ARMY OF THE DEAD Wins The #OscarFanFavorite Award... Oh, & Will Smith Slaps Chris Rock In The Face!

We figured this might be the outcome, and sure enough, Zack Snyder's legions of fans have voted Netflix's Army of the Dead the most popular movie of the year at the 94th Academy Awards.

Zack Snyder's Justice League was not eligible for the fan-favorite vote at this year's Academy Awards, but the filmmaker's legions of devotees still found a way to pay tribute to their lord and saviour by pouring all of their votes into Army of the Dead.

Even though Spider-Man: No Way Home seemed a shoo-in to win when this controversial category was first announced, Netflix's zombie movie ended up coming in at #1 over Cinderella, Minamata, No Way Home. and tick, tick... BOOM!

This may not have been particularly shocking, but something happened during the show that most definitely was!

As you'll no doubt have seen or at least heard about by now, Will Smith rose from his seat and slapped Chris Rock in the face after he made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith's hair. The sound cut out (you can hear the uncensored version below) as Smith sat back down and yelled, "keep my wife's name out your f*cking mouth."

Jane Campion just won Best Director for The Power of The Dog, so things are beginning to wind down. We'll update once the show is over, but for now, let us know what you make of this craziness in the comments section.
