THE OSCARS INCIDENT

  • Vinnie's favorite movie of the year was "King Richard."
  • He doesn't watch the Oscars, but he's seen clips and memes of the incident between Will Smith and Chris Rock.
  • It is in part so crazy because Will Smith is such a prolific actor.
  • This violent response makes you wonder -- what is going on with him, and what happened to decorum?
    • There's also concern about precedent -- comedians often cross lines and we can't try to censor them.
      • There were infinitely better ways Will Smith could have handled this.
  • His acceptance speech also seemed pretty crazy.
    • "Love makes you do crazy things" is no excuse for violence. Ever.
      • And while his apologies were a step in the right direction, he did not apologize to Chris Rock.
  • That said, this was a bad joke.
  • But these people are role models, and Will Smith must do better.
