Why did this hack get an Oscar...

Because he can put in very good performance's, and the films he tends to are safe roles which the academy loves

 

[Timedog]

He doesn't want to be Joker anymore.

What a tit.

I haven't seen suicide squad, all I've seen of his joker is from trailers. Now I know he is a very good actor I am not going to lie and yeah it must be annoying when your work gets cut but to day about the death thing?

I always thought Heath Ledger was a pretty poor actor. He seemed to play very safe characters in pretty poor films. His death gave a lot of publicity onto his role as the Joker, but had he been alive he would have still got critical acclaim.

His joker was an amazing performance, it was Oscar worthy and that one performance is a curse to everyone who will ever play the Joker again as everyone will always remember Ledgers performance.

Leto you may have been an excellent joker, but don't try and make this about getting more acclaim once you die, its crass and shows you to be a whiny little c**t.

PS
Tilda Swindon as a joker? She could play a very interesting one. The idea of an androgynous looking joker would be very different and cool.

Still want to see them try a new Riddler

Brokeback was safe?

Why did this hack get an Oscar...

To call a person that is the lead singer of a very successful world-renowned music band that can act good enough people actually felt he's worthy for an Oscar a "hack"...

Really now.

Why does him being in a band has anything to do with his acting chops?

 

[SwolBro]

that Oscar went to this dudes head

Well, I was commenting more about JL is one heck of a talented dude, and to call a person like that a "hack" like he's a good no-talent nobody is just stupid.

 

[VanWinkle]

I feel really bad for the guy. The point is, he put his ALL into the role and it got cut to practically nothing. Of course he's sad about it. I don't get where all of this hate for him comes from.

 

[Discotheque]

Confession time, I never hated Colin Farrell. To be fair I have no idea how the comic counterpart should be portrayed, but it was a fun, albeit campy performance

he was pretty funny in that movie. god damn though you could really tell he was a big cokehead during that period.
