If he didn't OD would he have still won that Oscar?

He could still be making kinos today

Nope

He didn't OD, he was killed

>>85120336
No. But he should've

>>85120336
Idris Elba

How was he so bland and boring in every other role yet was genuinely great as the joker, sure its an edgy meme role where everyone can chew the scenery but Leto proved the role itself wasn't enough and even a quality actor like Nicholson was less good in the role.

No fucking way

Imagine if they still gave it to Robert Down Here Jr. anyways for being in blackface

>>85120497
Because everyone thought he was just a typical Hollywood prettyboy and he was typecasted.

>>85120336
>batman
>oscar
no
>>85120497
he was pretty good in some of his early aus stuff like candy.

I think so, yeah. Even if he didn't die, that performance would still be considered one of the greatest and most memorable of any antagonist.

>>85120497
BBM was good

>>85120336
whats the name of his hairstyle?

>>85120630
thats "the last stand" designed by B.Alding in the 1950s

>>85120336

Who else should have?

>>85120412
fpbp

but why

>>85121763
Brolin for being a gayboi

>>85120497
he fucking killed it with the joker

my mind can't even properly imagine heath ledger with no make up doing those voices and mannerisms and stuff

any videos of him without make up doing lines and stuff?

He was THE perfomance from 2008, so yeah. He stole the whole year.

>>85122015
Jews or something

>>85120336
yes, he was very good

>>85120336
That's a power of Joker and DChad. He still would've.

What is the first letter of the word "fourth"?

wew

>>85126604
I'm a different guy, but you have to admit it was pretty funny because technically "fpbp" could be any number post that starts with an "f".

>>85120336
Is that really Heath Ledger? He was only 28 and look at that hair, jesus christ

>>85122062

I can't either. The Joker from TDK just looks like a one time off actor who's never been in anything else

>>85120336
he didnt OD tards, you guys must be out of the loop but he was killed to protect Hitllery.

>>85120336
No, bad not because he didn't deserve it, but because of Oscar politics.

>>85120336
probably not but that's because pretentious oscar people never even consider capeshit.
the joker was a golden performance

>>85120336
>>85120336
Nah. The Joker was great, but it wouldn't have happened.

The postmortem oscar was, IMO, really more awarded for "all the awesome stuff you hypothetically would have done after this, had you lived". Not really for the capeshit.

It would have been probably Josh Brolin for Milk.

I'm just kidding. He would have own the Oscar if he was still alive. The Joker was great.

As meme tier as his Joker became it was still a defining role. Nobody else could have pulled it off, and if TDK wasn't a cape film the performance would be held in higher regard.
But if he were alive he probably would've gotten an Oscar for some future kino instead of TDK.

>>85120618
Its still a shame it didnt win best picture, Heath would have gotten the best actor one too if it wasnt for Philipp Seymour-Hoffman

This, honestly. It's an impressive performance, and he disappears so completely into the character that had I not known, I'd have never even guessed who he was. But the Academy takes a dim view of cape characters in general. They like to limit their accolades for cape films to the more technical aspects of filmmaking.

Like makeup and costume design, for example.

>>85124678
Came here to laugh at the retard who doesn't know "fourth" begins with an "f."

>>85129048
I wonder if Logan will be nominated for anything since it took itself seriously.

>>85122062
Yeah, but you could say the same about Dustin Hoffman as Captain Hook. To this day I can't see Dustin Hoffman when I watch Hook.

Oh, I can. I can even hear him, but it's still a great performance. Hoffman just had the bad luck to have delivered that stellar performance in a movie that the critics just really, really didn't like.

>>85120336
>OD
It was a murder. He was gonna reveal to us things about (them)

>>85129607
Really? Man, I don't see how. If I didn't know any better I'd probably never figure out that was Dustin Hoffman. It's actually more impressive in that case because he isn't wearing a lot of prosthetics or crazy makeup like Ledger does in TDK.

>>85129927
I've watched a lot of his performances and that honker of his gives his voice a rather unique timbre. I don't imagine it's easy for him to disguise it, especially when he's also doing some near-Chaney-tier facial contortions. Hoffman' San amazing actor. He's still impressive even when he's just phoning it in and borrowing from earlier performances.

I'll never forget the first time I watched Outbreak and realized that he was, cans iously or not, channeling the spirit of Tootsie during one of his arguments with Sutherland.
