If he hadn't died he'd still be the viewed as the mediocre actor he always was. Death makes people look at an artist's work with rose-colored glasses.

I think Heath was a fine actor and deserving of his Oscar nominations and Golden Globe win. I was sorry to hear of his untimely demise.

He was fabulous. Who would be his competition for Leading Actor? Robert Downey, Jr. in Ironman for one? Brad Pitt's Benjamin Button came out in time??

Heath is DEAD and GONE in the most ridiculous manner! It is very sad that he died so young in such an ignorant manner, but life goes on. He does not deserve an Oscar just because he is dead. His performance was just not Oscar worthy period!

He was crafty in his performance but I loved Jack Nicholson as well. I don't think The Joker would be easy to portray. I do know what you mean here Mr. Sizemore. But they both had a unique style that was greatly appreciated.
