There should be an Oscar category called the Samuel L. Jackson Award for Acting in a Terrible Movie.
I thought about it during Secret Invasion about how he elevates material (other good actors in that show did too, like Olivia Coleman). But his monologue in Deep Blue Sea is so randomly great, and the movie is so dumb. I think it must be harder to be good in a bad thing than be good in a good thing. So he's actually better than a lot of people who have won Oscars in competition. (Still randomly mad his lifetime Oscar wasn't presented on TV.)
Imagine someone else saying the line "Hold onto your butts" in Jurassic Park.
