You Get What You Deserve
The Oscars had some surprises to be sure. "Parasite" winning Best Picture was a history maker, gaining steam as the show plugged along.
But there were some winners that were foreseen.
And the most predictable were the acting awards. Brad Pitt. Laura Dern. Renee Zellweger.
And the most celebrated performance from not only comic book fans and the ones curious of it's dark retelling but of regular mainstream film fans...Joaquin Phoenix as The Joker.
Seeing this performance in the theater was something to behold. Chilling, disturbing, but always mesmerizing, Mr. Phoenix brought a feverish intensity to the iconic role...reimagined for old and new fans.
He is now forever linked with Heath Ledger as winning the award for the same role.
The Joker was always Batman's greatest nemesis. And slowly became something all will come to recognize.
One of the greatest villains of all time. In any genre.
Mr. Phoenix...you got what you deserved. Congratulations.

Another Plea To The Academy...Godzilla Minus One
I'm a huge fan of horror, as some may have picked up on. Classic horror has always been my jam. From the great Universal Monsters era of the 1930's and '40's to the Hammer Studios horror of the late '50's. And, of course the movie monster giants like King Kong and Godzilla. The films never really frightened me but I was riveted by the characters and spooky ambience. And even though modern moviemakers don't seem to know what to do with these legendary characters, they still seem to have some juice in them. Which is impressive in this social media led, short attention span generation that consumes content these days. But with current releases like "The Last Voyage of the Demeter," which I thought was fantastic but didn't light the box office on fire, I was wondering if these classic properties had the same kind of relevance that they had back in the day. They've been trying for years now to resurrect the Universal Monsters Universe to no ava...
