Leaving aside the “someone died for real” angle, it’s not even that good a joke. 

It’s almost impossible to find a bad word spoken about Smith, except from people who have never worked with or met him.

They should have skipped handing out the Best Actor award, the reason being that since one of the nominees had already shown violent and unpredictable behavior (plus cursing, oh the horror) AND refused to leave, it was not safe to announce that category. He still wins the award, I guess, but he is not given the…

Academy just don’t understand.

Boy, this story keeps making everyone look so bad except for Rock.

... in front of one’s friends, collegues, and a global audience of millions. It’s exactly the same thing!

Even if this is true, there’s still (to me, at least) the rancid feeling that most of the people there were, at the very least, sympathetic to him. The producers of the show didn’t make them give him a standing ovation, party with him all night, and go miles out of their way to avoid criticizing him whenever they were…

“Best Actor in a Film Released in 2021 Who Hasn’t Also Slapped Someone in Public”

Ah, but it would have been great television.

That pretty much follows with the rest of the reports in the trades from the showrunners. They feared the horrible optics of having to have security and LAPD remove Smith and how that could’ve escalated. Now, with this report that Smith refused to leave that’s even more understandable. His refusal to leave when asked…

Smells like arse covering given they still let him accept the award and make a long speech.

Agreed 100%. So great in Jay & Silent Bob too.

Look, was is a little strange to have a Sacheen Littlefeather give a speech about Native American mistreatment?  Sure.  But you have to remember that the alternative was a speech by Marlon Brando.

I mean, I don’t think anyone was expecting a dozen security and staff to rush onstage during a live event and drag Will Smith out of the building since he immediately turned around and went back to his seat. However, after Chris Rock finished his segment, someone should’ve tapped Will Smith on the shoulder and…

Website posting near-constant stream of articles about Will Smith slap gets on high horse when celebrity answered question when asked about Will Smith slap.

Jesus Christ. Rock didn’t make a joke about alopecia. He compared her to Demi Moore. Stop pushing this false narrative. 

The tone of this post sucks. Fuck off, man. 

Jim Carrey weighed in because he was asked about it. 99.9 % of these stories about celebs weighing in on things (are Marvel movies cinema/Oscars slap, whatever) is because they’re asked about it on press junkets to generate headlines...like the one Carrey’s doing for Sonic 2. But you know this. 

I feel like being remembered as Stifler makes a lot of people forget that Seann William Scott is actually a pretty great actor. He was great in Goon! I don't entirely understand what he was supposed to be doing in Southland Tales, but he did it well! And yes, he was even a great Stifler. That's why he's still…

Monkeys paw wish, you’d probably end up with Chet.
