Yet another article around “outrage” created by two people’s posts on Instagram or Twitter.

Did AVClub just publish an interesting retrospective essay that isn’t clickbait about some topic-of-the-day?? Does The Herb know you snuck this through?

Jada: I can be a sexual predator with no consequences but if somebody comments on my hair I get to have my husband commit felony assault on live tv also with no consequences. Grow up.

In fairness the algorithm writes better than Barsanti. 

Not trying to “both sides” this one to be an asshole but I kinda think no one here is coming out all that great. Will is 100% to blame for the slap because he is a grown adult and that shit just isn’t what people do. Chris is an asshole for trying to say that Jada is at fault for it all. Jada probably comes out the…

It was a team building exercise. They all huddled around one desk, each contributing to the column one word at a time, constantly rotating until they had a finished document. They then celebrated their accomplishment with pizza and soda at Chuck E Cheese.

Smith put it out in front of the world and made it everybody’s business.

JADA MADE IT EVERYONE’S BUSINESS BY PUTTING IT ON THAT STUPID SHOW AND AIRING WILL’S PAIN FOR THE WORLD TO SEE.  

“it’s so weird how comedy routines from certain folks have become socio-political sounding boards for the Very Online and no one actually judges to see if they succeed as comedy!”

Or he could have done a sensitive interview about how upsetting the joke was. Or had his agent put out a press release saying that he was offended.

Will ends up taking Odd Job and Rock blames Jada for telling him to do it

Over at Kotaku they scream any time some one brings up AI generated anything meanwhile half the articles at the AVClub feel like they were written by an algorithm

Yep.  The AVClub writers all try to tackle an article solo but when they are defeated they perform the ultra mega journalism fusion dance and become AVClubotron

Since this whole situation arose from a joke that would’ve made more sense in 1997, I submit that Will and Chris resolve their differences the way everyone did that year: GoldenEye 007 multiplayer.

Facility, 2 minutes, Slappers Only

It’s almost like the writers for this site are unfunny, untalented hacks. 

I saw him live a few weeks ago. A massive detail the AVClub is selectively leaving out, to maximize the outrage you’re supposed to feel, is that he’s pointing out that she cheated on him by sleeping with their teenage son’s friend, and then they took interviews about it as a family. The joke is Will Smith had to sit…

I’m a fan of AV Club’s ‘If you like this, you’re a bad person’ angle at the end.  But come on. “Don’t fight in front of white people” is genuinely good advice. I lol’ed at that.

Men in Tights is ok but it’s an obvious drop in quality.  The Spaceballs cartoon, though...ouch...

I had a feeling that would be the case, will probably watch it anyhow but Brooks hasn’t been funny since the ‘90s unfortunately :(

flexing on everyone in the audience, recalled that his first film credit was in a Clark Gable movie.
