Jean-Claude Van Damme








Yesterday I watched "Nowhere to run". And it was interesting and also of Van damme. Watching this film brought up my memories about this fine actor. Of vause he is and always has been one of my favorite hero, I used to watch some of his films over and over again and I would do that even again if I came a cross with some fils such as "LIONHEART" or "KICKBOXER" or "THE QUEST". Those, specially "LIONHEART" are my choice of best films stard by this musculine and in the same time martial art hero.

Yes Stallon and Arnold are great action heros. But this little (Just a little short) hero got something more and it is the skill of martial arts. He realy got the tallent and some magnificiant kicks to go along with him.

I recently learned that his last theatrical released movie was "Universal Soldier: The Return" (1999) and all his movies after this, up until 2008's JCVD, had been direct to video releases. And that is why we see very less of him.

After the filming of the 1998 movie Knock Off, Van Damme was diagnosed with rapid cycling bi-polar disorder after becoming suicidal and started treatment on the bi-polar medication sodium valproate to stabilize his mood. So that is why he wasn't around after 1999 "Universal Soldier: The Return".

I also learned that Van Damme will reprise his role as Luc Devereaux in the upcoming movie Universal Soldier: Regeneration. So that means he is going to be back in action.

So I wish all the good luck for him in the future for a hugh success. And I think he needs it not only on behalf of him but also of us who misses such a great thearatical hero who can not be replaced very easily.
