    Samuel L Jackson stormed onto the screen in "Jungle Fever" and hit a home run with Jules in "Pulp Fiction".
    Since then, he has pretty much been the same guy in every movie.
    I'll never forgive him for "Shaft". A period piece that meant NOTHING when they redid it with Jackson. A total blunder.
    Depp is a different guy in every movie, and takes on the edgy roles and does them exquisitely. I fault Depp for selling out and doing two more "Pirates" movies, but we all make mistakes (it's just that mine are not $20 Million Dollar paycheck mistakes).
    Winning breeds confidence. Losing breeds reality.

    Well said.

    Depp is a talented actor, but doesn't fit my personal definition of cool.

    Don't forget SLJ as Stacks in Goodfellas, and he also had a great death scene in Deep Blue Sea.

    Zip, I disagree with you on the Pirates thing. I feel like those movies define his career. He made that character, as the higher-ups wanted a "typical pirate" and he changed it to fit what he wanted to do.

    He's the one that suggested more Pirate movies, if I recall correctly. And he might be doing another one or two.

    However, SLJ should be the favorite of this whole tourney. He's a great actor (Depp might be better) and when you see him you just think "damn, that is one cool man."

    Mola said it pretty well in an email, "this is a tournament of cool, not necessarily a tournament of talent". (paraphrase)

    Sorry. I guess I've seen Samuel L Jackson do Jules one hundred thousand times too many.
    He tried to punk Pam Grier. That shit ain't right.
