If Smith were white he’s be in prison, lifetime ban, and pariahed.

If Rock were white Smith would be cheered. No punishment. Rock would, in fact, face discipline for telling the joke.

If they were both white, they would both be punished and held up as an example of toxic masculinity.

"Jada said she wished he hadn't slapped Rock"

As if. I've watched the entire video about 5 times. Will was laughing during Rock's joke about her buzz cut and GI Jane, UNTIL Jada gave him a major stink eye, "like do something fool".

Seeing it with my own eyes, I can believe that Will is a cuckold. At the minimum he is whipped. What a shame, I used to admire the guy.

“Well “Men in Black” was pretty good”

So was Independence Day. I can separate evaluation of acting abilities from politics. Will is no mega-actor but he has his own style thing going. Apparently his personal life is a mess which is a shame but whatever.

If Chris were smart he would have just kept his mouth shut and boffed Jada like everyone else. Will is cool with that.

"Even good actors make bad movies. The Lone Ranger movie for instance..."

I still can't believe Johnny Depp signed on to that mess. When I first watch a movie, my inner critic comes out and I get lost into the acting, writing (dialog), directing, and production values. Upon watching a movie again, I can get caught up in it, if it's well done.

The Lone Ranger was SO bad, I haven't watched it twice.

“He should have got knocked on his rear biscuits. That’s what real serious husbands do.”

Does anyone remember Don Rickles? That was when people understood what jokes were.

What are the chances he’d ever get another decent movie deal, much more be nominated for another Oscar, in the future? He’s not the only actor in Hollywood.

He’d already earned the award he was given, but they should’ve escorted him out immediately and mailed it to him.

I disagree. While Rock was shaken for a moment, he came back with, "Wow, Will Smith just slapped the shit out of me" I thought it was really funny. Better, Rock went on to do his job with aplomb and grace. He saved that stupid back-slapping show.

No, I don't watch any awards show anymore.

What kind of news is this?

The choices are either a bread or a circus.

A white guy would not have had the nerve to do what Smith did, but if he did the cities would still be burning.

The flaw in that is she isn’t attractive and if you knocked her up you’d have a boy that would want to parade around in dresses with the way she raises kids.

Not at all. Oscars have many strings attached. You are now forbidden to sell them unlike the past.

Real serious husbands don’t cotton to their wives sleeping with dozens of men, one of which is currently living in his house...
