I think it was spot on to end with Ledger. It affected a lot of people when he passed away so suddenly. His death was a huge story for quite awhile. I found it nice that they just showed shots of him in Brokeback. (But there were indeed other films he was in...)

Those Brokeback shots were the most "relevant" to a In Memoriam tribute.
Can you image them ending with a Cassanova sweep where he looked happy? Oh the horror.

Or Brother's Grimm, maybe?

And the charming "mystery" guest at last night's Gay Super Bowl Party nearly did herself out of her FIRST DISNEYLAND VISIT by categorizing Heath's demise as Death By Stupidity.

Not the right crowd for that remark ... according to the Gays at the Gay Super Bowl Party.

I drink your Milkshake!...I drink it up!!!!...

As was mentioned last night ... and I've posted somewhere's else on the LoT ... the now-infamous Milkshake line is taken from actual history ... Congressional hearings on the subject of Oil, oil, er, uh, milkshaking.

Truth is often stranger than fiction. So when something seems like it must have been made up, it's more'n likely it was too outrageous to have been made up.

Since it'll be months till I see the pic - someone want to explain the "milk shake" reference to me?

innerSpaceman · 02-25-2008, 08:17 PM

It's the climactic scene of one of the year's best pictures, maybe one of the best pictures ever.

Sure you want the ending spoiled?

Sohrshah · 02-25-2008, 08:18 PM

Yeah. I keep getting those lyrics stuck in my head. You know the ones I'm talking about.

€uroMeinke · 02-25-2008, 08:20 PM

well, I guess I already know it's a closing line so the significance will be revealed to me before that moment unless it's a grand surrealist nonsequetor, in which case I'll be waiting for that
