Mel Gibson used to be a big, he attacked the wrong people and disappeared. Smith just attacked another performer while doing their job.
I have.Quote:

Not a smash hit, but obviously whether anyone has seen it is determined by whether Benny the Local has seen it.
Um, what?Quote:

Couple of my wife’s boomer coworkers had similar comments.Quote:

Can he get an Oscar for his performance at the oscars?
Might be his best acting yet
Any husband would be surly after that amount of drain unclogging.
Actors think they're relevant....that to me is funny. I'm in the minority though.....not a movie fan at all.
I do give props to Chris rock for moving along with the show.
Well, it ain't no Men in Black.Quote:

Btw, just checked his film list. Boy, has he been in a lot of clunkers.
This is what happens when you pay somebody ten million bucks to play act a tough guy.Quote:

Does that change anyone's opinion of how mean or over the line the joke was?? I'm taking the Imus approach here... NEVER diss a lady's hair.... EVER!
So on that line, add in Evangelical, Muslim, Flying Spagetti Monster, etc.. and we're out of entertainers altogether.. Should it matter if it's not blasted by them while performing?? It's different when they're politicians making decisions for us.. Acting or playing music, not so much...Quote:

Comparing a bitch slap to someone going on an anti-semitic rant is, uh, a pretty huge false equivalence. Will Smith's career will be just fine. Lest I remind you, Chris Brown beat the shit out of Rihanna and even his career recovered (fuck that guy).Quote:

Whether you love or hate or are indifferent to celebrities and celebrity culture, this is interesting and certainly relevant to our own day to day, at least in some way, inasmuch as we live and participate in the society that is discussing it. I personally had no idea that this happened or that the Oscars were on Sunday night until yesterday morning when my boss told me about it.
We all make choices to vote with our likes and wallets everyday... When someone offends us we stop supporting their product. I try to separate the quality of their work from the dissonance I have for them personally, but often fail and say fuck them and everything they do from now on..
Even Michael Jackson?Quote:

Polling is almost 50:50 between team Smith and team Rock. Older people and males tend side with Smith while younger people and females tend to side with Rock. Although it's close across the board. Whether sliced among the rich or poor, by race, by gender, or by age no group has an overwhelming preference. But because team Smith is distributed more evenly across the country Will Smith is our new President. Hail to the Chief:

I’m so glad Roger quit being a pilot and began focusing on movie reviews. He has great insight.

Smart dude
so dude has a Chev PU if his wife is taking to my wife & makes fun about my toyota PU
is it ok for my wife to bitch slap her ?
What? No. None of this is OK.
you mean its not ok to hit someone
i've heard neaderthal types say its ok to smack a guy if he sez soemthing about yer wife
So being silly what if roles of the partner are reversed does that make the violence ok ?
I think if someone talks shit on Aquaseal you have the right to smack them.Quote:

Yes because there’s a chance they start making out in the mud. I think I saw that in a Hardee’s commercial.Quote:
