Samuel L. Jackson thinks he should have won an Oscar for his role in Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction.

“My wife and I went to see Bugsy. Damn! They got nominated and I didn’t? I guess black folk usually win for doing despicable sh*t on screen. Like Denzel [Washington] for being a horrible cop in Training Day. All the great stuff he did in uplifting roles like Malcolm X? No — we’ll give it to this motherf*cker. So maybe I should have won one. But Oscars don’t move the comma on your cheque — it’s about getting asses in seats and I’ve done a good job of doing that,” he said to the Sunday Times.
