@Catseye3 said in Academy Awards - Will Smith Edition:
Resigning seems over the top.
I'll bet it was pre-emptive. It's one of those "You can't fire me! I QUIT." things.
You can argue whether he should or shouldn't have done it, but resigning from SAG gives the incident more relevance than is warranted.
Did he resign from the SAG or the Academy?

Yeah, well, I seriously doubt Will would take a poke at Shaq, discretion being the better part of valor.

This was on CBS Sunday Morning. It's about the most sensible thing I've heard on it, although it really goes nowhere. Much like the original event.

The Academy bans Will Smith from attending the Ceremonies for 10 years. Smith gets to keep all awards already earned, and continues to be eligible for future nominations and future awards.

The Oscars present a convenient ambush spot for out of line comedians unfairly attacking our most honored celebrities, but it is hardly the only venue where comedians are exposed. I would caution those "jokesters" to allow discretion to be the better part of valor, and stop making fun of famous people. It is simply not worth it. And let's be honest - it is simply never funny to bully celebrities with hurtful words.

That video is horrible. You just know that she is worse in private.

What's also just plain weird is the fact that this was recorded.
Would anyone you know have a conversation like that with your spouse and freaking RECORD IT?

Not weird at all. Recording it was the point.
