Samuel L. Jackson put a demanding fan in his place over the weekend, once again proving the general annoyances involved with being one of the biggest movie stars in the world.

Jackson," Fitz said in a front of a background emblazoned with Jackson's face and the alleged quote "I'm a fan of me too."
