Another Reason Why Samuel L. Jackson Rules
"I come from the theater. I believe in talent. So, no, I don't see Paris Hilton going anywhere in Hollywood." - Samuel L. Jackson to E! Online. From your lips to God's ears, Sam, from your lips to God's ears.
And speaking of Samuel L. Jackson, a new Kangol store opened on the Upper West Side, next to the at around 190 or 194 Columbus Avenue. Gothamist was momentarily tempted to buy a Kangol cap, but then we were flummoxed as to whether we truly were Kangol material or if Samuel L. Jackson's coolness was making us reach too high. We'll take a poll at the Happy Hour tonight.

Of course, I won't be making it to the happy hour.
Since I only know you digitally, I'd have to say that if there was an online equivalent to gear, than you'd definatly make the cut.
Enjoy your happy hour. I'll be sand bagging down here. Not to be mistaken with "tea bagging." I won't have to teabag this month ... I have the rent money.
Okay, I won't be sand bagging either. I live on the seventh floor.
Cheers
Samuel Jackson is so NOT cool, he stopped being cool after pulp fiction, where every character he plays uses the same "i'm a southern baptist preacher" tone of speaking...its like it doesn't matter what comes out of his mouth anymore, it all sounds exactly the same.
And his award show appearances all have some point in the evening where he, or someone else talks about what a badass m..f..ker he is....
He's like the black version of Al Pacino....
Yeah, Sammy L. is believing his own hype about being a bad motherf***er these days. Betya I can knock that Hollywood cupcake out with one punch.
Fo real!
I thought he did a good job at being a quiet, introspective, down-on-his-luck guy in "Changing Lanes." It was a nice break from the corn rows-and-tough-guy routine.
I still love Samuel L. Jackson. He, unlike Pacino, hasn't had massive plastic surgery.
Did anyone see him in Caveman's Valentine? On the whole he was fine, but sometimes he seemed to lose track of his character and slip back into badass Sam Jackson by accident.
i wish, i wish, i *wish* that samuel l. jackson would start wearing his kangols correctly. his current hat is in the yo-check-out-the-ol'-receeding-hairline position, rather than the hey-THAT'S-why-these-hats-never-go-out-of-style straightforward position.
I really loved SLJ's limping, gheri-curled self in "Unbreakable," falling down the stairs with his glass cane and all.
wow, I almost forgot about his role in unbreakable. now that I think about it, that was one of the best villains I've ever seen in a film. he's great.
"He's like the black version of Al Pacino...." I think that's a compliment. I still haven't gotten tired of Pacino's over the top pontificating. one of my favorite ridiculous/incredible moments is when he played opposite keanu reeves in "the devil's advocate." keanu asks, "Who are you??" Pacino, arms sweeping wide goes, "I have soooo many names...!" hilarious and great at the same time. I love that line. I love those guys.
hasn't samuel been in some bad movies lately?
