Description:

Dark Knight’s success was expected, and if you were lucky enough to see the movie you probably are still experiencing the after effects of the late Heath Ledger’s terrifying performance as the “Joker”. An Oscar nomination is inevitable for Ledger and I think it is safe (and sad) to say that he is the James Dean of this generation.

Only one star has won an Oscar from beyond the grave (Peter Finch, Network in '76) so we shall see if the statue will go to Heath early next year. I have not read one bad review of Ledger… even The New Yorker gave him a rave (and that says a lot). With all due respect, this is one hellava way to go out.

yes he should did a great job in the movie he deserve it!

Absolutely!He is so attractive!
I think his performance is better than Jack.Nicoleson.

He was, is, and will be the best ever ! He was more than brilliant, and this Oscar belongs to him, there shouldn't be a doubt!!! RIP Heath, we will never forget u =((

Heath Ledger is the best Joker ever!!!! I really hope he wins 'cause he deserves it!

Yes! he definitely deserves that oscar because he was not only a great actor but also a great husband, friend and father {most importantly}. His legacy should be passed down and he should never be forgotten

I was convinced that the Joker was an abused child turned psychotic killer. And the bits of humor made you want to like him. If that isn't brilliance, I don't know what is. His daughter needs to know that her father deserves an award for his performance despite his untimely death.

He deserves the oscar, he was more terrifying than Penny wise, i mean it, that was not Heath Leadger on screen, Was The Joker.

He needs one. His acting was spectaculatar. If he doesn't get one, show me the act that does! ♥

AND THE OSCAR GOES TO... HEATH LEDGER!!!!!!!!!
GIVE IT TO HIM, HE'S THE BEST!!!!!!!

Total Oscar Content. Stop thinking Oscar Committee, this one definitely belongs to him... any doubts?

Absolutely and Oscar! No doubt about it. he was BRILLIANT! NO One could ever matcg his performance.

Joker rulz. He is the best

Joker the scary deserves it...give it to him....honour him...

HEATH SHOULD DEFINITELY WIN AN OSCAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joker the scary deserves it...give it to him....honour him...

I've always liked Heath Ledger, since the days of '10 things I hate about you'. He was a wonderful actor and his last role as "The Joker" in Dark Knight was incredibly well played! I couldn't believe he acted so mean & annoying-- but I failed to hate his character in the movie. Heath surely deserves an Oscar!! My man!! Love u always! Rest in Peace!

we love you HEATH LEDGER i will miss you
QUE GRANDIOSO ACTOR ES UNA LASTIMA QUE YA NO ESTE AQUI AUN NO LO PUEDO CREER SIEMPRE QUE VEO SUS FOTOS ME PARECE QUE ESTUVIERA VIVO AUN PERO COMO DICEN LAS COSAS BUENAS NO DURAN PERO NOS DEJO SU VIDA Y SU OBRA ADEMAS DE SU FUERZA OJALA CON NUESTRA AYUDA GANE EL OSCAR Y SEA PARTE DE LA HISTORIA EN EL CINE MUNDIAL BESOS....

Definitivamente una actuación increíble y majestuosa de este gran actor que sin duda se roba el protagonismo.

we love you HEATH LEDGER Rest in Peace we miss you

Su actuación fue simplemente ASOMBROSA, no e visto a ningún otro actor interpretar un papel de la manera en que el lo hizo con el Joker, por supuesto que se merece ese Oscar.

perdimos a uno de los mejores actores.. realmente se merece el oscar.

te vamos a estrañar heath!!!

this performance is the best representation that i have ever seen talking about the joker nobody will act this guy in this way again.EDWIN SOLANO CAMACHO CED 1-1111-0803 COSTA RICA

REST IN PEACE

nothing to say just excellent!!! he rules

nothing to say just excellent!!! he rules

He must get it. Such sadistic performance i haven't seen since Jack Nicholson's role in Shining. Bryan Brown, Russell Crowe and Heath are the best Australian actors there is. Brown do the right job in the past. Russell got his oscar and 2 other oscar nominations. Now is Heath's turn to get one. This is his last chance

in my opinion best performance, i have ever seen, i enjoyed it so much :)

he was so amasing; i actually forgot it was him on the screen. he was beyond amasing.. outstanding. deffinetly deserves an oscar. he totally deserves it. & i also think they shouldnt cast a joker in the next batman if they even do one. like it could be mark of respect for heath if they let him be the last joker. R.I.P Heath. (LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL)

How can he not win it?
He was the joker, he didnt just play it, he delved so far into the character and everytime i watch the film, i wait for him to come on the screen because for me they are the best parts.

Rest in peace, Heath Ledger.
