    I don't think that was really what he was being honored for...I think it was more his acting abilities. Which...if you haven't seen Dark Knight...his acting in that movie is phenomenal. Hands down the best Joker ever IMO.

    A lot of people think that it basically was that role that killed him...he got so absorbed in that role, that his mind actually started cracking to some extents...and drove him to what he did. Who knows if that's really the case...but it's interesting none the less.

    Talent? What he got was a Liberalwood sympathy vote.

    Has anyone noticed how clearly you can see the paint work done on most of the women that came on stage. I think the makeup people needs to change the painting methods as now such shows are filmed and presented in HD.

    Amen Bob!

    Besides which it was ruled an accidental overdose due to poor judgement while being very sick looking for relief from symptoms.

    It was one of the scareriest roles I have ever watched. Everytiime he was on camera, the hair on the back of my neck was standing up!

    Heath was very good in Dark Knight, totally agree with that. I do think his death and the circumstances surrounding the drug use were both unfortunate, and maybe if he had some better, cleaner, friends that it could of been prevented. So while I'm usually a little less sympathetic on these situations, I agree that maybe a lessor degree of judgement is in order.

    Now that dumb b$tch Amy Winehouse is another story all together! Why they are talking rock&roll hall of fame and supporting her as a role model for kids is absolutely insane!
