I don't know the details, someone else might, but there is supposedly a curse on the superman movies since really horrible things keep happening to actors involved on that series (almost all the actors that played superman had something really horrific happen to them) and now its rumoured that the batman series has become cursed since sooo many bad things have been happining to people involved
seriously. a hile ago i was pretty inactive on here, then i started coming on more and now i come on daily, like i used to :-) still the same loving people..just lots of them missing...*tear*
u no, after i watched Dark Knight, i was in my room (my johnny covered room...) and i was thinking about how many people were upset by Heath's death. then i thought about if Johnny died. i was like thoroughly depressed. i wouldn't be going to school. it would be like losing my mom, but in dad form....(i'm VERY close to my mom)
He'll be one of those actors that gets an Honorary Academy Award at like 90 and we'll all still be swooning over him. He'll walk up with his cane and stroke his whiskers and be like, "I remember wayyy back in 03 when I did a little movie called Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Curl," and we'll just giggle at how cute he is senile. Maybe by then he and Vanessa will be actually married.
Johnny's speech (accepting an Honorary Oscar at age 90): Well, I normally hate attending these things. I'm not one for dressing up and being part of the in-crowd. But that is part of my charm, I guess (holds for laughs). I suppose I should thank the people and the roles involved in all my success. Uh, I'd like to start with my common-law wife Vanessa (waves to her in the audience. She's gotten quite fat). Baby, words can't express the way I feel about you. The only way to really make sense of it will be to meet me in the back of the limo on the way out of here.
(Audience reacts by making sexy sounds)
Next are my kids, Lilly and Jack [pretty sure I got that right] and all the grandkids. Vanessa and I told them marriage was just something the "man" invented to keep everybody down, but they didn't listen.
I'd like to thank Tim Burton. If I were a gay man, he'd be first on the list if you know what I mean. (Tim in the audience looks a little embarassed). He gave me my real start by casting me as a guy with funky hair with scissors for hands. It's not until you see your movie parodied in porn, aka "Edward Penis-hands" that you know you've made it big. We've collaborated on several projects over the years: that, Sleepy Hollow, Ed Wood, The Corpse Bride, Willy Wonka, Sweeney Todd... (clears throat and sings) "There was a barber and his wife, and she was beautiful. A foolish barber and his..." hmm, seems I've forgotten what comes next. Who can forget making the incredible remake of "Red Dawn" with him, in which the kids actually lose to the Ruskies? Who can forget making his fourth musical "Make Way for Ducklings" with him? (sighs) Those were good times, Tim. And in every movie, I had the same haircut.
I should mention the roles that got me nominated, but were never quite good enough to win me a legitimate Academy Award. The Academy frowns upon conventional roles and I got this tattoo here that explains how I feel about convention. (lifts up shirt. A huge red heart with the words "F*ck Convention" are inside it in black letters. A sword runs through the heart. He loses his balance, reaches for his cane and recovers) I'm okay!
My first nomination was from Disney's "Pirates of the Caribbean." I was a wily pirate, always one step ahead of everyone else, just like how President Zac Efron is one step ahead of Canada. Those were good times, sucking face with Keira Knightley, beating up Orlando Bloom, trading barbs with Geoffrey Rush.
And then I played a guy who wrote about pirates. That just shows off my range.
Part 2 of Johnny's speech
I was JM Barrie in "Finding Neverland." The challenge there was to act with kids and not seem like a pedophile. I was all for giving them pot, but fortunately Kate Winslet was there to steer me straight. She and I though...(makes smoking gestures with his fingers) I don't remember much else about filming that movie, just that I lost the nomination.
I was nominated a third time for "Sweeney Todd," where I, you know, taught myself to sing, perfected a British accent, had to make a serial killer seem sympathetic, and after all that, I still lost to Daniel Day Lewis who really hasn't done anything good since "The Crucible." But I have no hard feelings. (waves to Day-Lewis. Day-Lewis folds his arms and looks the other way, sulking) Hey, Danny!
But here I am, finally a winner, finally up here, even after performing at the 2017 award show.
(Screen behind him shows he and Cate Blanchett, who is dressed up as Princess Leia, singing "Stairway to Heaven," the caption reading, "Ode to Songs Referenced to in "Almost Famous."😉
Cate was a wonderful woman. I didn't understand the montage we were a part of, but who can resist Zeppelin? Those were the best 10 minutes of my life, or however the hell long that song is.
(Screen cuts to George Clooney and Amy Adams, who is dressed as a giant owl, singing "Tiny Dancer."😉
Yes, that's more of the "Almost Famous" tribute. George is just an okay guy and an okay actor. I know when I filmed Public Enemies 2: Search for Baby Face Nelson. Well, I'd like to thank the Academy, my family, my friends, my fans, and the people of France for my longevitiy, my triumphs, and my happiness. Thank you.
(Sticks his tongue out and makes a peace sign on his way out. He stumbles, but holds out his cane and recovers.)
