People you think no longer deserve to be considered cool, be it down to terrible film after terrible film, shameless huckstering of god-awful products or just plain old-fashioned lameness.

Samuel L Jackson - What was his last good film? Basic? SWAT? XXX? Changing Lanes? Episode II? Oh no, wait - they were all terrible. And those Barclaycard adverts? Psshh. Get off the list Jackson, and stop humping Quentin's leg.

John Travolta - For much the same reasons as Sammy boy. He might be the fattest man in Hollywood and have his own jumbo jet, but that doesn't give him an excuse to make the big streaming yellow streak of films he's slashed out recently. I honestly can't remember a decent Travolta movie since Get Shorty. And even that wasn't brilliant. Off, fatty.

Harrison Ford - Hasn't made a good movie since 1984 (the year, not the... book). Shagging Ally McBeal doesn't make you cool, it makes you pervy and old. And you can take that earring out too. You look ridiculous.

John Woo - Um... Windtalkers anyone? Paycheck? The Replacement Killers? Mission Impossible 2? Hello? Anyone? FACE/OFF! I DID FACE/OFF, THAT WAS GOOD! Yeah, that was 7 years ago, and starred fatty up there. Don't let the door hit your backside on the way out, SELLOUT.

Laurence Fishburne - Ah, Larry Larry Larry. Sorry, Laurence. You were one of the coolest characters in movie history. Then you went all annoying, put on a crappy jumper and became Jada-Pinkett Smith's lapdog. I believed in you man. Give me the blue pill anyday.

I'd say Vin Diesel as well. He was great in Pitch Black, but XXX was toss.

Yes, Samuel L Jackson is officially off the cool list. I hope they paid him an awful lot of money to shred his credibility in SWAT.

All of them except Samuel should be on that list.

May be on a downward blip, but come one, the guy still screams "cool" at you. Its just his whole bearing and way of speech.

> John Travolta

Battlefield Earth was a masterpiece of bad film making. I have to disagree with you on this one ;)

> Harrison Ford

But hes just been reported being seen blind drunk, falling over and visiting lapdancing clubs. He's in his sixties. Hes *still* Indiana Jones (for the upcoming new film) He's cool.

> John Woo

After "Hard Boiled" he hasn't directed a good movie. "Face/off" was ok, but very, very silly.

> Laurence Fishburne

Same as Samuel J to a lesser extent. He did a pretty good job with the appalling material he was given to work with in the matrix sequels. He still has a screen presence that only the best can have.

Face/Off? Change the 'a' for a 'u' and the 'e' for a 'k'.

Ever since Woo got Westernised he really has been truely sh!te. Face/Off was okay, but compare that to something like Hard Boiled or Bullet in the Head and you realise just how cack he's got.

Samuel L Jackson was only cool in "Unbreakable"

Because he was crazy.
