Are you not not going to watch the Oscars this year?

What did Chris Rock know? When did he know it? How is Scientology involved?

[Malloy]

it’s fucked though because it makes space for all kinds of flat, white supremacist patriarchal shit with weird liberal veneer that is stamped on this thread

[BurtReynolds]

We can't discount the theory that this was part of a bigger message sent to Rock to silence him about scientology. Rock has already declined to press charges. Message received?

Lol

[Rob]

If this involved a B-list actor, maybe. Like Jorge said, this isn't Will Smith's brand of weirdness (or craziness).

[BurtReynolds]

Also just use your eyes. Nothing about what happened looked fake.

These people are professional actors!

Grasping at straws, amigo.

Jesse Plemons is a professional actor. Will Smith is a hack.

Maybe the black Tom Hanks thing he's been doing lately isn't that profitable? Maybe he's going in a new edgy direction?

I don't know I'm just asking questions.

Rock is "professional" actor because he's a good comedian and great friends with Adam Sandler/David Spade.

The answer here is he just won best actor.

What's the cash value of that?

CODA won best picture, let's not start putting stock in the Academy Awards

[Ms Harmless]

I think the only "stock" mentioned was profit

Point taken, but I'm willing to assume it meant something to him, and Smith has been around so long. I doubt he's got a problem getting casted in big roles (like his last one).

Have you seen Dogma

[Rob]

The original theory is that it was staged to increase ratings for the Oscars, which seems ridiculous to me if it involves Smith & Rock. That makes no sense.

He might now!

Nah they are too boring to try something like that.
