I don't how he thought that was a good move. Name one good western comedy. aint none.will chose wild wild west instead, which was atrocious.
Laurence Fishburne turning down Pulp Fiction cost him another major role

Bond's gun spoke once....
Blazing saddles/BTTF 3....but yea will was an idiot for that one...think part of the reason was soundtrack money...he wasnt going to make a song for matrix.
If he didn't turn it down his daughter probably would'nt have become a pornstar. Anytime one thing changes in the past it affects multiple things in the future. Butterfly Effect.
BTTF 3 wasn't good. Blazing Sadles i'll admit is an exception to the rule.

I’m glad he didn’t but I could see him in that role. More I think about it, the more it seems like he should have.
3 amigos wasn't good either. lol. Was that will smith's goal coming off independence day, to make the next 3 amigo's?
didn't that one get panned critically too? Tells you all you need to knowNever heard of Maverick though.
although that may say enough right there too.
Wild wild west was basically a mix between Maverick, which was successful in 1994, and Men in Black, which cemented Wills status as an A lister, so I guess he thought it was a safe bet.

I'm gonna sketch a one sheet poster for that show tonight. I can see it in my head already

Maverick is dope. As is 3 amigos. And back to the future 3. Your slander right now
But Maverick is just a big screen version of the tv show. A con man in the west. It's really hard to mess that up on any level as long as you cast it right. And they did. Plus had Richard Donner directing when he was still Richard Donner.

3 Amigos is my guilty pleasure wit mad quotables. 80s comedy classic.3 amigos wasn't good either. lol. Was that will smith's goal coming off independence day, to make the next 3 amigo's?

Maverick was dope, surprised ya never heard of it.
I'm not saying he should've chose Wild Wild West
When he sat down with the Wachowski's and heard the premise it sounded weird and insane. Don't think back then, hearing someone pitch the Matrix was a slam dunk. Plus the aesthetics they talked about sounded out there. And remember at the time, the Wachowski's were known for making a B level movie in BOUND.Matrix was not a slam dunk by any means.
It worked for the best in both films Pulp Fiction and Die Hard
Sam has a certain type of unintentional humor he brought to those roles that Fishburne couldn't pull off I think.. Like Sam is being serious in both those films but it's still a funny charisma he has that made those roles classics..
But this is no knock on Larry as Morpheus wouldn't have been as good if Sam played him..
And honestly I could see Val Kilmer being Morpheus before I could see Will being Neo..
I've tried to see Will as Neo ever since I heard that he turned it down and I just can't see it for some reason
