Los 94 Premios de la Academia

The Oscars was a staple of the best of the year. Chris Rock is one of the funniest comedians out there. Will Smith had NO RIGHT TO GET UP OUT OF HIS SEAT GO TO CHRIS AND SLAP HIM AND THEN CUSS HIM OUT!! Lupita Nyong'o didn't even do anything about it and she was sitting next to Will. Congrats to Coda but after that incident, I think I'm done with the Oscars.

I am old enough to remember when The Oscars were all just about movies and rewarding the best in cinematic achievements from the year prior, not trying to preach politics, tell bland and rather cringe inducing jokes that anybody could write or say without seeing a dime for it, and certainly not display the kind of unprofessionalism that your Will Smith did live in front of millions of viewers by getting up on stage and slapping Chris Rock just for a joke. The two new categories, fan favorite and best moment or something along those lines, feel like something you would expect from the MTV Movie & TV Awards, but not the Academy Awards, and neither were even very well thought out either. Probably the only highlight of the program was Kevin Costner's speech before awarding Best Director, if only the rest of the program was like that, at least Sir Kenneth Branagh and Sir Anthony Hopkins also understood the mission and tried to keep things short and professional.

Has there been a show that's been so shallow, awful, and boring that the only noteworthy thing was when Will Smith slapped Chris Rock and cussed him out for mentioning his wife? That's right.

Everything about this show was a disaster. From the planning, from the meddling, from the awful writing, and the slap which I'm sure was not work or scripted in any ways.

The worst bit about the writing is when they called animated movies "Kiddy" and "Movies that only children should watch". This is not only an insult to any animator, animation company, or animation fan, but it's just stereotyping animation as a kid's medium... when it's not. There are animated movies made for adults as well, which I guess the writers never knew about. If this was satire, then it's not funny.

Overall, I don't think the Oscars will EVER improve after what happened here, and it's sad when a slap is more noteworthy than the rest of the SHOW. So much for it being "The greatest night in the history of television!"

Well, the bullies whined their way inthi They got what they wanted. The show is completely trashed. Dressing up doesn't give you class.

Thank goodness the deaf, who have overcome so much in life, don't assault each other.

What made this even more upsetting is that I used to admire the participants involved. Will Smith us an excellent actor. How many performers can go from a sitcom to top notch dramatic performances? Chris Rock is great - or used to be. He was not only funny but has displayed brilliance and a unique perspective to share with others. They are way above ths!

#Oscars so ghetto.

The Oscars suck nowadays. There's not much excitement or thrill on who is going to win or be nominated anymore. Honestly, when Will Smith hitting Chris Rock is considered the highlight of this year's ceremony, it just goes to show how mediocre and superficial it really is. You're better off just watching the highlights rather than sitting through the entire thing.

5/10.
