TheHappySpaceman Reviews - Annie
A disheartened Spaceman tries to sit through the 2014 Annie remake.
The timing of this video is a little wonky. I wrote the script in early December and recorded the video footage in mid-December, but I wasn’t able to release it until after Christmas. Sorry about this, guys!
White people and other people of no color who are turning the Will Smith Oscar incident into a heinous grievance are telling on themselves.
Mia Farrow, Rosie O’Donnell, Maria Shriver, and Judd Appatow just to name a few. Your prejudice is showing.
People fight. It happens. Verbally, physically, mentally. If both parties identify that they’ve accepted the outcome and neither are gravely injured, what is there to complain about further? Chris Rock has already stated he is not pressing charges. The slap didn’t even seem to connect, and if so, not severely.
You have some who are calling for him to be in prison over this 2-3 second non-lethal, noninjurious slap??? (Hayden Panitierre just had a brawl over the weekend and she nor her boyfriend are in prison nor were there demands for them to be so.) Will Smith, having never been convicted of any crime or never had any criminal history, should be in prison over a tiff?
Let me remind you Roman Polanski and Woody Allen have won Oscars in recent years.
The only criticism I have for Will is that he should have waited for them to be in private and not on camera.
I have 0 issue with a man defending his wife, especially when she is a black woman. Too many ppl are excusing and accepting of verbal harassment and abuse of black women, so much so that it is the norm. It’s not even recognized when it’s happening because people have accepted it as appropriate and okay. It’s not. Never has been and never will be.
Come live with me, and be my love,
And we will some new pleasures prove
Of golden sands, and crystal brooks,
With silken lines, and silver hooks

i know DAMN WELL the same kind of white people who like to make jokes about black husbands and fathers not being around are talking about charging will smith for ASSAULT because he bitch slapped a man for talking shit about his wife.
Putting aside the blatant ableism, you don't talk about a black woman's hair. thats it. the end. sorry babes.
Let me repeat. A BLACK MAN. WITH A SHAVED HEAD. IS NOT. TO TALK. ABOUT A BLACK WOMAN'S HAIR.
ESPECIALLY in front of a crowd of white people. A crowd of well-renowned, famous, rich white people. Jada is stronger than me because if I were in her position I would have started sobbing.
and, his bitchass documentary about how black women shouldn't wear weaves stayed pissing me off.
Misogynoir and ableism are shit the academy was built on. Just like everything else. So OF COURSE Chris Rock felt safe making that sort of joke. So Will did what he should have. Someone should never feel safe punching down on your partner in your presence. Period. If someone made fun of my boyfriend's health issues, after I've watched him struggle with them, I wouldn't just bitch-slap them, I'd pick up a chair and knock their ass clean the fuck out.
Will Smith is married to that woman. Entanglement or not. Fame or not. Oscars be damned, that's his wife. The mother of his children. And the only person other than a WOC who can even slightly understand what she felt in that moment is the person who watched her suffer through Hollywood and Alopecia and did waver.
I found a LOT more respect for Will Smith tonight.

I forgot how much I loved this song
Willow Smith reunites her mom Jada’s rock band, Wicked Wisdom, as a Mother’s Day gift! 💁🏾♀️🎸🤟🏿
what the actual fuck is wrong with chris rock. you know damn well that black women are sensitive about their damn hair. i’m so damn sick of black men thinking its ok to clown black women for entertainment.
i’m glad will knocked his ass the fuck out.
Honestly, I support Will Smith smacking the shit out of Chris Rock for making fun of Jada’s baldness. Aside the fact that it’s a result of a medical condition, and therefore in extremely poor taste, it’s beyond time to stop making jokes about women’s bodies, period.
And at a public event like this, you’re expected to just sit there and laugh quietly so you appear to be in on the joke and cool and not taking yourself too seriously. Because god forbid a woman demand to be treated with respect.
And Chris’s attempt to defend himself by making it to be a harmless little joke that it would be ridiculous to be bothered by… fuck him. Don’t make digs or jokes or mean-spirited comments about women’s bodies. It’s not okay, and we’re justified when we get upset about it, and trying to play it off as no big deal is a bullshit power move men use to keep us down.
Like damn I was tired of Will after all his interviews this year, but that genuinely raised him in my estimation. Direct action.
Idc, if someone was making fun of MY wife’s chronic disorder that she is supposedly very sensitive about in front of thousands of people, I’d get on stage and smack the shit out of him too
Red Table Talk
Will Smith: “You know why I never got a divorce?”
Jada: “It’s cheaper to keep me.”
[everyone laughs]
Will: “‘Cause I’ve never met anybody like you, and I knew if I wasn’t with you, I’d be searching in vain for the rest of my life.”
The pearl clutchers of Twitter are on Team Chris Rock should press assault charges against Will Smith and involve his LAWYERS, meanwhile the gremlin violence craving rats of Tumblr are like HIT HIM AGAIN.
I love it here.
I actually think there should be more street justice at the Academy Awards, keeps you humble
