  i agree glenn..


  why does NO ONE consider that Ledger OD'd because he voluntarily CHOSE to 
consume a literal pharmacy of pills that caused his death? what a moron. does 
anyone remember the initial stories talking about the menagerie of drugs found 
at his apt? why reward someone for that? i guess it's all very PC and gives 
good face to the Academy. he WON because he OD's and was so young--period. 


   it isnt as tho he died of terminal cancer or from a heart attack, prior to 
the awards, like peter finch did.

    I liked TDK.  I didn't fall all over myself in praise of it but it was 
certainly a movie I'd watch again.  As to Heath Ledger.  Great performance but 
I don't think he'd have won if he hadn't died young.

    My 2 cents...

      Yes.

      But then again, I'm one of the simpletons who actually liked The Dark
      Knight.
      Apparently no one else in MoPo land did.
