Appreciating the nominees one by one. Humbling himself to recognize the actor who previously did his character. That would be the most genuine and epic acceptance speech in recent memory.

[@eLmasten1991]

Almost every other Actor will go up there and speak about themself, God and their family. Joaquin doesn't thank anyone at his table when he stands up, he goes up and talks about other actors and then leaves. He doesn't talk about himself or anything. What a legend. So humble.

[@rachelgreen669]

There's something about him that very few actors have. I don't know how to put it in words, because maybe there are no words. It's a feeling. He touches your soul.

Talk about himself: he feels completely uncomfortable, serious, starts balancing, moving and touching his face, stutters and immediately change the topic. Talk about others: he feels completely comfortable, liberated, fluent in his speech, and even smiles and laugh. What a genuine human being.

[@andiem00n]

Joaquin as humble as ever. I've never heard a speech like that before. Talking about the greatness of others shows your greatness. You gotta love this guy for who he is and what he does. His role as the Joker moved me so much and in my opinion he deserves all of the awards he's getting. Phenomenal.

The only thing he said about himself was his homage to Ledger. But that's not the reason he deserves the Oscar. He only solidified his chances with this speech. The man was BRILLIANT in Joker. He went places many cannot go and he put the audience right there with him. I felt his pain. I felt his sadness. I see it in the many people today that have disabilities and mental illness. I have a son with Autism and I've seen how bad it can get and how beautiful it really can be. Thank you Joaquin for Joker, you did more than portray a psychotic clown, you showed the world that mental illness is real and you showed how real it is. God Bless.

I'm not sure if it's dawned on anyone but all the roles his fellow nominees have been nominated for Joaquin has done all those types of roles. His Once Upon A Time is Inherent Vice. His Marriage Story is Her. His Rocketman is Walk The Line. His Ford v Ferrari is Gladiator or We Own The Night. He literally has played every role you can think of and then some. He now can add Joker to the list which was also played and won by his favorite actor Heath Ledger. What makes him even more amazing is he doesn't even see is own greatness. He just does the work and creates magic.
