I’m not sure how/when/why this happened, but at some point in the last decade Will Smith has gone from being the epitome of cool to being a knockoff version of Carlton Banks.
Here be the proof…
Feel free to take a minute to clean your brain matter off of the computer monitor.
Meanwhile, I’m going to go pour a forty on the curb for my fallen childhood.

If someone would have told me 10-15 years ago that this was how Will Smith would turn out, I’d have never believed ’em…who knew?!

Holy cow; you’re right. I shudder to think how Carlton would’ve responded to an alien invasion, either the MIB kind or the Independence Day kind. Ye gods.

Michael Bay is giddy with excitement right now thinking about making those movies…no doubt about it.

I saw Will and Jada at the Celtics game on Monday – they looked pretty hip in their court-side seats, walking over at half-time to talk to Chris Rock and David Spade (all 76s fans, I assume). At least they looked hip from 1/2 mile away in my “Promenade” seats…

I’ll give him partial credit, but I assume it is hard to look anything but hip when you’re sitting court-side for the playoffs.
