Yeah, no kidding, try that with The Rock instead of Chris Rock and see what happens.

Well...this right here.

"At least a dozen members of the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences, the organization behind the Oscars, met virtually on Monday morning to discuss a response to Smith slapping Rock, according to two sources with knowledge of the meeting.

The meeting was described as "heated" and "divided." There was no agreement on further action, according to the sources."

Slapfights?

They will "observe and report! Observe... and Report!"

The beautiful people operate on a whole different level than the rest of us plebs. Gotta pretend to look like they’re doing something about an obvious assault. I wonder what would have happened if someone walked up to Smith and slapped the taste out of his mouth on the street? Probably an assault charge is my guess.

You guys are all acting as though you've never played Front Hand Back Hand...?

Paraphrasing JW: If it had been Mel Gibson, frog marched out in handcuffs.

Black on black crime finally caught on television.

At worst Smith will send himself to some high profile Hollywood rehab/anger management and it will all go away.


Dumb joke, far dumber reaction.

I wonder which one will be out of a job beginning today - Rock or Smith?

Take all those actors, actresses, directors and more to the afterlife. Sean Penn leading them.

Tool already made a song about this but a massive ocean wave covering the mother fucker instead of a bomb. Learn to swim!

I have zero interest in anything Hollywood has to say. Useless hypocrites, all of them. Just shut the fuck up and keep making John Wick movies. You arent the moral authority on ANYTHING.

Neither. Smith is protected and Rock doesn't need acting as he'll have plenty of comedy work available. There might be some hurt executives with Smith pushing his weird son into the business but, he's a marketable figure for studio execs.
If things get turned against Rock, he'll join Chapelle and Hart on the growing funny by ostracized tour.

Perhaps not, but for those of you who think this was a stunt, you may want to factor in the following:

Academy condemns Will Smith's actions, launching formal review of Chris Rock slap

How's that "stunt" angle looking now?

That’s because of skin color. If it’s white on white, or da man striking another man of color, instant revocation. But since it’s black on black, it’s “divided.” The max liberals are probably wringing their hands on what to do.

So in reality, either the Academy sticks to its own propaganda and revokes the award or they double down with their hypocrisy and let it slide. I’d say it’s 50/50. If they are worth a shit they will revoke. And by worth a shit I mean stick to their own bullshit etc. But I’m sure they are fearing the Twatter backlash if they do. Liberal heads literally exploding on what to do.

The entire show is a joke now. The Academy caved to Twatter etc years ago. Winners, well let’s say some winners are chosen specifically because of X, not because they were the best of the year. They’ve double downed on this, this year, with a DJ for a large portion of the show, used to be a symphony the entire time, and instead of it’s raining men it’s raining color. Many of the women dressed like hos with their tits out when to me this whole thing used to be very professional, tuxes, women in dresses, think Frank Sinatra levels of professionalism. It’s nothing like that now, it’s a got damn nightclub or something and gross amounts of political whining and bullshit. I remember when Ving Rhames gave away his Oscar to Jack Lemmon. Those days are long gone. Might as well have the Kardashians giving away awards with Bruce Jenner giving away a new award, of best letter people award.

The show is so void of new quality work they brought out Pulp Fiction stars, Godfather, and Juno, using past films and actors in those films to offer something, anything.

You'd think security would have walked the prince out.

That’s not what event security is for.

If he’d began wailing on Chris Rock they’d have probably pulled him off but they would not have tossed him out unless told to.

Security isn’t there to stop the talent, it’s there to protect the talent. More than one musician has got off the stage and gone into the audience to hit someone and security only intervenes to keep the star from getting hurt in a fight.

The scene we wanted to see:

Smith, raising hand: Don't start none won' be none.

Rock: You need to ease up out my face before something bad happens.

This made me laugh. If it had been Mel Gibson who smacked Chris, he would not only have been perp walked out of the venue, he would have been summarily executed in the parking lot in between a commercial break.
