Back in the day, every movie and show was a Robert Vaughn movie or show. Or, so it seemed.

And he played them all. Good guy, bad guy, Robert could deliver. He was always suited up somehow though. RIP.

A drawer for a weapon. Who would have known. NOW WHY DO THEY GO KILL THAT 850 COUPE!!!!

Everything’s a weapon in the hands of Robert Fucking Vaughn. Everything.

That poor Fiat. It seemed so senseless. They had already gotten away from it and there’s no way that little car was going to catch up to them. It was like they murdered it for sport. Good color, too. I think your Fur Coat: Femmes Fatale character needs that striped robe he’s got.

So even that striped robe is a weapon? I need that robe. It’s so ‘70's.

But if everything is a weapon in his hand, would that make Robert the 60's Steven Seagal ?

Did you see Guy Ritchie’s interpretation of Man from U.N.C.L.E.?

Of course. Bob could find a hundred ways to kill you with that robe. Strangle you, suffocate you. I don’t know how, but he’d even stab you to death with it.

I love those. The Walkman one kills me for some reason. He’s also in the Chuck Norris school.

Yeah, I saw the Guy Ritchie one. It wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t good either. It was just kind of there.

Club you to death with it. That walkman on steven is awesome. Like the wine pouring and the iPhone photo moment as well!

The robe wouldn’t even hurt you. Your body would just shut down at the sight of a furious Robert Vaughn wielding it.

The look on Seagal’s face while he’s listening to that Walkman cracks me up every time I look at it. I could read those Chuck Norris lines all day.


Kinja'd!!! Jobjoris > Jonee

That guy is really good at it... The iPhone is probably the same look as that walkman one. Probably a registered trademark for Seagal productions.

I think you’re right. That is the patented Seagal grimace™. What movie is that one from? That’d make a great iPhone ad, too.


Kinja'd!!! Jobjoris > Jonee
11/22/2016 at 03:46

Kinja'd!!!1

Haha, how would I know? It’s not from Under Siege . Maybe from Above the Law ? How many movies of him did you actually see? I only know these two and Hard to Kill .


Kinja'd!!! Jonee > Jobjoris
11/23/2016 at 03:27

Kinja'd!!!1

I figured you for a big Seagal nut. Since you’re so macho. I’m not sure I’ve seen any others besides Under Siege, so compared to me, I was right. But, I like that movie. He’s pretty funny in it. It’s too bad he takes himself so seriously all the time.


Kinja'd!!! Jobjoris > Jonee
11/23/2016 at 05:18

Kinja'd!!!1

Haha, me macho! Gracias! I once started watching a movie in which he played some indian eskimo guy making war on a company that spilled oil in Alaska. Or something like that. That was the moment to stop watching him at all for me, he does take himself way too seriously...

And he ain’t Chuck Norris.


Kinja'd!!! Jonee > Jobjoris
11/25/2016 at 01:05

Kinja'd!!!1

So macho. Not quite Chuck Norris macho, but close. The Dutch version.

Oh, yeah. I remember when that movie came out. I never saw it, but it seemed ridiculous that he would make a movie with a “message.” Did you know he was the martial arts coach on Never Say Never Again and once broke Sean Connery’s wrist? What a douche. Chuck would turn him into ground beef with one kick.


Kinja'd!!! Jobjoris > Jonee
11/25/2016 at 05:55

Kinja'd!!!1

I knew he did stuff for other movies, never heard that Sean Connery story though!! Reading up on it I can’t imagine it being true. I quote:

He goes on to say that he had only recently discovered that it had been broken.

HOW DOES ONE ONLY RECENTLY DISCOVER A WRIST TO BE BROKEN??? It’s one of the most used joints in a body???


Kinja'd!!! Jonee > Jobjoris
11/29/2016 at 03:03

Kinja'd!!!1

Haha. Because he’s a real man. Buster Keaton once broke his neck on a stunt on one of his silent movies and never realized it until years later when he got an x-ray. I certainly wouldn’t put it past Seagal to lie about something like that. He’s probably telling people he actually played Bond at this point.


Kinja'd!!! Jobjoris > Jonee
11/29/2016 at 04:27

I think Steven would be an excellent Bond! Such a humorous one come to think of it. Did you see the Above the LOL updates?

Kinja'd!!!

Maybe he’d be a better villain...


Kinja'd!!! Jonee > Jobjoris
11/30/2016 at 02:03

Kinja'd!!!1

Yeah, I would really like to see him as Bond. He’d have to be American because I think him trying to do the accent would be a bit much. Or, maybe he’s just a British guy with an American accent for no reason. Maybe Van Damme as the villain. Or, Dolph.

That one is great. How come that guy doesn’t want him swatting that fly?


Kinja'd!!! Jobjoris > Jonee
11/30/2016 at 04:21

Kinja'd!!!1

The guy has such a great sense of humor, please let him try that British accent! The world needs to see!

That’s a veganist from the peace corps. No need for violence. That’s pretty hard to understand for Steven.


Kinja'd!!! Jonee > Jobjoris
12/01/2016 at 02:37

Kinja'd!!!1

Did you know he has his own reality show? Steven Seagal: Lawman. He works with the police when he has “time off.”

He probably used the fly swatter to kill that vegan. Although we know he respects the environment, or Indians, or something because he made that movie.


Kinja'd!!! Jobjoris > Jonee
12/01/2016 at 04:40

Kinja'd!!!1

MUHAHAHA! I DIDN’T KNOW!!! That’s epic. I’ve got some catching up to do, I do know that! Awesome that your policeforce gets a little hand from a guy that lives above the lol.

Maybe he just was using the fly swatter to de-leaf that bushes on his left. Those look terribly unhealthy. He respects the environment. He drives a Prius.

It’s the most hilariously perfect Steven Seagal thing ever. You can tell they bring him to the most stupid situations, too. He never does anything that requires any real police work.

He’s apparently now policing up in San Francisco in a Leaf. Amazing.

Haha, I haven’t watched it yet but I can imagine that. We have a crime-investigator, a journalist, Peter R. de Vries. He always catches criminals and somehow, when he catches ‘m in the act you see a vast team of bodyguards nearby. Totally stupid. He only shows up after all is done. He did solve things the police couldn’t/wouldn’t though.

You did notice the date of publication on the Leaf/Seagal article, right? ;-)


Kinja'd!!! Jonee > Jobjoris
12/08/2016 at 15:19

Kinja'd!!!1

How did he solve crimes the police couldn’t? We have other shows like that. A favorite a few years ago was a show that set up perverts to meet young girls and then the host would pop out from behind a door to confront them. People loved it until they realized it was depressing.

I still believe it! There’s no photographic evidence, apparently, but he was probably just in one of his disguises when he drove the Leaf.

Stake outs, hidden cameras, all the stuff the local police force doesn’t feel like. Or cases without any priority...

He is so trustworthy. I understand. He’s above the LOL for a reason.
