SLJ 94 films; CW 92 (yet-to-be-released pics, tv series, video games & videos not counted)

From inspection of IMDB's filmographies of both, I came up with 94 films for Samuel L. Jackson and 92 for Christopher Walken. As mentioned above in the twitter-friendly 90 character answer, I did not count appearances in TV series, video games or videos, although I did include TV movies and voiced movie roles (e.g. Christopher Walken in _Antz_). I also excluded from the count the 10 Samuel L. Jackson films and 5 Christopher Walken films that are not yet released (either currently filming, in pre- or post-production, or not yet started filming but with announced or rumored casts).

Like most responsible black men, Samuel L. Jackson seems currently to be something of a workaholic, so by next year it looks like he will have widened the gap and we will continue to see him in frequent movie trailers.

In my opinion, both of these actors are fine character actors who have had some of the most quirky and memorable roles in the movies. May both their careers continue to be prolific!

Samuel L. Jackson has been in 128 movies and Christopher Walken has been in 110 according to their IMDB pages. Samuel L. Jackson wins!

Actually the imdb list includes TV shows and video games. You may still be correct that Jackson wins, I didn't go through and count.
