And this is why comedy is dead. Moral policing. Comedy is to make fun of *everyone*. The ultimate judge is the audience. If they don't think it's funny, they won't listen to them.

I always respect comedy but theres always place a stage for that and theres a certain red line/code of conduct for that you must not crossed toward people

ahaha for sure Will and Jada's little tantrum definitely stole the limelight from any winners that came after the stunt they pulled. all Will had to do during his victory speech was say "Chris, you shouldn't have said that about my wife, but I also shouldn't have slapped you" and the next morning apologize on Twitter to the winners who were robbed of the glory they've spent their entire lives trying to achieve. but these narcissists can't do something that simple because they really believe think the world revolves around them, which is why they behave this way in the first place. just sad shit all around

Right... Because the same thing will happen next year.
So many are judging him by his worst moment.
Do any of us want to be judged by our worst moment?

naaah bruh it's will Smiths problem that he is insecure, can't take a joke or control his temper, not the rest of the worlds.

If everyone got smacked in the face for every bad joke told we'd all be as bald as Jada Pinkett Smith.

Theres certain area you must not cross when making joke on someone, remember what you attack is his/her ideas, behaviour or what he did but never attack these
- disease/ ilness
- his/her children/ wives familly member
- his/ her faith/religion

It's a trumped up event so actors can back-pat each other. You're making it sound like the G20 summit or a royal coronation.This is supposed to be the most prestigious event for movie award
Theres nothing funny about disrespectfull maners and temper tantrum on stage like this
Theres nothing respectfull about slapping your host or roasting one of your audiences illness
What both will smith and chris rock did was uneceptable and an a total embarasment in front of million people and the show itself
People need to learn to act acordingly and know how to behave especially on important stage like this
It's for actors. I feel like I'm going insane here, but actors. It's not a fine profession.

People replied to your comment saying that for the last 50 years comedians hosted these award shows and roasted people and it's part of the tradition now. You chose to ignore that, called it irrelevant, and are now going in circles.
Whether you like it or not these award shows have been the "time and the place" to roast celebrities for decades. If they weren't, then that list of hosts that you chose to ignore would have looked very different and people like Gervais wouldn't have been re-invited to host the golden globes 5 times after all the times he made audience members uncomfortable.
Also, this line you aren't supposed to cross isn't written in any book of conduct. Being offended in subjective. Making ANY joke at someone's expense will run the risk of offending them, no matter how tame and harmless it may seem.
Many people will tell you this joke is very tame compared to what is usually said in these award shows. If the joke was as appalling as some claim it was then the audience's moral compass would have gone off and they wouldn't have all laughed for as long as they did. Look at the audience in that footage... It's all laughs and smiles up, including Will, up until the moment he got up and did his thing.

You know she's an actress right? The joke wasn't directed at "Will's wife," it was directed at Jada. It's not like she's not a public figure in her own right. You are off your rocker mate.

Nah, it's fair game. Even in your first sentence, you say people can go after their ideas, behaviour, etc., and people still get offended about these kinds of jokes anyway. So, if people are getting offended by everything (shocking in 2022, I know...), then how do comedians even function?

ok so lebron should start swinging everytime someone makes fun of his male pattern baldness? or Tom Hanks should assault people everytime he is asked his goofy son Chet? what are you talking about? people should stone gervais when he makes fun of Christianity at the golden globes? this ain't the middle east bro

You can tell that to the decapitated comedian comic from france
Pretty much. By this logic all of these comics who did stand-ups mocking religion should have had their teeth rearranged instead of awarded netflix specials. Also, "your mama" jokes are worthy of assault because family members are a no-no.

So it's the comedian's fault that someone decapitated them?

He honestly just kind of acted like someone in the middle of a manic episode, he knew he was on live TV and he impulsively did it anyways, right after laughing at the joke, it's a complete 180. He should have controlled it, but anger and mental illness can be a hell of a drug….even without drugs.
I think the speech with him giving apology to everyone but Chris Rock is where I'm guessing most people are attributing to him not being remorseful. But relating back to my civil lawyer friend's advice on basically everything (although specifically in my case it was car accidents even though I've never been in one
): 'Don't apologize to the person even if you know you're in the wrong, and don't discuss the incident to them or with anyone else without a lawyer present to smack you in the back of the head and tell you to shut the fuck up and stop incriminating yourself'.….. I think in that vein the lawyers were trying to limit what he would say about it, and while he kinda followed that principle in his acceptance speech he kinda fucked that up at the same time when he added in the thinly veiled excuses about 'defending family' and trying to tie it to the movie plot throughout.

So, let's say one of your family members makes fun of someone's religion. That person then decides to chop off your family member's head. At the funeral, would you stand there and say, "Well, guess you shouldn't have made light of their religion..."?

Irrelevant. The DA doesn't need Chris to press charges, they can do it themselves. They're not going to. We all know why.

Was there beef between the two of them prior? I would assume they were friends or worked together at some point. Could add a little context. Did Chris know about her disease before he made the joke. Wills the one looking like an idiot here but I'm curious to know if Chris is a straight up dick or just happened to make a bad joke at a bad time.
Most people will agree with you but they crossed different boundaries. There is a reason why making a slightly inappropriate joke isn't illegal like assault is.

I believe it's real but I was reading nba reddit last night and people started posting shit about will Smith. I thought it was some kind of corny Oscar's joke until I saw it
Didn't even know it was going on. I love movies but when they switched to 14 movies gets nods for best picture I gave up

Guys what if it was the other Rock, would Will have even dared.
Nah Chris probably saw his face, knew he was getting decked and braced.

Rock made a joke at the grammys (maybe) about her hair. They have some beef I guess but it seems like it effected Jada way more that will.
At a certain point you just have to sack up if you're Jada. OK,maybe it's a little embarrassing to have alopecia later in life but does anyone really give a shit? Shes got a fuck load of money and can buy wigs if she wants. She's had short hair most of her career too.
Idk. You can argue it was in bad taste but when you put all your life on podcasts and documentaries don't be surprised if someone rips you.

If you look close will was still smiling when he walked up and even immediately after the slap. It was a fake out so he could sucker slap rock. Rock looked like he was leaning in so will could have a "close word" with him.

Ah what? You must not have watched any comedy special before 2010. You can and people do make fun of faith all the time.
Sorry alopecia isn't a huge life ruining disease. Agree that kids are off limits but spouse's (especially if they are entertainers too) are absolutely open to jokes.

Ya agree that will should've never done that regardless. I'm just surprised Chris would start something if there was any history prior. TBH i probably would've done the same thing and made myself look like a fool. That's only if there was some kind of bad history between us. Because I know it's straight up intentional and targeted. Regardless Will always looks like an ass in this situation.

I also saw someone saying that apparently there's been a lot of jokes at their expense during this year's awards season. I didn't pay attention to the others so I don't know if that was the case but maybe this was the straw that broke the camel's back.
