What Should Happen as a Result of the Chris Rock Will Smith Oscars Incident? (53)
MarblecollecterLaCygne, Kansas USA3 PostsNothing they should not get anything for bad acting. It was really pretty piss poor fake as hell.
I think they are just trying to save pedowood from dying. Bring up the ratings.
i'm not sure charges for the assualt should actually be pressed. there are much harsher assaults that take place hurting much more than pride. law isn't necesssarily the answer to every thing. especially when a lot more major things aren't even enforced much in some areas.
i say that because growing up, on occasion, one might end up in fisticuffs with a friend and shake hands again later. or actually manage to gain a friend through such. i can't explain how that happens but on occasion, it does. nothing about chris and will went any where near that far.
chris still states he's processing things in spite of what many might have heard. instead of us worrying about what should be done, which is irrelevant no matter what our opinions are, maybe we should let them decide

Maybe a fine and a warning although maybe not even that much. Maybe let the damage to Will's career be the fine and the public outcry the warning.
Between the two men I hope they say let bygones be bygones.

Well, actually, we don't have a say in any decisions that they make, but not unlike most social controversies and other events involving physical violence and its place in private and public, some people want to discuss and learn from them.i say that because growing up, on occasion, one might end up in fisticuffs with a friend and shake hands again later. or actually manage to gain a friend through such. i can't explain how that happens but on occasion, it does. nothing about chris and will went any where near that far.

Me too. considering comedian rock was only doing his job hosting and roasting other celebrities at this annual public event when he was assaulted in public in front of a world audience. Chris rock has taken the high road from the start but it may not be bygones yet. i don't know what I would do if i was in rock's shoes.Between the two men I hope they say let bygones be bygones.
Jaavisst: The only scary thing about this is that people belive it to be true and not acting. If you ever have hit or been hit you don't move like Rock did. It's a Hollywood slap.
the incident was real, not rehearsed. Smith’s tirade as he sat down was filthy. He broke down afterward ( because he knew he had thrown an out- of- control baby tantrum in front of the world. Remorseful immediately.) He’s going to have a melt-down, a nervous breakdown, over this. This is serious social malfunction. He’s in mental health hell…lotsa trouble to yet come. Pray for anyone directly affected by this. It’s a bloody freaking mess, and it’s not over. Trust me.
If there were two 12 year old boys in the school yard and one of them made an insulting remark about the other boy's mother, that boy would slap the boy who make the remark.
If there were two 40 year old adult men and one of them made a comment about the other man's wife I would think that man would punch the man in the face who made the comment.
A slap vs. a punch shows different levels of anger.
If Will was seriously angry that Chris said something about his wife don't you think he would have knocked him to the floor instead of a little slap that merely caused Chris stumble?
What we saw on stage in the Oscar's was childish play.
No matter what I read in the media about Will being punished I don't believe a minute of it to be true.

what are we actually learning from it? like many things and people, if it wasn't such high profile, we'd know nothing about it. and therefore, would care less.it's not a we, personal, or national problem. it's "their" problem. between will, chris, and the awards board, "they" have to sort it out and each partially decide for themselves, the next course. Legal? freindship? guilt? embarrassment and more.

Imho You are so wrong about everything you said in your last post in this poll. violent behavior breeds violence and this violent response by smith to a typical Hollywood roasts sets a bad example, a worse example than the popular raunchy violent video games that video game companies reap a lot of money from. it's not a we, personal, or national problem. it's "their" problem. between will, chris, and the awards board, "they" have to sort it out and each partially decide for themselves, the next course.

The academy has ruled
Although Will Smith resigned from the Academy following his Oscars slap of Chris Rock, the organization has imposed a hefty penalty against the actor: A 10-year ban from the Oscars, as well as all Academy-related events.
“The 94th Oscars were meant to be a celebration of the many individuals in our community who did incredible work this past year; however, those moments were overshadowed by the unacceptable and harmful behavior we saw Mr. Smith exhibit on stage,” the Academy’s Board of Governors announced Friday in a statement (via Variety).
“During our telecast, we did not adequately address the situation in the room. For this, we are sorry. This was an opportunity for us to set an example for our guests, viewers and our Academy family around the world, and we fell short — unprepared for the unprecedented.”

Not quite that simple. Ripple effect. A community is affected by the individuals and their behaviors. A law student who cheats on exams affects the integrity of the profession. A physician who makes serious errors affects the integrity of healthcare. and so on…it's not a we, personal, or national problem. it's "their" problem. between will, chris, and the awards board, "they" have to sort it out and each partially decide for themselves, the next course.

no ripple effect. they are just people. like every one else.because they hold a title of celebrity status makes them no different. if any thing, more proof they are just people and prone to the same as any one else might be.no different except they made the spotlight.what about all the things similar and worse every day through out the globe? you know nothing because you hear nothing. they haven't been given any importance.
because television gives it importance, doesn't make it any more or less special. the three primary factors are still the only ones that can decide the final outcome(s).

Gee, I think people have the right to talk about things that interest themselves whether you agree with the other persons interest or rights or not,
To do so, especially in cases of a physical assault in public and how that may affect others or not. I never thought you would be one to censor free speech.

i haven't censored anything. To do so, especially in cases of a physical assault in public and how that may affect others or not. I never thought you would be one to censor free speech.
i'm just stating how none of the fuss makes any sense.
physical assault all over the place. most aren't any where near as mild.

Yes, Imho you are censoring and imho you havent read the varied opinions shared here. I am sure the people you are criticizing here have opened up and shared their views on other similar violence. Just my two cents.i'm just stating how none of the fuss makes any sense.

i've read pretty much all of them.can't see the fuss. so much more and worse happens with little to zero coverage. no where near as much prevention or punishments these days. a lot more people from all over. we don't hear or see a fractions of it over all. we don talk about much. hard to when many areas lapse in law and enforcement.
"celebrities", make spectacles of themselves on television, and it seems people lose their minds to a degree over some of the mildest things. their chosen professions push some of those very things for entertainment and a paycheck. awards? ceremonies of different types and celebrations. in this case, a joke and a slap that wasn't scripted.
why fuss? or question? it happened. even some of my news feeds try showing telling videos of jada and will's initial re-actions and many other things of how their married life might be, that helped lead up to it.
deleted of course. more important things to worry about then people in the lime light showing just how human they really are.
do we forget that entertainers are just people too? they can live above most things, including legal fees if need be. even if their careers are damaged, most won't really be hurt if they have to "retire" a little early.

Funny, but this reminds me of a ‘dog and pony’ show with lots of smoke and mirrors. J/S

Like I say hopefully bygones be bygones. In my book the real evil was the standing ovation and how this transformed seamlessly into kicking a dog when it's down. You can't make up for that standing ovation by brutalising Will after the fact. I wouldn't ban Will Smith from the Oscars for ten years, I would ban next year's Oscars for the conduct of the room.Let me guess, everyone is now talking about him being banned... Next year, a few weeks before the awards, the ban will be lifted. Everyone will be talking about it... Many extra viewers expecting some similar thing to happen, a similar thing will happen, everyone will be talking about it... The similar thing will be banned for one year, everyone will be talking about how lenient the one year ban is compared to ten years...
And so on, and so on... Many years of very cheap promotion, for a very cheap event. best thing is to stop giving this rubbish valuable oxygen.
