Mickey Rourke Was Robbed

No Oscar for Mickey, what a travesty! Although, maybe this means there is a slight chance he will wrestle in Wrestlemania 25, oh yeah!

Here is Mickey accepting the Independent Spirit Award, there is no way he could have topped this speech at the Oscars.

Chris Jericho Vs. Mickey Rourke

Mickey Rourke's "cool guy" persona doesn't quite work against wrestler bravado.

I finally watched The Wrestler and it lived up to the hype. Mickey Rourke's performance was amazing. Direct quote from the old ball and chain, "I feel like we are watching a documentary." How can Mickey possibly ride this wave of praise to a career rebirth? Yup, competing in Wrestlemania 25 is probably the best way. The fact that Mickey Rourke is appearing in a WWE event just makes him more amazing cause he does not give a fuck. I hope the jerk-offs voting don't take this as an uncouth move which NYMag seems to think it is.

If someone asked me who would be directing Mikey Rourke in a movie called The Wrestler, the second to last person I would name is Darren Aronofsky (director of Requiem for a Dream and The Fountain.) The last person would probably be Woody Allen because Scarlett Johansson couldn't play a wrestler unless it was the life story of The Fabulous Moolah.
