This is not what we needed right now.
Garth Brooks. LOOK IT UP.
It is rather pathetic how Much you guys are milking this thing it is really really pathetic
I still can't believe Will Smith slapped a guy, swore on national television and won an Oscar and preached about love all within 30 minutes
That’s an interesting career
Now Will Smith is an overrated AFTER he slapped Chris Rock during the Oscars
Should have left him in bel air
No kidding 😂
Yeah he has some obvious issues which needs to be fixed. I don’t think he should be “canceled” or fired but he does need to be punished and get the help he needs.
I still can't get over that Shakespeare in love winning best picture over Saving Private Ryan
@Julian Hall Yep, me neither. Saving Private Ryan was a way better movie than Shakespeare in Love.
It was pretty much down to Harvey Weinstein campaigning, extremely unfair
Some sappy date took me to Shakespeare in love. Barf.
@@jennyrose9454 Yikes. He should have taken you to see Saving Private Ryan, not Shakespeare in Love.
I can, it’s the better film
I believe that people have forgotten that the 1974 Oscar winner for best documentary, hearts and minds, was controversial because the winner actually read out an acceptance speech that was a telegram from the north Vietnamese delegation. The audience was booing and hissing and Bob Hope had to come out and do a disclaimer afterwards. People forgot that people were really pissed off about that award
I do NOT agree with the Marissa Tomei part, how did anyone doubt her performance in My cousin vinny!? That movie is phenomenal and her performance is a major part of that! Can't believe how heated that got me but wth, she's incredible and especially in that movie. I think she 1000% earned that win!
What she said!! +10000
Absolutely. The fact that she was able to win from a comedy genre shows how good her performance was.
I think it is due to the fact that it is a comedy. Simple as that. People sill don't think comedy performances can be award worthy and it must be high dramatic performance. Comedies are not taken seriously enough, ironically and that is the issue
I came to the comments to say this. Marissa Tomei was brilliant in My Cousin Vinny and it’s terrible that this rumor has followed her all these years.
Marisa Tomei's first name has one "s"
This was just an excuse to show Chris Rock getting slapped
First time?
I was thinking the same thing!
No shit
As for Citizen Kane not winning, it wasn't really that surprising. Citizen Kane is an unauthorized biopic of William Randolph Hearst and he basically owned Hollywood in the 40s. The academy would have given the award to Orsen Wells and co, but Hearst threatened the academy and they backed down.
Orson Welles has two e's in his last name
Elizabeth Taylor's win for Butterfield 8. She had just recovered from a serious illness where she almost died. Many felt her win was a sympathy vote.
Also, I am not sure if winning a Golden Globes counts on your list, but just im case it does, two words: Pia Zadora
Oh my God I think she was in a movie called the lonely woman, I saw it and it was just god awful that movie
I should've know. That Will Smith/Chris Rock slap at the Oscars were the trending topic of 2022.
Still going..good lord. 😂
And topic alone is not over and will dominate for the rest of 2022.
If Will doesn't slap Chris, it's just Chris having to live with making a bad joke. But no, Will wanted all the attention.
Good grief, I still think Martin Scorsese should have gotten his long due award for Best Director for GoodFellas during the 90s rather than having him wait another sixteen freaking years for The Departed. Just Saying. GoodFellas is, hands down, my fave Scorsese film.
Oh, and honestly, the less said about the Will Smith slap, the better. That will definitely be the only Oscar he'll have on his mantelpiece.
What’s really wack is that Ray Liotta wasn’t even nominated for an Oscar for GoodFellas. Ray Liotta killed that sh!t yo. Beyonce should have won, Adele even said it in her acceptance speech. Adele broke her Grammy in half and tried to give half of it to Beyonce.
We never expected the self proclaimed "Mr. Nice guy" Will Smith, of all people, to react the way that he did. It would have been like if nice old Weird Al Yankovic was to slap someone.
Will Smith will be remembered for that slap on Chris Rock.
That and how the slap tanked his career
@@jimjones9631 for sure!
@@jimjones9631 tanked his career? 😄🤣😂😆.
You must be kidding right?
@@giizodamulla7492 I mean having projects dropped and sony holding all projects he's involved in is a pretty big deal.
@@jimjones9631 even if he never does a big movie again, he's legacy is definitely set.There are people in the industry who have done far worse than slap someone on stage
With so many Watchmojo lists on how much the Oscar's and the Grammy's made such poor decisions, I think it's safe to say that those who are tasked with making said decisions need to resign...
Mojo is milking the hell out of this. How many categories can y'all throw "the slap" in?
Moo
Watchmojo is truly milking the Will Smith/Chris Rock incident
Dances With Wolves is my favorite movie and I think Kevin did a great job directing. I will die alone on this hill apparently. I love the other movies too, but Dances is beautiful.
Really? Waterworld too ??
Dances with wolves was an outstanding movie. I totally concur with you on this subject. You are not going to die alone on this hill because I will be with you.
@@fallback3206
As will I 🙋
I TOTALLY AGREE!!
BUT ..... GOODFELLAS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
My Cousin Vinny, is a great movie! I don’t mind her winning.
@Brad Paul Heck, me neither. I've seen that movie some years ago and I really enjoyed it.
Kevin Costner totally deserved an Oscar for Dances with Wolves.
My man will inspired another top 10 single handedly 😂😂😂
Hattie McDaniel was the 1st Black woman to win an Oscar. Seeing this award was won during Jim Crow America, strings had to be pulled just to get her in the BUILDING, & the only person she sat with was her agent.
Not really a faulty win, but it definitely wasn't well received at the time.
She was not going to b invited to the academy awards has it not been for Clark Gable saying he wont attend if Hattie wudnt.
With Polanski’s Best Director win, I was happy for the direction of The Pianist winning, I was not happy that it was Polanski
Love the work/project, hate the person
Like Woody Allen.
As a close personal friend of Samantha Geimers, so do I!!!!
Gotta separate the art from the artist sometimes.
Should've won Best Picture! The Pianist is much better than Chicago
I think the point is that he shouldn't have been able to make the art in the first place.
Stevie Wonder attempting to look at the card to see the name but is actually blind KILLS ME 😂
Number 5 on this list should be entitled "Will Smith Slaps Chris Rock," not "Will Smith Wins Best Actor." If his performance in "King Richard," is good enough to earn him an Academy Award, great! The controversy is about his violent, foul-mouthed temper tantrum. They are two separate things.
Before the infamous slap, I think the debatable moments of wins at the Oscars was down to either Crash winning Best Picture or Marlon Brando winning Best Actor. The latter which involved him not being present and letting some activist accept it on his behalf.
Man you guys are really milking the Will Smith fiasco huh😐
Watchmojo be like "how many times can we reference the Oscar slap in different videos"?
I’m sick of people saying Marisa Tomei’s Academy Award win was not deserved. They obviously have never seen the movie…she steals EVERY scene she’s in and that courtroom scene is utter perfection! Comedy is award worthy when you have award worthy actors show why Comedy should be taken more seriously…Tomei 100% deserved it and her and Joe Pesci were comedy gold!
People literally scream about the Oscar’s not rewarding comedic performances the first time one does it comes with a mass conspiracy about she didn’t actually win. Sigh. 😞
@@braydenfitzsimmons6824 Right?! Don’t get me wrong, all the women she was nominated with are legends and for a reason, but she turned out a legendary performance that year. One of the few cases where the person who should’ve won actually won!
Totally agree
Will Smith rightfully won Best Actor because his performance in King Richard was phenomenal
definitely
yes it is. But he also ruined his own winning moment. This should have been the pinnacle of his career
Yea. He made himself look stupid and insecure. But there is no denying his achievement. Which is what I hate about cancel culture. They find out someone did something or said something shitty in the past and want to strip the person awards. Like, you can stop liking them, but you can't change history. They still did achieve things lol
Either be him or Andrew Garfield imo.
@@bobthedopeman7327 Nobody is denying will his win and his perforamance. Nobody is denying him of his talent. If that was overshadowed by his insecurity, then Will really has no one to blame but himself
It crazy how The Fresh Prince, Agent J and the badass fighter pilot from Independence Day will forever be remembered for the Cowardly Slap 2022.
I never liked what they said about La La Land to Moonlights award but the slap heard round the world is history
Most of these are not controversial, just not liked by fans. That is a difference..
Huh???
Huh???
People are really milking this Will Smith Slap incident
I said the same thing
And yet, it's still not over.
Ya'll are definitely getting as much usage out of this Will Smith situation as possible.
The Academy rarely gets the Best Picture winner correct. They always go with safe choices (Crash, CODA, Green Book, Shakespeare in Love, etc.). Good movies but definitely not the best of the year.
CODA is brilliant though. Green Book was great as well
The Power of The Dog, Drive My Car and Dune were way better than Coda
@@glenwarne7518 The Dog movie got mixed reception. Many people and voters couldn't finish it. You either like it or you don't. And Dune was no chance it would win..
Why would crash be safe? The movie actually showed that everybody has the capacity to be prejudiced. Most movies make white Christian males the bad guy/evil person
The problem i have with Layla is not that it was acoustic but the fact that it's a retooling of an old song. It had it's shot in the 70s. It doesn't deserve another one.
@Marge Garland Yep, you are absolutely right. You couldn't have put it better. Nirvana should have won that year for either Smells Like Teen Spirit or Come As You Are.
To be honest, Will Smith’s win wasn’t that controversial until “the slap” occurred. In fact Will Smith was billed as the “next person that should’ve won the Oscars” after Leonardo DiCaprio got his first Oscar win for Best Actor at the 88th Academy Awards.
#20-17 That's BS
#16 That's a tough one. Costner's directing was good and so was Marty's. I was fine with either one
#15 Grammys made the right call
#14 That's BS. Citizen Kane should've won
#13 Eminem should've won
#12 no opinion here
#11 Oscars made the right call. She deserved it
#10 i'm not commenting that one
#9 that's BS
#8 That's BS. Saving Private Ryan should've won. Love only won for 2 reasons 1.Harvey 2.Weinstein
#7 no opinion here
#6 That's BS, there are no hollywood conservatives
#5 Will Smith deserved that Oscar, What he did that night was terrible though
#4 Beyonce should have won
#3 His performance in the movie and the film itself sucked
#2 well this is laughable. frauds shouldn't win awards
#1 Roman is a garbage human being. Marty should've won
"6 That's BS, there are no hollywood conservatives". Yes there were many back then. In fact, they changed how a movied is selected because the conservatives boycott some movies. The Brasilian movie Cidade de Deus is the best exemple.
@@paulodelima5705 yep, Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lawrence have outright said multiple times they were Republicans until 2016.
My father met Jeff Daniels during the filming of Gettysburg. He volunteered to be in the movie.
"Will Smith just slapped the S*** out me"
Chris Rock
Also Michael Caine, who won Best Supporting Actor over Tom Cruise (Magnolia), Michael Clarke Duncan (The Green Mile), and Haley Joel Osment (The 6th Sense)
I can't believe Brando's refusal for his best actor Oscar for 'The Godfather' is not on this list.
You can also bring up George C Scott's refusal for winning the Oscar for Patton
@@BFA100 Definitely.
Marissa tomei deserved that oscar. Entertaining af and the best part of the movie. A nice change from her counterparts
When Moonlight won for best picture at the Academy Awards, I wasn’t sure it was going to win that year. I wasn’t sure what it was about but it felt like a cop out for the LGBT community. I thought LaLaLand or Hidden Figures would’ve won. I was so confused that year and I’m surprised it wasn’t on this list
Arrival should have won that year.
there's no way that la la land would have won at that time

A slap that'll turn into countless videos and controversial ones
It's crazy how Game of Thrones seasons 5-8 won best Outstanding Drama Series at the Emmys.. but not their best seasons, 1-4.
Thank you for not ranking the most recent one in a top spot just because it's freshest in our minds.
@MissDoubleNegative Exactly. It may have been controversial, but it is nowhere near as controversial as what Harvey Weinstein pulled off with Shakespeare in Love. I mean, Saving Private Ryan was definitely the more superior movie of the two.
I agree with all the entrees in this list except for number for 4, I love Beyoncé but Adele definitely deserved to win the Grammy for album 💿 of the year.
25 was more successful as well
Man I thought crash was the best movie that year.... broke back mountain was big because of the subject matter but to me crash also had a great subject matter about humanity
Toy Story 4 winning over Klaus
The movies that should've won for Best Picture:
1. Citizen Kane
2. GoodFellas
3. Saving Private Ryan
4. The Green Mile
5. Brokeback Mountain
6. Inception
7. Moneyball
8. Django Unchained
9. Mad Max: Fury Road
10. Get Out (2017)
11. A Star Is Born (2018)
12. 1917 (2019)
13. Dune (2021)
Totally agree
#12. As great as 1917 was by a technical stand-point, Parasite was the most deserving to win Best Picture of 2019, let alone the fact that Parasite was the first foreign language film to win the biggest award in Oscar history.
@@archangeljophiel2019 Thank You
@@ajpat9620 I don't watch foreign language movies.
@@frankiegalindo980 Regardless, it's what the Academy picked to as its Best Picture winner on Parasite, making a foreign film to win the biggest honor in Oscar history, and the first to do so.
the worst about the Will incident is, that he can keep his Oscar and can get nominated again! What kinda punishment is a 10 years ban from being at the ceremony when you still have chances to win? And that was their decision after it was announced that he resigned from the academy!
Top 10 Great movies that were badly advertised.
Emil Jannings: the first-ever Best-Actor-of-the-Year Oscar winner (1929) who's American career ended when talking pictures arrived. He quickly flew back to his native Germany to resume his film career there... and joined a certain up-&-coming Political Party!!
Will Smith getting that Oscar win right after he slapped Chris Rock and getting to keep the award was just baffling. If he doesn't get banned for life for that slap, I'll be shocked.
He actually has been banned from future ceremonies, not for life, but until 2032. It’s not known if he’s banned from Oscar nomination or wins again, but if he were to win another Oscar during that period, he would have to send a representative to accept the award for him.
@@nicholetheotter1957 He may not be banned from life, but his career will never be the same. People will probably be walking around eggshells around him now and in the near future.
Oh boy, this should be something
TOP 10 Worst Budget cuts
The Source Awards was more entertaining than any award show today.
You guys should do an updated video of people who were nominated for an Oscar for one of their best performances but lost out and plx do Andrew Garfield for Tick Tick Boom
Watchmojo, I agree with you on Casey Affleck's win. Even if he was great, if he was going through sexual abuse allegations at the time, why was he even nominated? No offense to him, because I still respect him as an actor, and I'm a little ticked that my man Andrew Garfield lost Best Actor to him.
Allegations dont mean guilt
@@thenewjord50 That is true, but even then there are supposed to be limits. Even though the expression is innocent until proven guilty, there still must be a line.
@@matthewescudero4287 let's keep the same energy if a woman do this to a young boy or girl especially female teachers
Because he gave a great perfomance and probably the best performance by a male actor of the year. Say whatever you want about Affleck's personal life but Manchester By The Sea was one masterpiece of a performance from him and he rightfully deserved the Oscar because of his performance. You just need to seperate the actor's life and their acting career. Pretty sure the Academy members weren't aware of his personal life and just go with his fantastic performance in Manchester
@@Bjork4s I was just trying to say my honest opinion, dude. I think his performance was great, I just think that Garfield was better as Desmond Doss.
Tomei is amazing in MCV, I've never heard that take tbh. Maybe I'm ootl.
Ed Sheeran wins over 4 female artists so OBVIOUSLY that means he didn't deserve to win.
I hate the whole man vs woman society if the roles was reversed it would be an issue you win some you lose some its about talent even if the whole nominees was ultra talented 3 others gonna lose even if all three ultra talented women lose to one ultra talented man
Also, the pop field Grammys regular go to the biggest hit (ie the one most voters are similar with), so Ed winning for literally the 9th biggest song of all time wasn’t surprising, it was literally the safest bet.
The joke would’ve been forgotten but the slsp
Made it last forever
If Chris knew about Jada’s condition then the joke was in poor taste but the fault falls on Jada for starting the feud to begin with years earlier.
I've watched her video.
It's a tiny strip across the top of her head.
TINY.
I've seen it.
She's a nightmare.
honorable mentions:
Lionel Messi won 2021 Ballon d'Or over Robert Lewandowski
Herbie Hancock won 2008 Grammy's Album Of The Year over Kanye West and Amy Winehouse
Green Book won 2019 Oscars Best Picture over Bohemian Rhapsody and Roma
The actresses nominated with Marisa Tomei, I have no clue who they are, not by their names alone anyways
What about when Kanya West tried taking Taylor Swift's award and give it to Beyonce 🤣
@Adham Smith (ninercards81) I am genuinely surprised that this moment didn't make the list. I am not a fan of either Taylor Swift or Kanye West, but what Kanye West did is inexcusable. I mean, how in the name of heck did he think he would get away with this?
@@andrewm3612 I feel the same way and am not a fan of either one also.
People have no idea how difficult it must have been to film the Buffalo Hunt scene in Dances with Wolves!! People just hate on Westerns.
I thought you'll mention the controversial of Fan Favorite Movie of 2021 and most cheered moment at the oscar
Those are fan voted awards so they dont matter 😂
Watchmojo is going to milk this for all it’s worth
Of all the Oscar winners on this list here’s who I think should have won for the categorys listed:
18. Film Editing Winner: Bohemian Rhapsody - John Ottman (Should have won: The Favourite - Yorgos Mavropsaridis)
16. Directing Winner: Kevin Costner - Dances With Wolves (Should have won: Martin Scorsese - Goodfellas)
14. Best Picture Winner: How Green Was My Valley (Should have won : Citizen Kane)
11. Best Supporting Actress Winner: Marisa Tomei - My Cousin Vinney (Should have won: Vanessa Redgrave - Howard’s End)
8. Best Picture Winner: Shakespeare in Love (Should have won: Saving Private Ryan)
6. Best Picture Winner: Crash (Should have won: Brokeback Mountain)
5. Best Actor Winner: Will Smith - King Richard (Should have won: Andrew Garfield - Tick Tick Boom!)
3. Best Actor Winner: Casey Affleck - Manchester by the Sea (Should have won: Denzel Washington - Fences)
1. Directing Winner: Roman Polanski - The Pianist (Should have won: Roman Polanski since I did enjoy this movie)
Talk about the slap all you want, still doesn't take away the fact that the entertainment industry had once again disrespected animation.
The Grammys treats hip-hop like Will Smith treats Chris Rock.
Besides the Macklemore-Kendrick controversy, only a few hip-hop albums won Album of the Year.
Be honest, guys, is Taylor Swift's 1989 better than Kendrick's To Pimp A Butterfly?
And most recent, Better Call Saul in the Emmy. Because succession wins.
(Better Call Saul loose best supports actress, best actor and best drama series)
Friend, you are looking for happiness.Don't be discouraged!!!I'm from Brazil
i can understand someone going through chemo and being offended by Chris' joke (although it wasn't offensive or derogatory in the slightest), but alopecia is like a joke itself. and for Will to walk to the stage, knowing full well what he was about to do, planning and thinking about it approaching Chris, there's no excuse in that. it wasn't spur of the moment or instinct, it was calculated and done with ill-intent. no apology ever will make up for the sheer stupidity and pride of his actions. "easier to ask forgiveness than permission" my ass.
I stopped watching awards shows when Michael Fassbender's courageous, raw performance in Shame lost the Oscar. And the winner is, me....I've never looked back.
Good 👍 choice
I can’t wait for the day; whenever that’ll be; that this Will Smith slap nonsense will die down
💯💯💯💯
Give it a few more weeks....
or another world event happens.
Dang, WM going all in on the Hitch Slap.
My opinions (I respect those who disagree with me):
Game Of Thrones Last Season winning Best Drama Series is really bad, Smell's Like Teen Spirit is better than Layla, Queen's biopic movie winning Best Editing is crap, Jeff Daniels and Kevin Costner was alright, Kesha's song is better than Shape of You, Citizen Kane is King of Cinema, Eminem should have won, Modern Family is overrated, Marisa Tomei is very controversial win, Louis C.K. don't care that much, Kendrick Lamar should have won, Saving Private Ryan is the true winner, Metallica is the true winner of the Metal Category, Brokeback Mountain aged well like fine wine, Will Smith is ok until the slap heard around the world, Beyonce should have won, Andrew Garfield's Hacksaw Ridge is better, I feel bad for Milli Vanilli, and last, but not least, the movie is great, but the director is a monster.
These are hardly controversies “This won, but a lot of mateys said something else should’ve won” ❤️❤️💚big fucking deal! That happens with any award for anything!
I'm sorry but Marisa tomei's Oscar win controversy is absurd, she 100% deserved it and she had no one in the category who was so obviously better then her, i think it's great that the academy acknowledged her amazing comedic performance
You guys are really milking the Oscar slap
Cringe asf
Will Smith caused WM to get new content.
Wow! No mentions of any controversial winners from any of the Tony Award ceremonies unless you count Wicked losing Best Musical to Avenue Q or Grease losing to Two Gentlemen of Verona.
Another one is West Side Story somehow losing Best Musical to The Music Man. They’re both classics sure, but West Side Story has a much bigger impact to musical theater more than The Music Man. They both have movies, but West Side Story has 2 movies while Music Man has 1.
Oh come on, Will Smith is the most famous human on the planet just because of a slap.
y'all are dragging this will smith & chris rock showdown, wm. anyways, will smith rightfully earned that oscar 🌟.
Milli Vanilli are great. I love 'em. Can you say that artists today really sing on their albums with autotune?
The two guys fronting the band didn’t actually sing on the Milli Vanilli album, but somebody did, they should’ve just given the Grammy awards once Milli Vanilli gave them back, to the actual singers on the album because that album spawned a lot of hits and it wasn’t because of the two guys dancing in the video, it was because of the great singing
What about "La La Land" having its MOST deserving Best Picture Oscar taken away from the horrible "Moonlight"? Or ET losing to Gandhi?
Htf don't u guys mention Andrew Garfield getting robbed twice man should've won two Oscars
Jeff Daniels during Newsroom was something different than what people had seen before or expected. It was very well-deserved and earned. But only for the first season lol
@Carlos Escamilla I understand your opinion and I respect it. However, I have one question. Did people see before or expect a performance like Bryan Cranston's in Breaking Bad? I mean, I understand that Jeff Daniels' performance in The Newsroom may have been great, even though I have never seen the show, but Bryan Cranston deserved to win for his phenomenal performance. I mean, Breaking Bad has gone on to become one of the greatest, if not the greatest series of all time, but The Newsroom? I guess it's pretty much forgotten, as I haven't heard of it until watching this video.
@@andrewm3612 I very much respect your perspective, but we're both in the same expectation and were separated by at least four years of when each was originally produced.
@@carlosescamilla5877 Well, I guess you are right. But still, I stand by my point, since it was already argumented quite well in the video.
@@andrewm3612 it's not about who takes the time to see who's right, it's about who's actually correct. You're welcome lol
My god when will the world stop talking about will smith and Chris rock. It’s tired!!
Typical Watchmojo. How many more lists are you guys going to come up with just to have an excuse to show the Will Smith slap?
The Grammy's reputation was tanked long before 2000. Jethro Tull's win is exhibit 1.
If you listen to Jethro Tull music that came before their progressive rock started in earnest with thick as a brick you will see that they actually were hard rocking hard rock/blues rock band
@@michaelrochester48 First, prior music has zilch to do with that award. And there's a reason I remember that award so much. I worked at a college newspaper during that ceremony. When Jethro Tull was announced as the winner, a college student editor watching our tiny set threw the Chicago phone book (it was massive) at the TV. He was soooo pissed Metallica or a similar appropriate group didn't win. That memory has long stuck with me.
I like tull better myself.
@@doctornova3015 As Heavy Metal?
I don't know what criteria those award-people use, but I'd lean on spotify-'views'. in which case, of course, I suspect one would be hard pressed to find a modern song anywhere in those most played.
Will Smith was laughing at Chris Rock's joke about Jada, she rolled her eyes & then he got up, went over & slapped Chris & got all upset. Then it transpires that Will Smith once made a joke about a bald man.
Louis C.K. is an angel, a pure innocent soul who deserves all the success. Why can't he show his member to unwilling women? He's giving them a gift, showing them his lil' clown. Women should be grateful. Louis C.K. is a gift from God.
