Will Smith slap
-
this whole thing is pretty weird, it was a very tame joke that set him off, agreed Rock took it very well...but was also very flustered afterwards....and smith has apologies so i dont think it was staged...just very strange

King Richard: Feel good movie, easy viewing but that’s about all. Will Smith was pretty decent playing a fairly annoying character. A good support cast of the two young actors playing Venus and Serenda and John Berenthal as a tennis coach. 6.5/10
Chris Rock found him annoying too.

For a big guy who played Muhammad Ali Will Smith floats like a bee and stings like a butterfly. Chris Rock looked completely unhurt.
Part of me thinks it was staged if only to detract from the shithouse looking movies up for awards. The Oscars gets woker every year

It was an open hand if you watch the clip.
The joke was about his wife's medical condition so bad taste bad yeah, an over-reaction it seems.
What we didn't see is her reaction past her initial displeasure. Maybe she started crying or something and it set him off. -

Sorry Will, a movie about the Williams family won’t be particularly high on my list of must see flicks.
Jesus Christ, what happened to the days of the Deer Hunter, Jaws, Schindler’s List, Saving Private Ryan etc ? Aside from Dune this list looks fucken shithouse especially Jane Campions effort. We had gay cowboys with Brokeback Mountain.

Maybe she started crying or something and it set him off.whats her medical condition? thought she had just shaved her head for a role, even then it seems an over reaction given some of the "jokes" we see, even he at least pretended to laugh so it a hell of a gear shift to go on stage a slap someone
yeah, i saw it was a slap, was their doubt about that i didn't say it wasn't?

Yeah back in the day these films weren't necessarily blockbusters, but they were mainstream and people had actually seen them and could cheer on their favourites. Now they're generally films that nobody has seen or wants to see. That ain't good.

I didn’t even love Dune quite as much as I hoped but it’s sooooooo far away the best of the bunch it’s not funny.
This isn’t a recent thing though. Monsters Ball and Three billboards or whatever it was called were astonishingly boring ‘dramas’ yet worthy of Oscar thrashwanks

That was cringy as fuck. Smith is laughing at a pretty average Oscars joke while his wife ain't pleased. Nek minnit he's up slapping Rock and still wound up enough to yell out and swear at Rock from his seat.
Dude definitely got the hurry up from his missus then decides to assault, presumably an acquaintance if not a friend, during a broadcast international event. -
@paekakboyz yeah, thats what i was trying to say, normally im a bit of a smith fan but that was a bit fucked up
-
@kiwiwomble I'm the same. this is so far beyond character for him it's mental. Saw a meme about Smith cussing more in 60 seconds than he did in his 10 year rap career.
So, does he get arrested? charged? Move with his auntie and uncle in Bel-Air? -
@paekakboyz saw a headline where Rock has said he wont lay charges

Batman movie is pretty good.
Real se7en light vibes and a well put together story with actual detective shit going on.
Some of the shots were amazing. Were a couple of clunky scenes and one silly “white people bad” line, but 99% was well done.
Son loved it, discarded the shit out of my daughter.
4 out 5 batarangs
gone back to this, generally agree with everything
what was the silly line?

It’s almost like he paused and asked himself ‘how would a heterosexual man react’? Needed a director to tell him dial it back a bit

Yeah definitely, Smith looks like he's trying to stifle a laugh when he's walking away and the whole slapping action from Smith's weird "I'll teach you a lesson boy" stance to Rock swinging his head back like he's been slapped in a wrestling ring.

Agreed the slap itself looked staged…but his shouting when back in his seat and rock reaction didn’t…

Only in Hollywood could somebody be physically assaulted, and the person who committed the offence be the one that required all the sympathy / comforting.
Regardless of what you think about the joke, either violence is never acceptable or it is. Clearly, Hollywood thinks it is.
-
@majorrage brief viewings I've seen show Smith apologising to everyone but Rock (and unashamedly begging to keep his career). Nobody has even batted an eyelid at that, so did he apologise to Rock and it just wasn't in the clips?

You obviously think Chris rock is a better actor than I do!…and I don’t believe will smith would agree to yell fuck in the middle of the Oscar’s as a “skit”

Him and his wife have an "interesting" dynamic.
