If I were his parents and sister I would have tried
to make the speash as close to what heath would have said as possible it seamed kind of impersonal to me. But I,m soooo happy for heath dead or alive the oscar would have gone to him
I feel sorry for the other people who were nominated. They pretty much came to the oscars knowing that they werent going to win. I loved Heath Ledgers joker and im glad he won.
i love how even though his parents have been divorced for years, his father still shows such respect for his mother as they made their way to the stage to accept the award and you can see they are still a solid unit as parents. the other thing i noticed was how heath shared the same characteristic with his father of scratching his ear when nervous...cute!
"ps.was i the onli 1 that realized every celeb in the audience was bought to break out in tears WOW "
when they did the tribute to those in the industry who passed away in the past year, remember that Queen Latifah did say and i'm paraphrasing here "...to us, they were friends and collegues..."
That was the point of me saying that to pin point how moving his win was not say like "o they were about to cry its not that serious" i meant it like wow its touching so as far as showing respect like the audience did ..i feel thats wat i was doing i think u took wat i said as negative instead of how i meant it!!
Man , I wish Robert Downey Jr5. didnt have to compete this year with heath they are both awesome and they both deserve an oscar for achieving a comic book adaptation and a stupidly funny comedy film to figure in the ceremony.
That was such an emotional speech Heath Ledger's family gave. I almost cried. He deserved his oscar for the extraordinary performance he gave as the Joker in "The Dark Knight". May God grant him everlasting peace.
It makes me laugh when I hear people saying that he wouldnt have been nominated if he were alive. That's bullshit. He was absolutely phenomenal as the Joker.
I've seen Tropic Thunder with Robert Downey Jr's performance he didn't play an african american, he became the one.
I would have loved it if he won but he just happen to compete with heath.. heath is awesome as well. IMO heath should be under the best actor category he owned TDK.
someone please tell me what the fuck Slumdog Millionaire is? Ive never even heard of it.Has anyone else? Why does the Academy always have to honor a dramatic film that few have ever seen.Its gotten so pathetic that Hugh Jackson was allowed to make fun of them by saying "Whats wrong with honoring a movie that people have seen?" lol.
Slumdog Millionaire is a lovestory/musical. Not some Highschool Musical shit, It's rated R, and a really good movie, and i think what everyone is so hyped about is because it was originally supposed to come out on DVD only, and turned out to be simply superb
Batman came out on my birthday and my brother-in-law and sis took me to go see it, first show... I was BLOWN AWAY!
Not only dud I name Heath Ledger as one of my favorite actors before he died. But I knew that there was so much mystery inside of him as an actor. May his spirit rest in peace. And may his family have peace in their lives and in Matilda's.
Heath (from heaven)-Here it comes...YES I WIN! Thank you Academy! I put so much effort in the roles that I played while I was still alive! I knew the Joker would be the perfect role for me because its the role that can help entertain the fans and thus I gave it my best so I could really put on a show for the people I love! THANK YOU for recognizing and acknowledging my efforts! I miss you guys down there and I hope I made you proud as the Joker!
Thank you, Heath Ledger. Because of you and the rest of the cast and crew for TDK -comic book films have advanced from mere popcorn films to movies that audiances take seriously. May you live in the memory of Matilda forever.
It's just so sad. He was such an amazing actor, and it really was such a shame, because even though Ennis Del Mar and the Joker were two amazing performances from him, he had SO MUCH potential. Oh my God, he was such an inspiration to me, and even though i didn't know him personally, i felt like i knew him through his performances. That's why i still can't get over his death. Family and friends of Heath, if you see this, my deepest, deepest sympathies are with you.
Heath was the best actor i ever known not just because of his brilliant work but also for his huge heart for everything hey worked for hey put his soul and love in every role hey is my number one insperation so sade that hey never could have gotten the oscar himsellf but amazing that hollywood did indeed give him one for his lovley mathilda R.I.P.) BTW sorry for my bad english:p.
Cheescake if i ever find u...u'll be regretting every damn thing u said..!! I'll make u feel the pain everyone els is feeling...childish immature punk!
I am not a Heath fan and I think his Joker is somewhat inspired by Jeff Goldblum in The Fly. But I really think he was so brilliant in Brokeback Mountain. A very difficult role. So I believe he is a brilliant actor and he deserves this award.
did you also stop to think that maybe his family may see this comment you left? Be grateful you are not in their shoes, they have lost a son, a brother and most importantly a Father, no child should grow up with out their daddy, and now Matilda sadly has too, so please next time keep your rude, uncalled for, and hateful words to yourself next time. We Heath Ledger fans are very protective of him, and will stand up for him against people like you everytime, and we'll come out on top!!!!!
cheesecake, your response to this video clearly shows how childish, rude, and mean spirited person you are your a horrible person for that comment, and I believe you did it just to get a reaction out of us Heath Ledger fans...His performance was brilliant, to have taken on a role previously played by a hollywood icon, those were big shoes for him to fill, Heath stretched those shoes and made the character his own, and is very deserving of this award..
Cheesecake you are intitled to your opinion but why did u watch the clip if you don't like Heath. you have to know that Ledger's fans are very pertective of him and don't like people bad mouthing him. In my opinion he is one of the greatest actor's ever.
id like to make a remark to cheesecake1222...HOW CAN YOU SAY SUCH A THING THAT YOU ARE GLAD THAT HE IS DEAD..ppl make mistakes and do things and either learn or die and yes he did die and may he rest in peace but its not right for you to say such a thing...HE HAS A LITTLE DAUGHTER BEAUTIFUL MATILDA...HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT ABOUT HER DADDY THAT SHE MISSES SO MUCH...
RIP heath ledger....respect in peace. u did it but u didnt see it or recieve it cos u faded away in your dark night................perhaps u r still performin a trick on us like the joker u r. good bye ledger.
I love the way they presented the supporting roles. It celebrates not only the works of this years nominees, or even the winner, but also to honor previous winners of the award...
It also looks pretty cool when they walk out from behind a big photo of them.... I soooo gotta try that one day..LOL
Heath was an amazing actor, he definitely deserved the Oscar. seeing his family speak as they accepted the Oscar on his behalf was really moving, there wasn't a dry eye in the house.
Thanks for posting this. I really wanted to see this but i dont have abc channel. lol. so thank you so much. ever since i saw his performance i knew he was going to win because in my opinion its one of the best performances i have ever seen in my life n I have seen a lot of movies.
R.I.P Heath Ledger. Im Sure hes happy wherever he is.
It's so nice and very touching. I started to cry a little bit. Heath was such a great actor and he really did decerved this award! We will always remember him!!! <3
It's just a shame that Heath's role as the Joker was a supporting role, because he would of easily won the Best Actor award if his Charactor was the lead of The Dark Knight.
Out of all the movies I watched in the last10 years, the Joker charactor is by far the most memorable, and that's very impressive.
Not only did we lose Heath, but we lost the Joker, and many other fantastic roles that he could of stared in as well.
In some peoples eyes, a best supporting actor...in my eyes, one of the GREATEST actors. Not just for this role, but for his others, and the person he was off screen. A true actor, not a celebrity. Long over due, but too late....not given but earned by a great actor, person, and father. R.I.P Heath and thank you.
i watched it at 3AM to 7AM and i must tell i cried when heath ledger won! it was the best moment in the whole show. and i knew he was going to win - who else? :D love him now and forever, RIP Heath.
who else could have won it, how could he lose?
