“That’s kind of like saying Bugs Bunny ain’t funny,” said Jackson while talking to Variety.
“Films are films. You know, everybody doesn’t like his [Martin Scorsese] stuff either. I mean, we happen to, but everybody doesn’t,” he added.
Jackson went as far as hitting Martin’s genre of films that often revolves around gangster epics.
“There are a lot of Italian-Americans that don’t think he should be making films about them like that. Everybody’s got an opinion, so it’s okay. It’s not going to stop anyone from making movies,” said Jackson as he slammed the filmmaker.
