Default Samuel Jackson will do anything at this point

I get worried if If a month has gone by and Samuel Jackson hasnt made a new movie. That would actually be ok if he was picking decent scripts. At this point I dont think he gives a shit anymore. He'll just do anything that someone hands him. There's no "OK I have to think about this. Is this really something I want my name attached to? Is this really something I want to be remembered for?"

imagine quentin tarantino pitching pulp fiction to you. it's going to sound a little nuts. and you're paired up with travolta? he's a total has-been. yeah, sam hasn't been too picky for awhile.

i've seen him in interviews where he basically says "look, i was a crackhead. then i got into acting. so i'm going to do pretty much anything i feel like doing because it's better than being a crackhead."

yeah if you come from that I guess just working your ass off helps you stay busy and not get distracted and relapse.

catherine wheel doesn't just post his thoughts, his every post is a statement that is a punch in the stomach of everything that's seemingly normal and established. the impression that these posts leave on netphoria is just smashing. you'll never know when catherine wheel will make his next post, you do you know that your life will never really be the same again.

I didn't realize til recently he's only a year younger than my dad. His best days are behind him and now he's having some fun, who can blame him?

He sort of reminds me of Christopher Walken in that way. He'll do pretty much anything, no matter how shitty it looks.

He is, though why he signed on to do crap like Balls of Fury will forever boggle my mind.

michael caine once said he'd do anything that paid him. he's an actor and he gets hired to do jobs, just like any other career.

Oh, yeah he was really good in that. I really like Christopher Walken and he is one of those few actors who will get me somewhat interested in a movie even if it looks like it will be terrible.

I heard somewhere that C. Walken is in negotiations to play Ozzy in the movie version of the story of Motley Crue (Dirt). Granted I can't really stand the Crue but from what some dude I work with was telling me the book would make for an interesting movie.

That is what I was thinking but this older dude who partied through the 80s tried to convince me that it would be worth watching. I'm torn
