    Universal Soldier: A New Beginning

    Shot in Bulgaria, the film stars Van Damme and Lundgren as former Vietnam War comrades Luc Deveraux and Andrew Scott turned enemies who kills each other, but are then brought back from the dead as super soldiers. In the first movie, the two men locked horns once again post-death. In this third installment, they re-team to go after a crazed Chechen nationalist with nuclear-ish weapons. Things go bad when Scott, of course, goes on the fritz and only Deveraux can take him down, downtown. It’s a tough job, but someone’s gotta do it.

    Arlovski also has another movie in the making also starring Van Damme.

    Arlovski was recently on an episode of Bully beat down and completely destroyed some fat wanker who thought he was a a tough guy. Worth checking out.

    He should grow his hair and beard again. At the moment he just looks like a tall bloke.

    Van Damme is not really that big.

    I reckon Van Damme must weigh around 80 - 82 kgs.

    Arlovski is 6'4.

    Indeed, Van Damme is a little short, and it dont help standing next to someone Arlovski's size.

    I just saw Arlovski on Bully Beatdown. That was a bit overkill.

    No kidding. He damn near killed the bloke. I think he almost coughed up a lung with the kick to the stomach and then a right hand to put him down.

    Anyone got a link to that bit with arlovski wasting that fat guy on the bully show?

    Thats the first review of the film I think, tey gave it a B and said

    "I cannot in good conscience review this film without talking about the action sequences. The film opens with a very effective, surprisingly expensive car chase that is quite impressive. It’s no surprise that Arlovski delivers the blunt force when needed and he cuts quite an imposing presence even next to Lundgren. But the crown jewel fight, of course, is that of Van Damme & Lundgren. These two beat the tar out of each other as if their very legacies were on the line; not too far off really. The size differential works just as well here as it did in the 1992 original and the use of various walls as crumbling, bone-shattering props was a thrill. The finale of this single exchange is better than anything else in the film, and I honestly believe that is not a back-handed compliment."

    Jesus Christ. They're still making sequels to Universal Soldier? And I didn't know that Dolph Lungren was still alive much less making movies.

    Arlovski had a problem with bullies when he was young. So, he started lifting weights and studying martial arts. I think he took this personally to beat this douche bags ass. A school yard bully with a big mouth vs a former UFC HW Champion it dont get any better than that. :yep
