Samuel L Jackson Recites Iconic Pulp Fiction Dialogue As Quentin Tarantino's Classic Turns 30: ‘I Still Got It’

Actor Samuel L. Jackson just revisited one of his most iconic on-screen moments from Pulp Fiction, 30 years after its release, and it’s just as impactful as ever. Remember the powerful Bible verse from Ezekiel 25:17, recited by Jackson’s character, Jules Winnfield, just before he takes matters into his own hands? The actor has recreated that unforgettable scene — and it carries the same weight now as it did back then.

In a tribute shared on social media to mark the film’s 30th anniversary, Jackson, seated on a sofa in a striped cardigan, delivered those famous lines, sending a wave of nostalgia to fans around the globe.

Pulp Fiction, Quentin Tarantino’s 1994 masterpiece, revolutionised cinema with its groundbreaking narrative and unforgettable characters. Starring John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Bruce Willis, apart from Jackson, it remains a timeless classic.

But what makes Jackson’s tribute so special? It’s not just the words — it’s the legacy of a scene that defined Pulp Fiction and became a cultural touchstone.

Jackson captioned the post, “YOU KNOW I STILL GOT IT!!! EZEKIEL 25:17. HAPPY 30TH ANNIVERSARY OF PULP FICTION.”
