But all Im saying is this performance isnt one nowhere near as good as the godfather, dogday afternoon, there will be blood, its just the joker.
Just the Joker? That is ridiculous. The Joker is one of the most iconic villains in American fiction.

As for the Academy, look no further than the 2008 awards when Zodiac got completely snubbed. Not a single nomination. That movie was great on many levels. I expected it to get perhaps an acting nomination (Downey Jr. and Ruffalo were great) and some technical award nominations. But it got no nominations. Zilch. Norbit even got a nomination (makeup).
