Oscar Slap Flap!

The boring Academy Awards suddenly got more interesting when Will Smith “slapped” Chris Rock – something that looked more like an assault than a slap. Smith was outraged by an rude joke about his wife and has since apologized for assaulting Rock, who is is not pressing charges.  Smith went on to win the Oscar for Best Actor and gave a tearful acceptance/apology speech.

The incident also made editorial cartoons more interesting.  Here is a collection of the best Oscar Slap cartoons!

After the OSCARS Cartoons!

I seem to be the only cartoonist who is disappointed by a Best Picture Oscar going to a foreign language movie with subtitles. I can’t bear subtitles. Here’s my cartoon and some of my other Oscar favorites. And here’s my archive!

There were lots of complaints about a lack of diversity this year. This one is from Pat Bagley.

 

Here’s another diversity cartoon, from Dave Fitzsimmons.

John Darkow was thinking about the Iowa Caucuses as he was watching the Oscars.

Dave Granlund was thinking about impeachment.

Here’s an Oscar evergreen from Nate Beeler.

Conservatives love to hate the Oscars. This evergreen is from Rick McKee.

Academy Award Cartoons

It’s that time of year again, where we celebrate the movies and garnish actors and actresses with awards and accolades for keeping us entertained. Personally, I’m protesting the Oscars this year, not because I don’t enjoy movies or the spectacle of a big awards show. I just think the Presidential race has been much more entertaining.

Don’t agree with me? Check out our Academy Awards cartoon collection, and tell me who’s a better actor – George Clooney or Mitt Romney.
