.judyberman: The 2022 Oscars were a glittering Disney commercial, tarnished by one too-real moment
? Instead, although I found Hall’s thirsty act winning and Schumer was wise to keep her engagement with the Smith ordeal minimal , they skimmed the surface, almost always erring toward noncontroversial humor. Aaron Sorkin is too self-serious, Lady Gaga and Jared Leto did goofy accents for, Leonardo DiCaprio keeps getting older but his girlfriends stay the same age—we’d heard better versions of these jokes before.
Unfortunately, these pure moments were overshadowed by a deluge of Disney marketing. When you remember that the megacorp owns not just ABC, the network that aired the ceremony, but also Hulu, Marvel, Pixar, and more, then the entire pre-Smith night starts to look like one big advertisement. Commercial breaks overflowed with plugs for the Disney empire’s films, TV shows, and platforms.
Regardless of whether his anger was warranted, Smith upstaged every award and segment that came after Rock’s presentation. Questlove’s victory,, an In Memoriam segment that paid tribute to lost legends like Sidney Poitier and Betty White—they all got steamrolled by a conflict between two guys who really should’ve waited to settle their differences backstage.
