Better Direct To Video Star (Steven Seagal or Jean-Claude Van Damme)

[Little Red Wagon Repairman]

I might lean toward Seagal but Jean-Claude has made some decent DTVs too.

Here's some of the gooder ones. Don't forget to stop by the liquor store before popping in the DVD though.

Steven Seagal
Belly of the Beast (2003)
Shadow Man (2006)
Urban Justice (2007)
Pistol Whipped (2008)

Jean-Claude Van Damme
The Shepherd (2008)
JCVD (2008)
Universal Soldier: Regeneration (2009)
Assassination Games (2011)
Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning (2012)

I like Van Damme movies more.....they are more entertaining and better plot...

If they ever have a contest about which one is the bigger real life jerk the competition would be epic between them although Seagal pulls that one out.

 

[Ray Ecks]

Oh man, this one is tough. I'll say Van Damme.

I thoroughly went through Amazon.com making sure I now will have every Van Damme and Seagal film available. I already had most of them and made sure I got Blu-ray unless DVD was the only available which, in that case, I got that. However, my collection is still missing No Retreat, No Surrender and Black Eagle but I will get those region-free Blu-rays when they are more reasonably priced. Anybody know when the heck Full Love(The Eagle Path) will be available? I need that Blu-ray like oxygen, gosh darnit!

I always though Jean-Claude would make a Damme fine director.










Sorry, I'll see myself out.

Can't see Steven Seagal ,the guy has zero facial expression, he made fly guys just with a little slap... he's so annoying!!
worst actor ever!

Van Damme has done a few decent films
Timecop
Double Impact
Expendables 2

 

[FreeOnes_Adam]

And mo mention to these guys? Oh come on now.

Van Damme always seems more suited to comedy than action, but the guy does have skills. Seagal is pretty humorless but that's probably due to his authentic fake Asian upbringing. I could never decide who was the better fake Asian; fake Chinese David Carradine or Fake Japanese Steven Seagal, they both play it well.

Easily, The Muscles from Bruxelles.. He may or may not be the better martial artist, he is by far the better actor - of course, always taken in account the comparison. And if we take the step of comparing looks, come on! Hands down a win.

But don't just believe me, believbe Bolo Yeung

I grudgingly admit to liking the movie Kickboxer way back in the day. I think I can be excused though because I was pretty young at the time.
