I friggin' love Samuel L. Jackson. He just looks like he is having THE MOST fun in every movie he's in. Like, I've never had that much fun doing anything in my entire life.
Most of you know him as Nick Fury from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a role that was literally designed for him back in Mark Millar's The Ultimates. And he knocked that role out of the park; from his first cameo to his future performance in Captain Marvel, we can be assured. My favorite performance of his is either in the first Avengers film or in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Both gave him a greater amount of screen time than his normal cameo allotment.

But the role where Jackson seemed to have the most fun was as the villainous Richmond Valentine in Kingsman: The Secret Service. That movie was awesome. And Valentine was absolutely hilarious as the millennial version of a James Bond villain. His bold, lisping, joyous performance still makes me smile.

I don't want to talk about his part in The Spirit as The Octopus. It was bad, let's leave it at that.
