...And good for him, seriously!

I have grown so tired of the people who say it's only the tragedy that they are awarding.  Implying that had he not died, they wouldn't have nominated him in the first place. It's an awful tragedy, one that we should be sensitive to, but his performance as The Joker was iconic, and deserved to be rewarded.  Pure and simple!

Congratulations to those who made this choice, for recognizing a job well done, regardless of the circumstances surrounding it.

Scott.
