The man behind the mask, sent in this bit about Samuel "The Man" Jackson and what he recently said about playing in STAR WARS EPISODE 2. You know... getting Jackson's ass out of that Jedi Council chamber.... arming him with a glowing ('vrrrrrrrrrrwwwweeerrrvvvvvvvvvrrrrrr') lightsaber hacking a few people in half.... Well man... That's a sight for sour eyes. "And you will know my name is Mace Windu when I lay my vengence upon thee!" Oh yeah... That's what I'm talking about...
Hi Harry,
I may have missed this, but I didn't see anybody mention Samuel L. Jackson's appearance (promoting "Rules of Engagement") on the Rosie O'Donnell Show last week. She asked him about Star Wars, and he related the story about how he didn't know if he was going to be in Episode 2 until he saw Lucas on her show. He also let a couple of good tidbits out. He said that the stunt coordinator from episode 1 (Nick Gillard) was also the stunt coordinator on "Shaft", and had given him warning that he was going to be doing some very physical jedi fighting in episode 2. Gillard let him know that he would be sending him a tape of moves to work on before he gets to the episode 2 set. Jackson said he was looking forward to cutting up some people with his lightsaber before the big "jedi war in episode 2"
