Yeah steve, it wasn't due to your crappy movies, it was the FBI that made your career go downhill super quick.

Steven Seagal, whose action movies once were major box-office attractions, believes false allegations by FBI agents ruined his career, the Los Angeles Times reported on Friday.
The comments in the Times are the first Seagal has made publicly about an investigation begun some five years ago by the FBI into accusations he intimidated a reporter and had ties to organized crime. |

| Makes sense to me. The FBI shouldn't be libeling people. Not that has ever stopped them. |

I agree with the OP. It's not that he hasn't made a good film since Under Siege and US2 was a flop ($60 million budget, $50 million box office). Or he got kinda fat and old in the face. Or he garnered a reputation in Hollywood for being a difficult ahole to work with. (SNL made a semi serious joke about Seagal being the only guy banned from hosting SNL again.)
But if you look at his IMDB:

He makes one crap movie a year. And that hasn't changed. |

| I've only been able to sit completely through one of his movies, and that's the one where his character dies in the first 20 minutes. Executive Action? I think that's the one. |

I make lousy movies? No, that can't be it. It must be the FBI's fault. Yeah, that's it.
Where have I come across thinking like that before? |
