For those of you who haven't seen "Escape From Atlantis", here is your
chance! This Tues. Night at 9pm EST, the SCI FI Channel is airing the
made for TV flick. I only found this out after looking today at my
local TV Giude, which (and you'll flip over this one) has a small
black and white photo still of Jeff (!) with the plug of such airing.
***
Oh, I have yet to find any DVDs that feature Jeff , with the exception
of "Lionheart" where he has the three second cameo at the end of the
ok this is what I have found out so far...
<br>The only titles available on DVD (RIGHT NOW) are
Deadly Outbreak, Hot Boyz, & Timelock.. <br>They have a
few titles on Laserdisk (IF anyone is intereted)
Deadly outbreak, Memorial Day, Escape/Atlantis and
Platos Run... <br><br>Ill update as I get more
info.......<br>AngeliqueCeleste
I read it too. I would agree with
Celeste.<br><br>Now, if it is true, I cross my fingers that it will be
a good, fairly decent budget of a film .<br><br>In
the meantime, there was ANOTHER article at this site
dealing with a seminar, and here is that
report:<br><br>Motion picture star Jeff Speakman will be at the Kelley
Karate Center in Greenacres, Florida on Sturday, August
11th, 2001. Mr.Speakman is the star of several action
films including The Perfect Weapon, Street Night and
Escape from Atlantis. He is also the President of the
AKKS, one of the largest Kenpo organizations at large.
Two classes are going to be available, broken out by
age group. Class 1 will be from 11:00 to 12:00 noon
for ages 4-8. Class 2 will be for white through black
teens and adults from 2:00 to 4:00. Kids class is
$25.00. Adult class is $25.00 for AKKS members, $35.00
for non-members(CASH ONLY!). Note: PreRegistration is
advised as space is limited and Mr.Speakman's classes
usually fill up very quickly. Call 561-641-0382 to
reserve your space.
k, no problme folloiwing your links, got a few
"calls in" ill see what i can dredge up, from reading
that little bit though it sounds like her hasn't
actually started anything, it was just a negotiation, so
it may take some time, but ill let you know as soon
as I find anything out...]<br>AngeliqueCeleste
Hey AngCes.Go to www.ckfonline.org<br>At the top
of the page click on OLDER ARTICLES.<br>Scroll down
to #19-LESS YACK,MORE SMACK.<br>Click on it and it
tells a little about Jeff's movie but not much.I hope
you can find out something.Let me know if you have
any problems.<br><br>Brian
Brian , <br>I have not heard anything about it,
But if you wouldn't mind sending me the link to the
Kempo page you were on, and I can pull some strings and
see what I can find out for you (and the rest of
us..:) )<br>AngeliqueCeleste
Hey eveybody.I meant to do this a few days ago
but you know how that goes.I was on a kenpo website a
few days ago and they had something about Jeff doing
a movie.Has anybody heard anything about it?They
didn't have much about it on that website.<br><br>Brian
I did some checking around and no one has any
information available at this time as to when/if they'll be
releasing it on DVD.. I have seen that version of the movie
though. Had it on tape once, but it got recorded
over...(dang vcr's anyhow).. I've got some contacts looking
into it further though. so as soon as they hear
anything let me know, then I'll be SURE to pass it along
to everyone here.... Alright... And I'll have them
keep a look out for his other films too...
<br>AngeliqueCeleste
«Has anyone heard if "The Perfect Weapon" will
ever be released on DVD? »<br><br>That's a good
question. If it is, I hope they can throw in some "extras".
Missing/edited scenes (yes-there are a few-! About 2yrs ago I
was ready to go to a wedding for one of my relatives,
and on a cable station, as I was getting ready in my
hotel room, was "Weapon". I thought. Great-! Some time
to kill before I go down (my second cousin married
in a hotel by a minister; the reception was also
held there). Then, while in the flashback scenes, I
heard some dialouge I hadn't heard before. Dubbed? No,
whole new line! I looked and it was a scene of the
Sanders Bros. as youths at a pinball arcade. I'm thinkin-
WHERE DID THIS COME FROM!<br><br>I checked; I wasn't
seeing things. I also heard somewhere that there is a
few lines given to the Adult Jennifer (Marsika
Hargitay, now on "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit")...! I
have not seen that part of it, but I saw the kids in
the arcade scene.<br><br>Also, if they (assuming
Paramount does) put it on DVD- a nice little
featurette/tribute to the late Ed Parker would be good.<br><br>As
for other Speakman's films on DVD. I only know of
one, and it isn't a "Jeff Speakman" film. Jeff only
does a walk on as a security guard at the end of the
Jean Claude Van Damme 'Lionheart" flick (which was too
much like JCVD's "Bloodsport" for my taste.)<br><br>I
also think (although I'm not sure) THE EXPERT might
also be on DVD. If it is, MGM (who redesigned the
video package) would be the ones who issued it.
alright everybody, AngeliqueCeleste Here.
<br>Though I would put a bit of a challenge out for
you..<br> Lets see who can give the most links (they wanted
added to the club site) by the 31st of June... <br>Then
I figure to add ALL* the links By the first week in
July..<br>Just in time for THe 4th (I'm Hoping)...... <br>So
everyone send me your links, through the contact club
manager link...<br> That way I can void any duplicates...
<br>I'll Issue a prize for the winner with the most
LInks.. <br>(but it's a surprise, I don't even now what
yet, but i have something in mind...) <br><br>* Those
that will authorize us to link to their sites that is*
First Off let me start by saying thank you for
the credit in starting this club, like everyone else
here, I just wanted a place that I could share his
influence on everyone... <br>Also if you would like to give
me a list of some of the Pages you'd like this
listed on, I would be happy to take care of the rest of
the details... I'm afraid I just haven't had the time
to put into this club much lately... But that will
change, I work for myself now, not someone else. (yeah
for me).... Anyway, I would be happy to do more
advertising of our club... I only ask for suggestions from
you as to where you would like me to do
so......<br><br>You can e-mail me directly or post it
here....<br>Thank again everybody, nice to know we do all still
check back every now and again...<br>AngeliqueCeleste
Hello everybody.Sorry to see that no one has
posted anything since April.Maybe we can get the ball
rolling again.I just wanted to respond to your questions.
1.The first time I have ever heard of Jeff Speakman was
his movie"The Perfect Weapon".In my opinion the
greatest action film ever.His influence on me is not so
much that he is a action film star but a martial
artist[specifically a kenpoist].I am a 1st degree black belt in the
Shaolin martial arts and I have a little training in
kenpo and kajukenbo.Unfortunately due to job
responsibilities I am not an active student at this time but
hopefully that will change very soon.When that day comes I
will be continuing my study of kenpo. 2.I was hoping
someone had started a Yahoo Club dedicated to the great
Jeff Speakman and fotunately someone has.Salute. 3.I
have noticed that there is not many members and it has
been awhile since anyone has posted anything.Have you
tried posting anything on the different Kenpo Clubs on
Yahoo letting people know of this club?With your
permission I would be glad to although I will have to ask
permission from the founders of these clubs.Hopefully I will
be allowed to.Thank you for starting this club
because it is needed.Before I go I have a question.Has
anyone heard if "The Perfect Weapon" will ever be
released on DVD?
Yes I would be very interested in any information
you have on it.. You can e-mail me directly if you
like , just use the founder link.. or you could just
post it in here for our fellow members. Thank you for
any information you can pass along our way...
<br>AngeliqueCeleste
well, that sounds great. hope your not going to
leave us. I know there hasn't been much happening here
lately. And I'm sorry, If anybody has any ideas for ways
to keep things more "involving" please e-mail me or
post a message here. <br>Bye the way, I'd like to know
how everyone is doing, what they're up too. that
kind-0of stuff.. it's the Seasons
change-Updates...<br>AngeliqueCeleste
Hi every body. I just built my dojo page. I would
like all of you to visit it. It contains phylosophy,
history and some Jeff Speakman´s pics from the last time
he came to my
town.<br>www.geocities.com/alfaro_kenpo
Hi everybody, Sorry it's been a while since i've
given you an update, but my boyfriend and I are in the
process of moving and have had to deal with an unexpected
ilness, as for the pictures being put up, Our movers seem
to have "Misplaced"<br> our Scanner, so until we get
it replaced (or found) we are unable to scann
anything, I'm not sure if any of you have access to one,
but I do hate to see only one member doing all the
posting..(How ever we are VERY aprreciative to him for doing
it), We will understand if no one else does, but
please e-mail me so I know who can/can't do these
things, then I can arrange a contact list of those who
can, and we can arrange other things..<br>Anyone, hope
everyone is well, and has a safe Halloween... <br>Also our
chat session has been temporarily postponed, due to
our move, (and the lack of comunnication between
members)..<br>AngelqiueCeleste & JoshuaScott
I really would like to do it (post the BB pics)
but I am still holding out (and back)<br>because
..well.. I'm the only one here doin' that sort of
thing!<br>I would like to hold off and wait so others here
can have the chance of helping out this club<br>in
that manner.<br>Don't worry,though.<br>They will be up
there sooner or later.<br>Counting the cover and pic on
the inside editorial, I would say the pics should
take up an entire album of 24.
Ok.Its been awhile.<br>I note that no new pics are up<br>Hmmm...<br>Don't
worry<br>I'll wait a week maybe<br>After that<br>Yers truly will do the
deed...<br>-Darren
I'm genrally available most of the time exept for
thurs nights, some fri nights,<br>any chat time is good
chat time :)<br>Next time,I promise I'll wait 24hrs
max before I'll spill the beans on any
magazine,<br>I'll hold back with a "wait and see" frame of
mind.<br>Then again, on the flip side, what if no one noticed
but me?(that wasn't the case, but
still...)<br><br>Well the good news is that we all were on full alert,
maybe that says something.
Wow, you guys are really keeping track of
everything, Kuuipo don't feel to bad, My boyfriend and I both
run this club and we didn't get to be first either,
but it's alright, If we all work together , we can
truely make this a terrific club, We send (Patts on the
back) for those who were watching things so carefully,
I'm afraid due to recent medical conditions We have
been a little lax re: the club, but it is members like
all of you that make our club worth it...As for these
pictures, if any of you have a scanner, please feel free to
add them to the others for eveyone to enjoy, (Ours is
still <under the weather> sort-of-speak...)
<br>Thanks again to ALL of you for your Patience &
participation, Hope to see hear from you all
soon..<br>P>S> we are still triing to schedule a CHAt session
for the members, we would like everyones input on a
good date and time, so we can try to accomidate
everyone, (We are all members and all diserve the chance to
chat with each other> Please e0mail me directly
with your preference @
<br>AngeliqueCeleste@... or Angelique_Celeste@.... We would like
your input by the 15th of OCT. So we can try to have
time to schedule....<br>AngeliqueCeleste
Shucks... I just saw the new issue, zoomed home
to tell everyone in the club...and here I find
messages that beat me to it! I hoped I would be the first!
<br>It's a great article with alot of photo's of Jeff. I
hope they update that web site soon.
and is humbled.<br>this is the place i
mentioned...<br>but it is new,and you wont get much out of it but the
show's premise.<br><a href=http://www.theseekers.com
target=new>http://www.theseekers.com</a><br><br>how
can i make up for such a blunder?<br>I
know!<br>Picture time!
the current issue.Guess who is on the cover.Guess
who has an article about him?Guess whats on the
newsstands right this moment?<br><br>Anyway...there is is
some intresting stuff regarding Speakman's projects.
The Consultants<br>has been axed(!)after the pilot
and only a few eps filmed,due to the producers of the
series going bankrupt (so says an article sidebar) which
is only partially Ok cause we were spared Dennis
Rodman,I suppose. Which paved the way for Jeff to do
something else.Another TV series.With a twist:<br>its part
internet (?) name of the show is "The Seekers".For more
info on this go to its
website.<br><a href=http://www.seekers.com
target=new>http://www.seekers.com</a><br><br>As for "Consultants" I kind of hope
someone releases
the pilot/some re-edited eps into some kind of film
so they can put it on video.
I'm still working on my hp's which feature (in no
particular order) fave actresses,action star actors (that's
where the JS page comes in; I also got one forming on
Ray Park as well-who is a rising star in various
sci-fi films (like Star Wars:Episode 1,yeah, you know
who I mean...) and music,directors, and yers truly.
It's agenral deal, no shrines or anything (although
the one to Carrie Anne-Moss could be).<br> As for JS
pix, so far what I have up now is pretty much what you
see in the photo section -but I'll probaly get a scan
off "The Expert"video box (the one with the Orion tag
on it, not the surpringly current MGM reissuehis
film photos are not easy to come by; I'm still in
shock I even stumbled onto that still from "Perfect
Weapon" (the one with James Lew). Stay tuned...
Was hoping to get eeryones input re: our chat
session, what times and dates are good for them. <br>As
for this page your talking about (W/ Jeff) do you
have an address for it, I'd like to go check it out...
But I haven't posted recently .Workin on the HP,
(and yes, there is a page on Jeff Speakman...) but it
is still primarily being worked on. Other pages of
mine are complete or near it. Most of them are genral
info/pic pages. Also I am part of many clubs, but I try to
give equal time when I can.<br><br>A chat,eh? Sounds
good. When& what time...now thats the
trick...<br>-Darren
