this whole thing is so goddamn dumb. It's basically a nationally televised bar fight. Most bar fights the cops are never involved, if they do get involved maybe someone spends an evening in the drunk tank then pays a fine. Will Smith will probably voluntarily kick down money to some anti-bullying non-profit just to try to diminish the damage to his career. He'll take a few hits to hit career but it's not like he's Kevin Spacey, this is more Robert Downey Jr. level stuff

The Tucker Carlson talking points about "what if Matt Damon did this", it's a red herring. Chris Rock wouldn't take a similar jab at Matt Damon, Will Smith being in the same demographic as Rock is why Rock was more edgy with Smith than he would a white actor, because the irony is more acceptable within the same cohort (see: N word).

Well this is the least surprising post of the day. Of course we knew where you stood on the issue before posting this.

I don't think it was fake. I think Will had his protecting the family bit written if he won and when he looked at Jada he realized how stupid he'd look if he won and gave that speech after letting Rock tell a bad joke in bad taste directed at his wife.

I don’t think it was fake either I’m saying the talk of the expulsion is posturing. Zero chance it happens. I think you’re on the right track.

Who knows if it was staged or not, but Rocks shows have now sold out 2 and half months in advance after that little charade which wasn't occurring before the slap and the Oscars ratings have been trending terribly for the last decade.



Looks like easy math to me.  This year's Oscars rose by 56% just from last year.

They've definitely been trending lower but ...

Over the past decade or so the question of "how many of the nominees have I seen in the theatre" kept having a lower and lower number for me, but only because going to a movie meant a babysitter, and if I haven't seen the movies what do I care who wins?

In the pandemic, nobody has been going to the movies. And even with streaming (CODA won best picture from a streaming site) - when you go to the major streaming sites the big hitters are things like Big Little Lies, Ozark, etc... serials which don't fall into the nominee categories.
