Damn it, ofcourse the 2 British teams that could qualify go into Englands group. Iran and USA in the same group..Gulp. I remember them being drawn together in a World Cup around the turn of the century and there was a lot of coverage about it. Iran won too IIRC.

In no way shape or form did DiBiase is Good present his opinion as proof or justification that Jada Pinkett Smith is "a bad person." I too get that impression from her, and a discussion can be had about that without the thread exploding, whatever that means. I mean, even if it can... should it? I am struggling to think of what productive or useful end would be served by having a discussion about Jada's character in the context of this thread. Her entire role in this incident was "a joke was made about my hair loss, I changed facial expression". Because people were already making comments about why she is so disliked. I canât stop people doing that if they want (unless itâs the OTT comments about the sexual allegations). I was trying to make the point that itâs fine to dislike a person but not do as some have (not here, Iâm talking about stuff Iâve seen elsewhere) and make out that itâs anything to do with this whole incident.

Iâve always had this belief that Jada Pinkett Smith has a slightly over-inflated opinion of herself. Like she thinks sheâs Hollywood royalty when sheâs not really done anything of enough note to warrant that position. The whole âopen marriageâ thing doesnât bother me one bit, if both parties agree to it, then thatâs their business. But that doesnât mean Iâm going to try and say sheâs to blame for this whole thing. This "vague sense a celebrity thinks things that mean they're a bad person, but I can't really point to anything in particular" deal is... certainly a phenomenon that exists. I'm worried the thread would explode if we dug into it, though. (certainly doing the opposite of singling this person out, because they do the right thing and keep it from affecting their conclusions about unrelated things) I was merely commenting on the previous few posts about people not liking her and said why Iâm not joining her fan club anytime soon. It was trying to make the point that you can have a pre-judged opinion of someone, yet not use that to try and assign blame. Iâd already said in the thread that I wasnât a fan of hers but that post wasnât an appropriate one to explain the reasons why, as it was a post asking to stop the comments about the sexual allegations.

Do you have to have a license to watch tv in the UK? only for BBC channels (and iPlayer by extension), because those are funded directly by the license fee and will never air adverts or product placement. it's perfectly legal to not pay it and just avoid those channels. I know a lot of people like to give the BBC a lot of shit (and there have been times when theyâre absolutely justified to do so) but I still think ÂŁ160 a year is a bargain for what you get. And thatâs just for TV. The Attenborough documentaries alone are worth the cost!

Donât call it the UK version of The Office! Itâs The Office. Every other version should clarify thatâs itâs a version of it, but the original shouldnât. When it's an American outlet, and it is, you do need to say that because the American version is far more well-known there. The same thing would apply if it was a UK outlet referring to the original of a show adapted in the UK. It doesnât really bother me if itâs the best-known, I always think the original of something has the right to go by that name and every other version should amend their name appropriately. The Office was called that when it aired in the US and developed a cult following and became well-known thanks to the Golden Globe wins, so even if the US version is more well-known, the UK original wasnât exactly obscure. Quite often, when remaking a show from another country, the UK will change the name of the show to differentiate between the two anyway. Like when someone thought it was a good idea to do a British version of The Golden Girls, they changed the name completely to Brighton Belles. Of course, the name change made no difference to the fact that even comparing it to the original is a massive insult to it. Thankfully, other than nabbing talent shows from elsewhere, we tend not to remake many foreign shows as more often than not, the British versions are shit.

It's always nice to see a different name in the World Cup. Well done Canada. and unless I'm mistaken they are also guaranteed to be in the next one in 4 years time as they are co hosting with USA and Mexico. Do kinda wish we would see some different Asian Teams Qualify.. Granted we got Qatar but that's just because they are hosting it. Itâs not guaranteed as thereâs been no official decision on whether to give all three countries a guaranteed spot. Chances are theyâll all get a spot and the fact that there will be 48 teams instead of 32 from that tournament on increases the likelihood of it. But as of right now, no team has qualified.

I would say this takes the shine off âFlash entering the speed forceâ winning the most cheer-worthy moment last night. But there was no shine on that to begin with.

There wasnât an open marriage joke. The joke immediately before was about Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz both being nominated and that if Bardem won and Penelope Cruz lost, he wouldnât be able to celebrate his win as it would hurt her feelings, Thatâs why Bardem would be praying for Will Smith to win Best Actor and stop Bardem winning it. Nothing in there about an open marriage. đłđł well Iâve f***ed out there. How dare you quote me. KEEP MY QUOTEâS WORDS OUT OF YOUR F***ING POST,

Well that was something wasnât it ? Iâve rewatched the incident and people saying will smith was laughing, I think he was laughing at the open marriage one, not the GI Jane one and no I donât think will smith shouldâve done what he did, and while not everybody wouldâve known about Jada Pinkett smith's condition Chris rock and many in that audience wouldâve known. And it seems some on twitter are saying that because of his actions last night, that will smith has exposed himself as a domestic abuser which I donât really see how that shows he is. There wasnât an open marriage joke. The joke immediately before was about Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz both being nominated and that if Bardem won and Penelope Cruz lost, he wouldnât be able to celebrate his win as it would hurt her feelings, Thatâs why Bardem would be praying for Will Smith to win Best Actor and stop Bardem winning it.

"Keep my wifes name out your mouth" be more worried about the other men in hers, Will! Can we not please. Iâm no fan of Jada Pinkett-Smith but sheâs not really at fault in this situation and the fact that they apparently have an open relationship isnât really relevant to the incident.

It was a thousand percent scripted. The Oscarsâ ratings have been tanking for a decade. Absolutely no one cared about the Oscars tonight and the ratings will reflect that. But now itâs automatic water cooler conversation and trending worldwide on social media. Will Smith gets to play the role of the husband proudly standing up for his wife as sheâs belittled on national television. Chris Rock gets to play the role of comedian who got assaulted for just telling a joke. And, to really get into the weeds of it, Chris Rock leaned into the slap on stage, and the camera immediately cut to Will Smith as he was shouting back at Chris Rock. If this were truly some dramatic, unscripted moment that shamed the integrity of the Oscars, they wouldnât have cut right to him as he was swearing at Rock. Itâs absolutely, positively scripted. I wholeheartedly disagree.

It's poppin. The most talked about thing from the Oscars in such a long time. But there was similar talk about the whole La La Land/Moonlight debacle a few years back and they did jack shit for the ratings as a year later, people had already stopped caring. Granted, this was obviously more dramatic but in a years time will many American people think âI must watch a three and half hour broadcast this year in case something big happens which wonât be shown in full anyway due to it going off the air almost immediatelyâ?

And if it was a work, then it was a bad one, because all it did was make people on uncomfortable. You donât want a publicity stunt to make people feel terrible at an event thatâs supposed to be fun and a celebration. You could sense the uncomfortable nature in the building for the rest of the broadcast and completely over-shadowed any award that followed, particularly the award Chris Rock was there to host.
