Part 2: • Aries Spears: Chewbacc...
--------
In this clip, the topics of Hollywood greats Denzel Washington and Samuel L. Jackson were discussed, along with their impacts on film. Aries Spears pointed out the shared longevity, vast body of work, and immense talent between the two actors. The conversation veered toward who may be the better actor, with mentions of Washington's "Equalizer" movie series as proof of his unimpeachable acting skills. Jackson, on the other hand, was touted for his historical plethora of roles. Aries Spears disagreed with Michael Jai White's view on the topic, which stated that Samuel L. Jackson could play any of Denzel Washington's roles. Washington's acting depth was highlighted, citing a range of his roles, from civil rights leaders to drug kingpins and his ventures into Shakespeare. Despite the debate, it remained clear that both Washington and Jackson were respected icons in the film industry.

Aries is a Pedophile. You support Pedos now Vlad?
I think the issue is Denzel WUDNT play those slave ass roles Samuel L Jackson played..
There is no way in the world Sam Jackson could take the same roles as Denzel. Two TOTALLY different actors & styles
Yes there is a reason why both actors were chosen for the films they were in. One has nothing to do with the other. Two different styles of acting. Both masters of their craft.
Why is this even a topic. Seems stupid to me
Exactly
This!
@@RichWeigel Most definitely
Aries' argumentative skills are ac second to none. Even if you don't agree the way he structures everything and comes with mad examples is amazing.
Agreed. I think a lot of top tier comedians are highly intelligent. He's definitely a smart man.
Very well put and good observation. One thing about him that some guests on here don't have it's at least a logical explanation to support their perspective. Although I don't always agree, once he explains it's more like "oh, I see where he's coming from".
That's what separates him....but can also make some people write checks, they ass can't cash lol
he is having an amazing Renaissance.
AGREED BRO.
One thing about Aries, if he’s got an opinion about something, he won’t be afraid to share and defend it with unwavering fervor
Yo, I wonder what his opinion on pedophilia is.
facts
@@bjt81366weird guy
Even when he's embarassingly wrong.
@bjt81366 let it go, it was a miscalculated psa.
I love Samuel L. Jackson, but Denzel is just on another level with his acting versatility and skills.
Denzel is the same person in every movie
Not true
Denzel and SLJ are both powerhouse talent, difference is SLJ had taken more risks with his roles and his movies have a wider range. As good as Denzel is, his movies typically involve him solving a mystery/saving the day, being a cop or portraying a real life person. But SLJ's strength is also his weakness because hes been in some pretty bad movies which are also part of his legacy.
The Hurricane, Philadelphia, Crimson Tide, The Siege, Remember The Titans, Courage Under Fire, The Great Debaters, Flight, The Pelican Brief & Antwone Fisher are all roles that require the gravitas and controlled power that Denzel is able to bring contrasted with his ability to hit some of the softer and more subtle notes required. While Jackson has great range and the ability to be dynamic and get real loud he lacks the control that Denzel has over his performances. It's like comparing a Hellcat with a Porsche, the Hellcat is as fast or faster than many Porsche models in a straight line on a drag strip, but if you raced them on a track with a lot of twist and turns and straightaways the Porsche will win every single time.
Like you said, the gravitas is the difference. I love both, but Sam just doesn't have the same commanding presence.
"he lacks the control" TF you say? Have you seen Unbreakable? Resurrecting the champ? The One(can't remember the title)where he plays a mentally ill guy living in a cave? Even his voice acting work as Afro Samurai. Yes Denzel has some intense impactul roles but the no1 quality for an all time great actor is versatility and the ability to shape-shift
Exactly
its litreally the exact opposite! i like the break down.... but its literally the exact opposite.. so im interested how you came to that conclusion. i love the overvation, but in reverse lol. i like denzel as an actor more then samuel L.. but samuel L is killen him on range. .. not even close
@@adamoxenthinking Samuel L can play the same roles of Denzel is crazy y’all just be wanting to argue anything Samuel L can’t play Malcolm X or Hurricane first off you gotta have the look and Sam can’t display emotion like Denzel both great but stop it
Aries took over for Godfrey!
I welcome it. Gladly.
I’m good for it
I’m here for itn
Aries is my nigga he’s very underrated it’s ashamed but I’m giving my nigga his flowers he’s one of the goats besides Godfrey when it comes to impersonating 💯
@matinvanburen4578 And Lord Bossie is the new Jamar
It's not a question of if they can switch roles. It's more a question of if the movie would've had the same impact. Like with Sam Jackson's style I think Training Day would've been more comedic than how Denzel played it. And movies like Book of Eli, Ricochet, Fallen, Out Of Time, were def more suited for Denzel.
The only Denzel character I despised was Troy in Fences. What a terrible man.
On the other hand there are a several roles when I was glad Sam’s character got his e.g. Stephen, and the shark movie.
@@SmartDave60 But it's because he played Stephen without a lick of "charm" about him on purpose and he was so slimy yet still managed to make us laugh and piss us off all at the same time. It was a genius performance. We didn't want to see Sam get offed because he was annoying in the role, he MADE us want to see him killed. Denzel intentionally put himself earlier in his career up as his eras Sidney Poitier which is why he always found a way to make us sympathize with his characters and at a certain point he finally ventured outside that comfort zone with roles like Training Day and Flight, where he ironically got the most praise. People think he can't do comedy because he's never really tried. I definitely think if Denzel wanted to he could...
@dawb86 I agree with Denzel being able to pull off comedy. I think with the right script, it could be his most acclaimed role.
@@inmyhumbleopinion_ it would have to be something like Sidney Poitier and Bill Cosby from the 70s.
Obviously Denzel playing the Poitier straight man role.
If sam played it first you would say the reverse
Aries is the best guest. He drops knowledge and funny at the same time.
Aries knows his filmography much respect to him to bring logical arguments to the table of his interviews 🎉
💯
Off the spot too lol
This the best and healthiest Aries looked in years big up brotha
your a man complimenting another man on his looks make me think you would try a man
@@itsthecrimbossYou must be a kid? A man well a real man can give another man a compliment and not be gay. Wake up my guy!
@@itsthecrimboss You’re exactly what’s wrong with the culture and why we don’t compliment each other so instead just hate on each other for no reason your mama raised you to be a whole entire BITCH!
@@OnPIRUCan I interest you in the pleasures of being gay?
@@itsthecrimbossBro, he said "healthiest". There's nothing suspect about that.
I’m not sure Denzel could pull off the Django character! 😂
something tells me youre not sure much on anything
The part was made for him he declined it
Some roles are degrading, that was one of them!😮💨
@@itsthecrimboss something tells me your daddy should have just got some head, would have had one less idiot in the world!
@@traelmer5262 no it wasn’t! 😂
Denzel is Versatile. He makes you feel those emotions throughout any role. He's almost like Tupac in that terms. Not saying Sam ain't great but Denzel is legendary.!
They’re both versatile. But yeah, Denzel is definitely the better actor.
Samuel L Jackson was brilliant in Hateful Eight. Couldn't see Denzel killing it as Samuel in that one. Brilliant!
Hateful eight, Django, Pulp fiction, this list goes on. You can replace Sam with Denzel but not vice versa.
"Death stare with the stroke lips" 😂😂😂😂
Great actors make the role feel like it was written specifically for them. I couldn’t see Denzel playing Jules from ‘Pulp Fiction’ like Samuel did it and I couldn’t see Samuel playing Malcolm like Denzel did. That being said, they’re both masterful performers so they could have played each other’s roles but the dynamics of the performances would’ve been different so we’d have appreciated them for different reasons than the versions we got….
Pay Charleston White !
The Jules role requires comedy.
Not Denzel’s strong suit.
@@SmartDave60 A lot of people don't know that originally Quentin was going to put Paul Calderon in the Jules role. (The guy that played the bartender in the film, "Yo, Vincent Vega. Our man in Amsterdam. Jules Winfield, our man in Inglewood. Get your asses on in here!") Don't get me wrong, Paul's another good actor but if he seemed like he could play the part to QT, I would be amazed to think Denzel couldn't at least do a decent job in the role lol....
I don’t think Denzel could have pulled off the Jeri Curl , like Sam Jackson 😂😂😂😂
@@jamsjr44 I wouldn't have thought Sam could've pulled it off.... before I actually saw him do it lol. If Denzel could do Roman J. Esquire with that afro, he could do a jheri curl rocking gangster. 🤣
Both of them are two of the greatest actors of all time. they do different things equally great
Denzel Washington as Malcolm x was the finisher for any argument against that man's acting skills.
The lines that he had to speak as well as the emotion behind those lines.... amazing.
He don’t do acting on screen like that since the 90s. Other than a few films
@@juniegyllenhaal3937 Stop the cap. You out your mind...
@@juniegyllenhaal3937 he acts according to the script ya know? Malcom x is an icon, he stepped up to the plate
@@Wh4L205 lmao all these scripts ain’t the same.
@@TonyBambino every movie he get mad and slaps the table. Or hold his head straight up tilting it back just a lil when he’s getting serious
Only Denzel can get busy like he did in “Man on Fire” 😂
I saw Aries at a comedy club in Baltimore about 3 years ago and he absolutely killed it. He is raunchy AF and we all loved it. Uber talented and should be given more specials. Funny af dude and he's right, I always click on his interviews with Vlad. Much love
Ironically, not only was Samuel L Jackson at one point considered for Denzel's role in Training Day, his voiceover role in the game Grand Theft Auto was inspired by the same police officer that inspired Alonzo Harris in Training Day, Raphael Perez
know what gahdammit you got a point. Didn’t consider that til now
@@JJones-oe1rw crazy, right? I never finished San Andreas and never knew about the Rampart Scandal until RUclips
Wait so Officer Tenpenny was inspired by training day?
@@royalty843 not Training Day directly. The same cop inspired Alonzo Harris and Tenpenny. Raphael Perez
That is a very good point, he was savage in GTA too hahaha him as as Tenpenny made the story feel so real from the go
Aries does the best interviews!!!! The Equalizer 3 was good! Nobody can touch Denzel
No way Sam could replace Denzel in Mo Better Blues, He Got Game, Training Day, The Hurricane,
Factsssss
Disagree... Sam could smash all of those roles. All of them.
I could see Sam in He got Game and Training Day
That’s somewhat his character
he got game for sure fallen i will do you one better morgen freeman can play both their rolls
@@lennyash1505 hell naw 🤣🤣
Sam Jackson is one of my all-time favorite actors. This isn't to downplay his talent in any way. However, the roles Denzel portrays demand a more sophisticated appearance and demeanor. They both possess distinct on-screen characteristics that set them apart.
“To he-ith not be-ith, muthafucka”…..😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You can definitely make the argument that Sam Jackson has shown a lot more versatility/ range over the years, but I still think Denzel's highest high points are still far superior to anything Sam has done. That's not a diss tho, they are both legends in their own regard.
samuel l jackson can play pretty much any role, he is one of those actors just like denzel where they are always enjoyable to watch on the big screen no matter what movie they are in
Denzil acting in his movies hit harder…
Denzel also did "2 Guns" with Mark Wahlberg. That was a action comedy.
Denzel had me ctfu 😂😂 in Flight at the end when he was like "I drunk the bottle...I'm drunk right now"😅😅
It’s just different because Denzel can play a bad character and you still root for him to win because he’s always likable. Sam Jackson can legit make you want him to lose if he plays a bad guy 😂. Just different types of actors.
Exactly.
You still liked him in Training Day.
His charm.
Can’t pull that off w/ a face like Sam’s.
You didn't want Denzel to win in 'Training Day' either though lol...
@@dawb86 when the Russians shot em 8 thousand times I was like was that necessary?🙂
@@SmartDave60 lol oh but you would've been cool with it if it was Sam Jackson though? 😂
@@dawb86 yes🙂
In the late 70s early 80s when they were all struggling young actors they were in a club of sorts. Sam Jackson, Denzel Washington, Robert Townsend and a couple of other black struggling actors. Sam Jackson and Denzel were actually in a soldier story on Broadway, but Sam Jackson wasn't in the movie. They are both incredible legendary actors though🤷🏿
Yep, David Alan Grier too
It’s a big difference between can somebody play the role and can somebody embody the character who they are portraying so well that you start to believe that the actor is no longer acting and that the character is who they actually are.
Forget all that Denzel and Sam need to do a movie together 💯
Denzel is considered a leading man actor where Jackson is a character actor he has more diversity leading man actors just have to play themselves most of the time character actors have to completely transform
Samuel plays himself in most of his films.
@@marcocalderon4660 look again.
Aries looking healthy. Big ups for taking health seriously
I believe the put make up on him he said it once.
*Aries Debating MJW* on Spears and Steinberg would go CRAAAAAAZY!
i think what jai white was saying is that in terms of ability to perform in all genres of films Jackson has had better than Washington. but Denzel has more box office success than Samuel
NO! Samuel L. Jackson has haul in more money at the box office than any actor in the history of cinema!
Denzel was actually up for the Pulp Fiction role first. He turned it down. Denzel has said Sam owes him for that as it was his breakout role.
Michael Jai, White gets away with saying a lot of shit sometimes… usually no one calls him on it, and I’m glad he did this time. Cause what was even the point in that conversation… both are undeniable legends, and don’t need to be compared.
True. Michael Jai White could've done a couple of Wesley's roles from the 90s and even some of Will's parts. (I, Robot for example) Doesn't make him a better or worse actor, good actors can do capable jobs in good roles, that's all...
So does John Sally
It’s opinion and ain’t none y’all go test him he would kick y’all ass
@@jamarnabors9393 See, here's the thing bro: Mature men do not hear somebody have a difference of opinion and immediately go into their 'I'll beat yo ass' bag. While he can beat most men's ass MJW doesn't come off as one of those types of clowns that would want to because someone disagrees with something he said.
@jamarnabors9393 what's ur point? U won't bust a grape in WELCH'S backyard kiddo. Run along and let the grown-ups talk.
Please keep ‘em coming these are good for the years thanks vlad and Aries
I used to watch Vlad obsessively when Godfrey used to come on. Then I found Aries on Vlad and find myself binge watching him.
Aries has the same type of energy like in the interviews Godfrey did.
Both amazing actors but to counter MJW’s point. Most of the iconic movie roles Samuel performed were created specifically for him so it is hard to swap him out for Denzel.
I hate how many sleep on Laurence Fishburne . He steps in character great
agreed
I think he gets slighted only because Sam and Denzel have sooooo many roles
Both legends in their own right. Some roles could be interchangeable but some roles I couldn't see the other playing it at all.
Best answer.
What has to be considered with regards to both Denzel and Samuel is that each iconic role that they played was woven to fit each one's character traits. Although there are some roles that each could have played, there are those that are best suited for that particular actor. They are both, in my opinion, legends in their own right...
I don’t think Heath would’ve played that deep dark depressing Joker like Joquain Phoenix did. He fkn killed it.
Jack Nicholson in Anger Management is golden
Put some respect on Sam jacks name. I love Denzel but Sam is just so versatile
Samuel Jackson and Denzel Washington are living icons
Denzel is the 🐐 man. He can play all roles. Sam is definitely talented, but Denzel got him
This man said Ben Affleck was the best Batman?!? That should be the caption. He tripping
Glad you were saying that heath ledger wasn’t the best joker. You’re out of touch, my man.
If they played each other's roles, it will be totally different performance, period.
Ledger’s Joker was true to the iconic character we all have grown to love…phoenix’s joker was humanized to the point where you can almost felt bad for The Joker. Different lanes like 2pac and Biggie but so great they will always be compared 🥷
Phonenix Joker was depressing asf
This is not really fair because they both have different personalities. They both would have turned down certain roles because of that.... It not always about action... It's really about connecting with the character to the point where it is very very believable...
There is NO way Sam Jackson can play on Training Day. That role was meant for Denzel!
:45 "When he gives you the death stare and the stroke lips," bruh LOLOL
Imagine Samuel Jackson in Training Day
Would be ass
I think he can definitely pull that off
I'm standing with Aries on this topic
Samuel couldn’t play John Q FACT
Denzel can’t play Samuel in Black Snake Moan Fact
Seriously??? Have you seen beloved???
A time to kill?
Samuel is broadway trained. Like live acting
Not only could Sam play John Q, but he'd do a much better job than Denzel. Shit, he already played that role essentially in The Negotiator, opposite Kevin Spacey. John Q would've been a walk in the park for him. Sam is naturally intense and builds drama like no other.
Samuel L is more versatile in his role play, he can dip in many roles and character, but Denzel is more believable as an actor, he embodies the character more than any actor I can think of. Denzel edges it because of that.
I thought Vlad was the dean from How High when he almost said "BUFU"? Lol
Michael Jai White got a lot of L takes so I'm not surprised. No way in hell Sam Jackson can do exactly what Denzel has done. There is a difference between making a lot of movies and making GREAT movies. Sam Jackson is a Tier 2 when it comes to the greatest actors of all time, in which Denzel is part of. I agree with Aries 👍
Pulp Fiction, hateful eight, Die Hard, Django, Unbreakable, jackie Brown, Jingle fever, Do The Right thing. Those are great movies you clearly don't know what you are talking about. There is no way in hell you just called sam jackson a tier two actor.
*jungle*
@@sibusisogumede94was he the lead actor or stringing along....
Aries looks like he's been awake since he was born 🤣😂😭
I don't miss an interview. I be like when is the full interview coming out!🔥👍🏾💯
They both great!!! you can't take nothing away from either one of them. They should have many awards more than anybody!!!
Denzel is in a class all by himself. No comparison ever
Black, white Spanish or any human ever there is no comparison
Indeed
Will on his A game is in that class
@@juniegyllenhaal3937 nah big dawg .. he’s close tho. Him and Tom hanks
@@juniegyllenhaal3937no stop
Samuel L. Jackson is the actor your favorite actor loves. Like if you ask any actor in Hollywood who they admire, his name always comes up because of his incredible range. Not many actors have his range. Sam and Denzel are icons. At this point in their careers I doubt they even compete for parts very much. Directors pretty much write parts for them.
He does not have incredible range. He is the same guy in almost every movie
@marcocalderon4660 If you believe that, you're obviously not familiar with his work.
@@ignaciofuentes2642 I’m familiar with his work. Only a few SJ movies he wasn’t the same person. Jules and Shaft were the same person. Coach carter and Abel Turner are the same person. The Dad from fresh was just a detoxed mature version of Gator. Many more and Denzel would never do Snakes on a plane. Denzel could play gangster, doctor, politician, cop.
@@marcocalderon4660exactly
Go all the way back to a soldier story with Denzel Washington. And you knew even back then, he was special. And on The Verge of. Greatness
I’m late to this interview but Michael sounds ridiculous here! Is he crazy? Ain’t no way Samuel L. Jackson could have successfully played Denzel’s roles and had the same iconic moments as DW! He’s bugging! 🤦🏽♂️🤬
Denzel is king in our house. Three words: Man On Fire
I think both actors are diverse and have range in their acting careers, but I have yet to see Samuel Jackson play in a romantic role so far, other than that, they both have done it all.
Eve's Bayou
I have yet to see Denzel play an uncle tom
@@movieguy7650 Got em!
@@movieguy7650that won’t a romantic film 😂
Jack Nicholson is possibly the greatest of all time. What an amazing actor
Leo is not far behind...and will surpass him before its over.
@@naystercobear9576 damn. Leo is hard. That's for sure. Philip Seymour Hoffman a sleeper too
Jack Nicholson was the best joker in my opinion
odd take
Facts
Sam jackson is the goat! He does everything Denzel does including comedic roles. This is undebatable
He ain't doing Malcolm X like Denzel
Of course it's debatable, what are you smoking, personally I have Denzel over Sam, it's a matter of opinion
The ultimate, Denzel could not have played Stephen in Django.
Could Denzel Washington do.....Star Wars?!?....or Marvel?!?
John Q? Could you imagine same Jackson as John Q yelling at everyone? 😂
MJW isn’t completely wrong. I’m not seeing Denzel playing Stephen in D’Jango. Lol
2 guns with Mark Wahlberg was hilarious as a comedy
Just because Samual Jackson has had more movie roles than Denzel Washington doesn’t make him the better actor
Aries calling it "the stroke lips" is CRAZY lmfaoooooo
I don't think Denzel could have pulled off Sam work in Django!
Dying of laughter in the 1st minute
Sam & Denzel are in their own lanes, playing their own roles 🤷🏾♂️😂
Comparing Denzel and Jackson is like Robert De Niro and Al Pacino there both great
Samuel L. Jackson and Denzel are my two favorite actors. I agree that both are extremely versatile
I’m not falling for the divide and conquer tactic…! NINGAS don’t go bashing one or the other online (you know we’ll do it😡) Sam and Denzel are both great actors!!!!!!! Both are legends…..
Demzel also played on the autobiographie of Wilma Rudolph. When he was a teenager. Ciecly tyson also played Wilma mother on that film
Sam and Denzel are FANTASTIC ACTORS but, Denzel can give you the soft emotional subtleties that hit hard .
Denzel is on a different level than Samuel L Jackson. And it’s not even close. Hell majority of Samuel L. Jackson movies he’s yelling and cussin.
Aries gets way more hate than he should. Hes not angry or bitter. Hes just old school. So am I 🤷🏾♂️
Michael Jai says he can beat Mayweather, Bruce Lee, Steven Segal now Samuel can play Denzel roles lol. This guy is hilarious.
The “stroke lips” is brilliant.
Interesting that when Michael got to naming Samuel Jackson movies, outside of Nick Fury, he had a hard time naming memorable movies, while Denzel has created his own damn neighborhood superhero and is on part 3 of an original series. Ain't no duplicating Denzel
Aries just meat riding😂😂the equalizer stopped being good after the first 1, Sam could definitely do his roles
Samuel L. Jackson starred in the movie "Meeting Evil". I wasn't ready for his character.
You get an experience with Denzel. One of the GOATs in any profession. Samuel Jackson couldn’t do Peterson in ‘A Solider Story,’ but I love Samuel Jackson.
Aries back again boiiiiiiii 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
2 guns with Mark Walberg was pretty funny
