If every person reacts to a joke like Will Smith did, Ricky Gervais would be dead by now.
Exactly!!!!
Soooo dead!!
All our comics would be dead...:(
Watch him be named the host of the next oscars
He would just have very red cheeks. A slap won't kill someone or even injure them
Lupita facial expression behind Will was classic. She goes from smiling and thinking it’s a bit to oh snap this is serious.
She was like, " you three dumb Americans".
Yes, Lupita was all of us!
Lupita will forever be connected with this moment, since she's in the frame, and with her facial expressions a stand-in for all of us.
Later, online searches for her will undoubtedly present this clip, over much of her other appearances and work.
She represented hundred of ppl with her shock face.
Agreed, her reaction was everything
In many many ways, this year's Oscars was a slap in the face.
Like Dan, my biggest problem with all of this was how hypocritical Will’s speech was after the fact. I can’t stomach hypocrites and they should always be called out on their BS no matter who the person is.
Nah, Will Smith defended his wife
@@williampearson6299 Will Smith assaulted a person on live television. A crime. He could’ve verbally defended her. Instead of making it physical. He’s a coward. If a big strong person would have said that, he wouldn’t have even stood up.
@@TomBlatildush and he stands to lose that Oscar he just won and be banned from the academy
@@williampearson6299 By laughing at the joke?
@@williampearson6299 you can keep posting the same response all over YT but it doesn’t make it right. Will is now a fool and a clown to millions of people whether you like it or not.
Fresh Prince of Bel Air and Everybody Hates Chris crossover was not what we expected. But credit to Chris Rock to kept it professional and continued the show.
We got the gritty Bel-Air reboot version of the Fresh Prince last night!
Maybe Jada has more health issues than people realise. But violence is never the answer. Also would Will Smith have slapped the Rock, or Winston Duke or Vin Disel if they made that same joke, probably not.
I can't believe I saw Oscar the Fish bitchslap that Zebra from Madagascar.
Amen...he really impressed me while Will lost all my respect
Imagine someone make insensitive fun of the First Lady in a Award Ceremony. What will happen? Though Will is not the President but hey, his the King.
The Academy Awards: Three hosts and apparently no security guards! The sad thing is the producers are probably happy that people are actually talking about something from the show.
some say it is scripted and I've heard responses like "as if the academy could intentionally create something like this" lmaoo
@@princeapoopoo5787 The slap did almost look fake but given Will's response in his acceptance speech, it must have been real. He was so thrown off. It feels like he ruined his big moment.
@@princeapoopoo5787 buhahahhaha! Honestly, they have been trying to make them exciting for YEARS and haven't been able to.
Next year onwards there will be lots of security guards.... all black so if a fight does break out they can stand and watch....LMAO
@@yeskev Yeah, I thought it was fake at first, but the more I watched it the more I believe it was real. Hell, there was even a police investigation report about the incident.
Will Smith's tears was from his shame of realizing that he forever tainted what should have been the most memorable night of his career.
The significance of him becoming the 5th black Best Actor has been totally lost.
I think the Academy purposely ignored it because they know how precarious their show already is. The backlash to that is, this also ruins a lot of good will comedians will have to present/host. Why would anyone want to sign up if they could get assaulted on stage, in front of everyone, without consequence?
He wasn't assaulted. They're friends. Chris isn't a b*tch
@@williampearson6299 so it's not assault if you're friends? Real classy take on that bit. I'm sure you're a hell of a lawyer.
@@mabusestestament Ricky Gervais would definitely still do it, but he also would sue the shit out of someone if they did that to him 😂
@@williampearson6299 He absolutely was assaulted
I think this concern is overstated.
There is a certain type of roast comedy employed by a certain subset of comedians. Kathy Griffin comes to mind, as she tweeted out something very similar to this comment (that every comedian now had to be worried about people walking onstage). Ricky Gervais is another.
Do they have to worry that somebody is going to walk onstage and punch them? Yes. But that was true before last night. It is a danger that comes with the territory of telling mean-spirited jokes directly to the faces of people who you know are not going to take it well.
But that's not every comedian, by any stretch of the imagination, and it's not even supposed to be every award show. That kind of comedy is only ever okay at The Golden Globes, where the stakes aren't high and everybody is there drinking and partying. The Oscars are the actual prestigious award show, and jokes there aren't supposed to tear people down.
So if, for example, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler (who should host every award show ever) were approached to host the Academy Awards, do we really think that they're going to be worried about being assaulted on stage? Probably not. They don't tell jokes that could ever provoke this sort of reaction. The vast majority of comedians don't. Hell, most comedians stick to the safest territory of all, self-effacing humor, and present the show as if it's a show full of beautiful, glamourous, wonderful people, being hosted by a peasant, unworthy to be in their presence. None of these comedians ever need to worry about getting punched, and aren't going to be irrationally worried about being the next assault victim.
Will Smith *won* the award but he *lost* the hearts 💔
What he did was downright unprofessional and inappropriate.
We still love Will Smith.
I will never see him in the same light again.
@@BeGo127 you are bang on the money
I really wanted Andrew Garfield to win for his performance in Tick Tick Boom.
I’m just shocked not even NWH could get the fan favorite voting, where were the MCU and Spiderman fans?
@@ryantheanimator1156 Actually going to the movie and not spamming Twitter in a desperate attempt to seem relevant. They simply didn’t care compared to the Snyder fans who just stay on Twitter and spam hashtags all the time.
Hell smith might have to give up his award
@@TheEducator89 come on now, Garfield did a great job, but he wasn’t robbed
Yeah. That was the one upset I expected to happen. Still happy for Will’s win
I feel bad for Questlove. A deserved win and wonderful speech being overshadowed by Smith hitting Chris.
Questlove is in the house?
It was such a powerful speech
Poor form of Will not directly apologising to the documentary winners as well, as he ruined their moment. I watched it live in Australia and couldn’t believe it. He could of just heckled Chris say “ Not Cool Man”.
Mind you that both Quest and Will are black men from Philadelphia, around the same age, and started their careers in music then branched off. Questlove directing a documentary and winning an Oscar should have been a high point, especially considering the film's focus on family, culture, and community. Will's unhinged actions shitted on a lot hard working people, not just Chris Rock.
Omg I know right
You know the academy is broken when a person can assault someone live on TV, go back to the audience to the enjoy the rest of the show...then get an award.
He's black privilege. Image a white guy doing that to Chris. Or a man to a female presenter.
Crazy, crazy stuff. I kinda feel sorry for Will as he completely wrecked what should have been the best night of his life. Props to Chris Rock who handled the situation pretty damn well considering just how out of line the reaction was. Just wow.
It looked like Will really teed off on him too but Rock barely reacted. Maybe Will made it look like he swung harder than he did and just used his fingertips.
Will Smith Should Be In Jail. Period.
@@Scorpion122178 He won't... Joking about somebody's sickness he deserves worse
@@ThePalkiaxdialga She's losing hair - not exactly life threatening. It's a common condition that should be normalized, not taboo. She has made light of it herself. Maybe the joke was in poor taste, but no more than any other joke about someone's physical appearance. He didn't deserve to be assaulted.
@@ThePalkiaxdialga will laughed at the joke lol gtfoh
What I personally don't understand is that they never brought Hugh Jackman back to host. For me that was one of the best Oscars I have seen.
Hugh Jackman has said that he would've hosted the Oscars as long as he's not busy filming movies by the time he does his Oscar preparation. Hell, why not bring Neil Patrick Harris back too, that would've been awesome
You know the Oscars is in a bad place when the commentary on it is what you look forward to more
You hit the nail on the head when you discussed what actually works at the Oscar’s, the human drama. The speech from the best supporting actor was really touching and reminds you why these awards can be so important.
It's almost as if the most important part of an award ceremony is the people who are being recognized for their accomplishments. 🤔
These awards are rubbish. Politics. The right are deplorable and the mighty privileged left are soooooooooo great! Gag me.
I cried when Troy won for best supporting actor, lady Gaga and Liza Minnelli presenting best picture to coda. But I just had a baby so with my hormones I cry very easily 😂
"After the slap" - Will Smith, Thanos of the Oscars
Instantly made Chris rock's manhood disappear.
0:06 dan taking cues from spiderman homecoming
I agree that his actions are completely indefensible. He soured the rest of the winners for the night who put in countless years of work that they are being recognized for.
My reaction is off the roof when Hans Zimmer won Best Original Score category, he really deserved it.
Yeah but he wasn't there ☹️. Momoa accepted it.
Yes he did! I realized a few days ago he'd be on tour in Europe the day of the ceremony. Maybe he would've made the trip if they didn't cut his category to the pre show
I was a big fan of Will but assaulting someone for a joke, is unacceptable, i hope there's going to be some consequences. Chris was the bigger man of the two.
Take his Oscar back
They are both in the wrong in my eyes
@@jacksonbrickmedia939 Chris rock made a harmless joke. That family should get over themselves.
@@jacksonbrickmedia939 Chris probably didn't even write that joke. He's a performer there telling jokes approved beforehand by the Academy. There's no both siding this, one is doing a standard insult comic routine, the other straight up battery. And I have alopecia myself.
@@jacksonbrickmedia939 if it was a joke about a bald guy would it be “wrong” and deserve assault?!
If you rewatched his reaction again before the slap, Will Smith was actually laughing at the joke while his wife looked annoyed. But once it cut to Chris again, then suddenly he walked up stage to slap Chris, he was a hypocrite because he clearly laughed at the joke at first. He even phoned in an apology to everyone but Chris who he assaulted.
I honestly think a lot of the people there just laugh automatically to not offened anyone, so maybe the joke just had not landed yet
you can laugh and still be pissed off especially if you're a real man who looks at his wife visibly being hurt by a joke about her illness....sometimes emotions get the worst of anyone....why are yal acting like people are people
It’s really weird, he is laughing but she’s clearly not having it, and within like 5 seconds he just snapped.
I know people are going to obsess about this for days but I can’t get too worked up about it.
Well. he was either going to slap Chris Rock or Jada was going to slap him with divorce papers. He made the right choice.
@@TheEandIShow Then maybe apologies for laughing at the joke, not assault the guy that made you laugh at something she is sensitive about.
19:30 - This entire point. 100%
Next year's show should be reunions of casts introducing heartfelt speeches by winners. Some songs, maybe a monologue and an in memorium - nothing else!
smith is officially an ass.hole after doing that
Gervais The Oscar!!!
and people wonder how come no one did anything about the sexual assaults for decades.....
What I find most disturbing, is that the Oscars pressured Kevin Hart, on not hosting the Oscars because of old tweets. Over text for Pete's sake.
But, here comes Will Smith who smacks another man, in his face. On stage. On live tv. And, there is no repercussions from the Oscars?
If nothing is going to happen to Will Smith, then the Oscars should make an open apology to Kevin Hart. And, ask him to host next year's oscars.
So what did we learn? Will Smith can't take a joke, but Chris Rock can take a punch.
Will smith can’t take a joke but everyone can take his wife.
Hell wasn't even a punch. It was a pimp slap. Should have had Jayden put baby powder in his hand
@@KeytarArgonian you know Jada was so impressed with Will that she let him stay in the room that night and watch
& jada is toxic for once good perceived men.
@@KeytarArgonian XD
Dan, this recap was more entertaining than the whole shlog of a show. Never laughed so hard since the Cocomelon days😂😂😂
What is Cocomelon?
@@themtgdude486 Oh, you sweet summer child.
(Dan has a video compilation the CocoMelon saga on his channel. Check it out. Its hilarious. But the tl;dr of CocoMelon is that it's a toddler's/kid's series that somehow every single person with children has it on)
Wait wasn't this guy in the screen junkies what happened
@Andy c The Right Stuff?
@@whitepeople1708 He both wanted to move away from LA and wanted more creative freedom, so he left SJ and created his own channel. They all still seem to be on good terms, Dan occasionally makes appearances on the SJ channel as a freelance contributer.
the joke was borderline and won't work outside the entertainment-business -if you are at a award ceremony...
BUT
this IS the entertainment business, most of them are very well paid and should be able to accept a joke on their behalf.
Ricky Gervais was right: so many of them take themselves way too serious.
Spot on. As always with celebrities, they think they've got it so hard and that the world revolves around them. Pity me, feel sorry for me, love me, urgh
He didn't slap him cuz of the joke. He didn't slap him to defend his "wife's" nonexistent honor. He slapped him cuz he's a mindbroken cuckold whose brain doesn't work like a normal person's.
What bothers me most is that a whole room gave him standing ovations just after hitting someone!
Everyone can make mistakes, Will was very emotional BUT the audience must have thought that behavior wrong? How can you cheer for that
Will Smith was acting like Putin
@@justayoutuber1906 don't trivialise what Putin does
That guy falls in a complete different category
Mad respect for Chris rock . He took it like a champ 🏆
Mad RESPECT for my man, Willy.
@@williampearson6299 nah he’s a clown
@@hashaskinner Chris has been clowning for a while and his jokes weren't that good
@@williampearson6299 so you assault someone who has bad jokes?
I don’t even think Chris wrote the joke, I reckon he was just reading it off the teleprompter. He stayed professional which would have been hard to do.
I'm happy at least Dune took the most awards....here's hoping we get that best picture for Part Two in 2024
Well deserved, indeed. Here's hoping that Part Two isn't messed up.
Still waiting to see it on streaming, everything I’ve heard tells me I will really enjoy it.
@@sum1rllyspecial Beyond amazing 👏
And one for the director would be nice. Villeneuve clearly deserves it by now.
@@noenken I was under the presumption that the film directed itself /j
Dude ... I hope whoever runs these ceremonies listens to you. Coz you've made some excellent points
What Dan said makes too much sense for the people who run this thing to actually implement.
I agree that this is reflective of what you can get away with if you’re a star. I thought it was indefensible, and the fact that everyone just ignored it, and he faced no consequences for literally assaulting someone…I just am so disgusted.
I'm also just so floored by the whole thing too. Can't believe they just brushed it under the rug so quickly like what the hell is wrong with these people? Absolutely mental beyond belief
From this, you immediately understand why all the rich and powerful people get away with heinous things in Hollywood for many years
Can we all just agree that Chris Rock should have host the Oscar? His one joke, made it more watchable than those three were doing for hours.
The 2022 oscars were like an episode of the twight zone. A bunch of Hollywood standing for change in so many areas; except when they stood for will smith getting an Oscar after slapping someone across the face less than an hour earlier. I'm baffled by all of this.
Exactly! I hate the fact that everyone is talking only about Will Smith smashing situation when we had some many precious moments. Lady Gaga woderfully supporting Liza Minnelli - big kudos for Lady Gaga! That was the classy behavior. Jessica Chastain arrived earlier at Oscars to support her make up crew, plus she had really nice speech, very well crafted for the the movie and Tammy Faye Baker persona. No one really cares about that. Kenneth Branagh wise speech with history of Belfast. People from Coda having wonderful joy together after announcements.
Agreed with you 100% about Will Smith. He had an opportunity to rise above and failed then made himself seem even more ridiculous with his speech. Imagine the Eric Andre meme where he shoots someone. That's Will Smith turning around talking about love lmao.
That shit was insane. I noticed Will laughed too. The only thing I can imagine is that he looked over and saw Jada’s feelings were hurt and snapped.
Same. Which I bet is not quite how Jada would have wanted him to respond lol.
Will thinking, how would Tupac react... oh I know , I'll finally win her love so watch this
@@alexisnaranjo Lol! He was out of character for sure.
You right. He was 'out" of Character because he's not making a movie it's his Real life, his Real situation. You have no idea what he has gone through. Don't judge. Doesn't make him a bad "Actor"?! Hello?
His laugh wasn't cause he thought it v was funny then changed his mind, if you're familiar with the Philly area you understand what was going thru his mind was "I can't believe this MFer just disrespected my wife like that for the 2nd time at the Oscar's... Oh hell no!" Also despite her being open about it, women identify their femininity by a few factors: our breasts, hair, uterus. Imagine a woman who carries the Cancer gene & elects to remove her breasts ... would a joke be appropriate then? No! Is violence the answer no, but also back in the day of a man owned another's wife he'd slap the man across the face which could end the situation or a duel would ensue.
Regardless of The Incident, I did not love Will Smiths performance in King Richard. I would have liked to see Andrew Garfield win, he was incredible in tick tick Boom
Same I had a couple of people who I thought would have been more deserving
They were both phenomenal, and I would have been happy to see either of them win.
who cares and who asked
So when i watched Dune at home in my 'theatre' (lol), i came upstairs and told my wife, "i didn't see a movie, that was more like the Dune Experience". I thought at the time, anyone who had anything to do with the score, cinematogrophy, the sound, the editing, they should all win oscars. So yesterday wasn't shocking at all, i clapped every time....*ESPECIALLY FOR HANS ZIMMER, THE GOAT IMO*.
So it's settled. Dan should be producing The Oscars from now on. Imagine the actual producers thinking this clearly on the event.
Will Smith actually sat and laughed at the joke - after Chris Rock said the punchline. The live feed showed us this. So, it's not the joke that made him walk up and punch the comedian; it's more likely his own embarrassment when noticing his wife's reaction at him laughing at the joke.
Look up Reese Weatherspoon teleporting on the TH-cams. The live reactions my not be live.
@@Scorpion122178 We know why.
This video: *Just a half-hour of me nodding my head in agreement to everything Dan said*
Something I noticed, that I haven't seen anyone else mention, is Wills reaction to a "joke" earlier in the evening. When Regina Hall was dragging single actors up on stage for her to "covid test" she implied that Jada would be perfectly okay with her stealing Will. Will did not look at all amused and emphatically stated that he would remain with his wife, that he loved his wife. To me he looked very fragile at that moment and so I was only marginally surprised when he lashed out at Chris.
For the Oscars to be, relatively, successful, what they need to do is pretty simple, obvious stuff: Have 1 host, cut the unnecessary "comedy" bits, present every award live, allow winners to finish their speeches (especially the awards with multiple winners), & modernize the award categories (add stunt coordination, casting director, and voice performance). Keep the reunions and only have performances of nominated songs. The Oscars don't need frills. The Oscars are great because it's the OSCARS. It's the pinnacle. The rest will take care of itself.
Exactly.
No frills? £140,000 gift bags anyone?
The slap was already a completely out of line reaction to a distasteful joke. But had he just sat back down, most people would have probably remained under the impression it was staged. Chris Rocks reaction was playful enough. But no, Will Smith had to start screaming threats like a lunatic and turn the whole thing insanely uncomfortable.
The joke wasn't a great look for Rock, but Smith lost any sympathy.
The joke was harmless. Alopecia isn’t a fatal illness. It’s literally just baldness. It was an extremely tame joke.
@@Gino565 i would say there's a difference between male baldness that is common and no one cares. To female baldness due a disease that most people doing a double take in public if you saw it. Let's be fair here, still not the worst joke but not the most clean either. Will is obviously overreacted though.
Dude... I still think it's scripted.
It's *their job*.
Why does everyone conveniently forget that?
@@samf.s.7731 Will Smith angrily shouting the F-word on live TV after hiting a guy is activly damaging to his career. Why would he agree to this just for the Oscars rating? His reputation is far more important to him then TV ratings. And now it's damged.
@@Gino565 I consider a joke at some else expence always a pretty cheap shot. Don't make fun of other people. But yeah, making fun of baldness really isn't that harsh and in no way justifies such an outburst.
As per usual, Dan's commentary is spot on.
The star treatment is a great description of this whole fiasco
Glad you explained the polling Dan. I sat blankly in my livingroom baffled by how they got these results. They should've had tiny font displayed on the tele-cast "Source Twitter". If they do it next year they should ask IMDb users.
Also Timothée Chalamet going shirtless is one of the best Oscar moment ever.
Yuck
In 1994 Steven Spielberg beat Jane Campion in the Best Director category. This year Campion beat Spielberg in the best Director category, ironic but hey good for both of them 😂🙌
GOOD point!!!! At first I thought you meant "beat" like Will Smith did to Chris Rock!! 😂😂
@@bev9708 I'm trying to find other topic to discuss about this Oscars. I think everyone said enough about Will Smith's situation so I'm gonna go for other topics 😂😂 I know Will's incident was the main topic of this Oscars but I feel bad for the winners who got overshadowed by this shitty situation
@@15Candles Some of us are only just waking up and getting the news!!! So...
I never thought a half-hour of rant would be so nice to hear. :D You truly represent the voice of many people.
From the slapping incident, I was impressed by Chris Rock's self-control, he somehow prevent the situation from getting worse.
“Then you lose the high ground. You’re Anakin Skywalker at that point.” YESSSSS 😂😂😂
It’s sad how the slap overshadowed everything. And the fact The Academy didn’t do anything about that is really gross. I didn’t give a shit about his award after that. That was terrible.
This was a crazy turn of events. Like, nobody saw this one coming.
Over shadowed what exactly. No one watches the Oscars. It’s the reasons the rating are down.
Nomination or not, Will should have been escorted out by security. You may find a joke not funny or distasteful, but there are other ways to react to it. At least I thought so, before going on twitter and seeing a bunch of people including John Rocha and others not only condoning it but actually cheering for what Will did. From "Punch a nazi" we have come to "Punch a comedian"
You know John Rocha is trash
I'm disappointed, but not surprised, to hear Rocha responded like that.
Things like this are one of the reasons I'm not active on social media.
This is my favourite Dan Murrell intro to a video since his "Hello" at the top of the Fandom Cats movie review.
I love when you break things down... you're so good at discussing central aspects of a viewing experience
My two cents on the Smith Vs. Rock saga: 1. Will Smith knew he was going to win the Best Actor category yet still allowed his emotions and ego to crap the bed he has spent decades making, and 2. Chris Rock declined to lay charges against Mr Smith. Perhaps it was because he felt partly guilty to the events, perhaps he had his arm twisted by the Academy not to do so, perhaps he thought it would send a wrong message to his African American audience in the wake of BLM... I honestly don't know. What I do know is that a criminal investigation of the matter would mean that Chris Rock wouldn't be able to comment on the incident on his current worldwide stand up tour.
Regardless of who got the gold and pathetic standing ovation, Chris Rock is going to have the last laugh.
You’re entire comment is Brilliant Clayton.
Only a bitch goes to the feds for gettin slapped over somethin they said. Tbh I think will kept it g for first time in years and prolly gained a lil respect back from people after how downbad he been seeming all year he at a breaking point n mfs keep ripping into him I think slapping him was best thing he could do cuz now nobody finna be talkin shit about him or his wife 🤷🏼♂️
@@fraueimerkopf5541 lol yea brilliant
@@dannyhaslam8087 oh yes, very g to stand up there crying about how his job is so hard after slapping a guy for making the tamest jokes on the world
I've only seen the clips so I may be missing context, but it seems to me that Will Smith felt embarrassed in front of Jada after laughing at the joke and panicked as he realised he hadn't immediately supported her publicly. I imagine he felt he had to do something quickly and hugely overreacted, maybe even wondering what he was doing as we was doing it. But he made a decision and kept doubling down. I've seen this kind of thing outside nightclubs dozens of times! Just weird to see it on such a stage.
Yeah, there was too much of a delay between him laughing at the joke and slapping Chris. Whether Jada said something to Will off camera or he felt embarrassed for his initial reaction, he made a conscious decision to take it too far.
My comment above on the subject was this "Will Smith literally laughed at the joke as it was being made until he saw that his wife, who I'm just gonna guess Smith has some issues of emasculation around for...reasons, wasn't taking it well, so he had to big man up."
@@andothersuchnonsense2685 Hitting someone for making an insensitive joke is not "manning up." He could have handled that as a responsible adult in many other ways, as Dan said. Instead of commanding respect, he lost it.
you are half obligated to laugh at the jokes. so when he felt it was over the line, thats when he went up. what's with "felt embarrassed of laughing" bullshit?
When will he get it that he ain’t just doing it for her anymore!
Btw, Dan you are so smart and wise … and to pull together these incredibly rational thoughts so quickly is so impressive.
Great commentary on the Oscars! Very articulate and a lot of great points about what worked and didn't on the telecast.
I used to do an Oscars recap video like this every year... for 8 or 9 years in a row? Usually took me all night to pull the clips, and edit everything down to < 10 minutes.
Glad there's still channels putting in the work for this stuff, haha 👍😁 So, thanks for your hard work. It is appreciated.

They could have only the "Here's the nominees, here's the winner, acceptance speech" bit, and nothing else. That would be a solid show. Giving a few extra seconds of speech time would be an added bonus.
Or bring in better hosts like Chappelle, Gervais, Hart, Mulaney, Burnham, Burr etc...
@@HumbleNarcissist0 oohh. Burnham would be super interesting. Idk if he'd even want to but I always love Bo
Honestly, that would be amazing. Additionally, they would have time to show longer clips of the movies nominated, and more time for speeches. The hosts can even banter a little about the movies nominated, at least that would keep things tightly focused on the whole point of this show.
This. It honestly felt like they intentionally did 'what the show' should be' backwards.
The Oscars should be 30 minutes ideally; an hour tops. And if they want to upload all of the other random stuff online and hope something goes viral, then fine. But the 'super bowl halftime' stuff isn't why anyone who cares about the Oscars is watching.
@@HumbleNarcissist0 there is no way they would get Chappell and I doubt he would want to do it. Bo Burnham singing would make for a great host
One of my favorite moments was Kevin Costner giving a very emotional and moving monologue to film before presenting the best director Oscar. And it was quickly followed by Jane Campion receiving her Oscar and telling Costner he was being a bit dramatic. Wtf Jane??
Just watched several of your recent videos and ❤️ your reviews and humor, you just gained a new subscriber. Thanks Dan!
Hey, I love Will Smith, but this is definitely indefensible! I say keep the focus on the winners for now, even Will's one, and let it die down. But Will's actions have to have repercussions.
Nope. I stand by Will Smith. You guys just want drama. Will and Chris are friends and they will sort it out amongst each other
@@williampearson6299 I doubt it. You cannot humiliate a man in public and then continue as friends. Chris Rock's joke was very inoffensive. Will Smith is just a very emasculated man.
I don’t get why they didn’t merge the performance of no time to die and the 60th Bond tribute together
For an industry literally devoted to film-making, the Oscars never seems to understand good storytelling
@@jaycievictory8461 I think the problem is the show they want to glam up too much and not the art of the films. It’s like best original score if we can hear best song they can’t play a small orchestral suite of the score?
Thank you so much, Dan, for helping me win my Oscar pool! :)
LMAO that Morbius shade at the end ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
We're definitely living in a dystopian world indeed. This Oscars was like a parody of itself that we get in a comedy tv show 20 years ago.
So weird. I rolled my eyes a lot during the entire show.
Until I see Frank Drebin roll down stairs at one of these shows, they're all failures.
Oh finally I can put my finger on it, that's exactly what it is: parody-level weird.
The cynical way everybody including Will where just laughing after is shoking.
It felt like a scene from the simpsons
I’m sure a lot of people have wanted to slap Chris rock in the face. His humour is crude. But I have to say he took the slap and handled it professionally and kept going. Got to give him respect for that.
If You Think His Humors Crude You Should Watch George Carlin
@@christianphrenger7902 George Carlin and Don Rickles are two of the best ever.
Your background is so great! Thanks for your commentary. Spot on!
Loved the section where you and your wife are watching the live show and in total shock!! Priceless!!
Dan the voice of reason as always.
I for one have the question of "Did Chris Rock know she has alopecia?" Because I for one didn't know, so yeah super crazy and the reaction afterwards just shows how power and intimidation work in Hollywood. We just saw why Harvey Weinstein was able to do what he did with no consequences.
He shouldn’t have made fun of her head. He should’ve made fun of her for fucking her sons friend.
I have the same question. I had no idea before this. Sure, it was a bad joke. And, whether intentionally or not, Chris made her feel bad. But physical assault is not an acceptable response.
Why is it relevant to know if she has alopecia? If he did is it now ok to assault someone who makes fun of it?
I really hope you're joking with this response
Probably not. At least Alopecia caused by autoimmune issues is generally reversible through dietary restrictions and rebuilding a healthy gut biome. While a difficult condition to deal with at least it is curable. While not in the best taste it shouldn't have been an off limits topic in my opinion.
This...was...awesome! My fav vid of yours my dude. Entertained from start to finish 👏👏
How many recaps have you watched about the slap?
Me: yes
EXACTLY!!!! WTF!!!!! 😂😂 Especially because at first Will also laughed!!! I keep WAITING for people to mention that!!! THANK YOU Dan Murrell!!!
For one night Dan has felt what it's like to be a wrestling news TH-camr, not just the physicality, but all the mind-boggling decisions and disappointment.
🤣
thanks Dan for your insights and commentaries
Dan you nailed it with your perspective. Thank you for sharing.
Chris Rock needs more praise for how he handled that situation.
Not really, it commonly happens to comics who routinely are deliberately rude or upsetting. Even in comedy, it is best to follow the rule of :"Don't be a dick". Now my opinion of two comedian/actors is lower.
@@jfess1911 It commonly happens to comics who routinely are deliberately rude or upsetting? I'll admit i'm not an avid comedy special watching or even much of an awards show watcher, but this is the first time I can recall in which an A list actor stormed the stage in front of a thousand atendees and assaulted a comedian on Live National Television... I doubt something like that is "routine."
@@phillipmilner9940 I did not say it was "routine" on an award show. But it is indeed common if a comic makes insulting or insensitive remarks about people's loved ones in nightclubs. It is typically a mistake that a comic learns to avoid.
Making fun of someone's unfortunate medical condition is not cool under any circumstance. Jada Pinkett Smith is apparently not bald by choice.
I am certain that Rock has been praying that Jada Pinkett Smith does not have a more serious condition that had yet to become public. If so, this will go down as one of the most insensitive remarks ever made on live TV. If you know anyone who has gone through chemotherapy, you know how horrible it can be.
The Academy is furiously trying to think of scenarios of celebrities fighting each other for next year's show lol
This is an amazing take on the show this year! 💫💫💫
I had “Will Smith slaps Jacob Trembley” as the tie-breaker in my Oscar pool.
So close
You know who says shit like “love makes you do crazy things?”
Domestic abusers do. This was physical violence, and anyone who thinks it’s acceptable is dumber than a box of rocks. I do not care about Jada’s alopecia. It doesn’t matter. You don’t get to meet words you don’t like with violence. He should have been removed from the building. Someone could accept the Oscar on his behalf.
Chris Rock for example.
No kidding, Will needed to be removed. The Academy’s pathetic “we don’t condone violence” tweet did no favors, because they did condone it, and supported it by failing to act.
Congratulations, Academy, you’ve made this acceptable. What complete tools.
Great video Dan, I'm still sad the Dune director didn't even get nominated; I thought he deserved that at least.
Yeah I hope he gets nominated and wins for part 2. Similar to what happened with Peter Jackson and Return of the King, way back.
Excellent analysis and review!!!!
The TikToks with the All Star song and the slap were almost instantaneous. lol
Dan! For real! You must tweet your "WTF" right now. So sincere, so real, instant meme!
Too be safe, next year all the awards should be presented by wrestlers!
It'll be hosted via Zoom next year.
Thank you. I have been amazed at the many people who just excuse this. Its blowing my mind.
as soon as this went done, I knew I had to see your response. And you nailed it! Unreal!
I just watched the 20 second clip when Will Smith dropped the mask for once and nothing else. When I saw that Amy Schumer was one of the hosts I already knew it would be bad.
I completely agree with you about the host situation. Just get someone who is a natural in that role, do less bits and have more time for the awards. Billy Crystal always did a great job, I think Graham Norton would be fantastic today. And please bring back all awards into the show! If the Academy thinks it is worth recognising these categories, then they shouldn't be left out of the actual ceremony.
Maybe they'll get a good AI host once the ceremony moves to the metaverse. 🤞
@@qwertyferix
No.
Twice.
You can't stop progress!
@@qwertyferix Correct. Good thing neither of the things you mentioned are.
I'm glad you opened with the big event of the show. Excellent analysis.
love your channel Dan, very genuine
Your bit talking about the Zak Snyder twitter poll results is the funniest thing I’ve seen in ages.
Ricky Gervais golden words about award shows still true! 😂😂
Yeah I just think anyone who really supports Will Smith is kind of advocating for a ridiculous precedent for comedians. I like that we live in a society that grants comedians the freedom to tell controversial jokes or roast people in the audience, especially an insanely wealthy audience. Also the joke wasn't even all that bad, it was a GI Jane joke for God's sake It's fine.
@@tempestfury8324 idk when I was a kid my mom was a big fan of G.I. Jane lol.
@@tempestfury8324 You sound like a pleasure to be around.
Excellent review, Dan, as always. I appreciated all points including how the Academy could make it a much better show. Thanks!
As always, an excellent breakdown and summary of an awards show I never watched, but of course followed on twitter after The Slap.
