Who’s the black private dick that’s a sex machine to all the chicks? Obviously, it’s Shaft, aka Law and Order SVU: The Movie. The second lesson in Samuel L. Jackson 101 is the beloved actor’s embodiment of the classic detective character originated by Richard Roundree in 1971. The Junkies look at Jackson’s take on the character, from his persona, his charisma and his collection of black leather coats. And they look at the movie’s bad guys, from the charming yet inexplicably Dominican Jeffrey Wright as Peoples, and Christian Bale (basically playing Patrick Bateman again) as the very punchable Walter Wade Jr. Then the Junkies fancast a 2022 Shaft TV series (with roles for themselves!) and rate the movie and Jackson’s performance, comparing both to Pulp Fiction in a way that might surprise you.

You can prepare for the next class by watching Samuel L. Jackson in Snakes on a Plane.
