BATMAN BEATS OUT CHRISTMAS SPECIAL, AGAIN!!!
It seems the late Keith Ledger won an Oscar for best actor for his portrayal of the Joker in the latest Batman movie. Keith won this Oscar posthumously (that means he died before he picked up his statue). This brings to mind the terrible injustice done to the late actor Jim Varney who should have received the best actor Oscar award for what is truly the greatest movie ever made “Earnest Saves Christmas”. This masterpiece of a motion picture has never gotten the critical acclaim it deserved. The only reason this picture and its actors, director, writers etc. did not win Oscars, is because “Earnest Saves Christmas” was a docudrama, based on actual events.
The movie was great and the event it documented, the saving of Christmas, was so very important that it is too bad it has been forgotten. If Earnest hadn’t saved Christmas, just ponder on what the heck we would do every December 25th when all those obnoxious relatives show up on the door step. An Easter egg hunt has already been taken. Halloween has the dress-up holiday pretty much locked up and Thanks Giving has the pig out and watch football day sewn up. Setting off fire crackers, 4th of July. Getting loaded and passing out on the bathroom floor, New Years Eve. The only holiday fun left to entertain those relatives is passing out presents.
