The story of巴掌随着学院的努力，他继续做任何事情，克里斯·洛克（Chris Rock）在剧院巡回赛上工作，在威尔伯（Wilburgreeted with a standing ovationand some guy trying to start a “F-ck Will Smith” chant. (Rock’s ticket sales have飞涨因为周日晚上)。岩石说他仍然是“processing” the incident and may speak about it later but he seems to be doing OK and his show is doing better than ever.

But wait, there’s more! Because The Slap has dominated so much of The Discourse this week, we’ve lost sight of another tasteless thing Rock said on Sunday night when he announced the winners of Best Documentary Feature. Rock announced the winners as, “Ahmir ‘Questlove’ Thompson and four white guys,” except one, three producers joined Questlove on stage, not four, and THEY WEREN’T ALL WHITE. Rock’s ad lib marginalizes producer Joseph Monish Patel, who is of South Asian descent.

In a Twitter thread yesterday (that has since been deleted because you can imagine the ugliness that he ended up receiving) Patel elaborated on this thoughts –每种品种:

“The reason that makes me SO SO VERY ANGRY is because I was so proud to be one of a handful of South Asians to have ever won an Oscar in the history of the award,” Patel wrote in a Twitter thread airing his frustrations on Wednesday evening. “I was ecstatic that I was the 3RD South Asian to win that night – after Riz [Ahmed] and Aneil Karia won earlier in the night for [best live action short winner] ‘The Long Goodbye.’ Three South Asians winning on the same night – that’s never happened before! And it’s meaningful! It’s history!”

“I got back home to New York last night and saw the ceremony on my DVR and didn’t have the stomach to watch it,” Patel continues. “I probably never will. Thank you, Chris – You absolute f-cking dick.”

帕特尔写道：“我认为会做的是自私的。”“它抢走了它的时刻。它抢劫了他们时刻的其他出色而令人惊叹的电影，在很棒的一年中，这是他们的时刻。它抢劫了夏天的灵魂和我们的团队。一部著名电影的大声，热情的欢呼。”

“I never need a statue to tell me how nice I am – but it sure helps. And what both Will AND Chris did really stained what should have been a beautiful moment for us,” Patel’s thread concludes. “Also it goes without saying I speak for me and me alone. Not Ahmir [Questlove] and not our coproducers.”

再次，克里斯·洛克（Chris Rock）不应该被打耳光，威尔·史密斯（Will Smith）拍打他是错误的。但这也不是因为他在史密斯击中了他之后就参加了演出，这并不能使他成为小时的英雄。

至于学院，他们直到4月18日才决定采取行动。他们遵循章程和为史密斯的15天“投票通知”，但这太长了。那太久了。有时，情况实际上是相当可怕的，需要快速的反应，然后才能进一步失控，但是在这一点上，就像学院是消防员，通过让建筑物完全燃烧的燃烧来击败火灾。这就是为什么我不太相信他们关于他们在周日晚上的反应方式的不断发展的故事的原因。首先，这是“边界不可能”为了在周日晚上的现场做出决定，但随后学院首席执行官黎明·哈德森（Dawn Hudson）和总统戴维·鲁宾（David Rubin）在后台遇到有了学院的发言人和史密斯的宣传员，但这并没有采取任何行动。现在，故事是他们要求史密斯离开，但他拒绝了，所有的crunchberries都糟糕，演出继续进行。

One element of this rather fluid accounting of events that tracks is Smith’s publicist being involved at some point, as she was spotted talking to Smith during a commercial break.

I just don’t know if I believe they actually asked Smith to leave. Because if you DID make that decision, why wouldn’t you carry it out? The Oscars are CRAWLING with security. It’s not like it would have been difficult to arrange to escort Smith from the theater (off camera), unless you’re so totally craven the thought of upsetting a movie star is paralyzing. This entire story would have unfolded differently if we weren’t left with the image of Smith, an hour after hitting Chris Rock on stage, collecting an Oscar to thunderous applause. It’s that juxtaposition that’s at the heart of a lot of the ongoing strife, and it’s the reason the Academy is probably going to wildly overreact now—or rather, on April 18—because no matter how they say it went down in the moment, at the end of the night they did nothing, and the Oscars carried on like normal except for how everyone was still reeling from what happened.

I fully believe the time for the Academy to act was then, in the moments after everyone realized Rock and Smith weren’t doing a bit. That’s why I’ve said they should have cut the feed, to buy themselves the time to organize their response, because there needed to be a responsein the moment. But now? Chris Rock has declined to press charges. And the furor around Smith continues to have种族色彩and some people are WAY too excited to see the downfall of a beloved Black icon. Every day the Academy waits to react, is another day that furor builds, and their response starts being measured not against the events that actually occurred, but the public clamouring for “justice”.

桌子上最有可能的结果和最有衡量的选择是史密斯在学院的成员资格的某种暂停。传统上，他将被邀请到2023年的奥斯卡颁奖典礼上介绍最佳女演员，也许他将被禁止这一机会。也许他也将被禁止在明年的任何与学院有关的活动中。也许他必须支付某种罚款，或者被要求捐赠给演员家庭协助生活设施，以支持退休演员。我认为他们不会夺回他的奥斯卡奖，因为他们从未收回任何人的奥斯卡奖 - 除了1969年的SNAFU之外，一部无符合资格的电影赢得了最佳纪录片，甚至没有哈维·温斯坦（Harvey Weinstein），而且他是一名被定罪的强奸犯。

该学院在关于未决的纪律处分的声明中向克里斯·洛克（Chris Rock）以及奥斯卡奖的观众，客人和提名人道歉。迄今为止，没有人向贾达·平克特·史密斯（Jada Pinkett Smith）道歉。
