Quantcast



Recently, Sony sat down and chatted it up with a bunch of film-industry people I've never heard of. And Samuel L. Jackson.

The topic was supposedly Heavy Rain, although I'm not sure the people being interviewed knew that. Instead, they speak on the broad theme of the upcoming Quantic Dream title: "How far would you go for love?" Samuel L. Jackson's answer is clear.

"Not very," he says as he scratches the back of his neck.

As to what he'd do to the person who abducted his daughter, the actor has it all mapped out.

"If that happened to my daugher," he explains, "I'd probably be spending money for somebody in prison to say, you know, don't kill him. But make sure you f*ck him every day... whisper my name in his ear while you do it."

Heavy Rain is out this week, and Samuel L. Jackson is going to ignore all of the button prompts when he plays it.

He wouldn't need to go far for love. All the bitches auto-love Samuel L Jackson.

I don't get this article.

Is this more bad press for Heavy Rain? I don't care what people says about this game (good or bad), just let the NPD numbers be the judge and make fun out of it later. You have too be careful with this, it could come and bite your ass later. But I doubt that though, let's get a laugh out of it.

Samuel L. Jackson is a bad motherf#(e&!!

What he describes in the 5th paragraph is pretty close to my definition of love.

I love how everyone's trying to be very polite and introspective (many of them have scarves) and then Sam says that. :D

I think if I knew it was Samuel L Jackson's daughter I would be killing, I'd just stop and give up crime. He is one scary and intimidating man.

Umm... I think you might be reading a bit too much into this.

On topic, note to self: do not kidnap Sam Jackson's daughter.

"As to what he'd do to the person who abducted his daughter, the actor has it all mapped out."

Who the fuck is in charge of these questions? That's a really bizarre thing to ask someone.

I don't know, I'm just thinking you maybe went out of context to the real meaning of the video that had a real purpose of promoting Heavy Rain.

But I don't mind, I had a laugh about the article. By the way.... this needs more snakes :P

lolwut? nick just described what was in the video.. how was he talking about its pro's or con's? you crazy man.

on to topic, why aren't there any females talking about love? It feels like sony saw the trailer for Brief Interviews with Hideous Men and was like you know what that would make a great plug for heavy rain. Oh sony you so indie.
