Good morning Heathens :)

EnnisJack is my favorite fictional(ish) character of all time (though I am fond of Mary Poppins) and Brokeback Mountain my favorite film but Heath is just as worthy of a win for TDK as he was for BbM. Recognition of him for his performance as the Joker should not, IMO, be in any way equated to BbM.
TDK doesn't even exist in the same dimension as BbM for me but Heath was a wonder.

You do have a point here. I agree with everything you said, except maybe for the first sentence. I also think his performance as the Joker was oscar-worthy, so logically they should give it to him. It's not that I wouldn't root for him (you betcha I would!).
But my feeling still says too late :-\

I agree with it being too late, for me anyway.There is no doubt his performance in TDK was amazing and Oscar worthy in its own right.
I have read so much about Heath wanting the recognition of his peers.It was one of the things that kept him choosing such diverse and undoubtedly difficult roles.It would have been so good for him to be awarded in his lifetime.
The money and fame were not things that interested him. He wanted recognition, but only for his acting.
My heart aches when I realise he never really got that in his lifetime.
, it would be nice for Matilda to have and realise just how amazing her dady was.

Well, on that note here's another new For Your Consideration ad - and I guess both you and I can appreciate the picture they chose to go with here, Chrissi....
(Although, in all honesty I suspect this is a mock-up and a joke and not a real FYC ad - given the category they're promoting him in! I'm posting it anyway 'cause the Joker's nurse was the best psycho movie nurse ever!)
( This image gives me an intense need to go seriously brush my teeth! )

Thanks for the pic and the laughs Mikaela. Yup, must be a fake FYC ad. But good.
Yup, best psycho nurse ever. I went googling and found some more Joker-Nurse pics.
Technically, this one doesn't belong on HHH (or does it?), but I like the caption, so here goes:
