Samuel L. Jackson interview | Channel 4 News

Krishnan Guru-Murthy writes: 'I really didn’t want to fall out with Samuel L Jackson, but this was clearly the sequel to my Tarantino interview and I was going to have to ask him about violence in movies. [..] I told the PR handler the topics I wanted to talk about in advance in some detail and said: “Tell him, and make sure he’s prepared. I don’t want to have an argument, I want him to engage”.'

Jackson knew he was being asked ridiculous questions, but at no point did he lose his temper or become hostile. Not that his way of dealing with this is better or worse, it's just interesting. He shut KGM down without actually shutting him down.

    It's extra cool that he mentioned teaching kids gun safety instead of vilifying guns. I have a theory that much of the gun violence comes from kids that were taught that guns are for killing. They were never taught to respect the fire-arm. Most of them don't even know trigger discipline. They think, "I have all these negative thoughts, and my dad hid the gun under the bed, so I'm going to relieve my negative thoughts with the forbidden fruit, the gun". Parent your kids. Teach them responsibility and respect of life. “Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement.” -J.R.R. Tolkien

And something in particular he said stuck out to me is true, if a link is found, it's because they were paid to find a link much in a way that doctors were paid during the 60s to destroy any links between smoking cigarettes and lung cancer. They used stupid logic like "well this man never smoked a day in his life and he got lung cancer therefore smoking does not cause lung cancer." It was later discovered this man lived around smokers for most of his life and died of second hand smoking.

He's asking questions about violence in movies. He shouldn't be asking Quentin and Jackson. He should be asking John Wayne, Clint Eastwood and their predecessors.

Violence is a co-traveler of the human experience. And yeah, it's horrible and nasty and brutal and all sorts; no one should want violence when there's a healthy alternative.

    +Ricardo Murillo He's not a bad interviewer. He's just doing his job. First of all he's a news interviewer, not a light entertainment interviewer. Also regulation prevents this News Channel from doing purely promotional interviews, there has to be an element above and beyond that. The people that agree to get interviewed are informed of that before they agree to do the interview. The other thing is that, over here we tend not to put celebrities on a pedestal of reverence in the same fashion as America. The only things that get that level of irrational devotion from adults here, are football teams. F**k anyone that bad mouthes my team. Finally, I really like how SLJ handled the question, and actually answered it so eloquently. It shows that he's far more intelligent than Downey Jr, and Tarantino. He didn't just walk out, because he doesn't think of himself of a "paris hilton" in a man's body class diva like the other two. He's got more respect for himself than that. And he's definitely got my respect for that too.

    His explanation on what makes a role model puts him easily in the top of the most sensible and respectable people on the planet. Love that he shares my view of famous people as well. I never understood the hype and love for random strangers because they are famous. I don't know you, if you are a proper person and act accordingly I will treat you with the respect you deserve. But never because you were in a movie, reality TV or because your song is on the radio.

    Samuel L Jackson just eloquently handled this interview by his universal respect for others. He is a smooth talking genuine person and taught us a valuable lesson here: We are all responsible for ourselves and shouldn't rely on anyone else too much for protection and guidance.

    Jackson makes very good points time and again and each time Guru-Murthy jumps to another subject completely, creating a very strange moment. Or probably it's just HEAVILY EDITED. In who's favor I don't know.

    I’m glad the interviewer took this derivative line of questioning because without it we would never have been treated to Jackson’s incredibly sensical comments about violence.

    Now this man is an amazing interviewee, going to waste with a horrible interviewer. SLJ's points about education are the most educated I've heard in years. Also, the way he just kindly answered Guru-Murthy's questions about his stutter, with no resentment or anything... Man, that's respect. That's education, that's class. Major respect for this man. Also, really interesting that he said he tends to stutter a lot when saying the word "What", considering his most famous scene ever heavily involves repeatedly saying the word "What".

    The stuttering question at the end was absolutely unequivocally meant to get some sort of reaction out of Samuel. Cos of all the questions you can ask the legend that is Samuel L Jackson you want to ask about his “stutter” and Ive find that with This particular interviewer, it’s always towards the end where he tries to poke the bear and get personal, for instance with Robert Downey Jr it was about his drug addiction and his relationship with his father, with Quentin Tarantino he was essentially saying do you like watching real life violence.
