Well Hopkins deserves an Oscar for being a lifelong alcoholic - so who is HE to speak? It's true. Look it up. What a weak person he is. He does not deserve to talk about someone else's "moment" of judgement or mistake. He has to live with his condition forever. He cannot take a drink EVER. For LIFE.

You can hear his voice shake, the shallow chest breathing, and can tell he's very uncomfortable saying what needed to be said. It might not look like it but that was incredibly brave

For those who this went over your heads- To Hopkins,"What an evening meant,"What a shitshow" and Will smith said it all,pretty much meant Will Smith started the bullshit and thanked him sarcastically.
And that’s why we all messed up cause of ways of communicating and ones understanding of the message received. I’m a New Yorker so that’s my way of receiving it. If you see otherwise then only Hopkins can explain that
Man, that standing ovation. You know you're an absolute legend when the entire Hollywood elite is showing this much respect to you. I mean even Dame Judy Dench is showing some love.
I mean... they gave a standing ovation to Will Smith that same night, and he had just committed battery on stage. I don't think the bar for a standing ovation is particular high at this event.
Anthony what a gentleman that's how to carry ur self look at the respect this man gets, he's never let him self down that how it's done 👍 shame it went over Wills head
I agree, a class act who deserved the standing ovation he got, more than Will Smith got.! One thing, I am afraid what he said went over my head too, could someone repeat and explain it
For those who do not know, Hopkins has worked with Rock on a movie called Bad Company back in the early 2000's. Pretty sure he was not happy with him being assaulted on stage.
Sir Anthony Hopkins is a true gentleman and epitomizes the word class. Will and Jada unfortunately ruined the night for so many people by their classless, rude behavior.
Plus he had a serious drinking problem for a few years. Olivier told him to stop the booze or he would never become as good as Olivier knew he could be. We are lucky that he found the strength to overcome.
OMG I am so in awe of Anthony Hopkins. To me he is so formidable, yet gentle, intelligent yet humble, respectful yet embolden, pleasant yet intimidating, typical yet fascinating, warm yet chilling, alluring yet frightening. The sound of his voice makes me want to hang on in anticipation of what ever the next word will be as if it will contain some knowledge, enlightenment or philosophy of some kind. I swear I could listen to this man read Internal Revenue Service tax code or the dictionary like ASMR on repeated loop.
@@maureenflovers1331 Hannibal Lector is my favorite serial killer of all time. Anthony Hopkins is always himself not the character no matter what role he takes in a movie.
Sure wasn't. What Will did, in my opinion, was a selfish act, lead on by a controlling wife, who got offended over a joke, that was supposed to be a COMPLIMENT!! Because if Jada remembered who the character GI Jane was, she wouldn't have made that terrible eyeroll..smh.
Will Smith isn’t stupid. He, as a black man, made a career and became at one point the biggest movie star in America. You wish you could be so lucky goofy
The great Anthony Hopkins looks directly at Will Smith at 50: seconds and again at 1:43 pause at those times and imagine that disapproval glare was Hannibal. What a guy.
Lmao those were all split second glances in two different directions. What the hell are you talking about. You’re basically pointing out random moments he opens his eyes💀

@@PlayerVid , idk, there might be a reason. Some people in all walks of life can have spoiled toxic kids. On the other hand some people are just pretending to be nice.
he didn't "throw shade" he was gracious and truthful........this is how everyone should act instead of reacting. shade is darkness. grace is unearned undeserved favor. we can accept someone without accepting their behavior.
Thank you! I didn't get "Shade" from this either. I think he's a pure class act and I think he truly wants this event to be peaceful, loving and quiet. It wreaked of forgiveness to me. It alluded not to Will's sin, but to Will's apology and the acceptance of that apology. To me he was saying, it's time to forgive. Let tonight be about peace and love.
And my wife wonders why I’m such a huge Sir Anthony Hopkins fan and of British culture period. (I’m still a fan of Will Smith) To brilliantly execute a condescending compliment that intimidated Smith to the point where he knew he couldn’t even think to try to approach the stage AGAIN was priceless.

And Will Smith is clapping and thinks Sir Anthony Hopkins is congratulating his behavior. Hopkins knew Richard Burton, so knows what would happen to Will Smith tried that shit on him.
Richard Burton brings up an interesting scenario: What happens if Burton and Elizabeth Taylor were front row at the Oscars and Chris Rock makes a fat joke about her?
I don’t think he was actually trying to shade him because he was referring to his Oscar acceptance speech. It was funny though because everyone will remember the “ keep my wives name out of your f’n mouth” more than anything Will Smith has ever said in his life. What a low class dude.
I actually think this was before Will's speech, so yeah...Anthony was trying to school him a bit. I wouldn't say "shade" him tho. But real shit, Sir Hopkins seems shaken up by that shit. Like he's legit AFRAID! smh
I think it was after the speech. I think he was actually encouraging him to live by his words, by choosing to see them positively, and I think Will seemed to understand that.
Oh no, he was absolutely, 100% shading Will with his dry, sarcastic British humor. Stating that “Will pretty much said it all tonight” was Sir Anthony Hopkins’s way of politely calling Will Smith an ignorant t**t.
One would have to be drunk to go on a stage in front of the audience and the world and lower themself to being a thug. Sure everyone has bad days, but this was his night. The last thing you want to do is stain it by losing your temper. And his wife should’ve had more fortitude and not let the audience or Will see her reaction to Chris’ joke. Chris was roasting everyone that night. Everyone else understood Chris wasn’t attacking people out of hate. Even Will laughed at the joke because he knew that too. But Jada…her focus should’ve been to maintain her composure and support Will, and after the show was over, she could’ve spoke to Will about how she felt about Chris teasing her. At least the drama would have happened off screen and the talk wouldn’t have been about the slap the whole week after.
I believe he actually thought he was still in character as King Richard. And also tipsy because he laughed himself. And Jada is a lost cause for the faces she made.
And if he'd been the man of that household, he would've said "baby it's not that serious. But if you want, i'll speak to him later. Ok. THAT'S taking the lead.
Truly what I have seen from that woman: it's all about her. But either way: Will broke my heart. Honestly, whenever I think about it, I'm still shocked.
Getting burned by Anthony Hopkins was an honor Will didn’t deserve. The camera shots of Will should have been minimized after the incident to a ‘ONLY IF WE NEED TO’ basis. The whole thing was awkward for everyone…
Cameras had to show Will, cause they were waiting for him to get up and slap Hopkins. Obviously he has no idea what’s an insult, a joke or a complement. This time he thought it was a complement when really he should have got up and slap him
@@10gstreet lol. I’d hate to say this, but there’s no reality where will smith would have slapped Anthony Hopkins and had anything left of an existence after. Sad to say that there’s no way that shit would have flown, for clearly colored & obvious reasons. (Just picture it)
@@amjnyc79 you are right he would be utterly and completely finished if he had slapped Anthony Hopkins, the man is almost universally loved, hes in his 80s so he would be hitting an elderly man and finally he didn't say anything that could in any way be used to justify being assaulted (not that chris did either but in this case there would be absolutely no grey area). Assulting a beloved elderly legendary actor at the academy awards the year after he had just won his second best actor award and received a standing ovation no chance he would ever have a career left.
@Go Home Roger in a blink of an eye, or should we say in a roll of an eye by Jada.... Will lost everything he worked so hard for. He will never be able to get to that same level again. He might be able to get some minor parts but never be the star. He is forever on the D list of actors.
Love how he showed appreciation to all of the hardworking actors as he was about to introduce the nominees because it was a night to celebrate actors and their hard work and will smith took all of that away by causing a scene
@@malcolmxpanther And that’s why he’s in a treatment center getting help? You sure seem to be protective of him with all of your comments. Upset another one messed up in a very public way?

A giant of the stage and screen who I hope can be with us for many years to come. His ability to use words with that remarkable voice coming from a face so expressive that he can stop and watch for a moment and say more with that look than many say with hundreds of words. I salute you.
He SHOULD be embarrassed. But, I swear, the cajones on that guy ... I don't think he's dumb, so he just must be arrogant and misguided, perhaps a bit mental.
Good thing Jada didn't pick up on Anthony's sarcasm, otherwise she would have frowned again and Will would have gone back up on stage for round two 🤣
At that point, he would have been struck down by the wrath of Odin... Or maybe he would have Will Smith's liver with a side of fava beans and a nice Chianti

Amy Schumer announcing SIR Anthony Hopkins should not be allowed. It feels so wrong, like she shouldn't even be in the same room as a man as wonderfully talented as Hopkins.
She shouldnt even be in Hollywood. She's an obnoxious bitter childish woman.

@@liamphibiaDAMN, man. Lol
That’s ridiculous. I don’t like shumer but he’s just a person. The only think that makes a person better is their last selfish act
Totally agree
Anthony Hopkins is what a true legend is in every way.
Only a narcissist like Will Smith could act like that was a compliment to him 🙄
Now he is a narcissist
....... Lord help us all. Thank you for Jesus.....
Forgiveness. Humans judge others so harshly... As if... Under scrutiny they'll survive 30 months... or days...
A lot of people uses the term "narcissist", I guess it's a trend for everyone to be labeled a narcissistic.
Enough already !!!
@@0007Jinx Short answer Yes. Long answer. There's judging. And then theirs humans using vocabulary to describe someone's behaviour. That's called communication. Will Smith over the years has shown behaviours of NPD... and Jada, a vulnerable narcissist. Although admittedly I'm not aware whether they have been officially diagnosed. That's why he's being helped by experts like Dr. Ramani and Esther Perel. These two people are two of the best experts in Narcissism. I use the word Narcissism when it perfectly describes someone's behaviour, as in this video, how he treated Janet Hubert, his Oscars speech, his justification of his own violence and his physical assault of someone else... and his post reaction to his own behaviour. Did you not know that they had illicited Dr. Ramanis help? What the old Aunt Viv said about Will was actually the truth. I hope he can heal as I love his work and think he's done a lot of good. The fact that they are trying is at least better than most. Love Dr. Ramani. She's spot on and isn't afraid to talk about it, name it and describe it. I'll talk about Narcissism whenNarcissistic behaviour presents itself. Here's a random clip of Dr. Ramani. Please look her up. She's great! fb.watch/cvjBHWdTkM/
@@anaromo879 Yes i agree a lot of people do throw this term around, and it's still true that Will Smith over the years has shown behaviours of NPD. Both true. and Jada, a vulnerable narcissist. Granted I do not know if he's been officially diagnosed, my comment is accurate. That's why he's being helped by experts like Dr. Ramani and Esther Perel. These two people are two of the best experts in Narcissism. I don't just "throw" current words around as you have insinuated in your comment, especially such pathologically mental and dark descriptions such as Narcissism. I use it when it perfectly describes someone's behaviour. Did you not know that they had illicited Dr. Ramanis help? What the old Aunt Viv said about Will was actually the truth. I hope he can heal as I love his work and think he's done a lot of good. The fact that they are trying is at least better than most. Love Dr. Ramani. She's spot on and isn't afraid to talk about it, name it and describe it. Enough already indeed. Enough already not naming Narcissistic behaviour when it presents itself. Here's random clip of Dr. Ramani. Please look her up. She's great! fb.watch/cvjBHWdTkM/
Every actor is a narcissist
Hilarious how Wil Smith was patting himself on the back while thinking he was being complimented..Brilliantly done by one of the last real actors…
For those who this went over your heads- To Hopkins,"What an evening meant,"What a shitshow" and Will smith said it all,pretty much meant Will Smith started the bullshit and thanked him sarcastically.
Idk about that cause he just thanked him afterwards, don’t sound sarcastic to me
@@vanity243 You don't understand British Lingo. My best friend is Brittany. He was giving Will shade. The Brits do things in an off beat manner.
And that’s why we all messed up cause of ways of communicating and ones understanding of the message received. I’m a New Yorker so that’s my way of receiving it. If you see otherwise then only Hopkins can explain that
Gotta love Anthony Hopkins!!! I wonder what Ricky Gervais might have said if HE was presenting an award after the infamous slap..
@@Twistedpeppermint99 I'd have paid to see that! lol
When Hopkins walks onstage, all the class goes with him.
Offstage
Offstage fool
Yes, he is very classy cause he's British and talks slowly. Is that it?
@@eddies366 cry more
But none of his alcohol can go with him on stage because he's lifelong recovering alcoholic. FOREVER. Weakness.
Man, that standing ovation. You know you're an absolute legend when the entire Hollywood elite is showing this much respect to you. I mean even Dame Judy Dench is showing some love.
They all stood for will smith. They are all cunts. I wanna know who DIDNT stand
They look like robots its so weird
lol they're only actors. They pretend to be someone else for a while, that's it.
I mean... they gave a standing ovation to Will Smith that same night, and he had just committed battery on stage. I don't think the bar for a standing ovation is particular high at this event.
Anthony what a gentleman that's how to carry ur self look at the respect this man gets, he's never let him self down that how it's done 👍 shame it went over Wills head
I agree, a class act who deserved the standing ovation he got, more than Will Smith got.! One thing, I am afraid what he said went over my head too, could someone repeat and explain it
@@MrAddonald9 he said it with a sarcasm undertone to imply that Will should follow his own words. Love and Peace
And not once during his long career did Sir Anthony ever slap anyone!
Exactly!!
Clarice!
Will Smith has no clue what the true meaning was behind the words of this true and Legendary Anthony Hopkins.
And that's a fact
Exactly.....no clue.
If only Jada was there and gave him the look then he would've got it and slapped the sht out of Anthony Hopkins.
@@MaximumCarne doubt it
@@MaximumCarne my initials is and MF
But l doubt strongly that he even would have approach Anthony Hopkins..that man is way out of Will's league
The boss music starts at 0:03
For those who do not know, Hopkins has worked with Rock on a movie called Bad Company back in the early 2000's. Pretty sure he was not happy with him being assaulted on stage.
Correct. Smith's a fool. Thought it was a compliment!
Bad company's a terrible film but I'm sure they had a blast making it
Sir Anthony Hopkins is a true gentleman and epitomizes the word class. Will and Jada unfortunately ruined the night for so many people by their classless, rude behavior.
This man is now 85 years old. Damn. He could pass for 70 honestly.
65 max 😍
Plus he had a serious drinking problem for a few years. Olivier told him to stop the booze or he would never become as good as Olivier knew he could be. We are lucky that he found the strength to overcome.
Will smith didn't get it lmao
sorry but i dont get either? can you explain please, by the way fuck will smith
Perhaps he did ,he can't can't exactly go up there and slap him ,can he
@@ninasimone1207 😂😂
To funy 😆
@@ninasimone1207 Or can he? 🤔
OMG I am so in awe of Anthony Hopkins. To me he is so formidable, yet gentle, intelligent yet humble, respectful yet embolden, pleasant yet intimidating, typical yet fascinating, warm yet chilling, alluring yet frightening. The sound of his voice makes me want to hang on in anticipation of what ever the next word will be as if it will contain some knowledge, enlightenment or philosophy of some kind. I swear I could listen to this man read Internal Revenue Service tax code or the dictionary like ASMR on repeated loop.
His calm but demanding voice still gives me chills after watching Silence of the Lamb
He didn't even have to start out as a rapper.
@@maureenflovers1331 Hannibal Lector is my favorite serial killer of all time. Anthony Hopkins is always himself not the character no matter what role he takes in a movie.

Thank you Will for speaking about love after publicly slapping a man in front of the world. No mixed messages at all.
😂😂😂
Are you stupid? He said „Will Smith said it all… EXCEPT peace and love and quiet“
Anthony Hopkins is a legendary actor and a true gentleman. He knows how to conduct himself. Love all his movies. 👍👍👍
He is an English man
I do believe he is Welsh.
@@raygray7779 you are right.
@@shanaazabrahams1319 He is a fine actor though, much better than Will Smith. ☺
I love him. I don’t think will actually felt it was a compliment. I think he was smiling through the embarrassment
We need a clip where Will is shouting and then the clip from the first Thor movie where Tony Hopkins says " Silence"
Damn that's good
That silence was venomous I still remember it till this day.
That’s awesome 👏 👏

Anthony Hopkins one of the best actors ever “to grace the screen” if not the very best… ♥️
Incredible guy.
Adam Sandler is better
@@rodneyoneill75 lol... than what?
A man with class, manners, and the humble grace and intelligence of a gentleman. Then there's Will........
Who hasn't been married 3 times
Will taking that as a compliment demonstrates his emotional intelligence.
Coppola certainly wasn’t smiling at :59 by Will Smith’s stupidity.
Sure wasn't. What Will did, in my opinion, was a selfish act, lead on by a controlling wife, who got offended over a joke, that was supposed to be a COMPLIMENT!! Because if Jada remembered who the character GI Jane was, she wouldn't have made that terrible eyeroll..smh.
OMG I went back to check it and I'm embarrassed for will.
You got this right. Id bet if a reporter was wise and caught this they would interview him for his thoughts: he see Will for what he is.
Will Smith isn’t stupid. He, as a black man, made a career and became at one point the biggest movie star in America. You wish you could be so lucky goofy
@@malcolmxpanther ...so he's not stupid because he's "lucky?"
The great Anthony Hopkins looks directly at Will Smith at 50: seconds and again at 1:43 pause at those times and imagine that disapproval glare was Hannibal. What a guy.
Lmao those were all split second glances in two different directions. What the hell are you talking about. You’re basically pointing out random moments he opens his eyes💀
honestly one of the best actors of his generation, this man deserves every ounce of respect he receives
Why is Smith laughing n happy???? He should of been kicked out.
he should have been escorted out in handcuffs infront of the whole audience.
The joy in Dame Judi Dench's face at 0:30 says it all. So many in this audience absolutely adores and respects Anthony Hopkins.
The way he said "Good evening" sounds just like how he said it as the Hannibal character. I bet he could still perform the role easily if asked to.
0:59
That old man behind Smith looked at him like, "The fool even thinks that was a compliment."
That old man is the Legendary Director Francis Ford Coppola, brought us The Godfather trilogies, Apocalypse Now, The Outsiders. I stand by his reaction to Will Smith
@@billykokkinidis Are you serious? That's Coppola? Did he lose weight?
@@AFO_AnalyRics yes it is, he’s 83 yo now he’s getting old and skinny. Watch him up on stage with Al Pacino and Robert Deniro at the same Oscars
@@billykokkinidis Amazing. Glad he's still alive. Last I saw of him was an interview where he said something along the lines of "the things they ban you for in your twenties and thirties, they give you lifetime achievement awards for in your sixties and seventies."
His movie was honored for turning 50, but it took place immediately after the slap. He's probably over there stewing about it.
If only Ricky Gervais was next on stage after the 'slap'! Now that, i'd loved to have seen lol
No and also this was for Best Actress, so the last year's Best Actor winner presents.

For Best Actress, it was supposed to be Will Smith. Now, the Academy will have to pick someone else.
If Will Smith had as many IQ points as the number of men Jada had cheated on him with.......he would have got that Anthony Hopkins was making fun of him.
This is what Class looks and sounds like, something Will Smith will never acquire, no matter how large his bank account.

@@desserttree it can buy ass.
I'd rather have Anthony Hopkins defend me. He can be more frightening than Will Smith.
He's Hannibal after all
Now this guy is what Hollywood used to be like. Class!
The shade was so smooth that even Will Smith was clapping....
There was no shade .
he didn't "throw shade" he was gracious and truthful........this is how everyone should act instead of reacting. shade is darkness. grace is unearned undeserved favor. we can accept someone without accepting their behavior.
The cautious laughs in the audience suggest otherwise.
100%. How anyone can interpret what this man is saying as "Shade" is beyond me. It is in fact a reflection of their own dark minds and nothing else.
Thank you! I didn't get "Shade" from this either. I think he's a pure class act and I think he truly wants this event to be peaceful, loving and quiet. It wreaked of forgiveness to me. It alluded not to Will's sin, but to Will's apology and the acceptance of that apology. To me he was saying, it's time to forgive. Let tonight be about peace and love.
C'mon we all know he was a bit cheeky with that comment. Just had enough good taste not to linger on it
@@Lisa-qk1xj he was being sarcastic.
Everyone in that room disgraced themselves that night, an assault in front of their eyes and they did nothing

anthony hopkins didn't like that sht. chris rocks his costar from bad company
"Let's have peace and love and quiet."
Sir, I could not agree more.
Ok we need a meme where Will shouts and Hopkins does the sssssssssssssssss thing.
He is truly one of the best to ever do it. I love this guy's acting. Great movies and performances through out the years.
And my wife wonders why I’m such a huge Sir Anthony Hopkins fan and of British culture period. (I’m still a fan of Will Smith) To brilliantly execute a condescending compliment that intimidated Smith to the point where he knew he couldn’t even think to try to approach the stage AGAIN was priceless.
Has Will Smith got any theatres named after him?

@@hiawathaclemons I do not acknowledge most of the knighted people as ‘Sir’ but Tony is seriously deserving of this recognition. He is a real gentleman and we miss him. We hope he keeps doing what he’s doing for many more years. Diolch cariad.
And Will Smith is clapping and thinks Sir Anthony Hopkins is congratulating his behavior. Hopkins knew Richard Burton, so knows what would happen to Will Smith tried that shit on him.
Will Smith was in a state of confusion and weakness, he'd clap at anything at that point. I feel sad for him
Richard Burton brings up an interesting scenario: What happens if Burton and Elizabeth Taylor were front row at the Oscars and Chris Rock makes a fat joke about her?
Nah his eyes are full of hate
Compare this laugh to the one he laughed at Chris Rock’s joke
I love this man. Hes such an amazing actor with an impressive legacy 🥰
I can’t believe Anthony Hopkins has to be in the same room with Will Smith. The vast differences in class is staggering.
I don’t think he was actually trying to shade him because he was referring to his Oscar acceptance speech. It was funny though because everyone will remember the “ keep my wives name out of your f’n mouth” more than anything Will Smith has ever said in his life. What a low class dude.
I actually think this was before Will's speech, so yeah...Anthony was trying to school him a bit. I wouldn't say "shade" him tho. But real shit, Sir Hopkins seems shaken up by that shit. Like he's legit AFRAID! smh
How was that even „shade“?
I think it was after the speech. I think he was actually encouraging him to live by his words, by choosing to see them positively, and I think Will seemed to understand that.
That’s a very premature conclusion to make
Oh no, he was absolutely, 100% shading Will with his dry, sarcastic British humor. Stating that “Will pretty much said it all tonight” was Sir Anthony Hopkins’s way of politely calling Will Smith an ignorant t**t.
One would have to be drunk to go on a stage in front of the audience and the world and lower themself to being a thug. Sure everyone has bad days, but this was his night. The last thing you want to do is stain it by losing your temper. And his wife should’ve had more fortitude and not let the audience or Will see her reaction to Chris’ joke. Chris was roasting everyone that night. Everyone else understood Chris wasn’t attacking people out of hate. Even Will laughed at the joke because he knew that too. But Jada…her focus should’ve been to maintain her composure and support Will, and after the show was over, she could’ve spoke to Will about how she felt about Chris teasing her. At least the drama would have happened off screen and the talk wouldn’t have been about the slap the whole week after.
Come to think of it, he could have been drunk for real or a lil bit tipsy? That never crossed my mind.
I believe he actually thought he was still in character as King Richard. And also tipsy because he laughed himself. And Jada is a lost cause for the faces she made.
And if he'd been the man of that household, he would've said "baby it's not that serious. But if you want, i'll speak to him later. Ok. THAT'S taking the lead.
Truly what I have seen from that woman: it's all about her. But either way:
Will broke my heart.
Honestly, whenever I think about it, I'm still shocked.
@@stephenemmanuel8744 Still not an excuse
Getting burned by Anthony Hopkins was an honor Will didn’t deserve. The camera shots of Will should have been minimized after the incident to a ‘ONLY IF WE NEED TO’ basis.
The whole thing was awkward for everyone…
Cameras had to show Will, cause they were waiting for him to get up and slap Hopkins. Obviously he has no idea what’s an insult, a joke or a complement. This time he thought it was a complement when really he should have got up and slap him
@@10gstreet lol.
I’d hate to say this, but there’s no reality where will smith would have slapped Anthony Hopkins and had anything left of an existence after.
Sad to say that there’s no way that shit would have flown, for clearly colored & obvious reasons.
(Just picture it)
@@amjnyc79 you are right he would be utterly and completely finished if he had slapped Anthony Hopkins, the man is almost universally loved, hes in his 80s so he would be hitting an elderly man and finally he didn't say anything that could in any way be used to justify being assaulted (not that chris did either but in this case there would be absolutely no grey area). Assulting a beloved elderly legendary actor at the academy awards the year after he had just won his second best actor award and received a standing ovation no chance he would ever have a career left.
Will deserves it all. He’s a legendary actor. You wish you could reach his level goofy
@Go Home Roger in a blink of an eye, or should we say in a roll of an eye by Jada.... Will lost everything he worked so hard for. He will never be able to get to that same level again. He might be able to get some minor parts but never be the star. He is forever on the D list of actors.
Man, Sir Anthony threw that shade so flawlessly and WS just bought it instantly as a compliment XD
I still can't believe Will actually thought it was acceptable to sit his ass down in front of the stage and cameras after the stunt he pulled.
I’ve always ❤️ Anthony Hopkins

So sad that Will's actions took the special moments away from people on that night, such as this legend.
He deserves a standing ovation for this speech. 👏
Will Smith, what a hypocrite. That smile should be slapped of wills face!!!
Anthony Hopkins...great actor....and roaster for Will Smith...
The greatest shit is that they thought he was complimenting 😂🤣
not "they", only one person was thinking that
Sir Anthony Hopkins is legand. No other words needed.
All I can think of is, “Hello, Clarice “.
A giant of the stage and screen who I hope can be with us for many years to come. His ability to use words with that remarkable voice coming from a face so expressive that he can stop and watch for a moment and say more with that look than many say with hundreds of words. I salute you.
Peace & love & quiet 🤣🤣
he is so smart men, beyond us and universe
And that came from Hannibal lecter
Lies again? Disgrace America
I feel bad for all of us. It was a slap to see an actor like Will lose his respect.
Not the best pun to come out of this
Its so good to see Judy Dench in the audience. Was Daniel Craig present?
Will was overly cheerful throughout that night, I think to veil his embarrassment
He SHOULD be embarrassed. But, I swear, the cajones on that guy ... I don't think he's dumb, so he just must be arrogant and misguided, perhaps a bit mental.
