Michael Caine says Heath Ledger will get a posthumous Oscar nod
Published 7/13/2008 by Roberta at In Case You Didn't Know
... for next year’s Academy Awards - which will take place shortly after the first anniversary of his death.
And Caine is sure he’ll get a mention. Speaking on Friday as he unveiled his hand and footprints outside the famous Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, the 75-year-old says, “I think he’ll get a posthumous Oscar nomination at least. I just watched him and talked to him for three days and I thought he was extraordinary.”

Reuters - Actor Heath Ledger won rave reviews from Australian critics on Friday for his final performance as the Joker in the new Batman movie, fuelling speculation of a rare posthumous Oscar.
Surely,he deserves an Oscar nomination for playing the Joker. In the trailers aired these days you can definitely see his intense role preparation for the part of the psychotic and lunatic character of the menacing Joker coming across so convincingly...and for a moment you will never believe that this performance is (was) from a 28 year old actor!!
For more insights on why he must be given an Oscar nomination (and I'd be happy still if he gets the Oscar too!!) visit the site:
