the middle initial is there bc you cannot have a duplicate name in the screen actor's guild, there mighta been someone named samuel jackson already on the SAG list from like 1922, also middle initials really give a pop and ZING to some people's names, like William H. Macy (imagine that without the H, you can't can you??)

Nor bad movies, poker/bank commercials can derail him from his ascension. After Kingsmen, he'll be in at least 3 more major movies this year in 2015. More if Hateful Eight finishes up, and if they slipped him into Ant-Man. Swallow his ubiquity because Sammy Jack is unstoppable.

Zzulu posted:did his ancestors burn a lot of fish or what This interesting surname of English origin is a locational name from Fishbourne in Sussex, which is recorded as Fiseborne in the Domesday Book of 1086, and Fishburn in Durham, deriving from the Old English pre 7th Century "fisc" meaning "fish", plus "burna" "stream", hence "fish stream".

Also the way he says "Honey! Where's my supa-suit?!" in the Incredibles was funny and good.

Also "Everybody hold on to your butts!" was the best part of Jurassic Park. I bet he ad-libbed that line (or "mad-libbed" it, as Sam Jackson would say)

the only time he was bad was when he was in that movie directed by george lucas, the one everyone was bad in because the dialogue and characterization for every actor was terrible

Samuel L is boss ballin, dunno what y'all talking about. E: This too. Still use this line when the need calls for it spooky girlfriend posted:Also "Everybody hold on to your butts!" was the best part of Jurassic Park. I bet he ad-libbed that line (or "mad-libbed" it, as Sam Jackson would say) laurence fishburne is a stage name. his first role was in apocalypse now and he goes by his real name, though i can't think of what it is atm

Sam Jackson is an unabashed nerd and that's why he wanted to be in Star Wars, and any movie having to do with super-heroes, from Unbreakable to the Incredibles to every Marvel movie.

Yeah, the coach should really pull him out of the game. He's been throwing meatballs for two innings now. Ridiculous. Get off the mound, Sam!
