Ignorance, and narcissistically acting as if people's dreams of excess are more important than another species's existence.

What if my dream was to be both, like the hero Samuel Jackson played in Kingsman?

This is a great movie. Slater is the star and the glue that holds this movie together....but it's filled with some of the best scenes some of our greatest actors with rolls so small they are borderline cameo roles.

Samuel Jackson and Gary Oldman, this one with Slater and Oldman, Walken and Hopper, Brad Pitt and Gandolfini , Gandolfini and Arquette, Chris Penn and Tom Sizemore.

It didn't do well at the box office because they didn't know how to market the movie.

No idea why these "Related" tags never work for me.....

Actually, yes I do believe that. Since the lead up was (apparently, I have not seen it only read it) clips of Captain America, and "Working for Marvel, the Super Bowl commercial, did you get a lot of reaction to that Super Bowl commercial?"...I do believe that's what he meant, and was confused when Jackson angrily said "What commercial?!?"...and he seemed to second guess himself/his staff that it was in the Super Bowl. Only Jackson mentioned car or credit card commercials, the 'interviewer' mentioned Marvel, which had 2 Samuel Jackson Super Bowl commercials.
Today I've seen the clip re-played 1/2 dozen times, and they always removed the "working with Marvel" part in order to make the race baiting outrage make sense.
Seems cut and dry to me. Also hilarious...on both sides.
EDIT: Oh, and I call trailers "commercials"...I'm old and old school.
I never heard him admit he got them confused, only give a generic 'forced' apology that he was 'wrong'...I have not heard him say what he was wrong for, and I've looked.

2 more comments have been lost in the ether at this killed duplicate.

Yeah, take that Will Smith and Oprah. God forbid you guys can become superstars and multi-millionaires. You have to "stay genuine", and never change, even if it means staying dirt poor or mediocre. Conforming to some vague notion of "blackness" is more important than personal achievement.

And fuck Obama too, and Ursula Burns, and any other black person with talent, drive and determination, who happens to have charisma and appeals to other races. And god forbid someone undergoes personal transformation and change to succeed, especially in a society where the chips are stacked against them on day 1. No, it's better to know one's place.

Yeah, Barack, Ursula, Will and Oprah, even though you guys are actually transforming what it means to be african american and black by kicking down barriers, so that black kids can feel they can do anything and be anyone, FUCK YOU.

Will, you should still be rapping about Philly with the other ol' skool rappers on tour on the c-circuit. Oprah, you should still be doing "who's the father!!" shows and competing with Jerry Springer and Maury. Ursula, wasn't middle management enough? And Barack my man, you did much more good as a community organizer.

C, your premise and line of thinking is ridiculous. Can you explain to me what role is acceptable for a black man? You castigate Will Smith for being weak then complain about Samuel Jackson and Denzel Washington? These guys aren't flava flav for gods sake.

Please forgive me for not seeing your sarcasm, if that's what this is. >> ^chingalera:

When it comes right down to it, who really gives a fuck why Will Smith back-slapped a reporter, or why the reporter decided to kiss him. All that really matters is that Will Smith, one of the whitest black men in America, will never get any revenue from me, as I plan to download the film from many of my friends around the world who won;t shed a tear when Hollywood dies.
He can join the other list of sell-out negroes in Hollywood who have taken the $Bait$ and become masters of a weak stereotypical representation of the African-American male.
There's the ultimate hero negro: Denzel Washington, Jim Brown, (AKA, The Victim of Society Negro
The Superhero Negro: Wesley Snipes, Samuel L. Jackson, Laurence Fishburne
The Historical Hero negro Cuba Gooding Jr., Denzel Washington, Will Smith
The Sidekick negro-Sam Jackson, Morgan Freeman, Don Cheadle
Cop/Psychologist/Social Worker Negro-Sydney Poitier, Whoopi Goldberg
and then there's the , "Only African-American female to ever win an Academy Award for best actress getting ass-raped negress, Halle Berry
Fuck Will Smith, he's another total sell-out.

Funny how these remakes/sequels/prequels/reboots/reimagainings do kind of give you a SENSE of having watched a classic but without any of the emotion or gravitas that made it remembered in the first place. A 23 year old girl told me she liked Singer's Star Trek 'because it wasn't like sci-fi'. I passed a bunch of middle aged women a while back and caught the words "..doctor manhattan.."

Modern marketing is reshaping, monetizing and pushing EVERYTHING that was interesting, exciting and cult, into a sort of vanilla paste to be squeezed into the minds of people who have less and less ideas about life but who vaguely know that these titles are remembered for decades for some reason.. it seems some extended cartoony dance-fight for the boys and some saccharine melodramatic romance for the girls is all you need to get in there.

The world is run by inheritees.
They can't be expected to know how great things were done by their forebears.
They do however own the show and are forced by their own need for self respect to believe they are entitled to make creative decisions WAY beyond them.

What are they going to do? Imitate and resell the past till its worth nothing. Anyone want to take this bet: spiderman reboot reboot reboot by 2020, Lawrence of Arabia with Robert pattinson by 2015, and on and on until we all kill ourselves.
As long as they do Krull with Samuel Jackson I'll go quietly.

Reminds me of when we bought a house. Had septic problems in the first few months and also hot water problems, and was working with a friend to try to get it figured out. This one time I wasn't thinking and instead of slowly opening the septic clean-out valve cover in the cellar to ease the pressure I just twisted it open quickly. Just had enough time to instinctively turn my head (with a slow motion "noooooooooo") and caught a blast of sewage upside my head. And since we had no hot water I could only use a garden hose outside in the freezing cold to wash off. All I could do was quote Samuel Jackson "if this aint some fucked-up repugnant shit". That smell haunted me for the next 6 months.
