Just wondering what people’s thoughts are on this one. I’m torn.

On one hand he is free to wear what he wants and feels comfortable in to wherever he wishes however, it also seems disrespectful to show such contempt to the Oscars and, to his colleagues who have all bothered to make a huge effor

It was definitely set up. And obviously so. These men can act. And there was no acting going on there, the only conclusion I can draw is because they didn’t want to.

Why are you SHOUTING, OP?
It's the faily dail, so so very unlikely to be either true or as dramatic as their headlines like to suggest. So no urgency to share or to shout about it!

Yes, it was.

That's how I interpreted it!

SmellyDogFatCat · 03/03/2025 06:38

Sandler was wearing a mic. You can hear it as it gets rubbed by his clothes as he moves. It was a skit.

Balloonney · 03/03/2025 06:39

Of course it was scripted!

Cluckycluck · 03/03/2025 06:41

It's a bit!

Adam and Conan are good friends and have been since their SNL days.

eyeeyeeyeeyeeye · 03/03/2025 06:43

lol saw this on the news just making out it was serious. Clearly a pisstake of the disgusting scenes in the Oval Office. Fair play to them I say ! 🇺🇦

Princessconsuelabananahammock9 · 03/03/2025 06:44

It was a joke about Trump.

saraclara · 03/03/2025 06:48

I can't believe anyone thought that was real 🤣

That's nuts. If course it was scripted. He was miked up, he was on an aisle seat, the cameras were weak to find him, and he's laughing from the very beginning. How anyone could think he was genuinely angry, beggars belief.

Petuniaspetal · 03/03/2025 06:51

Call me cynical but the link to 'the mail' will get alot of inquisitive hits now and even the link shows it wasn't a serious ' storm out' . Once I saw the headline I went no further. I will get my news elsewhere.

haufbiskiy · 03/03/2025 06:56

It was completely scripted however the “script” was a bit weird since it had Adam sandler kicking off rather than the host going ballistic and bullying him out. It made it seem like they were supporting the “trump” side of the argument not the Zelensky side which is I suspect why it got muted laughter.

Goody2ShoesAndTheFilthyBeast · 03/03/2025 06:58

I went to find it.
Yes, that was definitely not an actual argument.

How can OP not see that this is a skit??And a clever one at that. Good grief! No wonder the world is the way it is…

SALaw · 03/03/2025 07:09

My thoughts are that anyone that thought it was anything other than a rehearsed skit is hard of thinking.

BiggerBoat1 · 03/03/2025 07:09

Not clicking on the Mail, but it was clearly scripted and clearly a dig at Trump.

How unusual for the Mail to wind people up with misinformation…..

WeirdyBeardyMarrowBabyLady · 03/03/2025 07:10

Was that the extent of Trump/Vance criticism? Did anyone else say or do anything by way of protest or satire? If not then shame on them tbh.

Maestoso · 03/03/2025 07:12

He didn't "STORM" anywhere. Very apposite. It was well done by all three.

Yes, especially with the ref to the alleged veiled threat of Nosferatu on the basketball team

SongoftheSpoon · 03/03/2025 07:20

It was a riff on the Zelenskyy “what are you wearing?” exchange. Perhaps a bit subtle !

oakleaffy · 03/03/2025 07:28

An obvious Ukraine supporting Zelensky reference with gold and blue. 👍

PlanningTowns · 03/03/2025 07:38

what a wonderful subtle and clever way to make a point. Bonus points for it going over the Daily Fails head. Adam, Conan and Timothee win!

Goody2ShoesAndTheFilthyBeast · 03/03/2025 07:41

As an aside. When did a sketch become a skit?
Or are sketch and skit different things?

dottiehens · 03/03/2025 07:43

I have not seen this anywhere in the highlights of the light. However, people are commenting on canard, banana and maize Chalamet.

ImmediateReaction · 03/03/2025 07:50

I've watched the interaction, he didn't storm out, he was enjoying it.
