Writer's Block: A Posthumous Oscar for Joker?
No. Honestly.
I know people are upset that he's not here on earth with us, and I understand that. But no, just because he's dead doesn't mean he deserves an Oscar. I haven't seen The Dark Knight, and don't intend to, but I'm sure his performance, while probably good, isn't Oscar-worthy. I'm sorry he's dead. But that doesn't mean that because he's dead he deserves a top-notch award that could go to someone else who gave an incredible performance.
He plays the Joker. Come on now, people.
If he does get the Oscar, I'll be ticked. End of story.
