i think that seagal may have taken himself too serious in the past and also people take him too serious as well. People have these expectations from him, what he’s supposed to be and do, and how he’s supposed to act , etc,etc. because of the image he projected of himself as a ‘tough guy’. I think the only mistake he made was this.
When you try to show off and make others think you’re tough you better be able and ready to back it up , unfortunately seagal never did. i.e.:(gene lebell, van damme, bob wall, chuck norris etc. All of these guys are rumoured to have called him out to fight and seagal did nothing) Not defending his “honor” probably ruined his career, along with the false claims, repetitive movie storylines, etc… I don’t care what he was taught about not fighting, That passive attitude doesn’t work in todays world.. sometimes you just have to fight, or suffer the backlash.
Aikido is a martial art and you have a right to use it to defend yourself.
anyways, i think “o’sensei” would have enjoyed the movies because at the end of the day , they are just movies. entertainment.
idk.. maybe others took his movie roles too seriously ?
