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.

Are you off your rocker??? Harrison ford has been in lots of good or semi good movies... Indiana JOnes, The fugitive is excellent, Airforce one (so cheesy you cant stop watching) I loved six days, seven nights - that was different!

Dear me... Harrison is a legend and he is old - and still got it

John Woo didn't do Speed 2.

Hey, that rhymes!

It was Jan De Bont.

Off the Cool List:

Vin Diesel definitely is not cool, and yes, he wasn't actually bad in the likes of Pitch Black and Boiler Room so it's a shame. John Woo, of course, has certainly lost everything (the utterly atrocious Speed 2 was the final nail in the coffin for me).

Arnold Schwarzenegger's coolness is dwindling, muchly due to the really rather camp leather in Terminator 3 (ironic, considering its predecessors made him in the cool stakes).

Still Cool:

Samuel L Jackson and Quentin Tarantino will always be cool, even if Mr Jackson takes everything that's thrown at him, and Mr Tarantino's Kill Bill lacked any real depth and was just a lot of excellent fight scenes. But they have "it". And it will take a lot to take "it" away from them.

Onto the Cool List:

The majority of the cast of The Lord of The Rings deserve a mention here I think, as do David Walliams and Matt Lucas - for the excellence of Little Britain.

No, Rush hour films were funny. Not sure about him in the tuxedo though.


P.s Samuel L Jackson = cool

He was in Biker Boys with Kid Rock for God sake, that instantly deletes any shred of cool in a man.

Agree on everything apart from Fishburne. That crossed a line.

When you enter the matrix your avatar is your own residual self image. So why has Morpheus' RSI turned him into someone's uncle?

"Morpheus the agent is coming, and this is cause and effect, if he throws a punch you must react. How philosophical"

"F**k philosophical I've just got me slippers on and I'm eatin' a f**king burger, you fight him"

"I will do what I was destined.."
