I hope Slumdog millionaire sweeps. That button movie was so retarded and unoriginal. And Rourke is NOT an actor, he's just an asshole caught on film. 🙂

explain. dunno much about him

He was supposed to be the next DeNiro, but his personal life got in the way and he burned out super early. He kind of disappeared for 2 decades.

And he's a damn fine actor. He deserves this one more than many who have won in the past.

Slumdog will sweep, which is kind of sad. a lot of "low-rent" nominations this year 🙁 Rather mediocre year for the movies.

Go bet 20 bucks on Ledger to win, you can win a DOLLAR, then your weekend will be saved.

the academy awards are so self important that it wouldnt surprise me if he didn't win.

Not more-so than the Grammy's. Those awards are nothing more than record companies patting themselves on the back for yet another year of plunging the world of music further into the pits of mediocrity.

I don't think ledger was good enough to win. but considering he died and everyone is trying to show how much they care for him he is going to win.

but i want to see the wrestler. a friend got to see and said it was great.
I thought that also until i actually saw the film.
Ledger was brilliant!
He really does deserve it dead or alive IMO.

The Wrester was a good film and im glad Rourke has made a "comeback" if you wanna call it that.
But his performance in it wasnt Oscar worthy IMO, nor was the film that great.
Neither was Button, it was a good film also, just not GREAT.

What movies should have taken their place?

The Wrestler was a much better movie than Dark Knight and Rourke acted much better than Heath. Dark Knight is just another overrated fanboi movie. I'm not saying that the Wrestler was an awesome movie. It was a good movie but not that good either.
 
He did better in a 2 minute car scene from Spun than any actor nominated this year did in their entire fucking career.

At least a straight to DVD movie won the most. So sick of ultra-mainstream garbage being awarded oscars.

Anyway, Oscars are a joke. The people giving them out are the same people taking them. It's the same as letting the gymnasts or figure skaters rate each other in the Olympics. Damn fine performance.
