Samuel L. Jackson has been left furious about this year's Academy Awards, not because he wasn't nominated, but because he felt that more black actors should've been represented.

The actor, who has starred in some questionable films such as 'Snakes On A Plane' and 'Deep Blue Sea' Jackson was cornered by TMZ in Los Angeles yesterday and talking about the Oscars he said: "Where were the black actors?"

He also added: "I guess they didn't think we were available to read teleprompters that night ... not a big deal, hopefully it'll get better ... it wont happen again."

Jackson, who has been making movies since the '80s, continued: "We work in town ... they know who we are, they know we're available to be on that show to represent the people of color who are in the business in town."

Do you agree with Samuel L. Jackson?

Halle Berry was one of the black actors at this year's award ceremony...
