Jada Pinkett Smith ‘Breaks’ Will At The ‘Red Table’ (Video)
I wonder how this ep came to be. I mean, I believe Jada was getting numbers and moving her own ship with her own steam. And while the ‘why’ behind husband Will saying ‘yes’ to a sit-down is a no-brainer, it doesn’t seem to be needed. Perhaps that makes it a bit more authentic: They/Will did not have to do this. But man, did he (one of the best)! Just watch. And these are just ‘outtakes’ (full episode embedded after the jump).
Following months of “Red Table Talk†shooting in their house, Jada Pinkett Smith invites Will on as a guest and he finally realizes the scope of her massive TV show.
Even posted it to his channel.
(Full disclosure: ‘Sesquipedalian’ is one of my favorite five-dollar words!)

Will Smith Finally Makes ‘The Jump’… Out of a Helicopter! (Video)
Oh! Got it. That last jump (here) was just for ‘practice’ huh? THIS is the long-awaited big jump… into the Grand Canyon… from a helicopter #WillSmithTheJump #BigWillieStyle
Will Smith’s First Time Bungee Jumping (Video)
Mannnn!
I’m saying though… Can Will at least LOOK a bit nervous? Dude runs through challenges like a kid who’s never even skinned a knee. Maybe that’s the key to his seeming invincibility when he takes on these ‘fun’ life challenges: He channels childlike wonder and thrill at how awesome the end will be; giving NO power to the travails of getting the ‘means’ (Big Willie gots BREAD) or the time spent in the meantime (don’t dwell, just do)!

Will Smith taught his wife Jada’s brother (Caleeb Pinkett) to make a movie. Like a life course. First on the agenda… get a six-pack!!
(Even if you don’t want six-pack abs, or to be a scriptwriter or filmmaker, WATCH this. It’s deep! Fun, but deep.)

Will Smith Tells The Story Of How He Became ‘The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’ (Video)
Now this is a story all about how
My life got flipped turned upside down
And I’d like to take a minute, just sit right there
I’ll tell you how I became the
…The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air
Should have started by hollering “REEEEMIIIX!” Check out the real story of how Fresh Prince (Mr. I’m The Rapper, not actor) became Will the TV star of “The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air.” Watch above and really realize how the show theme’s lyrics applied to his life. Enjoyable and enlightening, especially if you were watching when the show was originally aired.
Will Smith Tells Jimmy Kimmel How Being ‘The Fresh Prince’ Got Him Home One Time (Video)
Popular Hip-Hop icon turned movie mogul Will Smith fell through Jimmy Kimmel’s set and onto his couch to talk about “Collateral Beauty” (in theaters Christmas Day)… oh, and that time a fan let him hold some gas money. Yeah. You read right! Check out the clip above. More after the jump; including the scoop on “Bad Boys 3.”
Suicide Squad (Final Trailer)
Okay.
So we have had a Blitz Trailer, International Trailer, Official Trailer, and we started with a mf’n Comic-Con Trailer for “Suicide Squad”… Message to DC movie-making powers that be… This better live up to the hype. Two years of “Superman v. Batman” build-up and many thought the movie was meh at best.
Wait ’til “Suicide Squad” though. That’s what we’re all thinking. And we are hoping it will be worth the wait. One final trailer. Come on August!
Suicide Squad (Blitz Trailer)
Oh yeah. It’s about time to end all the talk. Time-time-time for some action – “Suicide Squad” style! The latest tease from the WB Studios is called a Blitz Trailer. Whatever. Hurry up August 5, 2016.
Suicide Squad (International Trailer)
“Suicide Squad” is hitting U.S. movie goers in the head with the spiked bat come August 2016. Prediction. Scratch that. FACTS! And as you can see, this comic-gone-TV-gone-action-movie mega-cast epic is already an international event (leading up to and through its September 2016 release to the rest of the world).
Interesting factoid to chew on before you digest the new trailer: Harley Quinn is NOT originally a DC comic book character. She is a TV creation, “born” on the Batman: The Animated Series cartoon from the 1990s. Now she here! Now the whole f#cking team here, yeah!
Suicide Squad (Official Trailer)
We’re bad guys. It’s what we do!
DC is officially going at theater screens harder than ever. Proof positive of that above with this second trailer dropped for “Suicide Squad” (the one we posted from Comic Con was the first look; and this is the Official one). You gotta watch the whole thing… which won’t be a problem, because “Bohemian Rhapsody” music will hold you captive all the way through the crazy guitar break (when, of course, sh!t in the clip goes CRAZY, too)! This is going to be the sickest bestest anti-hero comic hero movie… maybe ever. Wow.
(Will Smith as Deadshot. Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn…work that ‘bat’ girl. And Jared Leto doing Joker incredibly. Yeah, get the tickets August 5, 2016!)
Will Smith Speaks On Getting Back To Making Music, His Family, and Upcoming Tour With DJ Jazzy Jeff (Video)
Ten years since Will Smith has been making music. Yep, sounds about right. Been busy with other stuff – being a spouse, a dad, a box office BEAST. But now, we get new music from the vet, Willy From Philly (yeah, that name just happened).
Watch above as Will talks about what he has learned from his kids – going after life with reckless abandon and NO FEAR of failure! And there is that “Suicide Squad” movie and a forthcoming reunion tour with DJ Jazzy Jeff next Summer…talking about that, too.
Concussion (Trailer)
Uh oh NFL… The League must be on the ‘naughty’ list because, on Christmas Day, it gets a theatrical lump of coal staffing Will Smith. Check out this trailer for “Concussion” in which Will’s character demands that The League ‘tell the truth’ about what the repeated head trauma at the core of the ultimate collision sport (American football) does to its players. Also starring in the film: Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Alec Baldwin, Luke Wilson, Paul Reiser and Albert Brooks.
Will Smith stars in a dramatic thriller based on the incredible true David vs. Goliath story of Dr. Bennet Omalu, the brilliant forensic neuropathologist who made the first discovery of CTE, a football-related brain trauma, in a pro player.

Suicide Squad (Comic-Con Trailer)
Dude! August 5, 2016 like whoa!! DC will have the theaters jumping with this “Suicide Squad” movie.
Say what? Sure it’s over a year from now, but time will fly; and it will be worth the wait. Just check out the trailer above. It starts with dark ops orchestrator, administrator and government nightmare-maker Amanda Waller (played by Viola Davis) talking with [gotta be] General Eiling about giving the worst of the worst super-villains one last shot at redemption… her way… going on her missions. It’s what she does (Google her DC character; she’s a BEAST and some other b-words hahaha). Of course, Batman and Superman wouldn’t be happy with her moves; but they never are (seriously, Google her).
Well… they have their own thing popping in 2016 though. Whew! DC is going HARD in the theaters next year, huh?
Then peep the cast (see Will Smith in there?) picked to play these degenerates-turned-sorta-heroes.
Will Smith To Star in ‘Focus’ (Trailer)
“There’s two kinds of people in this world. There’re hammers and nails… You decide which one you wanna be.”
Will Smith is a box office beast! Looks like he’s got another smash showing you why? This “Focus” takes the big-risk-big-rewards-big-fails paradigm and ramps it up to 10. Delicious-looking eye candy / rookie con-artist trying to run Big Willie Style with (or over?) the crew.
Will Smith stars as Nicky, a seasoned master of misdirection who becomes romantically involved with novice con artist Jess (Margot Robbie). As he’s teaching her the tricks of the trade, she gets too close for comfort and he abruptly breaks it off. Three years later, the former flame—now an accomplished femme fatale—shows up in Buenos Aires in the middle of the high stakes racecar circuit. In the midst of Nicky’s latest, very dangerous scheme, she throws his plans for a loop…and the consummate con man off his game.
Live From Las Vegas: Will Smith And DJ Jazzy Jeff Perform “Summertime†(Video)
Will Smith aka The Fresh Prince with another surprise on-the-spot performance! It’s summertime… Right, so they did “Summertime” … big up’d his son and let the ladies know the ab work is still being done. Like grown folk spring break on stage. Hip-Hop’s true blue friends (Will and Jeff) still doing it live (30 years strong)! DJ Jazzy Jeff, drums please!! Enjoy the show.
JJFP 4Eva…30 Year of Rocking!!! And we’re Nowhere Near Done!! #jjfp #vinyldestination #vegas http://t.co/EoL2eHyDfz

Vinyl Destination | Ep. 12 ‘The Silent Disco’ On Season 2 With The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff (Video)
Episode 12… something familiar about it… Oh! On this ep Jeff and the crew jump the big pond from LA to the UK to do a surprise show on the Graham Norton Show. London with DJ Jazzy Jeff putting the perfect spin on a performance by… longtime partner Will Smith! We posted the surprise treat they gave the crowd there here.
There is much more – LA to London to Vegas in record time. And they their way to Tennessee. Some true southern fried chicken plates?
And now Dayne Jordan is embedded with the crew? Cool, cool.
And … WTF … a ‘Silent Disco’? %Party I’m in! Where are my headphones? That looked like mad fun! So much wildin’ and little time for rest. But enough of my jibba-jabba, ride out to Vinyl Destination above!
