but far too many writers dont respect the setting or the pieces in the story so you get the typical mook that just stands in place like a target dummy instead of a real believable being. Like not using any pratical battle tactics despite being in a real world war setting.
gave me an idea for a short movie type thing actually show how guerrillas act lmao
It's always been the same way in movies and TV shows with the bad guys running away from cover out in to the open. I grew up in the '60s when everything was WW II. I was too young for Vietnam, but all the guys I knew that were there said the same thing. NOBODY sticks there head up when shooting is going on, NOBODY.

This is to make sure when they’re deployed to action, they can physically perform to the best of their capabilities. With that in mind, Seagal would have not been deployed. For those that are serving in the military or used to, please correct me if am wrong. I am only speaking from general knowledge.
A sniper and a spotter literally protruding conspicuously from a cover is about as believable as a real flying elephant. The Lt. Col. in this movie is Dale Dye, a real-life decorated Vietnam War Marine who has become a Hollywood director and was a military consultant to many military war movies, including Saving Private Ryan. I was laughing my ass off about your comment about him being so old for just a Lt. Col. It's exactly my first impression when I saw this one; I literally said to my friends, "Goddamn, with this guy's age, he might as well be a 10-star general."
The actor playing the Colonel was born in 1944 and became a Marine at age 20. Full military career, Bronze Star in Vietnam, made it to master sergeant, captain after officer training, eventually retired in 1984, turned to various things including journalism, acting, and working as an expert advisor for movies about warfare. So about 8 years older than Seagal.
Yeah. He was 72 years old when this was filmed. 72. And he was a Lieutenant Colonel. To put that into perspective, I retired in 2018 as a LTC at age 46. And I was enlisted for 6 years before I Mustanged up to officer. So most of my peers where 40-42. So Dale Dye’s character almost 30 years older than me and the same rank. He’s a great actor in the right role, but terribly miscast here.
Seems like a cool dude who should not have been cast for the role. Though I think they needed someone older than Seagal to make it 'work.'
Too old to be a Colonel but young enough to be a world leader! Joe Biden is 79 years young!
@@Tiago-zg7vl And doesn’t have to do anything. And he wasn’t a Colonel. He was a Lieutenant Colonel. In the Army, especially in Infantry or Special Operations, both of those ranks have to do what their men do. He does PT every morning, goes on ruck marches, does the obstacle course, lives in the field for weeks at a time, goes to various weapon ranges…There’s a lot to it physically and mentally. The President doesn’t have those requirements. If, to be the POTUS, you had to run 2 miles in 14 minutes, do 80 pushups in 2 minutes, 80 sit-ups in 2 minutes, march 25 miles with 60 pounds of gear, your weapon, and whatever extra weight you you have (spare SAW sums, extra belt for the 240, mortar rounds, etc…) I doubt he would be the president. That’s why the average age for a Colonel is around 44, give or take a couple of years, and a LTC is 38-44. At 79, he might be able to do the mental requirements, but unless he’s the Highlander, he’s WELL past the physical.
@@JasonBrant I guarantee you the reason he appears in this movie is because he appeared in the Under Siege movies with Steven Seagal back when as well.
You can tell he shot all of his scenes at a totally different time than the rest of the cast. This is the funniest movie ive ever seen.
Steve’s so into himself he probably demanded it. Didn’t want to meet the other cast members cause he’s too much of a star.
@@reekz1568 The same with all
his recent movies - he probably says “you have me for 4 hours and i get 50% of the movies budget which is around $10,000”
Apparently he can be a diva about the shooting schedules so they often shoot when he wants too, that's one of the many reasons for his downfall from being an "A list" movie star.
@@frankiethebull8269 Oh of course.
My absolute most faved Steven Seagal flick is 1996 "Executive Decision" with him and Kurt Russell on the movie poster. Seagal is built up like this insane badass only to kick the bucket after like 15 min into the movie when he's sucked out of an airplane. And I kid you not, the whole cinema audience cheered their asses off. And I am talking 90ies Swiss cinema audience where people usually were not making a sound during movies amd you could more likely hear a fly fart.
That's hilarious. Having him die at the beginning was the best thing that movie could have done.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 a fly farting
Good movie
@@JasonBrant If what John Leguizamo said is any indication, Seagal cried like a little bitch when his character died and he (Seagal) insisted on his character dying be portrayed/filmed the way it was so that, and I'm quoting here, "wasn't definitive". That's how fragile Seagal's ego is.
He lost the Razzie that year to Marlon Brando. But this was Dr. Moreau level Brando, already long into his bout of acting constipation, even without everything else that was going on for Brando and the film's production.
The old lieutenant colonel is Dale Dye and actually was only 71 years old in that movie. Besides being an actor he’s a military advisor for tv and film movies. He was a technical advisor for Saving Private Ryan.
He was also Colonel Sink in Band of Brothers
@irishmetalfan $$$
And he was in Platoon, Casualties of War, Born on the Fourth of July….He is/was pretty much THE go to guy for military advisors for TV and movies. Granted, looks a little rough here but he’s a solid dude!
He is also a Marine, and served in Vietnam
@Coogan I agree, dude. Just adding it as a fun fact
Steven Seagal is the most disciplined person I have seen......he never missed a meal in his life!!!!!!
Don't forget secondzis
Meal Team Six
Someday he will replace Michelin man. :)
Imagine if seagal would say that on his younger days he was a stuntman that use to do the running scenes 🤣
That old guy is Dale Dye. A decorated veteran. Played in bands of brothers and platoon. Served as a consultant on many other films.
Nice to know!
The headphones they wear are active hearing protection, meaning they have microphones built so that you lose no situational awareness, and can even boost your hearing, but they block out sounds above 85db so that you dont go deaf from gunshots. Alongside this, some models have a boom mic and can be connectes to up to two different radios depending on the model for both squad comms and command comms.They're very common in special forces units and some militaries.
Pretty sure for the US army and USMC they’re adopting Peltors (or equivalent from a different company) as standard issue rather then just for special forces.
The movement and weapon handling has me in stitches every time I see it. I cannot keep a straight face.
Yes it's cringeworthy. But I can't look away. 🤣
Why is it so hard to keep the stock against your shoulder? Come on it’s not that hard lol. These are the same actors who would hold out a shotgun against no part of their body.
god, really.
This dickweed claims he’s a “master shooter” to boot.
i cant believe that i used to think he was a martial arts and weapons master... and hes a master in a culty almost fake martial art and kind of an idiot
I spent 25 years in the military. Four as a Force Recon Marine, 21 as an infantry officer and counterintelligence agent for Special Operations. This movie is hilarious. 1) these guys are so old. All of them. 2) There are no Specialist (E4) Operators. 3) Some girl saying I’m an expert marksman, can you say the same? To a guy in Special Operations who more than likely is a rifle expert. 4) This may be the greatest movie ever made.
All hilarious points. You could tell she was an expert marksman by the way she took care of business, though 🤣
KILL
i fucking hope theyd all be expert marksmen....
I'll call BS on your military part of your comment.

And since most of my OER’s were above center of mass, and I was promoted above the zone to MAJ and LTC, pretty sure I’d have made full bird, and probably higher. Enjoy your day, and Happy New Year.

The Old Colonel actor was the Colonel also on Band of Brothers
I have to defend the headphone thing. As a veteran of Iraq and crewmember of a Bradley, we had helmets with hearing protection designed by Bose that had microphones that would transmit audio until there is a sound like a gunshot, which it then cuts the audio to protect hearing. The system was really good, where you wouldn't notice it being sent in through a microphone and played through speakers, it also stopped a lot of noise.
No you weren't, don't lie.
@@aarons6935 Jealous? Yeah you are, you certainly sound like it. But your jealousy doesn't make my time in the US Army not exist. Go troll somewhere else.
Valid, but, and it's a big butt, the only reason he would need those noise cancelling headphones is to cut out the peeps advising him that 10 cheeseburgers for breakfast might not be a good idea.
@@misterpink8099 You sir, are correct.
Thank you for your service.
I like how even the stunt double had to walk a little slower than normal to make it look more believable
Costume probably had to get the kid version for all the gear so the proportions matched.
@@orlock20 thats the problem lol, the proportions are so wrong you can tell its not him
Steven Seagal has literally become Will Sasso's version of Steven Seagal. The circle is complete.
Will can take from here
They had to get the idea for inception somewhere!
S-Seagal is the perfect balance of confusion and crazy......
@@EZ-D-FIANT And yet.....I can't look away!
@@LoneWolf81684 I can relate.....😏
So true
Seagal's dream role is one where he plays someone on a wheelchair but still kicks ass against full bodied criminals.
I find hilarious the idea that MANY of the casted actors worked throughout a whole movie production only to the discover at the premiere that it was always a Seagal movie
Being a stunt double for Seagal must in itself be a meme in the industry lol
at the age of 80, he will still make movies where the enemy just drops dead at the sight of his awesomeness 😁
😂😂😂😂😂😂 this had me die laughing
before his passing, Steven will make all Chuck Norris sayings come true on the film screen about himself 🤣🤣
By then he'll need a stunt double to do the sitting down scenes.
5:02 Holding your AR like a rocket launcher is some next level shit.
It's funny how Segal tries to hide his gut with his costumes. In this one he has an extra big ammo belt/tac vest to hide it.
It only makes him look bigger, too.
he should stand behind Jupiter then.
@@markmac2206 LOL
As a man that fought in two wars and led 20 marines in combat; I can tell you this movie is on point. I'm honestly getting ptsd flashes just from watching this!
new movie coming....."WARRIOR WITH A WALKER"
😂good joke devil.
Did you had a 85 years old superior like the Colonel here that send you into battle using WW1 tactics??
You name is Tyler dude wkup
I've been on a MASSIVE Steven Seagal analysis binge on another channel (Space Ice btw, which I HIGHLY recommend) and to start this video and hear "It's Seagal time again..." made me feel more emotion than his entire filmography combined.
Great vid, guys.
Dale Dye, the Lt Colonel here, was in the navy in his early life and is still alive in 2024 and has made 5 more movies since this one. He's 76, so he wasn't actually much older than Seagal when this movie was made...
I love how Keanu goes off into the fucking desert to complete a legit SWAT training, learn how to shoot, learn how to do several martial arts *AND* does his own stunts (completely not tiring stuff like FIGHTING and HANGING 40 FEET IN THE AIR FOR SEVEN TAKES) while Seagal needs a stunt double for walking up and down stairs, not even bothering to learn how to hold (let alone handle) a firearm.
Amazing.
Funny thing, even though Keanu isn´t the best speaker, he learned to become better, and is still a better speaker than Steven Seagal.
I like how they made the sniper shot in the beginning sound like it was quiet but the gun didn’t even have a suppressor 😂 2:18
I’ve seen literal children with toy guns have better gun handling than Segal in this.
I'm practically braindead and yet when I was younger, I've held fake guns and a few real ones better than he does. Like if a practically braindead kid does better than you then you have a major fucking issue.
God Bless you for working with youngsters. Learning outdoor skills, fishing, hunting, shooting are lost to this digital generation. Fortunately, I was raised by my dad, and uncles/neighbors, that were WWII vets who taught me those skills, as I have taught my son and daughter.
My dab has no idea how hard Steven has fallen and still regards him as a seriously good actor and legit martial artist. Fucking hilarious.
Show
