@Chris Martin Yeah Keanu is humble and all, but maybe the reason he was smiling is because he was a very close friend of Joaquin's brother who passed away, so he was one of the few people in that room that truly knew what Joaquin felt. He was proud of Joaquin, like an older brother. Look it up.
He's shy, introverted, and he's always been open about his insecurities. And he has gone on record saying he is uncomfortable receiving accolades for his work in movies because he considers the filmmaking process to be a collaborative one. He is far more humble person than people view him as.

@@Wirralspotter They were two different Jokers, at different times in their criminal careers too, and both portrayed their individual Jokers the best way imaginable. Ledger's Joker was more calculating, more criminal, more mastermind. Someone who has been living and breathing anarchy for years and years. Phoenix' Joker was a broken man, spat on by society, dealing with some serious mental issues, pushed to breaking point. Ledger's Joker was part of an action movie, Phoenix' Joker is more of a character study. Ledger's Joker was meant to be dangerous, unpredictable, scary. Phoenix' Joker is in my opinion more unsettling, uncomfortable (in the best way), and calls for far more sympathy because of how the movie is set up. And that brings me to the main point: Ledger's Joker was an antagonist in his movie (even though he was definitely its star), Phoenix' Joker is the protagonist of his movie, so the view is completely different. I don't think they deserve to be compared, they're in a class of their own. I adore both portrayals, each without diminishing my love for the other.
I am grateful to Fox's Marvel Entertainment. If not for the success of Logan and Deadpool, WB might not have allowed to make Joker movie like it is now. They both are better also better, can't deny that.
Jib M firstly, don’t be rude, no need. And yes those films did actually show that superhero movies can be R rated and still pull big numbers at the box office as well as critical success. Thanks.
I used to think The Dark Knight was a tragedy. But now I realise (after watching Joker) it's just a f***in comedy. Seriously when I first watched it i thought it's realistic, but right now it looks like fantasy with so many inconsistencies like cell phone ringing in stomach and then the explosion blowed every cops except Joker who is standing like Superman, etc, etc. Joker is very simple, more personal, more powerful and much better. Bonus: Nobita or Kenichi >>> Marvel and DC
Not gonna lie it got me teary eyed. I just felt that and I’ve never seen River but the way he brought River’s name was like PTSD in his eyes. Joaquin deserves the love :)
I think his best speech is still SAG acceptance where he said these about Adam Driver "I’m just so moved by you. You were so devastating in this film (Marriage Story), and you should be here." Yes, it should have been Driver, everyone knows that including Phoenix.
Mr Blaze I thought Adam was amazing too. He is. But after watching Joker, it changed my mind. Joaquin deserved it more than any of the others who were nominated. His character has depth, he does not have to speak, yell or move to show his emotions. His facial expressions could tell it all. Marriage Story is mediocre at best if you compare it to Joker or Pain & Glory.
Stats for comic book movies ------ Highest Rotten Tomatoes score: Spider-Man Into The Spider-verse (97%) Highest metacritic score: Black Panther (88%) Most Oscars: Black Panther (3) Highest box office: Avengers Endgame Most popular character: Spider-Man & Batman Most psychologically complex character: Moon knight
I think Black Panther won more Oscars than entire Dark Knight Trilogy Also The Batman or MCU Daredevil is better than The Dark Knight trilogy and joker movies

He was so scared and holding back tears but no one can really imagine how it is to win an Oscar for best actor. That’s top tier right there. I would choke up too.
This man didn't spend a second talking about himself, but addressing everything wrong with the world. Such a selfless, inspiring speech and we all need to follow the example

Milk is not needed for our diet, not healthy and useless, therefor it’s pure animal abuse, and everyone is supporting it

I did and what makes me even more in awe is Leo was in the same club with River the night he passed, hoping to get a chance just to shake his hand. Sadly, he didn't get to meet his idol :(
Leo is a huge fan of River if you didn't know. There's a video somewhere where young Leo is putting on a cap saying ''I look like River!'' I think Leo seeing Joaquin winning that Oscar made him really happy. As another comment was saying, he did indeed see River the night he he passed away but never got to meet him. He said that River looked really pale and he tried following him but he lost him in the crowd. Also I just want to add another thing: River was actually meant to take Leo's biggest role as Jack in Titanic, or at least that's what James Cameron wanted. But sadly River passed away 3 years before the movie started filming, so Leo was the best 'replacement' for River. I recommend you go check out River because he was one talented guy! He'd be standing next to Joaquin today in terms of acting if he had continued with acting.
It's incredible he didn't have to read this off of a piece of paper. I'd vote for him if he ran for office, this guy has a good soul you can just feel it.
'You would not have the script on the night and that goes for everybody, there will be no scripts on the night! You learn the words!...' Umm, he's, like, literally an actor.
Ko204 was referring to my comment which I deleted. He is not saying Joaquin said it as joke. I previously said Spider-verse is only CBM to win Best Picture (animated).
I slightly agree, bro.. DiCaprio and Driver had some mild chances in light of their extraordinary performances, but Phoenix was a step forward (I guess). His performance was one of those that we see from time to time, y'know? Truly deserved!
The look on Keanu's face when he saw his late best friend's brother, and good friend Joaquin Phoenix give his speech, it's so heartwarming to see how genuinely happy he was for him.
Joaquin just gave one of the greatest performance afterall and is more genuine winner. I mean we all love to pretend that Heath Ledger deserves all awards but deep down we all know he won because of untimely death
Joaquin seems so down to earth, you can tell that he still has a hard time talking about his brother. the best thing is that not only did we get to see one Phoenix brother win an Oscar we got to see how acting has changed the life of this family.
Actually his performance is so amazing. It makes The Dark Knight in comparison looks funny. Everytime Christian Bale tries to be serious with his pathetic voice, I can't help but only laugh out loud.
@@lynxregions6724 Christian Bale is good overall. But in the Batman movie, he is terrible. Heath Ledger is really good but his character is one dimensional psychopath. On the other hand Joaquin has to show the build up from normal human to a clown prince and is much more complex character compared to Ledger's
@@loganshitsallbatmanmovies5465 why would you say such thing? Heath was one of the greatest actors ever and he won an Oscar after his death. Have some respect.

@@Ay3shizzle you're exactly right, we don't know that much about him, because he could be a completely nice guy in general its what the media think of him is which the annoying.

@@norm-bb3bb I have seen scenes of Black Panther. It doesn't come close to the previous Batman movies (the trilogy) and is far from being compared with Joker. The movie is litteraly a joke like most Marvel movies. ^^
Honestly, Joaquin has truly changed as a person over the years. He was on the verge of turning insane and his career was slowly declining. But he really has turned things around and you can tell that this entire speech is completely heartfelt and genuine. Truly inspiring.
jiji ribit malnourished? Does he looks perfectly healthy to me. Vegan diets can be a lot healthier than any diets with meat and dairy. Do some research.
@Tanmai, He wasn't on the verge of going insane, and if you're referring to his "break from acting", that was when he did his mockumentary pretending to become a rap artist.

@@lickenhuntsman5338 I completely disagree with that, this Joker faced up against any batman would be totally destroyed.

But he would be wrecked against any Batman. The movies Jokers are different I wouldn’t compare them and the universes built in them are different (Dark Knight does better).
I thought he was going off the rails and was about to become the next days laughter on all media outlets, but he actually turned in a thoughtful message that all should heed.

Joaquin did one of the bravest things an actor could do; disrupting your peers and risk being disliked by your peers by using your speech, which is typically all about yourself, to be something controversial about changing the world.
I thought The Dark Knight was a tragedy now I realise after watching Joker, it's just a mediocre comedy. Same goes for Heath Ledger's performance it's also mediocre after watching Joaquin's performance.
There’s a sound clip somewhere of him when he finds his brother ODed and he’s calling the cops freaking out. So sad. It definitely effected him thru his life.
When he owns it… I’ve been a scoundrel, selfish, cruel at times, hard to work with and ungrateful… that is… not commonly said on that stage. What a masterful speech.
The Joker is the second character ever to win the oscar twice being played by two different actors (Joaquin and Heath Ledger), the first one was Vito Corleone (played by Marlon Brando and Robert DeNiro), Joaquin should be proud.
I am not saying Heath is bad or overrated. But Academy would never give a shit about action or comedy film and he wouldn't have won if not for untimely death.
@@lickenhuntsman5338 we can't say for sure what would have happened if he was alive at the time but I still think he would've won, it really was a fantastic scene-stealing performance in a year with not that much competition
There should be a documentary made just about this speech. The Phoenixs are first generation Hollywood, they were poor, radical liberals and already vegan by the late 1970s, which was rare. If you ever happen to google early interviews with River as he broke through, and his family, you see he was the driving force for himself and his siblings becoming 'performers' to instigate social and environmental change. River wanted to write songs like John Lennon and be a musician with a message. The kids landed a talent agent and acting was where the money came from. As River developed a love of acting he realised he could utilise his fame for speaking out on causes he believed in (which is what he did consistanty) and use his money to fund environmental and community projects. He was the winner of one of PETAs first humanitarian of the year awards in 1990. The family have always used their famous surname to promote charities and causes. River continued making music, buying acres of first growth rainforrest and donating to social justice causes. For decades Joaquin has followed the same path, narrating environmental documentaries, serving on boards of charity organisations, using his name as a means to activism. The Phoenix family now run the River Phoenix Center for Peacebuilding, which focusses on restorative justice. Its so touching that Joaquin chose to come full circle by ending his recieving Hollywoods highest accolade (for which both he and River have previously been nominated) with a lyric written by a young River Phoenix, ensuring his message he carried from a little boy was shared with the largest platform imaginable.
Yep, it reminds me of my fathers brother (my uncle duh) who died in a motorcylce accident 15 years ago. My aunt in law still visits my grandma and celebrates christmas with us.
I'm not sure what video it is but i saw a woman talking about grief. She said that you can never move on and the grief never stops. You would forget that the person is gone for some time but the moment you remember again that he is gone, the grief comes back like it's just yesterday. And i fucking agree.
Mr Blaze I think it’s kind of unfair to compare joker to a movie like the avengers, joker is not really a comic book film just uses a character from a comic but like taxi driver and that other movie people compare it to, you don’t need a famous super villain to make the movie work whereas the avengers you need super heroes doing super things not just a policeman if that makes any sense. I probably didn’t explain very well
@sirdigbychickencaesar9482 because people like you. You have given up. I don't know your story and you may have plenty of reason to not have any hope. But the evil people in this world win when we feel the fight is hopeless. I am also guilty. I have no hope either. But it doesn't mean it is not true. It's just that not enough people are up for the fight. It's way easier to do wrong and we are a lazy selfish species that is destined to kill ourselves. But if we all stood up and actually cared enough about the human race then good would outweigh the evil, but it will never happen.
2016:Leonardo DiCaprio speaks of global warming in his first victory in 20 years. 2020:Joaquin Phoenix talks about animal welfare in his first victory in 20 years.
Licken Hunstman What makes you say they’re mediocre? If they were, how come they’ve been nominated many times over the years and then finally won an Oscar? We shouldn’t compare anyone to anyone, and we always should do our best to help and support each other, just like what Joaquin said in his speech. A-list actors are in their own class. DiCaprio, Bale, Phoenix and all other A-list actors are equally amazing, talented and unique in their own way. If you think they’re “mediocre” compared to Joaquin, that’s your opinion. But I encourage you to look up each of the “mediocre” actors’ performances that you’ve mentioned in a variety of movies in a variety of genres, and you’ll see how uniquely talented each of them are. E.g. DiCaprio in Basketball Diaries, or his role as Arnie Grape? Priceless. Raw acting right there. They’ve been in this industry for years, decades even. They’ve spent countless hours with so much blood, sweat and tears in their acting, molding, cultivating and making each of their character in each of their film come to life for our entertainment, that many of their movies reached international success and made global phenomenon time and time again, and their names will be remembered for generations to come. Not only did they win the Oscars, but DiCaprio voices his support for the environment, for the indigenous people and the voiceless people who have been drowned out by greed and politics, while Phoenix voices his support for animals’ welfare, how everyone deserves a second chance, and how we should do our best to help each other grow, instead of bringing each other down. That’s courage and bravery right there. They’re using their voice to support the common good, and they’re putting action behind it. Nothing about these guys are mediocre. These guys are all deserving of the Oscars from their longtime success and perseverance, to them using their voice as a platform for meaningful, relevant purpose, for a good cause and for the common good. Instead of comparing, we should be congratulating each and every one of them for a job well done. Hollywood is never the same without these guys, and we owe it to them for making such timeless, amazing contributions to the world, to the film industry, to the worldwide cultural phenomenon, and to humanity.
This is one of those Oscar speeches that will echo through centuries. Even when none of us would be alive to hear it. Most selfless speech and probably one of the greatest of all time. He didn’t fail to mention anyone. I sincerely hope that he gets another next year.

@@Wirralspotter They were two different Jokers, at different times in their criminal careers too, and both portrayed their individual Jokers the best way imaginable. Ledger's Joker was more calculating, more criminal, more mastermind. Someone who has been living and breathing anarchy for years and years. Phoenix' Joker was a broken man, spat on by society, dealing with some serious mental issues, pushed to breaking point. Ledger's Joker was part of an action movie, Phoenix' Joker is more of a character study.
Ledger's Joker was meant to be dangerous, unpredictable, scary. Phoenix' Joker is in my opinion more unsettling, uncomfortable (in the best way), and calls for far more sympathy because of how the movie is set up. And that brings me to the main point: Ledger's Joker was an antagonist in his movie (even though he was definitely its star), Phoenix' Joker is the protagonist of his movie, so the view is completely different.

Montravius Daniel Jared Leto was awful
Joaquin really didn’t give a single f. about the oscar, he just wanted to share his message.
Yea.. veganism....

Finally, the Oscar is yours!
I am grateful to Fox's Marvel Entertainment. If not for the success of Logan and Deadpool, WB might not have allowed to make Joker movie like it is now.
They both are better also better, can't deny that.

He really won everything during this award season.
I used to think The Dark Knight was a tragedy.
But now I realise (after watching Joker) it's just a f***in comedy.
Seriously when I first watched it i thought it's realistic, but right now it looks like fantasy with so many inconsistencies like cell phone ringing in stomach and then the explosion blowed every cops except Joker who is standing like Superman, etc, etc.

His voice while he's talking about River.
Not gonna lie it got me teary eyed. I just felt that and I’ve never seen River but the way he brought River’s name was like PTSD in his eyes. Joaquin deserves the love :)
I think his best speech is still SAG acceptance where he said these about Adam Driver
"I’m just so moved by you. You were so devastating in this film (Marriage Story), and you should be here."
Yes, it should have been Driver, everyone knows that including Phoenix.
@@desipop3654 Wrong, everyone knows Joaquin deserved the Oscar, the reason why he said that is because he's so humble and respect his fellow nominees.
Mr Blaze I thought Adam was amazing too. He is. But after watching Joker, it changed my mind. Joaquin deserved it more than any of the others who were nominated. His character has depth, he does not have to speak, yell or move to show his emotions. His facial expressions could tell it all. Marriage Story is mediocre at best if you compare it to Joker or Pain & Glory.

ua-cam.com/video/Zkjx2kCd6Zc/v-deo.html funny video. you wont regret watching it if you like dark humour and clowns. its not click bait !
Well, they are actors.
Leo is a huge fan of River if you didn't know. There's a video somewhere where young Leo is putting on a cap saying ''I look like River!'' I think Leo seeing Joaquin winning that Oscar made him really happy. As another comment was saying, he did indeed see River the night he he passed away but never got to meet him. He said that River looked really pale and he tried following him but he lost him in the crowd. Also I just want to add another thing: River was actually meant to take Leo's biggest role as Jack in Titanic, or at least that's what James Cameron wanted. But sadly River passed away 3 years before the movie started filming, so Leo was the best 'replacement' for River. I recommend you go check out River because he was one talented guy! He'd be standing next to Joaquin today in terms of acting if he had continued with acting.
It's incredible he didn't have to read this off of a piece of paper. I'd vote for him if he ran for office, this guy has a good soul you can just feel it.
'You would not have the script on the night and that goes for everybody, there will be no scripts on the night! You learn the words!...' Umm, he's, like, literally an actor.

@@RobbertOff that’s pretty good
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂 thought the same
💀
Joaquin did one of the bravest things an actor could do; disrupting your peers and risk being disliked by your peers by using your speech, which is typically all about yourself, to be something controversial about changing the world.
I agree with you though. His speech was something else. I never heard anything like that
@@leonapoli592 hope it made you think
Leo must’ve had a field day hearing that speech
@@Ennuibody He's had a lot of time to practice his craft, you will too.
The man is a fucking legend.
*man wins an Oscar.*
*"Alright,stop."*
I drew Joaquin Phoenix and I'd be very grateful if you could give it a like

Hey, that's not Joker's line, that's Rachel's...
@@vigokovacic3488 🌝😄
hahahah but he said "sup"
@@roronoazoro-136 exactly 😂😂😂
THE GREATEST OSCAR SPEECH EVER . PERIOD .
He is truly mentally ill, I wish him the best of luck.
@@justin9174he just has anxiety wtf?
@Ay3shizzle I didn't write that, LOL.
Keanu and Leonardo look so proud of him
They know each other so long time
I thought The Dark Knight was a tragedy now I realise after watching Joker, it's just a mediocre comedy.
Same goes for Heath Ledger's performance it's also mediocre after watching Joaquin's performance.
@@ashokkumarganesan3927 Go to sleep pal, You're drunk
@@ashokkumarganesan3927 both are great bro
@@ashokkumarganesan3927 Heath was a far better Joker. You're high.
His brother died at age 23, that's why he's so emotional if anyone else is wondering
he has horrendous social anxiety.
He was murdered*
slasher dasher it’s crazy you wouldn’t know it from his movies same with Johnny depp
@@bouchra77cool his brother wasn't murdered, he died from a drug overdose.
@@marisaa.tamayo yeah that's what media wants us to believe.
He gave a voice to the voiceless and a face to mental health in Joker. Bravo Joaquin! Well done.
child abuse, that's what it was about
@@wilpri What is wrong with you. His speech was about animal rights. And yes child abuse is a problem too, but gtfo. This has nothing to do with it 😭
Your comment 👌
Joaquin phoenix's joker is aimed at more mature audiences than ledger's joker
Bravo❤
You never know this might happen a second time especially seeing how phenomenal he is in the Joker 2 trailer.
Imagine if him and Gaga both won.
@@ryanbrets7695 I can imagine that
Did this NOT age well 💀
@@ivorojvar yeah I know it didn’t age well. I think Joaquin and Gaga both did great in the sequel it’s just that the sequel felt very unnecessary.
@@Ay3shizzle their acting was AMAZING but the movie wasn't
His shyness really shows that he is a different and unique kind of actor.
The hate on the comment section makes me sick
@@Ay3shizzle There are only three or four idiots spreading the hate
norm2014 I know but it’s these idiots that wanted him to win and now they’re unhappy? Wow
@@Ay3shizzle I don't think they wanted him to win, some of these idiots wanted Adam Driver to win
norm2014 wow. No offense to Adam Driver though
Audience: Claps
Joaquin: No
What an amazing guy
He’s so humble!
"wHaT a hErO"
Luis S. I know dude! Total legend!
LELFSKLDUFJEIFGSKWUDJS
Luis S. Right? He really is!
he was emotional and kept stuttering at the end because he was taking about his passed away brother 😔😔
There’s a sound clip somewhere of him when he finds his brother ODed and he’s calling the cops freaking out. So sad. It definitely effected him thru his life.
@@Ozzie-OH-OH WTF? It's so fucking disgusting there's an actual sound clip of such a private and painful momIent.
@@brunoe1891 I believe it’s the 911 call Joaquin made. It’s awful to hear.
:(
When he owns it… I’ve been a scoundrel, selfish, cruel at times, hard to work with and ungrateful… that is… not commonly said on that stage. What a masterful speech.
*Wins Oscar. Talks about Animal rights, Environment and humanity. That’s Joaquin Phoenix for you*
you wouldn't get it
stellar soul
*ricky gervais enters chat*
That reminds me of River. :(
@Billybob Ireland Excuse me?
The Joker is the second character ever to win the oscar twice being played by two different actors (Joaquin and Heath Ledger), the first one was Vito Corleone (played by Marlon Brando and Robert DeNiro), Joaquin should be proud.
I am not saying Heath is bad or overrated. But Academy would never give a shit about action or comedy film and he wouldn't have won if not for untimely death.
@@lickenhuntsman5338 we can't say for sure what would have happened if he was alive at the time but I still think he would've won, it really was a fantastic scene-stealing performance in a year with not that much competition
now it's coming Willem Dafoe haha!
namingisalwaysthehardestpart same character Vitor corleone ?
@@lickenhuntsman5338 f*ck you. It was not for his death. It was his legendary acting
Lol Joaquin is the only one who didn't smile when his name is in the final nominees... And he won lmao
Simple Man .he looks like a shy guy
He doesn't give a shit about the award.....he cares more about different things
He knows he will win the award so
also because he was stolen from many other oscar awards
He is natural and real
There should be a documentary made just about this speech. The Phoenixs are first generation Hollywood, they were poor, radical liberals and already vegan by the late 1970s, which was rare.
If you ever happen to google early interviews with River as he broke through, and his family, you see he was the driving force for himself and his siblings becoming 'performers' to instigate social and environmental change. River wanted to write songs like John Lennon and be a musician with a message. The kids landed a talent agent and acting was where the money came from. As River developed a love of acting he realised he could utilise his fame for speaking out on causes he believed in (which is what he did consistanty) and use his money to fund environmental and community projects. He was the winner of one of PETAs first humanitarian of the year awards in 1990. The family have always used their famous surname to promote charities and causes. River continued making music, buying acres of first growth rainforrest and donating to social justice causes. For decades Joaquin has followed the same path, narrating environmental documentaries, serving on boards of charity organisations, using his name as a means to activism.
The Phoenix family now run the River Phoenix Center for Peacebuilding, which focusses on restorative justice.
Its so touching that Joaquin chose to come full circle by ending his recieving Hollywoods highest accolade (for which both he and River have previously been nominated) with a lyric written by a young River Phoenix, ensuring his message he carried from a little boy was shared with the largest platform imaginable.
Everybody gangsta until he asks " How about another joke? "
Then you would hear a BOOM
Then drums start playing😂
AHAHHAHA GOOD ONE
Surprised no one joked about this
Spartial lets make it 1k
5:18 the way you can tell he never got over his brothers death is heartbreaking.
Yep, it reminds me of my fathers brother (my uncle duh) who died in a motorcylce accident 15 years ago. My aunt in law still visits my grandma and celebrates christmas with us.
No one can forget a death like that i know i wouldn't.
I'm not sure what video it is but i saw a woman talking about grief. She said that you can never move on and the grief never stops. You would forget that the person is gone for some time but the moment you remember again that he is gone, the grief comes back like it's just yesterday. And i fucking agree.
balboa82 I know, And I don’t except him to ever get over what happened but for it to hurt so much you can’t even speak is heartbreaking.
He literally held Rivers in his arms as he died. it blatantly traumatized Joaquin
Joaquin Phoenix and Keanu Reeves are so humble, an example of how a human being should be, I love them and I wish them the best.
and River Phoenix 💛
and Bong joon ho ' Parasite '
@@sarahkirstine4434 Why did you delete your comment? Don't do it
No they arent examples idiot
You don't know them. They could torture small animals in their spare time and you wouldn't know.
Joaquín still has a hard time talking about his brother River... two gifts of life.
Should've introduced him as Joker
As he requested
Mr Blaze I think it’s kind of unfair to compare joker to a movie like the avengers, joker is not really a comic book film just uses a character from a comic but like taxi driver and that other movie people compare it to, you don’t need a famous super villain to make the movie work whereas the avengers you need super heroes doing super things not just a policeman if that makes any sense. I probably didn’t explain very well
@@desipop3654 wtf, the comment is not even about that lol
@@desipop3654 what that has to do with the main comment?
She introduced him as a Joker:
And the Oscar goes to Joaquin Phoenix Joker.
Mr Blaze Marvel has the 3 Black Panther awards and fox got a nom for Logan (Which is better than Joker.)
I love seeing keanu reeves so excited for Joaquin. Thats exactly how I felt
ua-cam.com/video/Zkjx2kCd6Zc/v-deo.html funny video. you wont regret watching it if you like dark humor and clowns. its not click bait !
same & probably because joaquins brother river was best friends w keanu
I think his dead brother was Keanu's best friend. He would be so proud too
These guys are a rare breed. Wish River was here.
Keanu Reeves was so cute! 1:30 I love his smile.
"Run to the rescue with love and peace will follow." Wow. What a beautiful quote.
Very beautiful indeed! River was only 17 years old when he wrote that!? Im very impressed how a young kid can be so wise . R.i.p river Phoenix
Rip river
River was really wise for his age ❤❤❤
Nice quote, but it's not true.
@sirdigbychickencaesar9482 because people like you. You have given up. I don't know your story and you may have plenty of reason to not have any hope. But the evil people in this world win when we feel the fight is hopeless. I am also guilty. I have no hope either. But it doesn't mean it is not true. It's just that not enough people are up for the fight. It's way easier to do wrong and we are a lazy selfish species that is destined to kill ourselves. But if we all stood up and actually cared enough about the human race then good would outweigh the evil, but it will never happen.
Oh how I would have loved to seen River progress in his career. Joaquin he is smiling on you and he could not have done a better job.
2016:Leonardo DiCaprio speaks of global warming in his first victory in 20 years.
2020:Joaquin Phoenix talks about animal welfare in his first victory in 20 years.
Joaquin Phoenix > Christian Bale and DiCaprio.
Phoenix is not the kind of guy who hides his mediocre acting using weight loss/gain gimmick.
@@lickenhuntsman5338 in fact,Joaquin lost 14 kg for the role of Joker, given that he is already a vegan.
@The Abcool I love tom cruise so much but bale and Leo are something else
Licken Hunstman What makes you say they’re mediocre? If they were, how come they’ve been nominated many times over the years and then finally won an Oscar?
We shouldn’t compare anyone to anyone, and we always should do our best to help and support each other, just like what Joaquin said in his speech. A-list actors are in their own class. DiCaprio, Bale, Phoenix and all other A-list actors are equally amazing, talented and unique in their own way. If you think they’re “mediocre” compared to Joaquin, that’s your opinion. But I encourage you to look up each of the “mediocre” actors’ performances that you’ve mentioned in a variety of movies in a variety of genres, and you’ll see how uniquely talented each of them are. E.g. DiCaprio in Basketball Diaries, or his role as Arnie Grape? Priceless. Raw acting right there. They’ve been in this industry for years, decades even. They’ve spent countless hours with so much blood, sweat and tears in their acting, molding, cultivating and making each of their character in each of their film come to life for our entertainment, that many of their movies reached international success and made global phenomenon time and time again, and their names will be remembered for generations to come.
Not only did they win the Oscars, but DiCaprio voices his support for the environment, for the indigenous people and the voiceless people who have been drowned out by greed and politics, while Phoenix voices his support for animals’ welfare, how everyone deserves a second chance, and how we should do our best to help each other grow, instead of bringing each other down. That’s courage and bravery right there. They’re using their voice to support the common good, and they’re putting action behind it.
Nothing about these guys are mediocre. These guys are all deserving of the Oscars from their longtime success and perseverance, to them using their voice as a platform for meaningful, relevant purpose, for a good cause and for the common good. Instead of comparing, we should be congratulating each and every one of them for a job well done. Hollywood is never the same without these guys, and we owe it to them for making such timeless, amazing contributions to the world, to the film industry, to the worldwide cultural phenomenon, and to humanity.
@@blaircomptons148 agree with everything you said.
I am just not a big fan of Bale.
Yeah, we shouldn't make comparisons.
Plot Twist: Joker is playing Joaquin Phoenix at the Oscars
He was better than ledger
Anuvhab Basu i say both were good but Joaquin was a little bit better
zeeshan mohamed Want another joke Olivia?
bzwaqah Sure
Anuvhab Basu calm down on that they both were good.
This is one of those Oscar speeches that will echo through centuries. Even when none of us would be alive to hear it. Most selfless speech and probably one of the greatest of all time. He didn’t fail to mention anyone. I sincerely hope that he gets another next year.
