Offside (General Discussion)

Elizabeth Mendoza said:He’s not some troll; he just loves sharing his Smith opinions, especially with reporters at movie premieres. This isn't even his first rodeo. Rock has been poking fun at his wife since back in 2015. He was also out there making noise about the Oscar boycott because there weren't enough Black nominees.

The older they get, the more airheaded they become. That whole family is straight-up creepy—kind of like the Kardashians, but on a whole different level of weird. 🤣

If he had just walked up to the stage, taken the award, and admitted he snapped and acted without thinking—apologizing to everyone so this incident wouldn't ruin the ceremony—that might have shown some actual humanity. Instead, he spends five minutes giving a speech about how God gave him a role as a protector and how he carries love within him. It feels like the guy has lost it. When people ask why legends like Heath Ledger or Robin Williams struggled, or how Jim Carrey almost hit a breaking point, maybe we should realize that among all these millionaires, there are unstable and troubled people just like anywhere else.

Total fake. And honestly, the only thing more fraudulent than Smith and this whole rock scene is whatever other garbage they call rock music... just pure stupidity, if you ask me, like Cameron would say

Of course some people have to be total idiots and start spinning conspiracy theories about everything being rigged. 🤣

I mean, you can clearly see he didn't get a "punch to the head"—it was more like this weird little slap, obviously a rehearsed move from all those training videos... 🤷

By the way, is this forum running incredibly slow for everyone else lately, or is it just my connection acting up? I guess it feels like everything is crawling at a snail's pace these days... maybe it's just me.🙏

What kind of depraved mind could possibly believe that Hollywood stars have been faked...

In my estimation, the guy threw out a provocation, took a slap in the face, and that was that. I can't help but wonder what the real difference is between this and two guys getting into a scrap at a local dive bar after too many beers. The only distinction is that these people are sipping expensive Chardonnay with full bank accounts, whereas our local types are drinking cheap domestic beer with empty pockets.

It seems that because people possess wealth and fame, we feel compelled to turn them into freaks.

It’s always been like this, hasn't it? 🤣

Look, if this person is actually suffering from an illness—which I truly hope isn't the case—then the joke is just plain tasteless. In my opinion—and I mean this sincerely—it shouldn't be a slap on the wrist, but a direct punch to the face.

So, it’s definitely not just my slow internet then.

People honestly believe this whole thing is rigged. 🤣

I'm not entirely sure—some folks seem to think Oscar should have gone back to Denzel instead of Klempi—but that's just what I've heard

Well, I suppose... maybe even slower than usual 🤣

Yeah, I noticed things were running a little sluggishly on the mobile app over the weekend. It seems like everything might be back to normal today, though.

If this had occurred on March 28, 1995, rather than March 28, 2022, wouldn't I be absolutely certain that it wasn't some elaborate fabrication? In today's distorted landscape of social media echo chambers and the superficiality of Hollywood, where everything feels staged, isn't it actually quite tempting to consider the possibility that this entire situation is nothing more than a sophisticated hoax?

Thank goodness one bad actor simply took down another; surely this won't remain a headline for very long.

His wife has this show where she gets all personal about their private life. There’s this one episode where she’s sitting there with her daughter and her mother. The daughter comes out as gay right there on camera, and then Smith’s wife casually mentions she’s into women too. Suddenly, the grandma bursts in and starts asking for a threesome! 🤣 Honestly, it’s enough to drive anyone insane. His wife is constantly flirting with young guys, his son is gay, his daughter is a lesbian, his daughter-in-law is a total sex addict, and his wife is an addict herself—she even talked about her issues with drugs and booze on the show 🤣. She even goes as far as sharing stories about being high while hanging out with her own son. 🤣

He just wanders around doing these interviews, acting like everything is perfectly fine, even when he was sitting there on Oprah's couch.

What a freaky family.

Honestly, Will Smith would’ve been living his absolute best life right now if he’d just walked away from his wife ages ago. If he had actually made that move twenty years back, instead of dragging it out, he’d still be out there dropping massive, top-tier blockbusters.

Great debate to kick off a boring Monday. Is that slap between two Hollywood A-listers actually real or just some scripted nonsense?

Honestly, who even cares?

I guess the real issue isn't just about the money itself. It's more that while guys like Anthony Wright30 and Joseph Clark37 just hang out at the local pub, this pretentious guy actually tried to spin it for the whole world to see. He basically tried to tie his role in that movie back to some divine mission, acting like he was chosen by God for the part. To me, that’s where the real problem lies, rather than just the payout.

I guess Henry makes a pretty good point—if you really started digging beneath the surface, you might find enough material for an entire library of horror movies.

Bring some actual substance to the table for once.🙂

At least we aren't spending this morning reading about local folklore🙏 , thank God nobody’s asking for a live briefing from a Pentagon analyst yet🙏.

The only sane one in the bunch is the oldest son.

This is basically the textbook definition of "don't fuck crazy."

Let's talk about the Dodgers or maybe the Yankees instead.

I wouldn't have even known the first group existed if they hadn't been mentioned here, and as for the second, we have an entire sub-forum dedicated to them anyway, so you'll end up talking about them regardless.

Drop a thread.🍿
