the academy finally got one right.



Thank you sweet MOSES for this incredible win last night. I didn't even watch the Academy Awards because my friends were too busy playing halo but I waited patiently to find out whether or not the Academy was going to keep their act together long enough to at least award Heath Ledger's family for his incredible performance in this past summers' The Dark Knight, which in spite of some of its' major pitfalls was still arguably one of the best films that came out during the summer of 2008. Usually the Academy ends up giving the award to someone whose performance was not as good and there for they feel justified that the other contenders will be back again year after year to prove just how talented they really are. I fail to see the logic in this but that's for another post. I'm just happy that after severely deteriorating during the filming of this role at least Ledger's family was able to see his hard work pay off.
