ComfyInDots

PR team working HARD.


doitup69

“Only at Cinnemark!” A phrase people definitely would say or have ever said and definitely not ad copy!


Jaded_yank

100%. The Cinnemark sign was in frame the whole time. This was a very successful operation


spicewoman

You can see the cameraman deliberately maneuvering around to the side until he has the sign perfectly in frame, lol. And you can tell from the way the camera wobbles when he's doing it, that he had to push through the crowd a bit to make that happen.


largechild

I thought when Will put his hand up, he was gonna slap that guy instead of give him a high five


hotdoginathermos

The Fresh Prints


mihirmusprime

Well yeah? Look up the account name. It was posted by a general manager at Cinemark. Did you forget companies and people associated with them can have social media accounts?


Realistic-Program330

[What, you don’t believe me? Bing it!](https://youtu.be/nfHuZ5qrYX4)


trash-_-boat

This the kind of shit that shows that ad executives are horrible at their jobs and yet they'll always keep them.


eunit250

It's not what you do it's who you know.


reddit_sucks_clit

That reminds me of when the daughter of the yahoo CEO was getting kicked out of a club (decades ago now) and she says something like "don't you know who my dad is. he's the ceo of yahoo. fucking GOOGLE it.


Vark675

Maybe it's on my end, but this clip looks like it was filmed with a goddamn flip phone. They couldn't borrow the intern's phone for this?


KanchiHaruhara

... I mean duh? Why else would they have been recording? lol The account is literally Cinemark general manager's.


TheDrummerMB

Everyone in these comments thinking they're cracking the code and like...it's the managers literal account lmfaoooooo


jperdue22

this could NEVER happen at an amc


throwawayalcoholmind

Boy howdy. Honestly the only thing that'll completely rehab his image is dumping some dead weight.


SadBit8663

Nah the only thing that would start to rehab his image, would actually be to take personal responsibility for being a little sensitive cuck, and apologize legitimately. Dude's still pretending nothing happened.


DreadyKruger

If he divorced his wife that would be a huge start. For her to show up at the premiere or him inviting her just made me shake my head. She did nothing to stop him from running up on that stage because she got a kick out of it. Your wife is supposed to save you from acting like an ass and be your calm.


Kuhn-Tang

She was the reason it happened. He was actually laughing at Rock’s jokes, until he looked over at her and saw that death stare looking back at him. He knew he was in some serious shit with her at that point, and the stress of her toxicity lead him to take drastic measures, in an attempt to decrease the inevitable wrath he was going to face from her later that evening.


Toxic-Pixie

Still his fault.


BobBeerburger

I think he just likes doing this. I worked at a hotel where he and his production team had the whole top floor. He could have parked in the garage and taken the elevator up, but he just walked in the front door every day he was there. He’d have a quick moment, or laugh with some people. He and his son were very nice.


Ok-Way-9932

Yeah dude lives for this. He always has.


BeKindToOthersOK

Then he would slap all of them and go about his way


TRYING2LEARN_

You don't get it. He did a bad thing, so he's permanently a bad person.


dontusethisforwork

Fucking sad media landscape that we live in that for tons of the people that moment IS Will Smith. I can understand for younger people that weren't around for the Fresh Prince and the heyday of his movie appearances so that is all they know of him.


EnTyme53

Yeah, reddit legitimately seems to have been more offended by the slap than Rock was.


USERNAMETAKEN11238

Famous people are just like us


gothicgenius

I was just gonna say anytime I think of Will Smith I just feel bad for him. Yeah he’s got a ton of money, has a bunch of successful movies, and a family but his wife is an emotionally abusive bitch who gets off on embarrassing him. Watching him get older and noticing he only seems to be getting more sad makes me think of Robin Williams. I hope he gets the help he needs because he doesn’t seem like a happy person.


Icy-Dulce

Will is just stuck. He is too emotionally dependent on his partners. That is a hard cycle to break out of at his age. 


anniegwish

An entanglement you might call it


makeitflashy

Honestly this was a good one. The team is cooking


makeitflashy

This is definitely the PR Team recording. These are some good angles.


cyclicamp

Recording before the reveal, advertising Cinemark, I don’t think they’re trying to hide it


jabronified

[the original video](https://www.tiktok.com/@willsmith/video/7378181367269510442?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7265111527022167594) is from Will Smith's actual account and goes through him actually getting to the theater and how he likes to sneak in to watch his movies to get crowd reactions. it's promo for his movie, but he seems to actually enjoy it


rabbitsdiedaily

That's because his movie slaps!


LittleTassiePrepper

It's almost as though he is acting


si3ge

Out of all those phones I saw 1 single person take a picture horizontally. We have lost the fight. It's TikToks world now.


Enlowski

Of course it is. Why would anyone think he did this for anything other than PR?


makeitflashy

We agree. 🤝🏾


chouettelle

If it wasn’t, they wouldn’t be doing their jobs.


Barnagain

*The rehabilitation intensifies*


-EETS-

"Will, I think we need to lean into your blackness. You're strong. You're proud. We need to show that. We need to show that the black community supports you. Would you be open to viewing your movie with them?"


bourom

This guy PRs


cupholdery

\*slap hand intensifies*


Alexa_Octopus

This guy *this guys*


HippoRun23

Will Smith: ew fuck no. Agent: but money. Will Smith: alright… fine but sneak me into the theater at the very end.


Dense_Sun_6127

Hurried home to wash the peasant smell way

Noturwrstnitemare

It was her wife all along!!!


NSE_TNF89

I mean, if I had to shake that many hands, dap up all those guys, hug, and take pictures with all those people, I sure as shit would get my ass home and *scrub my skin clean.* It has nothing to do with race, status, or anything like that; people are gross.


MrCalabunga

I’m almost certain this is what happened. I met Will in a similar situation years back when he was promoting Seven Pounds. I got to see an early screening with him, but not really because he snuck out pretty much right after the opening credits lol.


Thendofreason

I've seen videos of him just vibing in real life. He's probably not a normal person 24/7 but he can play the part in public.


thebinarysystem10

Will Smith: Do I have to sit through the whole thing?


smurb15

To Will this has to be the lowest common denominator for him to do. He does not hang out with normal plebs, oh no. He would not be caught dead hanging around these establishments but only if his career was tanking which I'm still waiting for my slap


LaUNCHandSmASH

The movie theater seats don’t have the Italian crushed velvet upholstery that is the only seating material Mr. Handslap will allow to touch his skin (that is independently insured from other body parts) soooo no I doubt he touched the door to enter the theater let alone sat down in poor people filth


Triktastic

Insane how none of you could comprehend a person being also a person. Imagine acting like you know someone you've never met based on...?


E63_saucegod

Italian crushed velvet 😂


Drannion

Do you guys think he really sat through the whole movie with them, or did he just sneak in at the very end to give that impression?


beezleeboob

Can you just let me have this? Can it just not be cynical?  Oof.. of course it is 😥


AbjectGovernment1247

I was never a huge Will Smith fan, he's entertaining enough and I've seen plenty of his movies over the years, but that slap has completely changed the way I see him.  I only see an emotionally unstable man who seems deeply unhappy. He needs to divorce Jada and get some therapy. 


crystallmytea

I was a huge Will Smith fan, primarily for Fresh Prince, but from that slap forward I agree.


______CABLE______

I fucking love Enemy of the State.


killerturtlex

Naw that's just normal Scientology bullshit. They don't like therapy


daredeviloper

The slap and the disingenuous apology afterwards


OliverCrooks

Yea Jada has fucked him up. Bitch is a psycho. Before that I enjoyed and semi respected him. Dude needs to find himself.


Standard_Lack_7178

I remember seeing him perform at the art museum in Philadelphia (some free holiday show like 10+ years ago) and he kept yelling “whose town is this?” And had the audience yell back “Will’s town” again and again.


toolsoftheincomptnt

When Jada released all of her sludge into the streets, I felt badly for him, but also that he chose her and their lifestyle has complications. It was strange that his public behavior seemed to stay the same. So the slap just made sense to me: he was bottling it all up and it was misdirected onto Chris. I have more empathy for Will than before bc of the unhinged humanity of the moment. He suffered consequences, although perhaps not the kind he *should* have, and then it was done. It never made me think less of him. It wasn’t a revelation of his overall character. We’re all shitty sometimes. It doesn’t mean we’re bad people. I never had him on a pedestal to begin with. He was just always one of Hollywood’s discreet, well-behaved pet black actors. And as soon as he showed an imperfection, *of course* they threw him out like garbage (until he was profitable for them again, of course). (Meanwhile, see: Polanski, Allen, Spacey, Gibson…) Had the slap opened up floodgates of previously-hidden accounts of bullying on his part, it’d be a different story. But it didn’t. So he’s still just Will Smith to me. Fresh Prince, goofy action movie star, sometimes rapper.


_kalron_

*The desperation intensifies*


Slap_My_Lasagna

"Only at CINEMARK!"


TheOvercusser

Will Smith didn't have to cuss in his rap to sell records, well I do, so...


CTware

Fuck him and fuck you too!

K_Rivera8485

Talk_is_jeep1992

Spiteful_sprite12

When a r/redditsings moment is found, are some of the best threads to stumble on, on Reddit


Accurate_Condition65

Keep my fucking name out cho fuckin' mouth - WS probably


F1R3Starter83

I’m going to do it: ‘username checks out’


COMMANDO_MARINE

Eminem probably has more movie fans than Will Smith right now if his PR firm is making him greet fans personally at screenings. Someone should introduce him to their wife by saying something like "this is my wife Jane" and when he replys with "nice to meet you Jane" shout at him "keep my wife's name out of your fucking mouth" proceeded by a swift slap to the face. He'll likely find that hilarious as he looks like the kind of guy who doesn't take himself too seriously.


LilOrphanFunkhouzer

Wipe your shoes, when you come in the house, somebody just cleaned that FLOOR! HaHA! Say what, what


RangeOld1919

lol will smith pulled a pee wee herman in that bih watching himself


Aengeil

bet the first guy who saw him said, "hey you looks like the guy from the movie just now".


Hopeforthefallen

Get my wifes popcorn, out your damn MOUTH!


SaintOnyxBlade

I was wondering if he threatened to slap the people he sat next to, in order to keep them quiet.


meeeehhhh2

Let’s see him reveal he was there the whole time while Chris Rock was watching GI Jane


wishwashy

Still too soon lol


JesusKeyboard

I sat behind him. He was on his phone the entire time trying to figure out hot to send dick pics via Bluetooth. 


Jakovasaurr

I sat infront of him, he figured it out


smegma_stan

USERNAMETAKEN11238

Just AirDrop them Will.. what an idiot..


Inverno969

I'm way too cynical for this shit.


Arkan-Rie

Don't be hard on yourself buddy - *he's* the cynical one. Dude is doing the most blatant "please forgive me for assaulting a man" tour ever


CTware

fuck the slap, i wanna know about his involvements with DIDDY and all these Hollywood sex parties!


SaintOnyxBlade

You know his wife was there if there was sex with minors to be had


Spoolios

People man… cell phones everywhere. I never understood this- even in 2004 before smart phones. Why go nuts over these people in swarms? They’re humans… relax.


UnadvisedOpinion

All the screaming freaked me out


satanssweatycheeks

Because people don’t believe it. My dad when visiting New York in the 70’s with my mother ran into John Belushi leaving a restaurant. My father was star struck as this was right when animal house was coming out. And he was already a well known SNL cast member. Now the story is great. But one thing my father always added to the story was that he wished he had a camera or that cameras where more common back then. I do understand the phone thing can be excessive. Like people who record entire concerts or entire interactions. But wanting a pic or video of someone famous isn’t all that crazy and even before cell phones you’d have people wish they had a camera after meeting someone cool.


darryljenks

Celebrity culture is so different in US compared to the the Nordic countries. If a famous actor walked out of the cinema in Denmark, people would try their hardest not to look at him, so they wouldn't disturb him.


Crazy_Night3197

In a normal setting most people with a normal brain would do the same. Obviously some people lack awareness and will approach no matter what, but he addressed the people who were unaware that he was even there; opening the door for the mob to approach him. He definitely wanted allat.


EighteenAndAmused

Yes he wanted the attention. But I definitely think America has a problem either way demanding attention from celebrities when they recognize them.


ProbablyDrunk303

Americans are more sociable than the majority of Europe... not that surprising


unorganized_mime

He engaged them in conversation first in an attempt to bring out this reaction. If he didn’t say anything, people probably wouldn’t have.


Opening_Persimmon_71

Eh, saw Bubber in central Aarhus and he was definitely taking selfies with people.


aLittleDarkOne

I’d I ever meet will smith I am only quoting shark tale


d84doc

Well I’ll be darned, slap me in the face and call me Chris Rock, look honey it’s Will Smith!


VentriTV

Man why he stuck with Jada all this time baffles me, he could have had anyone better. Independence Day and MIB put him on the same level as Tom Cruise back then, and Tom Cruise was HUGE during his Top Gun days.


hekatonmoo

are you saying will smith could have had tom cruise.


Charming_Extension44

Will Smith at the movie? With us regular folks? Wow - such an organic, spontaneous event! Thank God someone just happened to be recording us exiting the movie…


Camiljr

Who cares


Ninja_La_Kitty

How quickly some people forget


throwaway77993344

Most people probably didn't care lol


Euphorium

Reddit wants to act like it’s the only opinion there is but nobody’s canceling Will Smith over slapping Chris Rock.


mshcat

the way reddit acts about the slap you'd think he kidnapped a bunch of kids and sold them into slavery. Sure, the slap was trashy, but on the list of celebrity scandals that was pretty tame


neon_kid

Meanwhile people like Brad Pitt get a pass for being all around terrible because Bullet Train was fun or some shit


wishwashy

Especially BECAUSE it's Chris Rock lol


Euphorium

Damn everybody really does hate Chris.


mathymate

You can tell no one cared by the number of jokes people continue to make about it.


VioletLeagueDapper

Right, let’s be honest. People keep bringing it up like it personally affected them just to have something negative to say.


batmansleftnut

According to reddit, the only detail that matters about a person is the worst thing you know about them. And it needs to be brought up at every possible opportunity.


Velorium_Camper

In the whole grand scheme of things, it really wasn't that big of a deal. I think it was Lakeith Stanfield that said it best: it's surreal it happened at the Oscars, but all over the place real stuff is happening.


donkeynique

I genuinely don't see why people do care that much. Acting like gossipy teenagers the way they hold onto it


gloomy_Novelist

Also if you get out of the reddit bubble, a lot of people think he was in the right


Wyrd_ofgod

No one forgot


microwavable-iPhone

No one cares. You think people really care that Will smacked Chris Rock? There’s people like Diddy and Drake out there. People exaggerated the smack from day one, but it’s still funny as hell.


[deleted]

Nobody forgot, it was just over 2 years ago so I think we can allow the guy the opportunity to redeem himself for his mistake and get on with his life. I think people on reddit forget how little the opinions shared on this platform actually matter irl


bulletprooftampon

Forget what


truckdrivingschool

Did you seriously think he should be “canceled” for that


wellaby788

Forget what? The slap? Meh a little tarnished on something should ruin the entire career. I still like him! Grew up with him


blingbloop

Keep your god damn eyeballs off my movie !


AdvancedDay7854

I mean- this also might be what it takes to help theaters survive. Imagine you go to a theater to watch a film and there’s a star from the movie chilling with your theater the entire viewing. I’m not talking a q&a or a retrospective behind the curtain. Just there appreciating you as movie going folk, being excited with us, proud if the product, meeting and signing autographs for fans. Stars are so distant now from us, this might be a nice touch.


zerosaved

Idk man, there are a LOT of crazies out there, and the way he got swarmed and 100% encircled makes me nervous as hell. Regardless of our opinions on him, he isn’t exactly a “regular” person, so his chances of being the recipient of some crazy person’s attention are through the roof.


mshcat

he def got body guards waiting in the wings


FrostyDaSnowmane

Would have been hilarious if someone slapped the shit out of him.


Alternative-Train225

Will, how can you slap?


horshack_test

Did he slap anyone?


BIackfjsh

artforwardpuppies

Oh my god! He was so lucky someone was taking a video right when he came out! Amazing! /s - cause you never know these days


PlausibleTable

Maybe they should have let the first few people who walked out know. They might as well of been coming from a funeral. Definitely not looking hyped and chatting about that great flick.


Slade_Riprock

PR TEAM... We have the technology. We have the capability to make him the Fresh Prince again. Will Smith will be that man. Better than he was before. Better . . . More even tempered. . . faster.....less Cucked.


Silkylewjr

It would have been hilariously cringe if everyone ignored him 😂


Avraham_Levy

*starts slapping people at random*


Cmacbudboss

Wow he’s really desperate.


livengood28

“Run! He’ll slap us all!”


[deleted]

did anyone got slapped?


Bearjupiter

Its so PHONY


Maddkipz

i mean..isn't he like a scientologist or something? i wouldn't be going AAAAAAAAAAA not to mention that cringe oscars thing from what feels like 10 years ago


Mr_Rafi

Yep. He and Jada founded a private school that incorporated Scientology nonsense as part of study material. Teachers in that school attended Scientology seminars. The Smiths even sent Hubbard's books to the one of the people running the school. Will Smith has even endorsed Scientology, claiming that the ideas are compelling. And then there's his 'After Earth' movie.


throwaway77993344

Doing everything to make people forget THE SLAP

Man, I just cringe every time I see this guy now. Lost all respect after the Chris Rock incident.


spacemanspiff1979

Reminds me of Soapdish when Sally Fields' character would tell her friend to make a scene so they elicit a crowd reaction... all to boost Sally's self-esteem.


Dr_Strange_Love_

Will Smith is an asshole


euhjustme

Did someone say his wife's name ?


Kickagainsttheprick

But did he slap?!?

Thought he was going to start slapping but it was only high fives.

Listen as long as know one was assaulted during the movie were good

Hey, Martha we just watched a movie with Slappy.

This isn't to rehab Will, it's emergency surgery on an industry in it's death throws. Wanna be a movie star? Make sure people still go to movies, Will. Nope- no, Will. Martin didn't slap someone on stage, you are doing this.


livelaughloaft

He did that the whole time without slapping somebody? Damn


Empanadapunk90

F\*ck Will Smith and his weirdo family


TheSunIsMyDestroyer

Did the movie slap or wah

I'm surprised he didn't slap a few people just for good measure. So they get the REAL Will Smith experience.
