    Nope, I don't think they look alike at all. Laurence Fishbourne is much broader

    How could anybody not recognise Morpheus.:D

    Yes but remembering peoples names is my achilles heel. I'm terrible. I think I've also called one of these actors Morgan Freeman on more than one occasion. Positively awful.

    Nah I always thought Jackson looks much older than Fishbourne. Both very good actors though.

    I tell you who I did see a huge similarity between and had to go looking it up a few years ago to see if they were related, and was not surprised to see other web sites out there comparing the two of them, the actresses LeeLee Sobieski and Helen Hunt.

    I've always confused Samuel L Jackson for Laurence Fishburne too, so you're not alone there OP. They do look remarkably alike.

    I reall don't think so

    They're both black men, and both had shades on in that sample photo, thats about it

    Here's an example of 2 people I'd mix up:

    Milla Jovovich @ Linda Evangelista, both L'Oreal models

    I was watching Death Wish 2 last night and Charles Bronson had no problems picking Fishbourne out of a crowd and fcuking him up!!:D
