I'm not watching that shit because black trauma movies have been played out for a long time now. Doesn't even tell you anything that hasn't been shown a thousand times unlike the Emmett Till movie

It featuring Will Smith is just an extra reason

Yeah, I recognize their importance, but I also wish Black films were more ambitious in scope (like fantasy or sci-fi, stuff like that). Seems like the vast majority of Black films are historical pieces or grounded, realistic comedies or dramas.

That's why Black Panther was such a big deal for me. I'd love to see more afro-centric fantasy/sci-fi work.

If people are still bitchy about Will slapping the shit out of Chris Rock, then there's no helping them. There are far more legitimate reasons to not watch his movies than a slap.

He can literally pay thousands of dollars to people who's career it is to soften harsh blows in the media, aka PR. Every apology you hear from a celeb is crafted/edited by a team. They want you to think he's a genuinely good person so that his career has the strongest chance. Don't assume too much about people you don't know, whether it's good or bad.

Alright, then it's over and done with if Rock accepted the apology, through in my opinion I'd like for Rock to slap him in public then the two shake hands but that's just me. I'm more mad that Bill Cosby managed to worm his way out of prison for what he did

I mean, if people are really all up in there feelings about how they need space before they can watch another Will Smith movie this is pretty dumb.

If they're just like "Dude's kind of an asshole I don't wanna watch anything with him in it" that's fair.

This, especially when it's more of a male ego issue than anything.

Those kinda movies sorta puts liberal performance art first, and black struggles second

I'm gonna be honest, I had forgotten all about the slap and wasn't aware people were still huffy over it lmao. I didn't know he was blacklisted in any form, much less that he's about to make a "comeback." He apologized, so it's whatever as far as I'm concerned. The rest should be between him and Rock and no one else.

Rock cared a lot as did a lot of other comedians. The Oscars is basically one of the safest stages available to actors and Chris Rock getting smacked on stage sends a message that it's something you should do if any comedian pisses you off anywhere.

Of course many of them won't be performing in super secure venues. It happened again shortly after with Chappelle and it is not a coincidence.

IIRC Chris jokes about it saying "wow I got slapped by Will Smith", and when Smith made the infamous "get my wife's name out of your mouth" he said "okay, okay", and then kept rambling about unrelated things. he definitely seem flustered after that.

I don't condone the slap, but I always thought it was weird how people were so gungho to cancel Will over it. I think it was an asshole move, but I'm not going to judge his entire character on that action. I still like him.

Yes it is a coincidence. Chris Rock once had a bit where he blamed black people who were assaulted by police. The joke was to black people to shut up and take your disrespect from police. I guess we can blame him for what happen to him.

That is 100% what he is saying. Add to to the joke about there is a different between racial slur and black person. And letting sweaty white people get away with dropping the N bomb around him. Fuck that dude.

Use Common Sense ...don't make fun of a man's wife for years. Who is that much bigger and stronger then you. And in the words of Chris Rock.. if you do, maybe you need your ass kicked.
