Fans of movie star and golf fanatic Samuel L. Jackson will never see him playing golf on the big screen - because he's convinced fairway films are flops.
The Pulp Fiction star is considered one of the world's best celebrity golfers, but he vows he'll never mix business with pleasure.
He says, "Golf is a sport that people participate in. People don't like to watch it on screen unless it's Caddyshack. That's the only one. Who went to see (The Legend of) Bagger Vance? Will (Smith) and Matt Damon's family?
"(Kevin Costner movie) Tin Cup is a romantic comedy and a date movie. If you can make a date movie out of golf, maybe that would work. But those are the only two, Caddyshack and Tin Cup." l

Hollywood actor Colin Farrell is glad he failed an audition for Irish pop group Boyzone - because he wouldn't have "lasted too long" in the band.
Farrell tried out for the boyband in the 1990s while he was a struggling actor in Ireland, but he was rejected during the audition phases for his lack of vocal talent.
Boyzone went on to score a string of chart successes in the U.K., returning last year for a reunion tour.
Farrell eventually landed a role in British drama series Ballykissangel in 1998 and went on to forge a high profile career in Hollywood.
And the star admits he is pleased he was never accepted into Boyzone - because it would have sent his life off on a very different path.
He says, "I don't think I would have lasted in the band too long. Life would have been very different, very different.
"I certainly wouldn't have lasted a reunion I don't think."l

Hollywood funnyman Robin Williams surprised fans in London by returning to the stage for a stand-up performance - three days before his scheduled comeback.
The Mrs Doubtfire star was due to return to the U.K. stage for the first time in 25 years in London theatre production We Are Most Amused on 12 November.
The show is part of the celebrations for British royal Prince Charles' 60th birthday.
But the comedian chose to warm up by playing an intimate gig to an audience of just 100 people at a student bar in the capital on Saturday night.
The London School of Economics (Lse)'s regular comedy night The Chuckle Club played host to the superstar for the evening - but organiser Paul Jay was forbidden from revealing the identity of his surprise guest before the event.
Jay says, "It was the thrill of my life to have Robin Williams. He was marvellous - very, very funny." l

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt had to tone down their recent photoshoot for American magazine W - because the pictures were too racy.
Budding photographer Pitt was commissioned by the publication to take a series of candid shots of his family.
And Jolie insists that although she was pleased with the first set of images Pitt produced, the couple decided some of the photographs were just not suitable for the magazine.
She says, "We'd look at the pictures like art and say, 'This is a really interesting photograph,' but then we'd know better and think about how it was going to be received. So we made it a little more tame than it was." l
