And the winner of the 2022 Razzie Redeemer award is...

Will Smith for his role in 'King Richard'

I've never heard of any of these films.

That's The Woman In The Window scratched off my watchlist :lol:

Same here. I don't give a stuff about them or the Oscars.

Yeah, I love Films but it doesn't seem that the biggest Awards Show for it doesn't seem to suit me.

The only Films, I can really root for are West Side Story and King Richard, the rest I haven't seen nor liked (Dune)

I wish there was a hybrid of The Oscars and The MTV Movie Awards where more mainstream Movies are regularly nominated without the public voting system.

Power of the dog won film of the year, I tried watching it couple month back but couldn't get I to I'm not sure why, I'll give it another try at a later date.

It hasn't won. It hasn't even started yet. The Oscars don't begin for another hour and a quarter and go on until 4am

...And the Oscar goes to...

There was also a late addition to the nominations: The Best Impromptu, Improvised, Spur-Of-The-Moment, Not Really Scripted,
"I'm-Not-Acting-This-Is-Genuine", Honest Guv' moment went to Will Smith when he punch host Chris Rock for comments that were made about Smith's wife Jada Pinkett Smith!

So what was that film awards about 2 weeks ago on itv?
Take it that was something different?

Probably the BAFTA awards

'The Power Of The Dog' won best feature at that event

Ah right thanks :)

Yeah the BAFTAs are always a few weeks before the Oscars.

Surprised that Power of the Dog didn’t actually win but Jane Campion at least took best director for the film. I thought it was a great film. I’ve not heard of Coda, I think it’s on Apple TV, I think… I’ll have to check it out.

That was so bad it was untrue. Just seen it on the news this morning. Rock actually puts his chin out as a target then actors do what actors do and act.

Totally staged as you say to boost a pompous awards ceremony that America had become totally bored with in recent years and ratings plummeted. Now it'll be the talk of office water coolers everywhere.

Note the 'altercation' was between two black men therefore nobody could come up with the race card and actually taint the awards ceremony with anything other than 'high drama'.

I don't think it was staged because Chris Rock seemed genuinely surprised.

If there was an arrangement between the two men that there would be a physical assault following a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith's alopecia, Chris Rock could have come back from a commercial break with an 'I got in one little fight and my mom got scared, so now I'm moving to my auntie and uncle's in Bel-Air' joke. That would have been funny.

As for the awards themselves, I haven't seen 95% of the films nominated, though will try to see all the winners and nominees in the next few years.

Surely that's good acting though. It all seemed very WWE to me.

Especially when you consider there's absolutely nothing else to discuss regarding the ceremony. They've gone as inclusive as possible with the best film but ended up giving it to a film nobody has seen nor will want to see. Except your good self.

At least this has everyone talking about the drama of the OSCARS once again even if nobody gives a monkeys about the actual awards. Twitter will be on fire and that's all people care about in 2021.

So someone famous goes over and smacks the presenter on live tv yet not one single person stood up and did anything, Or any security thinking it might spiral out of control, if that was joe bloggs from the public they are all over it, normally anyone even if just security would be having a quiet word in will ear, and someone checking if Chris is ok, but nope no one at all, does that alone not seem odd, even if no one was bothered don't you think it was a bit odd that Chris didn't even put his hand on his face as if to say ow, that's normal reaction to do when someone smacks you.

Very true, gag.

Of all the films up for nomination, I've seen:

• Nightmare Alley (Best Picture nominee)
• West Side Story (Best Picture nominee)
• Encanto (Best Animated Feature winner)
• Luca (Best Animated Feature nominee)
• Raya and the Last Dragon (Best Animated Feature nominee)
• Cruella (Best Costume Design winner and Best Makeup and Hair nominee)
• No Time To Die (Best Sound and Best Visual Effects nominee)
• Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (Best Visual Effects nominee)

I think everyone was a bit taken aback, Chris Rock included

I don't know what security was around, but what could/should they have done when a Best Actor nominee walks from the front row to the stage, up to the presenter, slaps him, and then goes straight back to his seat?

Chris Rock seemed to take the assault in his stride and was more bothered by Will Smith's shouted demand not to talk about his wife than the physical confrontation.

The fact that he felt comfortable saying what he did and Smith wasn't concerned about any comeback from smacking someone in the face in front of a large audience and on live TV shows how privileged they are and feel.

Like you say, if a member of the public had walked up and smacked the presenter in the face, they would have been arrested.

I do not think it was staged either,If you look at Jada's face when Chris makes the joke you can see she is not a happy woman after the joke and Will make his move on Chris also would the broadcaster allow so much swearing even though it was bleeped out?

The use of expletives is what makes it authentic to me. The Oscars ceremony is a prestigious event broadcast to millions of homes and rated TV-PG. Even with the delay for networks to moderate the content, for an A-list to drop the 'F bomb' twice – not accidentally, but intentionally and with anger – would be considered a big deal.

Do you recall the MTV Awards when Sacha Baron Cohen as Bruno descended on wings and landed on top of Eminem whilst he was performing and stormed off the stage in a hail of expletives?

It was all supposedly real until it finally came out that both stars had performed it.

To me last night was a similar stunt.

If it was a stunt, why do it when the show is almost over and there's only a few awards to give out?

Also, say the Academy approached Will Smith and Chris Rock, saying "Chris, we want you to make a joke at Jada Pinkett Smith's appearance and we want Will to walk onto the stage, smack you round the face, and then yell at you. Will will have to apologise during the ceremony and then again on social media."

I can't see that Will Smith gains anything from this. Chris Rock possibly has a bit of material, but knows he should be wary about making jokes about people's wives again. If both men don't want to do it, what could the Academy possibly offer them to make it an attractive proposal?

Attractive proposition you say? Well one of them could be guaranteed a shiny gold statue whilst the other paid a handsome bonus on top of their pay check for hosting.

This has become boring really quickly. However i'll close with this pic of two very angry looking men who have just had a punch up on stage.

Do you think the Oscars are fixed? Will Smith won a BAFTA, Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild, and Critics' Choice award for his portrayal of Richard Williams. He was the betting favourite because it was clear the industry had recognised he gave the best performance by an actor in a leading role.

People are now saying he should be stripped of his Oscar, which is ludicrous considering nothing like that was done to Harvey Weinstein or Kevin Spacey.

Well let's say this. Some of the choices of best film winners have been rather strange when you've seen what they have been up against. So has the thinking behind quite a few acting Oscars over the years. For example giving long serving actors an Oscar for lesser roles which are seen as more for a body of work than the actual film in question. Al Pacino and John Wayne instantly spring to mind.

So yes, i do think they aren't quite as legit as made out.

And i agree, Smith should not be stripped of his Oscar, that's just nonsense.

As you said, I also think there are occasions when Academy members have voted for an actor or director to receive an award as a way of compensating them for missing out in the past.

Martin Scorsese wasn't really the best director for The Departed, but some would say he was overdue winning that award because of missing out for films like Raging Bull, Goodfellas, and The Aviator.

Similarly, Frances McDormand lost out on Oscars for Mississippi Burning and Almost Famous, but was successful for her powerful performance in Three Billboards, a fine piece of acting, but probably not as good as the films where she missed out.

Al Pacino missing out on the best supporting actor in The Godfather, best actor for Serpico, The Godfather Part II, and Dog Day Afternoon, but winning for Scent of a Woman is crackers.

In any case, we're discussing an organisation that thought Driving Miss Daisy was a better film than My Left Foot and Born on the Fourth of July and John Ottman's editing of Bohemian Rhapsody was laudable, so some decisions need to be taken with a large pinch of salt! :lol:

All this internal Oscar academy politics aside. The actual punch/slap whatever it was just looks fake. It looks like dodgy stuntwork.

I think it looked fake too.
Maybe it was a way of preventing anyone poking fun at the luvvies in future - oh no, you never know what they might do :rolleyes:
I think it was a stunt that backfired, hence Will Smith making his ‘ we’ve got such a stressful job’ speech. Pathetic.

I can understand anyone wanting to smack Chris Rock mind. He irritates the heck out of me.

I was happy that Summer Of Soul got something as it should mean more folk will watch it now.

As for Hypocritewood?
Meh.

Pfizer Announces Positive Top-Line Results from Phase 2b/3 Trial of Ritlecitinib in Alopecia Areata / Pfizer

And there it is. Case closed!

Anyone remember John Martin's classic book about the video nasties entitled The Seduction of the Gullible?

I believe he's writing a follow up.

This video in which a body language analyst breaks down what happened, from the different reactions to Chris Rock's joke to the slap, and Will Smith's acceptance speech, is interesting.

I thought the analysis of the body movements and the different emotions were very believable.
