Default Steven Seagal movies question

Why do producers and writers of these four movies, which contain actor Steven Seagal:

* Above The Law
* Hard To Kill
* Out For Justice
* Marked For Death

have to borrow this type of stupid violence and increased adult talk from the Godfather movies for no reason at all?

If these four movies has to be that way, they should used actor Charles Bronson instead to appear in these four movies instead! IMO.

As a matter of fact, why does Steven Seagal has to borrow this type of violence and adult talk from the Godfather movies for no reason at all?!!!

Whatever violence and adult talk that Steven Seagal approached to, imitated Godfather violence and adult talk, do you know what I am saying?

Watch both the Godfather and Steven Seagal movies immediately!

You will find out that Steven Seagal wanted to borrow both that type of violence and adult talking style from the Godfather movies

Well, don't just stand there, JamesG, go do it!

I've watched The Godfather Trilogy as well as those Seagal movies, and I don't get what you are saying.

Nothing was "borrowed" from The Godfather films. They are very different styles of film.

Steven Seagal borrowed the same type of violence from the Godfather movies! They are the same!

Schwarzeneggar, Stallone, Willis, Gibson, Van Damme, Snipes, Stallone and Statham do not do that too often like what Seagal is doing!

Can you give me some specific examples of what Seagal "borrowed" from The Godfather films?

For example, Seagal borrow the idea of putting a gun into another person's mouth. That was borrowed from Godfather Part II into Fire Down Below!

Automatically force shooting a criminal supervisor without mercy. That was borrowed from Godfather Part I to Hard To Kill.

Borrowing stupid violence from Godfather movies into Steven Seagal movies is wrong!

Of course, it does not apply too much on Schwarzeneggar, Stallone, Willis, Gibson, Snipes, Norris, Van Damme and Statham movies at all, which is alright!

The Godfather Part II did not originate "the gun in the mouth" bit. I'm sorry, but this idea of Seagal "borrowing" things from The Godfather series does not make any sense.

Huh is what people say in response to people who say things that make zero sense.

What I am saying is that there is no zero sense at all!

Steven Seagal borrowed that type of violence from the Godfather movies, Steven is the one who is making zero sense at all!
