Samuel L. Jackson: Secures a Ten Movie Deal with Marvel
Samuel L. has reportedly signed a ten movie deal with Marvel, according to contactmusic.com. That’s pretty cool if you ask me, that means we’ll see Sam in - wait…
WHAT?!?
A ten movie deal?
Okay, let’s run through this:
The First Avenger: Captain America. (1) A possible Iron Man 3. (2) Thor? (3) Avengers? (4) S.H.I.E.L.D? (5) Another Hulk film? (6) Captain America 2? (7) Thor 2? (8) Avengers 2 (9) A possible Black Widow spin off (OH PLEASE, OH PLEASE!) (10).
Okay, that’s ten. At first I was thinking 10 was a number that could not be met. But clearly it can be met (snicker). If all the stars align, all these movies get green lit and the bottom doesn’t fall out of a seemingly airtight comic book movie genre.
Sam is currently 62 years old. So by the time his tenth film comes around he’ll only be, what, 68 years old? I’m assuming minor bit parts in some of the films so he could kick out more than one a year.
By the time we get to Avengers 2 we’ll have Nick Fury with a eye patch and a walking cane. Woot!
Is it possible he’d show up in the possible Daredevil remake? I guess if can put him in Daredevil we can put him in the Ant-Man movie, etc.
What do you think about this news? Good for Marvel? Definitely good for Sam?

Samuel L. Jackson is the man! I love practically every role he's done -- even in the crappy movies. Glad to see him make a mark in the cinema versions of the Marvel Universe.

Sammy J was a rubbish Nick Fury. *steps back to avoid torrent of abuse* let me state my point. Sammy J does not "act" as such. he simply plays himself. In every role he plays. Same character rehashed over and over. Slightly angry, bug-eyed, pursed lips. 10 movies? Christ.
Not as bad as Scarlet playing Black Widow though. In fact, fuck Iron Man 2. The more I think about it the more I realise I hated that film. Should have been a buddy movie but noooooo. Rubbish.

Now see, I need to go see Iron Man 2....ugh....where did the summer go?
Scarlett wasn't a good BW? Really? I have a hard time believing that.
I mean look at the evidence: http://www.esquire.com/cm/esquire/images/ScarlettJohansson11.jpg
Oh you say? A hottie does not make a good BW if poor acting is involved?
I say rubbish! I love hotties!
Was she bad though? Ugh.
Hey Nick, cool blog. Adding it to my RSS feeds now. +1 my friend.
I need to start writing about comics again. But first I need something exciting to write about.
Ho hum....
