like, does everything have to be narrative?

he's an actor. he has a movie coming out. this is pretty normal for actors. does it have to be his "redemption arc?"

that being said, i don't really care. i hope all parties involved are in the best place they can be and getting help if they need it.

He should have taken Django when he had the chance.

BTW, this movie looks terrible (like Amatuerish) on my 4k TV. Looks like him and Antione FuQua shot it in my backyard with video cameras.

He gave Chris a comically mechanical “gentlemen’s” slap, that looked like he wanted to challenge him to an old-timey duel at ten paces, and with long barrel pistols.

He needs to make amends with *Chris*.
Possibly the academy, if he even cares.

But that’s it. He doesn’t owe anyone else a damn thing, and there’s no reason for anyone to think it’s “too soon” for him to ply his trade and move on.

...aka the mainstream.

Will Smith is on Mike Vick status right now. The level of disdain is very high and very surprising.

He needs a redemption arc if he cares about continuing to be successful.

people wanted Vick dead, or at least to suffer great pain.

no one hates Will on that level. they're just mad at him

We will pretty much be able to measure racism mathematically by the difference between how he’s treated versus Vick lol

i think, in a lot of ways, Will has become a parody of himself. I can't ever take him seriously again, especially after the Oscars and that apology video.

just like they did with music and television before it. Awful award bait slop that people will eat up.

In response to Reply # 0


          

- He slapped
- Disappeared for a few months

It was faux outrage from the jump. Same folks who were up in arms voted for a dude who was caught on a Hot Mic talking about sexually assaulting women.

More ashy folks were mad at Jada and claimed to have seen some eye roll that appears nowhere on video.

None of Will's money is going to stop and he's probably going to win at least two more awards that he won't be there to pick up in the next 3-5 years.
