Saints Be Praised. Sam Jackson is Nick Fury!

In a bizarre example of art imitating life imitating art, Samuel L. Jackson, the only man that anyone would ever want to play Nick Fury from Marvel Comics, is indeed playing Nick Fury in the Iron Man movie.

If you weren't already intreiged with the miscasting that somehow works of Robert Downey Jr. (instead of Scotchity-Scotch-Scotch, will it be Cokity-Coke-Coke?), this is enough to make me see it. The badassness will positively ooze off the screen.

Oh, and for the record, Jackson has so far played a Jedi, a Tarantino hitman, a supervillain, Shaft, and now a superhero. Squee!
