Samuel L. Jackson was in "Goodfellas"...
 

I've watched that movie at least 20 times and not until watching it again last night did I realize Samuel L. Jackson was in it. :helpme

Stacks! !

What where? Is he gangmember that robed airport cash, then killed in his room?

Next time watch closer when he's shot; he's (totally obviously) staring at the bed in front of him for the blood spray to appear before falling over. Once seen, cannot be unseen. I mean I always look for it every time I see the movie.

No, he's the Jewish guy that runs the deli.

^ Harsh (and funny), but yeah, he is pretty much the only black guy in the movie. :1orglaugh

was a good movie his killer got was coming to him in the end. thats the end :evil-laug

WTF, he was in Pulp Fiction too! Who the hell was he in that??

i heard he was in snakes on a plane

he doesn't even have any lines in that one so easily missed heh

funny he got the same thing

"This drink is better than sex baby" :winkwink:

A lot of people also don't realize there are over 20 actors from Sopranos that were also in Fellas.

never watched the sopranos. I remember that kid from that show killed somebody or something.

Thanks, now I know that too... but useless info after all, give us something we can use to cash in :helpme :1orglaugh

I didn't remember that and really liked the movie!

A lot of people don't realize Dennis Farina wasn't in Goodfellas.

Make that coffee to go...

I think Goodfellas was the first time I'd ever heard the instrumental part of "Layla".

he was in coming to america as well

Didn't make it onto this list:

25 Celebrities You Never Knew Were In Classic Movies (And Shows)

Some other interesting ones there though.

The famous licks created and played by Duane Allman but for some reason credited to Clapton by 99.9% of listeners ?.. ?

i cant afford a Samuel L. Jackson... :(

do some hand modeling on cam :1orglaugh

LOL That "25 celebrities" list is a joke, with perhaps the two most ridiculous examples being Jack Nicholson and Steve Buscemi.

No, I'd heard the 'short' version of Layla loads of times, I mean the 'piano coda' that starts at 3:10:



Which still always reminds me of the scenes in Goodfellas, where they're finding bodies everywhere.

I better go and count :winkwink:

Richard Branson was in a James Bond movie. Guess which one.

^ Without cheating/checking, I'll say one of the Brosnan ones, since I don't think I've seen any of those and I don't remember Branson in a Bond (though I'm not really a Bond fan). Die Another Day?

I thought for a while after seeing Goodfellas, and after later seeing Farina in things like Get Shorty and Out Of Sight, that he had played Billy Batts. According to the internet/IMDB it's quite a common misapprehension. Funny thing is Frank Vincent, who did play Batts (and memorably wielded a baseball bat at the end of Casino) and was one of the Goodfellas in the Sopranos, doesn't really look anything like Farina.

Real perceptive group here at GYF

Exactly the thought that came into my head when you said he wasn't in goodfellas.

Just took a quick look again, and he does actually have a passing resemblance to Farina..... but only in that Godfellas scene. Other movies looks nothing like him.

Yeah, exactly. In Goodfellas there's a resemblance, or I can see how I originally thought it, and how other people did, but everywhere else they look different.

i like 'brown'... :2 cents:

One of my all time favorite movies!

Best movie. One of the few movies out there that I can watch over and over

Minor character.
