I should have said, Nobody will STAY arrested if the person that got slapped refuses to press charges. It was an open hand slap, NOT a closed fist blow that broke a jaw or nose. It didn't even break the skin. It's unlikely it left a bruise. At worst, it left a red mark for 30 minutes. If...

NOBODY would get arrested for slapping someone if the person that got slapped refused to press charges. Which is exactly what happened. Mark

Will Smith, Chris Rock Incident “Will Take A Few Weeks” To Probe Says Academy In Letter To Members Translation: We hope the situation will blow over within a few weeks so let's hold off on any sort of formal announcement until then. Mark

Tino, We agree about something in this thread! :) CODA is awesome! I was pretty convinced it would be the best film I would see in 2021 at the moment the final credits started rolling. Frankly, I am stunned about the number of people that apparently haven't seen it. If people don't have an...

True, that. Mark

Excellent article, thank you for sharing! Rock deserved what he got and I doubt he has the class needed to apologize. #banchrisrockfromoscars Mark

There is some level of irony when people are outraged about an open-hand slap while discussing it in a forum filled with praise for films (particularly, older films) that collectively contain a history of thousands of open-hand slaps. Comparing this situation to a "roast" is also folly. Ron is...

Yep, and Chris Rock needs to learn to control himself. Mark

Chris Rick deserved that smack in the mouth and thumbs up to Will Smith for having the balls to give it to him on live TV. If Jada had shaved her head for a role, or even shaved her head because she liked the look, then Rock could be excused for the attempt at humor. But it is the horribly...

Called it! :) Mark

'Power of the Dog' is a very good film. Worthy of an award nomination. But it was not remotely as entertaining as 'CODA'. If I pick the film that *I* enjoyed the most, it is rare that my Best Picture pick wins. I suspect this year will be no different. Mark

I have not seen all of the nominees for best picture, but my favorite film of 2021 is still 'CODA'. Therefore, I will be rooting for CODA. Mark
