Daaaaaamn! That was much harsher than I was expecting! I was thinking between a 3-5 year ban. That's 2 years for every finger that touched Chris Rock's face!
But heres the thing, if this ban doesnt include being considered for Oscar nomination, then its really a slap on the wrist. I'm sure Will doesnt give two ***** about not being able to attend the ceremony. As long as he can still be nominated and potentially win, thats all that matters.I am surprised they actually did something.
I have imposed a self-ban on the Academy Awards for the last twenty or so years.Will Smith barred from Academy events for 10 years, including the Oscars!

Why is that all that matters? I feel like shame matters. I feel like his reputation matters. I feel like $ matters. I think he likes being part of the club and treated like royalty.
Who wants to put Will Smith in an Oscar worthy movie, now, anyway? He wasn't really that guy to begin with, besides a couple instances.

Hitch and some of the Bad Boys movies have been on all weekend. Normally I would might turn on one of those just to have it on in the background because they are entertaining and easy to watch, . This weekend though I just didn’t feel like. I’m not anti- Will Smith or pro-boycotting movies or boycotting pretty much anything, but this whole thing has gotten so insane I’m just tired of hearing about it to the point where it’s impacting what show I watch bc I guess I have Will Smith fatigue. I’m wondering if others might feel the same?
Never cared for most of his movies. Enemy of the State and the 1st Men in Black are good.
Independence Day is horrible
