Paid Members Lorne Malvo Posted March 28, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted March 28, 2022 I just saw the results for this Oscars and found out Encanto won best animated film over Mitchells vs The Machines. Further proof that awards ceremonies are fucking stupid and people should not pay attention to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEGIT Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 (edited) I really liked Will Smith growing up because of his music and Fresh Prince TV show. He's spent years and years ruining his reputation in Foley-esque fashion though, to me he's just turned himself into a big laughing stock. I honestly think the joke was said, Will laughed along, saw Jada's reaction and thought "I need to defend her, make threats and use force, so she can see him much of a man I am." Which, to me, makes him more of a complete bitch of a man. Edited March 28, 2022 by LEGIT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vamp Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Pretty sure Will Smith has some form of PTSD from seeing his mother abused when he was a child. I also imagine a good 80% of people at these things tune out and laugh automatically at the jokes before realising what was said. Not that it excuses slapping a comedian for shit outdated material. Otherwise Ricky Gervais would be hiding in a cupboard somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My opinion is that there are layers to this. Will Smith is a man who in recent memory was on TV as his wife talked about being in love with and fucking another man that they invited into their house to help as millions of people watched. If memory serves me correctly she pretty much wanted him to accept at least equal responsibility for her actions as well. Has she not spent the last 25 years talking about only being married to the man because Tupac isn't alive too? Both Will & Jada laughed at the joke initially then what I assume happened is that he either saw her face change and in that moment felt pressured to react or perhaps she even said something to him. Throughout his entire career I haven't heard a single word or rumour of him being violent or an abuser previously (not saying he isn't one - I don't know him, I just haven't heard it). If he does have serious mental health issues or "is crazy" as so many others have labelled it then it's funny how some people are seen as needing help and support yet others are instantly villified. Now he's potentially done something hugely out of character, in the heat of the moment and is being crucified for it. I'm not defending it and I'm not saying it wasn't wrong and out of order but it was an open handed slap across the face to someone who whether they were paid to be there or not ridiculed his wife about a disease she is publicly known to be suffering from, infront of a billion people watching worldwide. He didn't shoot someone. Edited March 28, 2022 by Jonny Vegas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members I Bent My Wookie Posted March 28, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted March 28, 2022 I don't know if I'm against the grain here but I can understand Smith bitch slapping Rock. The last few years at the Oscars he's made jabs at the family, adding in twitter and who's to say how much they even get on after he appeared on Fresh Prince back in the 90s. Smiths laugh was fake as hell, clearly for a TV audience knowing he'd get panned to. When he saw how upset his wife was genuinely by an unfunny prick making fun of the fact she was medically losing her hair he decided to go and bitch slap, not punch someone he doesnt respect and clearly show how little respect or care he had for him by doing it in a moment he should have been celebrated. Violence is never the answer. But being an unfunny cunt who mocks someone for losing their hair becuase it'll get you a cheap laugh makes you a pretty unlikeable prick too. He deserved that slap, it's just mental it happened in front of millions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea why a 'side' even has to be picked and why one man has to be defended over the other. Both are bellends who were out of line.

Not any direct actions but more both were likeable and entertaining to me during my youth but have spent years now doing or saying strange things. They both have a bit of that 'loser dad' feel about them. For more about Foley, see the old 'Foley is crud" thread on these forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
