Now he's upset that while the movie has a black guy, he's not really the right kind of black guy because he's not from the US.

Sam Please

Samuel L. Jackson criticizes British actors playing African-Americans

It is a great movie, what a tool for trying to take away from it. Douche.

I just saw him in a movie ... Mrs Something House for Peculiar Children. He sports a very nice set of teeth.

I like him as an actor, as a person I'd like to hit him with a bored.

Lmao what you did there......I sea it!!

It took me a while also.

He has always been an ass. Quite possibly those british actors hace this one card called talent in their hand, then make the pair with work ethic. A few might even get 3 of a kind by not being assholes.

Read his bio. There isn't much to like. Here's a snipet...

Jackson's early memories remained with him when he entered the historically black Morehouse College in Atlanta and became increasingly involved in the black-power movement. In 1969, his junior year, he protested the absence of blacks on the board of trustees by locking several board members in a building for two days, and was promptly expelled from the college.

Just another loud mouth clown who plays dress up for a living who thinks his opinions somehow matter more than the rest of ours. Trust me Sam, they don't.

Sam has a Kanye moment...

No fan here either but if you need to type cast a hostile loudmouth, Sam's your guy. Wild-eyed asshole or dead-eyed asshole, your choice.

Good for eating meat. Bad when you bite your tongue while chewing gum.

Think it's a combination joke tying into his complaint about a British actor playing an African American, because British people have bad teeth.

Ooh yes, he does look British!

Well, was it an African-British actor playing an African-American or just a British actor...maybe that's the problem Sam is having? We can't be having any non hyphenated identifiers frontin' on a brother

he's a racist asshole and he should leave the country like he said he would.

Thought he said he was going to leave the country if Trump elected. What is he waiting for? Let's get the other Hollywood celebrities who threatened to leave out also.

Let's try this one.

1. I like Sam Jackson's movies... Generally. "Snakes on a Plane" was bullshit, but generally, I like his movies.

2. That is one of the stupidest comments I have ever heard.

3. He is an actor. One I enjoy, but still, an actor. I'll be goddamned if I ever give a shit what a Hollywood actor says about ANYTHING, with the exception of talking about movies...

He is certainly entitled to his opinion just like every other American citizen.

I'm also entitled to dismiss his opinion for whatever reason I want (mostly because he is a goddamn actor and I don't care what he thinks about anything expect movies).

So if he keeps making good movies, then I will keep watching them. If he wants to become irreverent and put his ideals out there unwarranted... then i won't.

Like the vast majority of Hollywood folk, he needs to get over himself.

You want to be an entertainer, then entertain and shut up.

In the 90s, he rocked. Now he is overused and tired.
